I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me.  I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you’ve provided. I look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side.  I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.
* no doubt the ones who brought the family over from Europe.

Armanen Rune: Hagal: 
Havamal 152:
A seventh I learned, if the hall is burning

With fire around bench and comrades;
However bright it burns, I will banish the blaze,
As soon I sing the magic chant.

Rune Lesson: WOW!  Look at the polarity!  The ultimate masculine protection.  The ultimate female protection.  Despite the polarity, the goal is the same: ULTIMATE PROTECTION!

1st check on all fur-kids: food, water, litterboxes, shelter.

Outcome: Just shy of 7hrs of sleep with one wakeup and lots of Lily loving.

Tried to make this breakfast sandwich; https://66.media.tumblr.com/15e661f95466a9c047c05622dc0d587a/6258b95cc1091eb4-67/s250x400/37621772e9383ae970b71880e992dc4422d7c51a.gifv?fbclid=IwAR2uMUQN9B_XlwQERM4aS959w8s6aazksIZfUWh8IY1HThhLTyJ6FvNDLfw  Not the best result.  Adjustments to be made.

Okay, I’m going to say this publicly.  In my wife’s defense, she DOES have a weakened immune system.  With this COVID-19 shit coming home to roost, my wife is naturally concerned; so much so, that she is willing to stay away from me because I have to go out and about.  I just wish she would’ve communicated this to me three days ago when all this avoidance dance started.

Elite Renovations here early to put the toe-boards on the ramp so Toby is less likely to fall off it.  I offered him money but he wouldn’t take it.
<> 
Extra online time.

Made my own COVID-19 face mask using the sleeve of a long-sleeved t-shirt for going out to the grocery store later today.

Note to Self: Toby’s 12noon feeding and insulin

Toby and I out for a two-block roundy training session so he can come to trust me as his seeing eye human.
*cloudy, cool, slight breeze.

A quick reacquainting bicycle ride.  The bicycle itself performed admirably for sitting idle for so long.  The new bike-bag is perfekt for my needs.  What I found out quickly was the shoes that I was wearing were unacceptable.   While they are fine for walking and everyday use, the aggressive treads do not work well with my toe-pegs.  I’m going to have to try it again tomorrow using my Pay Lass cheap-o shoes with MUCH less aggressive tread.

My latest rendition of Hobo Stew:

God/dess Meditation: Sunday, Sunna’s Day, Sunna, goddess of the Sun:
Greetings to you Sunna, in all your feminine, fertile glory; Lamp of Wodan, newly risen! Hail to you who is the counterpart to Mano, male aspect of the Moon.  You have shown on all our ancestors, you shine on us, and you will yet shine on our decedents yet unborn. Share with us some of your light, your energy, your power, so that we might better fight our battles and attain our goals. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL SUNNA, as we honor the Sunna that resides in us all!
