Last night, though there was cloud cover, the first full moon rose over the Bluff City. I've always loved been one of the "crazies" who gets into the hype surrounding full moons. I'm a Cancer in the zodiac and my personality is said to be linked to the cycles of the moon...especially when it's full. It brings out the best and the worst in most people. I read up on what this particular moon could mean for me and it was all about the work/life balance. I do work...but, it's a labor of love. Yesterday, I spent most of the day and into the evening working away at the museum. It's a season change and an exhibit change...in addition, I feel that things need to be rearranged a little to create local interest. (Told ya, labor of love) When I got home, I was so wired up, I couldn't sleep. I tried to relax, meditate, exhaust myself cleaning, etc...but, nothing seemed to do the trick. I blame the full moon for restlessness, but I'm giving the goal for this "full moon opportunity" serious consideration. Balance. I think I do a great job at balance...others, not so much. The museum is a passion...it needs to be fed. When I get burned out, I step back. I do get to escape the 19th century with my part-time at Brooks Brothers...but, it still keeps my mind occupied day and night with ideas. I entertain frequently, so that helps out with the "life" balance. But, there's something missing. The expression "Ask Mother" comes to mind, but I know what she'll say. "You need to find a relationship." Ugh...just when I thought I had it all together, Mother comes along with a whole other can of worms! So, I'll continue to work at my work/life balancing act...because, I see now that it's more of a juggling act...and, as Mother would have it, a relationship...would help work out the kinks. Maybe, February's full moon.
