Here’s a post from four years ago discussing my seasonal “winter weight.” Although the new moon in my sixth house is still a couple of weeks away, I’m going to try to get an early start on my seasonal slim-down session. It’s going to be easier for me now that I’ve quit my job; I’ll have more time to exercise and I’ll stop stress-eating. I also got a new part-time job yesterday that will have me on my feet once again. I remember when that happened to me in 2017, and suddenly I stepped on a scale a few months later to discover that I had lost several pounds without even trying. I was not built to sit behind a desk all day. It makes me fat and miserable.

Most of my posts over the past few weeks have been about my job and how eager I was find something else to do. Now that I’ve done that, perhaps I’ll find something else to talk about besides myself. Restoring some balance to my life has been my goal for a while. Maybe finding that balance will allow me to enjoy writing again, too. It’s happened before and it can happen again. I’ve slimmed down before and I can slim down again. I’ve been unhappy before and I’ve found happiness again.

Seeing these cycles recur in my life is amazing. Like I mentioned yesterday, astrology is amazing. Having everything documented here on this blog is amazing, too. It would also be amazing to fit into my Tom Ford jeans now that people are saying that skinny jeans are in style again. I don’t know if they ever went out, but that’s a story for another post. Maybe I’ll actually write that post now that I’m going to have a little free time on my hands.

This all feels correct to me, like the universe is pointing me in the right direction . . .
