Leftover pizza and cheesy bread plus two all meat burritos with cheese for lunch.

Not a horrible night at work; however, I DID scrap a $350 part because a clamp came off.  Believe me, it doesn’t take much for a part to be expensive.  Even the smallest of parts can have an über expensive price tag.

Last check on all fur-kids.

Shower, 02:00 nighty-night.  I get to sleep with my wife!

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!
