It was not long before the trees outside the bedroom were filled with cardinals. I'm a libra, my bird is the cardinal. Cardinals represent change, a change in life or some kind of turning point, and they are birds of strength. I was happy to have cardinals surrounding me, but wondered what else would the day bring? Would I have ladybugs too? Would I feel Rich in the house? What?
Once the sun got to a blinding point above the trees I decided to get up and make breakfast. It didn't take long to find my next good luck sign. There was a ladybug in the kitchen. I went about my morning baking biscuits and making the rest of breakfast. Went about the rest of the day getting things in order, laundry, the chickens, this, that, and all the what-nots. I went into what Jeff calls my "conference mode."
At some point in the afternoon Jeff makes me take a break for a while. And there was sign number three. A very large, very bright yellow, tiger swallow tail butterfly. The ones Rich loved. Once the butterfly fluttered off it was time to get back to work.
Jeff's brother Justin came down and at some point in time I managed to get dinner fixed, and my bag packed. I really enjoyed chatting for a while with Debby and Doug when I went over to take her doggie sitting info. I was a little disappointed didn't get to bake a cake for Jeff, but when I finally got around to that point it was just too late. And even though it felt like it was much later, some how I managed to crawl into bed around 10:30 pm or so. Which was good because I had to be at the hospital by 6:30am, which meant we needed to leave the house no later than 5:30am so we'd need to get up around 4am...ugh.
