Rough night. Over the weekend I had to reset my alarm clock due to a power outage. I’m always nervous when I do that because too many times I don’t do it right, so I’m up several times anxious whether or not the alarm is going to sound when it should.

Sommersonnewende/Mid-Summer/Summer Solstice: the longest day and the shortest night. The only good thing about it is from this day onward to Winter-sonnawendi/Iul, the nights get longer and the days get shorter.

A sixth one is mine, if a man wounds me
With the root of a trunk still with juice;
Then I am unscathed, the man himself is consumed
By the evil with which he threatened me.

Good AM work; hard metals
Good @ home for lunch; 90/F, Toby was comfy, but ready to go inside.
Good PM work; aluminum briefly, back to hard metals, back to aluminum. Super said he wanted the large Komo parts done. For the first time since there, I offered to stay past 16:30 if necessary; luckily it wasn’t.
*96F on the way home. Yeah, it was the right thing to have Toby inside. He was ready to go potty when I got home. Essie now goes to the back door anticipating back yard time.

Essie doesn’t want to come back inside. She’s content to lie in the shade of the stoop on Socks’ house: 94F/34C.

It amazes me how Essie is still so playful. We haven’t played like that is a long time.
Now she wants to go back outside in the back yard…I’m not hurt…much.

Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high. You’re the measurer and teller of time. As you fly silently on your way reflect into our souls the glory of the High Ones that we might aspire to the realms of the gods. Bathe our world in soft brightness, and whisper to our souls of joyous realms beyond our knowing. Mano let us see the goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!
