NOTE: It has been raining all night and still is raining fairly heavily morning! I wonder if this will officially kick our drought’s ass?
*Poor Toby had to go outside to potty. I stood at the back door and waited. When he was done I met him at the door with a towel dry.
Donar, Son of Wodan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of
Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty
and good. Excite our growth from strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST
HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!

No sword can wound him so he collapses in the dust.

Outcome: No walk for Toby this morning.
Socks has been in the Haruc all night and into this morning because of the rain. I bodily removed him, covered him from the rain and brought him inside the house.
Essie is staying well hidden. Toby and Socks are staying close-by.
Rain stopped so Socks went outside for a bit, but was SO ready to come back inside when it thundered.
The rain finally cleared out around noon.
Took Toby for a walk shortly after the rain stopped. The warmer temps later in the day certainly are kicking his little doggy ass.

Family porch time has been extended to family front yard time. Essie is always testing the limits of her tether now, but I think she’s realizing her tether is the way of things.
My brother does oneheluva BBQ. After BBQ he and I started talking about horseshoes. I told him of mine busting in half because I found concrete. I showed him and he told me they weren’t steel. He went into his garage and produced a set of really nice steel ones. He also told me of the horseshoe pits in the park across the street from him. Come to find out they were professional grade horseshoe pits. Hel, I was use to sand-lot horseshoe pits but these were well defined clay pits. He said leagues play here and I would believe that. My brother was kicking my ass (10-3) but we only got halfway due to the clay sticking to the horseshoes and we had no way to clean them off. A return trip is DEFINITELY in order.
My neighbor actually DID make an appointment for his cat. I’m taking him into his appointment tomorrow @ 1:40PM. This cat is in some serious need of attention.
Nirdu, brother-husband to Nirda, parents of the
Wanâ ; Ing-Fro and the Frouwa, beloved god
of harbors and seas close to land; help us to remember the cargoes of wealth that float to our doors daily from the wonderful Universe in which we live. Though our misfortunes may rise and fall like the tides, the chance of prosperity, like the eternal sea brimming with fish, is still there. Like the
salt-sea spray, awaken us to the possibilities that surround us, so that our nets may be cast wide and return full of life’s gifts. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, NIRDU, as we honor the Nirdu that resides in us all!
