update

So my cat's been super clingy since I've been away.  She's looking extra beautiful these days with her Fall hair all grown in. She's plump and fluffy. But she won't leave me alone. She has to sit on me or next to me or at my feet or however she can manage to get up to me. I guess we tend to forget the central role we play in our pets' lives.

In other news my 500 dollar vacuum arrived. It's really much more muscular than the 150 dollar version. And it comes with a lot more bells and whistles. So many attachments that I need a graduate smeniar in how to use them all. I want to change out the rug in my living room but with all my firniture this is quite a chore. We'll see.

I'm winning the battle with the Dark Lady Diet Shasta, at least today. Although right now, just this second, a tall cold one sounds just perfect.

I got a really nice letter from my old life coach giving me a pep talk about living the Question: What If? Instead of the Mantra: If only... I need to think about this again. It really helped me before to reorient my view of my work. What if people really need my view on the world? What if I really do lead a magnificent life?

I do lead a magnificent life. I can do what I want. I just don't know what I want!!!
