Morning politics discussion with my folks. Good to be back with them, to see and talk with them. Miss my CA fam, but my hope is relaxation and healing for them.

After a bit, slept soundly. No dream details recalled.
Got up and had coffee and breakfast (plate sized blueberry pancake and a banana.

THOUGHTS:
It is a day to read a bit before bed, on the divisions of Anthropology.
Some fields or divisions of Anthropology I’ve slacked on a bit, so perhaps Medical and Physical Anthropology studies tonight, along with catching up on Homer and Hesiod.
Great Books is no longer just Sun and Mon, but everyday, as I could be a bit further on study of just those two alone.
Also, would not be a bad thing to exercise a bit more on a daily basis, .. and meditate .. every morning (without fail).
While I’m with my folks every day will use the Cubii to do step repetitions
With a fair diet and daily exercise, I’m hoping to get back down to a 36 size waist quickly.
I awoke this morning, at the same time my folks got up. We had our morning coffee. We then had blueberry plate sized pancakes and coffee. I then shaved and put shorts on.
We then went and ran errands, and I got some Zyn (weaning myself off again).
Yes, my will needs some discipline and willpower.
Going to take a shower before dinner.
Now going to engage in some reading of Anthropology subdisciplines and Homer and Hesiod.
Will do my Zelator Formula today.
I guess Mysticism might be my calling. Or there are fundamental concepts I never grasped in regards to Magic. Pathworkings might be a novel idea for me.
Or prayer, a life of prayer like those elderly ladies that whisper while playing with their rosary beads, and faithful acceptance of the Eucharist. Prayer and pathworkings.
Maybe then I can tap my finger on the shoulder of Shem angels, let alone archangels, or the greater countenance and voice of God.
Evocation keys in pathworkings might just be a foot in the door.
Or, stick to my guns, and continue reading one or two books in parallel, treating each and every one as a grimoire in its own right.
Or quit listing for results after rattling on the gate doors and tossing geomancy pebbles at the Shem shoulders.
