Plans: DAY OFF!!!!
normally attributed to the (rather obscure) fertility goddess, Saeter (more correctly Saturn), we pray to Sibba/Sif and to Fro/Freyr, lighting green candles (for fertility):
Sibba/Sif 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. HAIL SIBBA/SIF!!
Fro/Freyr, you are the 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. FRO/FREYR, HAIL!!

Advice on how to spend the day
Outcome: ALL SMILES!
Audie is not quite with it this morning; makes for a rough day.
Pancakes, scrambled eggs and sausage; too bad she didn’t want any
Organized bills
Trip to Dillons for their post office
Front yard mowed, trimmed, driveway cleared.
A long overdue heart-to-heart with Audie; sometimes lightening bolts can be painful.
Meeka and I for a walk
To Walmart http://www.walmart.com/ for dog food. While there I was going to pick up a few other produce items (I really enjoy peaches in-season). On the display they were priced @ .98lb; at the register they rung up as $1.25lb. Rather than make a scene @ the register I gave them back at commented to a manager in the produce dept about the disparity. She seemed less than interested in correcting the price. I have emailed Walmart my concern for their poor customer service.
The evenings are so cool; so wonderful. I just couldn’t keep myself indoors.
