Plans: we’ll see…
NOTE: Toby out for his .7, much cooler walk. When he’s been out several hours overnight and I come get him for his walk, he is, more time than not, über excited. That first intersection is always a challenge for him to calm down and handle it properly.
This morning, I leashed him up to the intersection, reminded him who is alpha, and everything went fine after that.
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, let us advance. When we would be weak, help us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, sharpen our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Help
us grow 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 A HEART-FELT HAIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!

An eighth I know: which all can sing
for their weal if they learn it well;
where hate shall wax 'mid the warrior sons,
I can calm it soon with that song.
Outcome: Change, but remain calm…got it.
A good, slow morning is a welcomed change; calming for the Spirit.
It seems the end is in sight for these 100+F38+C temps. Okay, it’s still upper 90s but it’s an improvement. Besides, it may be wishful thinking but the nights DO seem like they’re getting longer. The sun is later at rising (post 6AM/06:00) and is setting earlier (9PM/21:00). I’m afraid it’s too late, however, for some of the baby trees. This morning, I went online to start researching draught resistant, dwarf trees

My buddy G-boy is on assignment around the Oakland, San Francisco, Santa…something area in California. He Facebooked me with a San Jose Earthquake display at the airport. I called him and BEGGED him for a souvenir…literally BEGGED him; well, and threatened him with his life if he didn’t. He agreed to a shot glass. I’ll take that.
Lots of online time
Now why in THE Hel would there be a container of (formerly) frozen veggies in the washer? (shakes head in utter disbelief)

This heat just gets to me…
It’s such a wonderful sight to see Toby willingly share his wet food with Essie; not just willing but they eat together, too. Toby is so huge compared to Essie and could EASILY do her harm; he’s just a gentle giant.
