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.

Armanen Rune: Gibor: 
Havamal 163.
An eighteenth I learned, yet I would never
Let a woman or maid know it,
For everyone knows what’s best for himself-
This leads me to the conclusion of the songs-
The one it shall be then, that lies in my arms
As betrothed wife and as sister.
 
The scald, awakening, passion, mystery, comprehension of the diving from below upward; from humanity outward, secrecy, gift/giver, gift of life, that which is best for the individual, fulfillment, sacred marriage, being ONE with the sister soul, protection against evil forces, being/seeing the Divine, the cosmic consciousness and the divine principle, two forces having a singular origin, the spiritual ego, death-life cycle, protection against evil forces, union of the gods and the World, the uninterrupted chain in the cycle of eternal returns, the Creator and the Created, the deepest mysteries of the Universe, the end.
“Man, be one with God” (List, 67).
*H3R6

Interpretation: trust (Ehwaz) leads to passion (Gibor).
*wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow…
<> 
1st check on all fur-kids
<> 
Outcome: 7hrs of undisturbed sleep…perfekt!
<> 
1st breakfast: A banana and a fruit smoothie
<> 
Good morning, Sorcha.  We both seem overwhelmed with emotion today over yesterday’s occurrence.
<> 
She woke up with a migraine and I woke up with a backache.
<> 
2nd breakfast: typical breakfast sandwich; two eggs and ham on whole wheat toast
<> 
Call into VA tele-health to try to get into my online account.  They want me to change my password and I cannot for the life of me remember the old one to create a new one.
<> 
Toby and I out for a well behaved, early afternoon, slow, walk…a bit slower, backache…but better.
*mild, partly sunny, slight north breeze
<> 
WOW!  My Sorcha had a WONDERFUL Rune reading she shared with me.
<> 
Side bends, 3 sets @ 40lbs
Standing, 3 sets of 6 @ 2/25lbs
  • Forearm curls
  • Bicep curls
  • Overhead triceps extension
  • Shoulder press
  • Standing shoulder row
Plank, 3 sets @ 30secs each (a bit painful, but doable)
<> 
Lunch: battered fish from frozen, corn/peas mixture, garden salad
<> 
Back still hurts a bit going into work.  Three Tylenol Extra Strength and three ibuprofens later, and…better.
Our General Supervise really is an ass.  I fully believe he knows NOTHING of our processes, so he has to harass us on simple shit.
Shift didn’t start well.  There were some parts I didn’t shape correctly, but they were fixable.  My 1st shift colleague had to fix them.  I deburred them and put them in the freezer.
Stayed in layout and drill all night.
Dumb-ass christian, washing-up in the bathroom at the same time I was, getting ready to go home, started asking me about the tattoos on my arm.  I explained their significance and the gods they represent.  He said they were fake gods.  OOOOOOooooooo…wrong thing to say to ME. 
*So, YOUR god is real and mine are fake.  How do you know yours is real? 
*I certain, he said, I believe he’s real.
*So, you don’t KNOW, you just believe.  There’s a HUGE difference between knowing and believing…and you call YOUR god real while mine are fake.  Actually, I think the opposite…Jehovah is fake and Wotan is real.  So, it’s just a matter of what we choose to believe. 
*Typically, he walks away telling me he still loves me. 
*Yeah right.
<> 
WOW!  Sorcha and I are really planning a rendezvous…I am SO ready of this!
*Ehwaz/Gibor

Last check on all fur-kids.

God/dess Meditation: Mano, god of the moon:
Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high.  You’re the measurer and teller of time.  You’re the counterpart to Sunna, the feminine aspect of the sun.  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!
