Give yourself exactly what you need. It could be as simple as a change of locale and a few new faces and activities to enjoy. Of course, you feel duty bound to ensure that everything at home runs perfectly in your absence. Before you take off, make sure that the person you trust the most knows what is expected of them. You just can’t enjoy yourself or focus on fun otherwise.

After an emotional few days, things are feeling calmer. Clear your calendar and enjoy a mellow evening at home. A little escapism in the form of your favorite movie star onscreen is what you need now.

Walking into a situation when you know all the factors makes you feel like you’re in control. Yawn. But, thank goodness, along comes your partner with something that shakes you up. Secretly, you’re delighted.

Starting new projects is tempting, but useless unless you finish the ones you’re already working on. The last thing you want to do is make everything you touch turn to dust when gold is your real objective. Make completing what you start one of your cardinal rules.
