Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high. You’re the measurer and teller of time. 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!

Havamal 148.
The fourth one I know, when a foe has tied up
My arms and hands;
The fetters fall from my leg, when I chant that song,
And off my hands the ropes come.

At PetSmart, I CONSIDERED a cat tower for Essie, but I’m not sure if she’d use it. It's a lot of money for something I’m not sure she’d use.
*besides, I have no idea where she’s been hiding today.
Between being pissed off at JCP and worried about Essie’s inactivity, I’m just not in the best of moods. Ya know, I wish I had $150 I could have plunked down for that cat-condo for Essie in an effort to at least get her some climbing activity. Now I beginning to question if I’ve raised her properly. At one time she made movements like she WANTED to go outside, but not any more. Have I raised her as a captive?
Loving on Socks, and he greatly appreciated it.
Essie finally came out of hiding and was SO loveable. My heart melted.
Separated recyclables.
Back to the grind tomorrow.
Lazy…early to bed.
