6-3-11 The Path Before Me





I want to be where
your bare foot walks,
because maybe before you step,
you will look at the ground.
I want that blessing.

6-3-11   The Path Before Me


This week has been all about setting off on a new path......

Well the first party in my new home was quite a success! It was small, 20 or 25 only but we did all so very much enjoy the day, despite the heat and the mosquitos in my back yard (we spent a lot of time insiden with my lovely central AC that I always wanted) haha. We started the day by going down to see the parade in town and then we took a walk along the water and looked at the boats, everyone loves my new little town. A couple people went up to Jeremy and told him they read my blog and were proud of him for telling off Randy. I suppose I am proud of him too for looking out for me and being strong when I was weak and making too many excuses. That's what family is all about, holding each other up when the other needs it. This is the kind of stuff that Randy knows nothing about, it's not his fault, he just wasn't taught. and the fact that he prefers to play with the boys instead of come home to dinner with someone who loves him also is not his fault, its the way he was raised. What is his fault is leading woman after woman after woman down the path to belive that he really wanted a real relationship with them. Then again I suppose he *thinks* he wants that and he hasn't yet examined his own actions and seen that he never does what he says he wants, not fully anyway. But anyway the party was great and they even asked me to bring out my box of SpiritStones and two people bought some and I put special intentions in them for thier current needs.

Tuesday I woke up bright and early and rushed out the door because it's was first day back to work and I had to take Jeremy and Mike back to Flemington before going to work. I left at 6:30 am and the drive time to the office was 35 minutes, only 10 more than from Flemington! Woo hoo! However....I left work at 5pm and did not get home till 6:30 pm! UGH! But I managed to not get too upset and I spent the time stuck in traffic to pray for the area and the people on the roads and I tossed out a SpiritStone or two to bless the area with good energy. The house seemed lonely with out all the people but I also relished the quiet. I just felt a tiny bit sad for having moved all the way down there and part of the hope in that was thinking I would be heading towards having a life partner. In a way though I felt it was because God still had more work for me to do that I wouldnt give enough attention to and then as if to confirm it my cousins son who is about 12 or so posted on facebook: if you are still SINGLE. it is because GOD isn`t ready to share you yet. I am kinda annoyed with God about this one, makes me feel like I want to be stubborn and not do anything to help anyone anymore....but of course that's not who I am at all...

Wednesday I got up and left about 7am, that took me 45 minutes to get to work so I made a note to set the alarm earlier. I left at 4:30 instead of 5pm but still took 1.5 hrs to get home, I just hit traffic back ups closer to home instead of right out of work. I set the alarm earlier that night... I also showed the room to someone and he decided that he liked it and wanted to move in the next week, I told him that I can not hold the room for him once he pays it's his so he called back later and said he would be by on friday to pay. I paid some bills and wasn't out of money and feeling a little better about finances. I was low on cash but I had a check Ralph had sent me as a donation for helping to promote his events, and then I got a check from google ads! Seems like I am now making $20 a month from my ad clicks instead of the 50 cents I had been! I posted my singles event for the 18th at The Sports Zone around some more too, I really need to do well with that one.

Thursday I got up and left by 6:45 and got to work early enough that I could leave at 4pm.. well more like 4:10 because I got to yapping to someone but that was only a 45 min ride , I was near home before 5pm. Looks like I am getting my time down, thank God for a flexible work schedule! I was much happier too because friday's I work from home so I decided to scope out the exact location of the bank so that I could run out at my lunch break to cash my check. I found the bank and OMG it was still open! At 5pm! The ones near work close at 4 on week days and noon on saturdays. This one stays open till 7 pm! and till 4pm on saturdays! Wow! That was worth a few more commute minutes in itself! I went home all happy and was moving stuff out of the room for Suresh and I took a look at the pile to have a yard sale and felt inspired to freecycle it all. Its more blessed to give and I know people would love that stuff.

Friday I got up and tried to connect my work lap top to the wi-fi, that turned out to be a very long ordeal, and I ended up having to work till 7pm to make up the time, but it had to be done sometime and now I am good to go. Someone else called about the apartment and came to see it, she is a woman in her mid 50's and seemed very nice and very in need. When she asked me if I would take a bit less on the rent I faltered though, but then she said she would do work for the extra bit and I recalled how Mary had told me that someone would come and would do yard work and such for a break on the rent. So I told her that I would take off $25 a week since that is what the lawn mowing guy charges (he had come to the door earlier that day but I told him I would do it myself). She said let me look at the other places and can I come back later and pay if I want it? Sure I said I am working home all day I will be here. Suresh then came in the early afternoon and paid me for a month in advance and got his key and said he would be moving stuff in but not sleeping here till the 11th. I went to shake his hand and he hugged me! LOL  Marie then called and said she was coming back with money and wanted to move in the next day..so there I had to clean  out the boxes from her room too! She only had enough for one week so I gave her the this is my grocery money my gas money I have to use credit cards if you don't pay me in time... I showed her the yard, the mower and the seeds and flowers I want planted and told her to not push too hard, two or three hours a week is enough to make up the difference and she said oh I want to do this I love it. She then hugged me too before she left and I have a very good feeling about my two new roomates!

In the evening I was relaxing and checking my facebook and a friend had posted looking for something fun to do and I posted the Red Bank River Fest event for her and a guy posted saying wow thats 15 min from me, turns out he lives in Cliffwood Beach also so I friended him, he accepted and said hey are you the Cassie who had those awesome BBQ's I used to come to? YES that's me I wrote back and we yapped a bit, turns out he lives around the corner from Randy. I told him to stop over sometime, we made plans to meet at a bar in town so he could introduce me around (he told me which is the best one to go hang at) and I also promised to invite him to my 4th of July BBQ. I am just so excited about my new home, my new town, my new path....even if, at least for now, I still walk alone.....

Today I want you to look at the path before you, we are moving into a new cycle of change and things are going to be different we just passed through a new moon and a partial solar eclipse that initiated a sequence, on the 15th we will have another full moon total lunar eclipse, then the soltice and another new moon partial solar eclipse. The path before you will be full of changes and energies, some pleasant and some not so pleasant but most of all this month is a month to move forward and get things done........ Are you ready to go foward or are you going to have to be pushed? A new path is here, how you chose to travel it is up to you..........

With Love and In The Light, Cassie
