Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price

Outcome: 8 ½ hours of sleep with 3 wake-ups; two for me, one for Toby.

Now why in the fuck did my Sisser call @ 8:30am?

Good morning greeting to my love my fiancée; busy day for her.

Breakfast sandwich on a whole wheat English muffin and a banana.

Toby to Air Capital Veterinary for his vaccinations.  He’s lost 1-pound since last January.
<> 
Toby and I out for a late morning, well behaved, 30min walk.  Toby had his face attacked by a cat, and this cat was ready to finish what Toby may have started.  Toby had a clawed bloody nose and evidence the cat was going to Toby’s eyes.  When it’s warm like this, I keep a portable water bowl/bottle for Toby.  When we stopped for his drink, I also rinsed off his muzzle.  He’s alright.
*very warm, sunny/high clouds, no breeze.

Watered all baby shrubs and trees.

90degF on the car thermometer
PH for lunch

Two years after my initial shrub planning, and I’m FINALLY getting my first blooms on my Kim’s Lilac bush.  I’m all excited!

Not as horrible night at work.  My 1st shift colleague told me the spindle on the table shaper wouldn’t move, and of course I had to test it.  It moved, but there was only that one order on the table shaper so I opted to stay in layout.  16 parts, layout, drill 113 holes per part, and rough saw to scribe line took me all night.  I was good with that and it took me right to the end of shift.
<> 
At work I had an epiphany.  I know my Pro-Choice Men page on FB is controversial, but I don’t have to put up with harassment like what happened over last weekend.  I was notified that my page was “mentioned” but it didn’t say how or where.  I’m presuming an onslaught from Pro-Lifers.  I can make it so that all visitors comments are moderated.  That should solve things; stopping harassment before it happens.  It may mean a bit more work on my part but will certainly solve any headaches.

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!
