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.

Not a great way to wake-up.  Once again, Toby has ripped open a bag of aluminum cans and strewn them in the backyard…ARGH!  He KNEW my displeasure.

Good morning chat with my love my fiancée; her day has not started well either.

Dealing with Navient is NOT a good way to start the day.

Well hela, this helped out my morning.  I went out to the tree where I leave food out for the squirrels during the winter, and there was a squirrel waiting for me.  He/she watched as I approached with an open hand of a fruit offering.  As I came closer, the squirrel still did not move, and it took the peach seed out of my hand!!!!  Back up the tree it went.  WHOA!

Toby and I out for a three-block roundy-roundy; that’s all I was in the mood to do, but wanted to get out for a bit.  I was a bit short with Toby because my mood was so dark.  I apologized to him.

Feet hurt like Hela!  Price to pay for new inserts, I guess…Maximum does of ibuprofen to the rescue.

God/dess Meditation: Ostara, trustworthy goddess; wife to Brego; the adherent god of scalds, keeper of the golden apples of youth and eternal life, keep us young inside. When we are starving for laughter, hungry for the lightness that comes with having few years on our shoulders, slip us one of those gleaming fruits that we may see the world through youthful eyes. Let springtime be in our steps, love in our hearts and a song on our lips. Change us to the core! Fill us with optimism and dreams for the future. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, OSTARA, as we honor the Ostara that resides in us all!
