Picture courtesy via google images The Eleventh House

Last night I found myself in the library, holding Saturn. Soon everyone in the place was tossing it around like that balloon game where the goal is to constantly keep it in the air without it ever touching the ground. There were many people in the room. Some from past that I had not seen in many years, some from present day. I left  the library and ventured on my way. In one dream I can go to many places. When I woke up this morning I realized I had been on quite a journey. Also I had learned quite a bit. After all I had been in the library, a great place to acquire knowledge don't you think? I  believe I need to sit down, take a breath and realize that  the universe is not necessarily throwing a bunch of balls at me. I am not a juggler, just one of many trying to keep things afloat.

Dear Daddy,

Yesterday, I walked out the store and glanced up at the sky.There was the biggest, most beautiful, double rainbow I have ever seen in my entire life. The first words out of my mouth were:
"It is as if as God has come to greet us"
It is my wish that you will be one of the first to greet me when my journey on this earth ends, For now, I hope that you are celebrating your birthday In Heaven. I am so grateful
for the day that you were born.
How blessed I am to be your daughter. Have a slice of coconut cake, and take a drive on your Harley (Surely you must have one by now..lol) Also don 't forget to give  "Baby Brat"
 (Lil' Sissy) a twirl or two on the dance floor.
 As much as you want to, please  DO NOT cut the grass, chain saw trees, or fix something.
It is  your Birthday. 
Relax and enjoy it.
I am sure that you have earned  more than a day, a week, a year, etc... off.
I love and miss you more than words can say.
Daddy's girls are Daddy's girls FOREVER!
XOXOXO
Love,
"Big Sissy"
