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.

Strength training with dumbbells
Standing, 3 sets of 6 @ 2/25lbs

• Forearm curls
• Bicep curls
• Overhead triceps extension
• Shoulder press
• Standing shoulder row

Plank, 3 sets @ 30secs each
*I’m thinking about extending strength training to a 5th day.  The 5th day would consist of an over-all routine.

Call into Sorcha on the way to work.

Shitty start to the shift, but the order I took over from 1st shift turned out okay.  It took a while to figure out, but it turned out okay.  After that, I just did what I wanted to do.  Fuck their hot list.
*I called Sorcha at the beginning of dinner break.  I felt like I had to apologize for my emotions.  She assured me there was no need.  She’s an EXCELLENT woman.
<> 
I’m fully believing my Sorcha will end up being the most amazing woman I’ve experienced in my life!

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!
