SUSHI for dinner!

Essie in the back yard.

I don't think I'll EVER be able to convince Toby to come off his Mr. Opportunist character. Twice, since I've been home, he seized onto the opportunity to nab Essie's food bowl. The second time he was bold enough to carry her bowl into the next room and drop it off by his. I always refrain from smacking him and today was no different. I certainly voiced my displeasure, however. Eh, I probably can blame myself. I'm sure I send mixed signals for him being in the kitchen.

Toby and I to Meeka Park plus 3/5 of a mile.

PM God/dess Meditation: Nirdu, brother-husband to Nirda, parents of the Wanâ; Ing-Frô and the Frouwa, beloved god of harbors and seas close to land; help us to remember the cargoes of wealth that float to 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!
