Countdown 2008 – Part 1
NOTE: This will be one long post – I’ll be adding to it all through the day. I’m starting early this year…I want to make sure I’m ready to rock when 2008 rolls in. Oh yeah!
36 hours to 2008
Today is all about purifying my home: getting rid of the old energy 
so the new energy can circulate freely.
I’ve got the vacuum cleaner out, and I’m about to put the first load of
dirty laundry into the washer.
Listening to The Best of Bob Marley and the Wailers.
Let the fun begin!
35 hours to 2008
First wash ready to fold. Second wash in progress.
It’s 1:00 p.m. – Making pasta for lunch.
33 hours to 2008
The pasta was delicious, thank you.
Second wash ready to fold – wash is over and done with for today.
Making list of things to buy for tomorrow’s New Year’s Eve Web Party.
Will take van to car wash…and shop for items on list.
29.5 hours to 2008
Everything is going according to plan. 
Shopping is all done, except for the sushi – I’ll be going for take-out tomorrow evening around 7:00. Already picked what I want from their menu: avocado hosomaki (6), cucumber hosomaki (6), vegetarian temaki (1), lettuce/carrot/cucumber/avocado/tofu futo maki (5). Vegetarian cuisine at it’s best!
I have the party decorations, the wine, nachos and salsa sauce for an early evening snack, and an assortment of baklawa/namoura for dessert. Ooooooo…how am I ever going to resist drinking and eating all this tonight?
Also remembered to buy my agenda (day planner) for 2008. Will be writing in the birthdays and special anniversaries tomorrow – going through my old agenda and looking back at 2007.
Now it’s time for a nice bowl of hot soup…I just came in from walking Daisy. Though it’s not too cold outside, it sure is slippery.
Listening to Miles Davis – Kind of Blue.
24.5 hours to 2008
What a great day this has been. And tomorrow is going to be even better. Yes!
Because now that I’ve gotten all the cleaning and shopping out of the way, I’ll be able to relax and dive into the more spiritual part of the ritual: the Runes, the Tarot, the burning of incense, etc.
And I received two beautiful gifts, yesterday, that will make the rituals even more special: an Inukshuk, and a box of scented candles.
So I hope to see you all bright and early for Part 2 of the Countdown to 2008.
Big hugs and lots of love,
Oza a.k.a. Mudd
