My horoscope and then some!

If only all horoscopes were as helpful as this...

It's a great day to sit down and make a list of all those things that you do well. Consider this exercise as a way of taking a personal inventory. But to be completely honest, you must also include those things you want to improve about yourself. There is no need to be overly harsh in your judgment about your shortcomings. Don't try to change everything at once; just pick one or two things and then try to make them better.

Go on and try it - you know you wanna!


Anyways, the car seems to maybe slowly getting resolved. At least I have a mechanic and a time to pick up the loaner car - Friday, in Vancouver, but it's something, at least. They're closed the weekend, so I figure it'll be at least a week and a half, which will take me to the time we're done camping, so I should be able to go camping and enjoy it. I'll have to be more vigilant about carrying my phone with me, which sucks, but at least we can go. So now I can put those plans in motion. I'm not sure how the week will unfold and what time we'll head out on Sunday, but it gets dark late, so we should be able to get the tent up even if we leave in the afternoon. the rest is gravy.

I'm still worries about the Toyota thing, and how much we'll have to pay for it all, plus the ferry trips and the rental thus far, which is only partially covered. But it's only money (thank goodness for Rob's writing!) and no one was hurt, just shook up a whole lot. I have a lot of to-do's to figure out on top of the ones I've already made lists of, but the important stuff will get done and the rest...won't. C'est la vie!

Went to choir tonight and it was good. It was a lot of work for a drop-in, mostly spirituals Denis worked on during his workshop last week (one day I'll go - hopefully it won't always coincide with camp). But good to be back, singing. I'll miss the next 2 weeks, but for camping, so it'll be good. Luminara is this week too, but I managed to get us into a lantern workshop at the last minute (for tomorrow), so we don't need to worry about making lanterns before it happens. though I might bring lantern stuff camping and we can make some there and have our own little parade of lights one night. I'm going to skip the fancy pirate costume - did i already say that this week? I wish I could make it, but I want to make a nice, fitted (ie wench-like) laced bodice and I don't want to rush it. Plus if I loose a bit (a lot!) of weight it'll look better...shame to put in a lot of work and have it not fit.

So I don't need to worry about Luminara much - find the parts of Xander's pirate costume, organize my wings and urban fairy outfit - maybe if I'm inspired make a quick mask that'll fit over glasses...otherwise no mask and that's okay too.

Costume for Xander's Harry Potter stuff is a must, but I think it'll be pretty easy. We do need a new broom and golden snitch, since the dog ate the old ones, and I need to re-do a Quidditch sweater that fits, but the robes stuff fit, and the pads are good. That's for Friday night. I don't know if I'll bother dressing up - the concept is good but the timing isn't great. Dress-ups 2 nights in a row - unheard of!

Anyways, it'll all get sorted out. Tomorrow is garbage day and I have pet cages that need cleaning and the fridge to go through and so on, so I'm off to get busy.

More as I figure it out!
