Plans: St Pat’s Day Parade…
NOTE: Remember the snakes, and St Patrick be damned! Drink to the death of this evil priest!
NOTE: LOL…Audie has asked me, “Why cant you just celebrate things like everyone else?” I guess when one is a Heathen in a Christian world it’s just a wee bit more difficult to close one’s eyes to their atrocities. Once one is educated about something, it’s hard to turn back the pages.
Fro/Freyr, you’re the Great God of “Ar”, the good harvest and prosperity: you are
indeed the lusty enlarger of life. 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, Fro/Freyr, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, FRO/FREYR, as we honor the Fro that resides in us all!
Sibba/Sif, Great Goddess of Fertility, wife of Thunar, let us see you in all the growing
things that sustain our lives. Help us look beyond the packaging and promotion, to the richness of the Earth from which all bounty comes. When ordinary eyes see only corn, let us see your golden hair hid in its silk. When others see only bread, let us see the grain, beyond that, your smile and laughter. Feed our might and main, Holy Sibba/Sif, that we may do our work in the world. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, SIBBA/SIF, as we honor the Sibba that resides in us all!

Well lemme tell ya, yesterday the VA sent me some valuable info concerning my diet and diabetes http://www.choosemyplate.gov/ and turns out there are some things I can immediately do; some things will be sacrificed. I can switch to 1% milk and eat more whole grains things like bread and tortillas. I have also been in the process of improving physical activity and have been fairly successful at it. Overall, I just need to be more mindful of my health situation, even if I take Audie into this kicking and screaming. I know I’ll have a good harvest from it as I start this new spirit of change at this time of my life.
A full weight-bearing workout PLUS a full training walk; okay, I probably won’t do that too often. I did it today because I started late in the week, will take a day off and start the full routine next week. I plan on 3 days of cardio and two days of weight-bearing. On the sixth day, I may do an abbreviated workout with both. The weight-bearing workout will consist of light weight with high reps.
While on the walk I noticed the church down the street had their food pantry open. Why they insist on a driver’s license I have no idea. So I had to go home to get my license and come back.
Off to the Irish Pride parade…of course, my real purpose for going is to catch up with the GPRF http://www.greatplainsrenfest.com/ folks. Before the GPRF folks rounded the corner I came across the Troll and puppets dislocated from the group. Raven sure is fun! As far as I’m concerned, once the GPRF people went by, the parade’s done. I sure love that bunch.
Napped
Certainly worn out now; nap didn’t help much.
Celtic Woman http://www.celticwoman.com/ on PBS; WOW! Celtic Woman is also
coming to Wichita soon: http://www.wichitatix.com/peo/show.asp
Jera may have come SCREAMING in for Audie. I’m not sure what’s in the envelope and I’m not sure I want to know.

Eger und Rahana/Aegir and Ran, mysterious keepers of the deep hall at ocean’s bottom, host to the drowned and the sea lost. Your dwelling might be thought sad and gloomy, but you are known to be kind and hospitable ale givers. In your goodness then, cheer us when waves of misfortune pound our life’s fragile boats to the bottom. For even at the bottom, there is warmth, cheer and hope. Be our assurance and our inspiration to strive on despite the swells and swirls of fate.
