Plans: day off
Up at sunrise to go to the VA, but my appointment on Aug 4th isn’t for blood work; rather, it seems to be for Ophthalmology. Well damn…waste of time.
McDs for breakfast; brought something to share with Toby.
*car thermometer said 72F/22C; not bad for the last day of July.
Toby and I out for a 1-mile walk.
Stubby for feeding.

In eternal change, man goes forth
From death to new creation.

Outcome: Yesterday, I was disappointed a some of the things I ordered from Amazon concerning my great-nephew’s birthday. I asked for and received confirmation for a refund on one item. If I saw it correctly, it SEEMED they said I could have the refund, but didn’t need to return it. WHAT? I’ll check on that later. I decided another of the items would be doable. So, I went ISO a replacement gift for what I had refunded and found the PERFEKT stuff. Yeah, I spent more than double, but it was necessary.
Lots of online fun; Chrome-cast a Rammstein concert.
Veggie burger w/cheese, potato coins and a Klondike Bar for lunch.
Almost forgot about my dental appointment for deep cleaning. I am certainly in love with my hygienist. We certainly have loads of fun. At the end of the appointment, she pulled me aside to tell me she was no longer going to work on Fridays. I just came right out telling her I’d like to take her out to dinner sometime. She politely declined. I asked why. She said she already had a boyfriend. I suggested that one day she may not. I slyly left two business cards; one for her, one for their bulletin board in whatever break room they may have.
The soles of both of my New Balance shoes, where I can spend upwards of $50, have come loose, WAY too soon IMO. As quickly as this seems to happen, I think I’m equally as good when I get plain-ole shoes from Payless http://www.payless.com/. I may go shopping soon.
Neighbor lady over with food offerings.
Frozen fish filets, baked potato, and salad for dinner.

Nighty-night
Die Wurtâ, all three, are present at birth
To weave our Fate from merriment to dearth.
Urda, Werdanda and Sculd, the dark queens renowned;
Glorious ladies ‘neath the Tree, work your mysteries in us now.
That which “was” we can clearly see.
That which “is becoming” will form now in our deeds.
That which “is owed”, may be, but we cannot yet see.
We celebrate die Wurtâ, the Ladies Three, for all eternity.
