AM Armanen Rune:  Tyr: 
Havamal 156.
A twelfth one I sing, when I see through the brush
The hanged one swinging from the hemp;
He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.

Interpretation:  Alle-Mutter (Berkana) leads to a rebirth (Tyr).

Outcome: Happy 7th birthday, Toby!

Ya know, anyone else would have killed the cricket on the wall beside me here in the computer room.  I refuse to do that.

Good AM work; workload almost full.
Good @ home for lunch to get Toby inside, anticipating a late-afternoon storm.
Good PM work; engine mounts and large ring projects.
*storm showed up around 3:30PM/15:30
*shitty attitudes remain.

Tree guy has been back out here taking out a couple of threatening limbs over the driveway.
<> 
Heavy rain, light hail, thunder and lightening on the way home.
The situation became even more intense as the afternoon progressed; a bit of pea-size hail.  Moved the Vue underneath a tree.
<> 
Pizza from frozen and a garden salad
<> 
I made a Mom memory!  Sandwich spread to include turkey bologna, hard-boiled eggs, dill-pickles with mustard, ran through an old fashioned meat grinder and mixed well.  OMGs YUM!
<> 
This storm is really hanging-on!  All fur kids are safe and under shelter.  I have no idea where Stubby went, but he showed up fairly wet.  I fed him and he camped out in his box.
<> 
I went out to make sure Socks was okay.  While there, a hail blew in.  OMGs, I didn’t realize how loud it could be in there.  Socks was not letting me go anywhere.
<> 
Severe weather warnings all night.
<> 
It seems the storm may be winding-down a bit. 
<> 
Shower, bed, nighty-night.

PM God/dess Meditation:  Holle, you who seem to be the perfect counterpart to Alle-Vater Wotan.  Just like Alle-Vater, you come to us with many names.  Just like Alle-Vater, you appear to us with many faces.  You have become known to us through place-names, fairy-tales, sagas, legends, poetry, customs, traditions, mythology, and yes, even food.  You are the young maiden.  You are the Old Crone.  You are everything in between.  You reward the diligent worker.  You punish the slothful.  Your Spirit permeates humankind.  We recognize you as a German Goddess!  Alle Mutter Holle, Goddess holy and wise, We give you a most HEART-FELT HEIL, as we honor the Holle that resides in us all. 
*C. Reimer/V. Elmersson
