blog talk radio hi everybody welcome to ann ortley's weekly weather my name is anne ortley

and i'm sitting here at the bright red desk with macks sticking his nose in my glass of water

it's pretty gross when your cat likes to drink out of your water glass uh that means that glass

of water is done um at the bright red desk on my birthday.

I turned 62 today.

I'm old.

Actually, my friend goes, no, we're spring chickens, and I went cluck, cluck.

So I'm a spring chicken at 62.

And I have to say, I love Facebook because you get all these birthday wishes.

And it's been a nonstop party.

I started Thursday with burlesque with my friend

Lorraine. And then I went out last night with my friend Madeline, and I'm going out tonight with my

friend Carol, and I go out tomorrow night with my friend Brenda and Eileen and Carol. And it's a party time,

party time, party time. So I'm having a good time on my birthday.

And it looks like a nice solar return.

It does a moon Pluto in Capricorn aspect.

So that one I'm not thrilled with.

But the rest of the solar return looks very nice.

And it does look like one of my projects I do every year for my birthday.

I have this thing called a GOSPA,

my goals, objectives, strategy, plans, and activities where I make this little list of what I'm going to do. And I do it on my birthday because, you know, it's the birthday. And you kind of

think about what you want to do in the year ahead. And then my actual, the plan itself runs, you know, till December.
