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.

An eighteenth I learned, yet I would never
Let a woman or maid know it,
For everyone knows what’s best for himself-
This leads me to the conclusion of the songs-
The one it shall be then, that lies in my arms
As betrothed wife and as sister.
The scald, awakening, passion, sensuality, engagement, mystery, comprehension of the diving from below upward; from humanity outward, secrecy, gift/giver, gift of life, that which is best for the individual, fulfillment, sacred marriage, being ONE with the sister soul, protection against evil forces, being/seeing the Divine, the cosmic consciousness and the divine principle, two forces having a singular origin, the spiritual ego, death-life cycle, protection against evil forces, union of the gods and the World, the uninterrupted chain in the cycle of eternal returns, the Creator and the Created, the deepest mysteries of the Universe, the end.
“Man, be one with God” (List, 67).

Outcome: WOW! 7 ½ hours of sleep maybe 8, and only one wake up after going to bed @ 02:39hrs makes for a VERY late start to the morning.

Found out some things from last night after I fell. I left the front door wide open. I also left the backyard gate open and my dinner bucket on the back porch. Dinner bucket is soaked. The backyard gate open didn’t concern me because Toby was in his doghouse this morning. When I finally got close to Toby, HE SMELLED LIKE SHIT…LITERALLY! So, I imagined since he was out all night and the back gate was open, he probably had a bit of adventure. He evidently found some shit and rolled in it. Guess who went right into the shower? Yup, since I have a hand-held apparatus for a showerhead, I use that instead of bathing him.

No Bundesliga matches this week, presumably due to International duties.

My sister called inviting me over for some things she wants to give me. OMGs! Mother’s recipe box and other WONDERFUL things. This is a true jewel for me!
*even as a cancer patient, she still smokes. She was courteous enough to ask my permission if she smoked. I told her, “It’s your house”. While I was there she smoked three cigarettes. When I got home, I had to rip off my shirt due to the smoke smell.

Yeah, I know the score, but since I couldn’t find the Sporting KC match on the tele, I watched the rerun of the USA/Panama game. Sure, I’m glad they won. The USA has pretty much made their way onto the world’s stage @ the World Cup in Russia 2018. Historically though, their performance has been sporadic @ best, but always good enough to get them into the World Cup for the last, what, 8-10 years? Yet, they frustrate me. Now, they have the triad of Pulisic (Borussia Dortmund), Altidore (Toronto), and Wood (not sure where HE comes from). I suppose you can throw in Dempsey (Seattle) if you want to. They seem to work well together. Of course, win or lose, coaches will get the praise or the ire. This is Bruce Arena’s first effort with the USMNT. I have never cared for Bruce Arena, and I anticipated utter failure. They play Trinidad and Tobago before the World Cup.

Frouwa, most lovely of all goddesses; who could not love you? Women as their own inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty, passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, FROUWA, as we honor the Frouwa that resides in us all!

Ing-Frô, you’re the Great God of Fridu (all-encompassing safety and protection), Ar (peace, good seasons), the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the god of this World. When the day to day wears us down remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing-Frô, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ING-FRÔ, as we honor the Ing-Frô that resides in all of us!
