I have been away from home for quite a while, but it seems to me that being to buy beer and wine locally stops those 2-3 hour beer runs our fathers so enjoyed.

Daily Horoscope for January 6

Capricorn

Don't let anyone stand in the way of your progress and don't reveal personal secrets. You could very easily become run down at the moment. An empty promise could leave you feeling sad. If you're working today, there could be some problems: stick to your own work and make sure that someone doesn't try to take credit for your efforts.
