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.
* no doubt the ones who brought the family over from Europe.

Elder Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way
Advise the mortal man today
<> 

Elder Rune: Ansuz: In favor of the gods, Wodan specifically, the Divine Father, Wodanic wisdom, the Athem - Divine/vital breath, the force of creation, taking inventory of one’s Tru Spirit and spiritual balance, a higher source of inspiration, communication skills and divine ancestry, higher consciousness, mental stability, self-discipline, the loving/bright/compassionate Alle-Vater, spiritual balance.
Conversely:
Outside the favor of Alle-Vater Wodan vital/divine breath and the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, spiritual shunning, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, tough-love Fathering, the absent All-Father, the shadow/dark/mysterious side of Alle-Vater Wodan.

Armanen Rune: Sig: 
Havamal 155.
This I know as an eleventh, when
I accompany my dear friend into combat;
I sing it into the shield, so that he triumphs in battle
And that luck and happiness surrounds him always.
 
Triumph, surrounded with luck and happiness, victory, success, gain, well-being, victorious and happy, into the fray, blessing from above, successful fight, achieved goal, school, and salvation by light, inspiration, soul, and power of the sun, inspiration, soul, life force, wholeness, reliable success, healing, good luck, spiritual completion, and the path of the soul, Rune of the spiritual ray of inspiration, wisdom, and illumination.
“The creative spirit must conquer” (List, 57).
*H2R5
<> 
Interpretation: Wodanic wisdom (Ansuz) leads to triumph (Sig).

Outcome: 7 ½ hours of solid sleep, until Toby woke me up.  When I didn’t get up straight-away, he returned more emphatically.  As it was time to get up anyway, I watched him as I let him out the back door.  He RAN to the hindmost part of the yard where he poops.  Shure enough, Toby was telling me, “DAD, GET THE FUCK UP!  I NEED TO TAKE A SHIT”.  I laughed so hard.

Nice good morning chat with my love my fiancée.

As this season for the Bundesliga begins to wind down, we know the outcome of first place, but now the focus shifts to relegation; “the transfer of a sports team or player to a lower division of a league.”  In the Bundesliga, the bottom two teams on the table are in danger of relegation to 2 Bundesliga, which simply means less money payed to its players. Here is the current table for the Bundesliga:
https://www.bundesliga.com/en/stats/table/
Hamburger and Köln are in danger of relegation.
At the same time, the top two teams in 2 Bundesliga will be promoted to 1 Bundesliga.  Here is their table:

So, Düsseldorf and Nürnberg are up for promotion to 1 Bundesliga and more money.

God/dess Meditation: Paltar, you're the blameless god, gloriously shining god, rising god, restoration god, husband to the faithful Nanda, beloved son of Wodan and Frija.  Just as you restore Mittigart after Godotuom, restore us after we experience our own Godotuoms of life.  Let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help us to avoid evil and seek the good. Inspired by your example, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and our leaving his life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
