9th Day of Yule – Remembering the Noble Virtue of Industriousness
Life requires that we work hard. Be conscientious and diligent in whatever labor you have placed before you. Never sit back and take the easy way out in regards to your ability to create a lifestyle for yourself. No matter the lifestyle you choose, know that your elevation in life, or lack of it, may (but not always) be the direct result of your depth of diligence. Do the best you can, and know that your efforts have been suitably rewarded (Vaygar Ingvald Elmersson).
NOTE: Here is the main reason why I check on Socks first thing in the
morning. Last night’s check, everything was fine. This morning I find blown
electrical outlet and a fried extension chord. I’ll never again make the same
mistake of placing two space heaters in the same outlet. I didn’t think the
other outlet on the opposite wall worked, but low and behold…IT DOES!
Plans: wedding…
and Ing-Frô :
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 HEIL, FROUWA, as we honor the Frouwa that resides in us all!
Ing-Frô , you’re the Great God of Fridu (all-encompassing safety and protection), Ar (peace, good seasons), the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the god of this World. When the day to day wears us down remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and
certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing-Frô, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ING-FRÔ, as we honor the Ing-Frô that resides in all of us!

A thirteenth I mention, when I sprinkle the son,
The young one, with holy water,
If once he faces the foe, then he cannot fall,
No sword can wound him so he collapses in the dust.

Outcome: Toby was MUCH better behaved today than he was yesterday on his
1-mile walk.

The wedding was GREAT! On the way there I had an idea, hoping they had a wireless connection…AND THEY DID! I worked a song into the service perfektly. I pulled up “Dancing On the Ceiling” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiRtnjjCPI8 by Lionel Ritchie as a surprise for the bride. I think the bride might have been about 3 or so when she got the biggest kick out of me turning her upside-down, placing her feet on the ceiling making like she really was dancing on the ceiling. You should have seen her face when she realized what the song was. ROTFLMFnAO! Pictures, then a scrumptious lunch at Marco’s Cantina. I got a good gas stipend out of the deal. That’s enough for me.
I made a trip to PetSmart http://www.petsmart.com/, my first investigation into specialty foods for Toby. PetSmart has their own brand called “Advantage” and have one grain free option. However, Toby’s eating grain in the form of rice, so grains might not be an issue. In the detox diet, the original recipe called for lamb and rice. Advantage has a lamb and rice dog food. That shit’s gonna be expensive and I don’t want to waste money. I better wait to talk to Toby’s veterinarian.
Cleaned out the Haruc/Cat House. Now if only I could get Socks to do that himself.
Front yard family time.

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!
