Plans: yard, wedding
NOTE: Before the crack-o-mother-fucking dawn, Squish, a cat from across the street, was at my door when I went out to check on Socks. I reached down to pet Squish and I felt something. Grabbing Squish and carrying him to the porch I discovered his right ear was roughed up. Someone or something beat him up overnight. Of course I have to believe it was Fat-Cat. NOW I understand Squish’s urgency. He was just wanting to go inside. He kept urging me to come with him across the street to let him inside where he knows he’d be safe.
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!

Havamal 163.
An eighteenth I learned, yet I would never
Let a woman or maid know it,
For everyone knows what’s best for himself-
This leads me to the conclusion of the songs-
The one it shall be then, that lies in my arms
As betrothed wife and as sister.
Secrecy, gift/giver, gift of life, fulfillment, sacred marriage, being ONE with the sister soul, protection against evil forces, seeing of the Divine, being/seeing the Divine, the cosmic consciousness and the divine principle, two forces having a singular origin, the spiritual ego, death-life cycle, protection against evil forces, union of the gods and the World, the uninterrupted chain in the cycle of eternal returns, the Creator and the Created, the deepest mysteries of the Universe.
Outcome: 63F/17C in late July @ dawn? Wow!
Toby was well-behaved on his .8 mile walk.
McDs for breakfast and Toby went with me. Yes, I shared.
Got right onto the yard.
Squish took refuge between my straw bales. When my neighbor showed signs of being awake I headed over there and called Squish to come with me. Come to find out Squish has a tube in his right ear so he was probably for some reason messing with it. I swear his ear looked like he had been in a fight.
That has to be THE WORST yard mowing I have ever done. It’s been two week for most of the yard. I think three weeks for the hind parts. With all this rain, and more to come, I just didn’t care. I pulled out the mulching plug, opened up the back end and let it fly! What was more important was to get it mowed and define it later.
The wedding went off really well even though I got lost heading out there. I meant to get there an hour ahead of time but if it wasn’t for someone in the country mowing his yard who happened to have a GPS device, I would never have made it. He was able to give EXCELLENT directions. I got there about 20 min early and whipped everyone into shape. They even gave me a bit extra for getting lost…HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…
While putting away the yard equipment from earlier today I notice a nice coolness, which automatically demanded some good family front yard time.
*It’s not often my knots come undone but a knot on Essie’s tether came undone. Before I knew it she was halfway across the neighbor’s yard.
*I was so proud of Toby. Across the street were a couple of dogs on leashes. His initial instinct would be to run willy-nilly across the street. Instead, he alerted me, I told him NO, and get back here. He obeyed.
*Socks has been in SO MUCH demand of affection lately.
I think a honey-whiskey night-cap or two is in order.
A storm is on the way. This time I didn’t give Socks a choice. As soon as I could I snatched him up and placed him inside the Hof.
