Honor is the ability to hold your head high in all situations; of personal integrity and strong moral character. We set standards for ourselves and live according to those standards. We are not encouraged to set low standards, rather, set high standards and work toward them continually, even behind closed doors.

A twelfth one I sing, when I see through the brush
The hanged one swinging from the hemp;
He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.

West Wichita Family Optometrists called telling me my 2nd pair of side-shields were in. I picked them up immediately, also another lens cleaning kit.

On a whim, I stopped into Auto Smart for an oil change and asked them to check out my coolant strength and front brakes. Well hel, other problems surfaced to the tune of $1,300 in necessary repairs. I trust them so I know this isn't BS. I may not make much money, but I am CERTAINLY glad I manage my money well enough that I don't have to go to my credit card for this.

As long as I'm comfortable with Essie having no method of escape, she can be in the back yard all she wants. With today's nice weather, soon to change, she's enjoying it.

My neighbors are so cool. They saw my car wasn't in the driveway and my front door was wide open. They stopped by to make sure things were okay. Gotta love 'em!

Awww...Socks remembers the “bedtime potty walk”. I started that with Meeka and Socks just kind of joined in on his own. As I live on a cul-de-sac, it consisted of a walk to the end of the block so Meeka could potty before bedtime. After I put Meeka down, the “bedtime potty walk” became scarce. Tonight, I again tried it, knowing full well Toby would cooperate, and realize Socks DOES remember it. Toby and I walked to the end of the block, around the end, back to home, Socks was sure to follow.

Donar, Son of Wotan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
