I was awake before daybreak today, as is common for me. Especially when the sun doesn’t come up until 6 or 7. I did my meditation. I listened to some music, more Leonard Cohen. What an amazing poet. I really only knew Hallelujah, and “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in” about him. The quote is also found in Rumi. I love Rumi too. Happy to have a new artist to listen to. That’s the silver lining to not having listened to him before is that now it’s all new and beautiful to me.
Today is kind of a lay day. I have to go to my sisters and do laundry. Today is the only day I have until the weekend, and I don’t want to wait that long. Hopefully I’ll have my washer/dryer by the next time I need to do it. I was going to order it last night but the order form showed Monday as a delivery date and I won’t be around Monday, and not much of next week to be honest. I need to call them and ask about scheduling.
I’ll be staying at my sisters a lot next week as we prepare TG dinner. I’m pretty excited to be spending the holiday with her. I’ve only spent it with my ex’s family, or just my ex and my son, and then just my son forever. It was always too short a time and to expensive to travel for it. I so love having her close by.
Of course, today the sun is out, and the sky is clear, now that the supermoon is over. My crystals sat in the moonlight all night, and so, should be recharged. I think I am too, recharged. I was subdued last night. Emotions were kind of melancholy, but not really sad. I slept well, I guess that’s about all I can ask for when I feel like that. Today is a new day, a new opportunity to move forward, to be happy, to love. I’ll surrender, again, and see what the universe will bring my way.
Love and light, all.

The moon seemed even clearing with Super Moon, what a few thousand miles can do… You are an awake soul…
You’re lucky, you got to see it. Still a bit cloudy this morning. A cold front. Gonna get down to 70. Lol.
I’m milk chocolate I melt at 70
Very cool for me at 70. I like 85 or so.
LOL. I was going to ask you what TG was. DUH! Guess you can tell it means nothing to me anymore.
Leonard Cohen. What a prolific songwriter. My Ipod is FULL of his songs. Did you know that many television shows use his songs on them? One I discovered was on Criminal Minds. It’s so haunting. It’s called “night comes on.”
I am very late to him. I was listening to him this morning for about an hour I think. Amazing man. I’ll have to check that song out.
That song about “there’s a crack in everything”….I was telling Loser about the lyrics and when I said that line, he immediately thought I was subtly attacking him. He didn’t even let me get the next line out about “that’s how the light gets in.”
Hallelujah is probably my favorite!
I think that’s everyone’s. But I do love this one. A contestant sang it on The Voice last night. It brought me to tears. She was the last one for the night. Everyone was standing up by the end. It was incredible. I immediately went to iTunes and put his version on my phone.
We love a lot of the same music! First Nessus Dorma, now this! Lol.
Which once? The crack?
No this one I posted. “Did I ever love you”
I’d never heard that one. I would have thought you’d opt for “I’m your man.” LOL
I like that but not quite as much. At least not at the moment.
He should have written one titled “did I hate you?” LOLOL
Lol!!
