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.

Armanen Rune: Bar:

A thirteenth I mention, when I sprinkle the son,

The young one, with holy water,
If once he faces the foe, then he cannot fall,
No sword can wound him so he collapses in the dust.

Interpretation: Absolut trust (Ehwaz) brings shielding (Bar).

1st check on all fur-kids: food, water, litterboxes, shelter.

Outcome: a wee bit more than 7hrs of sleep with just one wakeup.  Nothing says “good morning” like cleaning-up dog poop.  I never get mad at Toby because I know he always does the best he can to either wake me or wait, so there had to be some reason why he couldn’t hold it.

VA @ 10:30. I’m having fun with the ultrasound idea in relation to the concept of pregnancy.  From what I understand, this was all about the possibility of a growing hernia, but we’ll see.

Okay, it seems I got the promotion/relegation thing a wee bit wrong in the Bundesliga.  The bottom two teams in the Bundesliga are automatically relegated to 2Bundesliga and the top two teams in 2Bundesliga are automatically promoted to Bundesliga.  It’s the third from the top in 2Bundesliga and the third from the bottom in Bundesliga that play to determine who goes and who stays.  SO, Paderborn and Köln (2Bundesliga) are promoted to Bundesliga while Hannover and Nürnberg (Bundesliga) are relegated to 2Bundesliga.  It’s Stuttgart and Union Berlin who will battle to see who is relegated or promoted.

Work was puzzling.  There was this one order of parts that have been on the compliance list since last Friday.  The lead-person let me slide on it because I was unfamiliar with it.  Tonight, I attempted to tackle it.  With the help of a shop colleague, who really is so smart about so many things, she helped me figure it out…for the most part.  There was so much about it that made no sense:
*It made no sense why the -168 was in the Hanel but the -167 was sitting on a pallet.
*It made no sense why both the -167 and 168 front plates were in the Hanel separate from both.
*It made no sense why had pins where the front plate would be attached all gummed up with adhesive.
*It made no sense how my colleague guessed it might work, but she was right for the most part.
SO!  I cleaned-up the form block and determined it was a two-step process rather than three, as suggested by my colleague.  I talked to my lead-person about how I figured this might run, step by step, and she didn’t have a problem with it.  I had her at the bag press when I test ran my first part.  We both determined that “it looked like the making of an airplane part of some face” (13th Warrior line adapted).  I talked to the layout people to find a CATIA image but the part was so old there was none.  I was able to find one drawing without dimensions, but with the finished, lasered product.  My finished product looked reasonable compared to that drawing.  I ran all 21 parts without incident.  I even had a chance to discuss the entire process with my Supervisor and the Supervisor in Training.  They had no problem with my process.  I made sure they knew I had never before ran these parts, but I didn’t see how they could be any different.  They agreed.
I kept the faceplate with the form block, the pins taped to the top, and the entire thing placed on a cart for later discussion with my 1st colleague when he comes back from vacation later this week.
I also utilized my new overhead crane skills to move a 200lb form block from floor storage to the deep end of the bag press floor for later usage; that is, if I can figure that one out, too.

Last check on all fur-kids.  All fur-kids are safe and under shelter.

I messaged the VA earlier about the WHY of my ultrasound earlier today.  Their response was;
“It is a screening to check to see if you have an abdominal aortic aneurysm.”
And…
“No aneurysm seen on ultrasound, but they were not able to see well in general and recommended a CT scan to better evaluate aorta; if patient is agreeable, I will order this study. “
To which I agreed.  What was I going to do, say no and not care about my health?

God/dess Meditation: Mano, god of the moon:
Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high.  You’re the measurer and teller of time.  You’re the counterpart to Sunna, the feminine aspect of the sun.  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!
