A dear old friend called me last week and said "Clymela,I am going shopping on Tuesday and I want you to come with me as my guest." I was so surprised that I started to cry, We were just out of resources waiting for Steve's money from the State and then finding that actually the State was not paying UIB/SDI, etc. because supposedly they, the State government, squandered 7 billion dollars the Feds granted in order to update the BIG State computer system.
Well we will get paid this week because we finally called Nancy Skinner's office. She has a "caseworker" who researches things and gets action if that is appropriate.
This weekend I heard that the government had all manner of clerical folk working to hand issue these delayed checks.
I hate Schwarzenegger! so crude but really I do for all the destruction he has caused in his flat footed attempt to make people see that government doesn't work. I guess he and his wort are winning the propaganda wars-government doesn't work they dry and sure enough it does not but people would not believe this if they knew the truth.
Now back to my charmed life. My friend said on our way to the store after saying to her that I didn't know what to do because "going to the store" can mean a lot of different things and I felt awkward. She said I want you to just go crazy and buy every thing that comes to mind.
Well I did buy a basket of food with my usual love of "specials" and did turn away so that I don't know the total but I do know that the basket was close to $200.
My friend has always had money as have many of my friends. This was her classy way of acknowledging my hardships right now. she also treated me to breakfast and we discussed the importance of getting the kids to pay their own way and get out on their own as soon as possible
Brought up all the Chiron conjunct Nessus conjunct Jupiter-recognition of wounds and the opportunity to find a new path/a new consciousness. I can';t relly undo all the mistakes of the past nor can I make up to Courtney what Amy didn't get but I can do my best to help now.
Saturn/Pluto square-Donna Cunningham says rage is everywhere. I don't know about rage but I sure do know that the fat cats seem to get away with everything even when the whole world can see them.
Another thing canceled the subscription to the chronicle and started a subscription to the West County Times. I had been thinking of this for a bit especially since the chronicle has not once written about the States refusal to pay UIB,etc. Fuck the Chronicle and the disgusting corrupt corporation (The Hearst Publishing Company)that owns it. Too much money for too little-no news at all. The Hearst Company wanted to destroy the chronicle and well they have.
