"It should be a very good time to talk about anything important in your relationships. Don't be afraid to bring things up today that you might normally be a little reluctant to discuss. Now is the time to get things out into the open, but just remember to listen as well as talk.
You should have the capacity for having a really good time with your partner right now. And this should help you to clear up any lingering issues that might exist between the two of you. "
Two for two on the zero stars for my horoscope. Today was again not relateable to my life or day at all. Unless there are secret and lingering issues I am not aware of but hubby is usually pretty straight forward -if it bugs him I know about it.
Today was just another day of errands and chores that needed to be done and I didn't really get to spend much time with my hubby at all.
I have been online today searching for answers to my SAG questions. My son just received his letter from SAG stating he is now eligible for his SAG card after he pays the initiation fee.
Since he is only seven years old it should probably have been addressed to me and his father since the ultimate output of money for his SAG card will have to come through us.
A rather large monetary output I might add. It is be no means cheap to be a SAG member.
So at this point we are questioning if it is really the right time in his career to invest such a large sum of money on the off chance that he could get a union job that would make it worth it.
I tend to think this is the time to take the plunge -still I understand my husband's reluctance to do so just yet.
It seems lately there has been a lot more outpour of cash than in. My son and I also had to go and get our passports ordered today, again just on the off chance that he gets a job out of the country he has to be prepared or no agent will even look at him.
We also did some returns to Target, which actually turned out to be relatively easy, and used the gift card given to us to buy dad a surprise DVD - he was very grateful and happy that we did something so thoughtful.
I also downloaded another chapter of my story "Picture Perfect" to Fanfiction.net.
I like their site because they make it relatively easy for readers to reveiw and reviews are always fun to get and often times can help to turn a story a different direction.
A good surprise today was another episode of "Quarterlife" got posted to "You Tube"...I am addicted. I was like a drug addict getting their fix as I watched it twice just to make sure I didn't miss anything - very scary.
I finally got the opportunity today before dinner to talk to my sister who has started back to work - she's very happy and I kind of envy her that she was able to find another job that fits her likes and needs so quickly.
I really want to have my own income coming in again so I can feel like I am contributing to the family in more ways than just taking care of them, but I need it to fit into this specific niche and that it making it hard to even know where to look for it.
I'm just kind of riding out the storm right now but I have faith that God has an open door waiting for me sometime in the near future.
Not much else to add tonight so I will "peace out" here and head to bed.

A List is a Beautiful Thing
As promised here is today's horoscope...
Wednesday, Jan 2, 2008 : "You could be feeling a little defensive right now and you might feel like you need to defend your point of view more fervently than is really necessary today. So just try not to let things get too out of hand if you can help it right now. And financial issues will probably be one of your primary areas of concern today.
There could be some disputes with your partner over money matters and you might feel like you’re being taken advantage of in some way. The problem is that neither of you may be terribly inclined to want to back down at the moment. "
This would be a one star, waste of ink and paper rating. Absolutely nothing about today's horoscope rings true or even close to the truth.
Today was a day of errands and responsibilities, yes i did look on the internet for a job, but taking care of my son on his winter break and making sure to put some wheels in motion were my main focus today.
I did fill in the google calander as promised to myself and in a tribute to my husband I had a "to do list" which, I must admit, did make things go a lot more smoothly.
Even when we ran into bumps, such as every triple load washer at the laundromat being mysteriously out of order, thus making washing and drying our comforter a much bigger task than expected, we still managed to forge ahead and complete the list ( new insight for me a double load works just as well and is a whole dollar cheaper).
We hit the bank and closed out the savings account, sent off the tutition for my son's acting class coming up in March, which he is very excited about, got his bike tire fixed so he can hit the park with dad this weekend, had some lunch and rounded out the day with grocery shopping.
It was a very full and fun day with an intelligent but goofy 7 year old along for the ride. I really will miss his company next week when he heads back to school and higher learning.
Good points of this little winter break though have been weaning down his video game time. Whatever school teaches him I know I've taught him that anything over 2 hours is excessive and even that is pushing it.
It's great to be unconditionally loved by your child and I know it's only a matter of a few years before that changes so I'm very thankful to have been given this small window of opportunity to spend time with him while he's still young enough to appreciate having me there.
A little side note -hubby may have found me a job in a computer firm as a bookkeeper, not sure how I feel about that. I do appreciate his efforts but also find it odd that he really thinks I'm bookkeeper material.
Still he kept my lists of needs and wants in mind when discussing the position with my potential employer and it sounds like he is amiable and flexible to the quick get up and go of my son's acting and modeling jobs.
You really do have to drop everything at the drop of the hat when the agent calls. I guess it's why I was never really a fan of the to do list, because it always gets thrown right out the window when a job opportunity is presented to our son. - still I like the organization when I can have it, so I will be sticking with it.
My new guilty pleasure of 2008 is the television show "Gossip Girl" - I haven't been this enamored of a show since "Felicity." It's got all the right elements to keep me watching and waiting for the next episode.
My new guilty internet show is "Quarterlife" - I am smitten with the unrequited feelings that Dylan is harboring for Jed, and i love, love, love the Jed character, he's very appealing and endearing.
Well it's late so I'm out-take care and have a good night.
