The weather is beautiful.  Yesterday I spent 4 hours putting in succulent cuttings in front my house by the sidewalk--and setting 5 rocks into the ground.  Lots of work, but entirely satisfying.  Being outside gave me the chance to talk to two of my neighbors--one is a young mother who is in school and wondering how to make her schedule work.  She came over to me to say hi, but went away thinking about "what would make her more peaceful."  Jody shared how her car got bashed in on the street the other night.  We talked about her new "on-demand" hot water heat that is like the one I had installed.  I don't think I applied for an energy credit though.  Oh well. I can't think of everything.

Two Japanese friends are arriving tomorrow, so we are planning to take them shopping and up to Napa Valley for some wine tasting.  The Japanese numerology charts are coming along, and Fumiko and Robert and I are working on getting the program to work.  It's very complicated!  Only Robert could figure this all out.  The new Chart Summaries are in place in the English version, and I'm so excited at the way they turned out.  So easy to see elements of life purpose and life lessons now. 

 EK and I will take a hot tub tonight and relax and catch up on our news.

It's interesting to watch the mind each day and see what it is that you're afraid of.
