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.

To protect my ship from the stormy waves;
The storm I calm down, no matter how billowing the sea,
And I cradle the waves to sleep.

Call into the City about replacing a tree they planted on their easement. I tried several times yesterday to no avail. Today, sure I talked to someone, but OMGs, her LISTENING skills were less than adequate.

Textron left a message, asking for proof about my claim they owe me $5.28. I took pictures of the envelope with both my phone and digital camera. At this point, I have no idea how I’ll share the phone pic. The digital camera demanded I reset my photo program on my computer, since I haven’t downloaded any camera pics onto my computer since Windows 10 was reloaded. It took a bit of time, but I figured it out.

I LOVE IT when one of my squirrels take a piece of apple right from my hand! As I was taking my dinner-bucket and cup out to the car, a squirrel looked square at me. Kind of like he/she was saying, “Can you help me out here?” I checked the tree. There were only a few bits of kibble and no peanuts. I told him/her to wait right there. I’ll be right back. Rather than grab peanuts, it was easier to grab an apple and to start biting off some pieces. OMGs, the squirrel really did wait! I held out a piece of apple, and after only a wee bit of coaxing, he/she took it right out of my hand, then scurried up the tree. It’s little things like the trust squirrels have in me that gets me all über excited.

There was absolutely nothing on the table shaper, and very little in layout. It was quite a fuck-off night. Things finally started showing up around 7pm that kept everybody busy the rest of the shift.
*43degF on the car thermometer on the way home.
