You can still write the check even if you're late by a couple of days. The point is to get into the flow, the current of the new moon energy which began yesterday and is building in power up until the full moon. Don't give up if you forgot to do it yesterday; just do it now, put the check somewhere that you won't see it and then just release it from your mind. Releasing it is all part of it, too, because you're allowing it to do its work.

Emmet Fox, one of my favorite writers, wrote a short story about some campers who had a kettle boiling which brought a bear sniffing around. Suddenly the bear picked up the kettle and hugged it to himself and, of course, got burned but he didn't know to release the kettle so it continued to burn him. Fox is telling us that we need to release our problems, let go of them, so that the solution can come and, if we need help in doing so to say to ourselves "bear hugs kettle". I've always been one to hold on to my problems by trying to force a solution rather than allowing one to happen, so whenever I find myself anxious over something, I say that phrase to myself. So write your LOA check and fuhgeddaboudit.
