I was in search of good books on Norse Mythology via this link: https://norse-mythology.org/the-10-best-norse-mythology-books/ I had all of them but two. One interested me right off; “Saga of the Volsungs.” I found an inexpensive copy on Amazon. Another one, “Myth and Religion of the North: The Religion of Ancient Scandinavia” by E.O.G. Turville-Petre. Not readily available on the internet unless I wanted to pay $140; um, no! What I did find was a site that had a text only link, and only available on that site, not downloadable or on PDF. I used that site to copy/paste from their site onto a Word file. I increased the font and made it very legible. A $140 book placed in my keeping for free. I’m not saying I’ll read it any time soon, but it was an amazing find.

Over to the Jarl and Jarlskonna of Wichita Hammerstorm. He had some WONDERFUL Hammerstorm conversation. Took Toby with me as they had some hambones for him.

WHAT? No online chat today????????????????

Ya know, there is no need to watch news anymore. Everything is COVID-19 this or COVID-19 that. There’s also no need to watch late night talk shows. They are simply not good without a live studio audience due to COVID-19.

Oh, that’s right, no Dark Shadows tonight.

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!
