Plans: we’ll see…
Note: It’s beautifully cloudy and moderately cooler at the fucking-crack-o-dawn. Toby enjoys his .7 mile walks so much better when it’s like this.
Frija, Great All-Mother; caregiver of Family, Hearth and Home, teach us to be patient but not passive; wise but not haughty in our wisdom; far seeing yet not blind to that which is before us. May we nurture life, increase life, and live our own lives more fully. Through you we give honor to our human mothers. Through you we see all the beauty that surrounds us as well. WE GIVE YOU A MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, FRIJA, as we honor the Frija that resides in us all!
Frouwa, most lovely of all goddesses, who could not love you: Women as their own
inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty,
passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, FROUWA, as we honor the Frouwa that resides in us all!
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price,
Elder Runes in your way
Advise the physical man the day.
Armanen Rune Summons
Born of fire, born of ice;
Life is lived at such a price,
Armanen Runes in your way
Advise the Spirit man today.

A fifteenth I know, which Folk-stirrer sang,
the dwarf, at the gates of Dawn;
he sang strength to the gods, and skill to the elves,
and wisdom to Wodan who utters.
Outcome: Joy in manhood: perfekt!
Ya know, men have been given a bad rap lately; mostly brought on because of ourselves. As women become more equal I think there are men who become fearful of change rather than embrace equality. I, on the other hand, have embraced equality a LONG time ago and practice it in my daily life in every aspect. Yet, there are pockets of men who continue their downward spiral. I refuse to be a part of that; rather, I find joy in my manhood!
Took some pictures of Essie stalking Socks and placed them on Facebook.
I’m glad that Pyewacket and Socks are spending more time inside. I think they’re finding out that Essie really isn’t that threatening.
Obligatory job search…this one took a bit of work. Looking on KANSASWORKS.com I found a position that seems right up my alley with Center Industries
http://www.centerindustries.com/. On their website they have an application available in PDF to down load an send in. I downloaded it, printed it off at Fed Ex and filled it out. Looking for mailing stuff I discovered I either need money for a 5-page fax or postage and an envelope to send it in. Opting to get postage and envelopes for the long-haul I prepared to go to Dillons. Then it hits me, this company’s not far from me, why not just hand-carry it; which I did.
I cancelled trash service. I recycle 5 times more than I throw out. It’s a sincere waste of money to pay for trash service and only throw out one kitchen-sized bag a week. I’ll come up with some way to have a neighbor agree to let me use their trash can…for a small fee, of course.
A full week of a part-time job put her down for the count…interestingly funny.
This 100+F/38+C has to end soon.
Kindred brother came over briefly. Essie actually hissed at him...HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Watered the baby trees…sad…I KNOW I’m losing some to this relentless heat no matter what I do.
The Wurtâ, all three, are present at birth
To weave our Fate from merriment to dearth.
Urda, Werdanda and Sculd, the dark queens renowned;
Glorious ladies ‘neath the Tree, work your mysteries in us now.
That which “was” we can clearly see.
That which “is becoming” will form now in our deeds.
That which “is owed”, will be, but we cannot yet see,
We celebrate the Wurtâ, the Ladies Three, for all eternity.
