AM Armanen Rune: Laf: 
Havamal 158.
A fourteenth I sing to the assembled Folk
When naming the divine names;
The Aesir and Alves and their various kinds
No one can spell out without learning.

“First learn to steer, then dare the sea-journey” (List, 60).
<> 
Interpretation: Fertility (Inguz) leads to fate (Laf).

Outcome: rain overnight

5AM 1-mile walk with Toby completely on the retractable.

It’s only slightly raining.  I don’t worry nearly as much for Toby in the rain since I know he goes back to the garden shed.

REALLY good AM orientation @ Spirit.
Spirit fed us pizza and salad for lunch.
An even BETTER PM orientation.  Personal time off, alone, i.e. sick leave and vacation 40/80 is evidence of union activity.  I didn’t’ hesitate to sign up FOR the union.  At the end, we were taken out to our shops: PERFEKT!
<> 
Came home to the Weaver secretary telling me she had a check for me.  I made a mad-dash out there thinking it was the bonus check, but it was only back-pay that was already automatically deposited.

Dinner; tilapia with a garden salad.
<> 
A wee bit of women’s Olympic volleyball; Russia Federation v Japan; Russia won, 3 sets to nil

PM God/dess Meditation: Forsizo; Heil to you, Forsizo, son of Paltar and Nanda!  We call out to you in our time of legal need.  You’re the god of justice and reconciliation.  We know that justice is a double-edged ax.  On the one side, if our argument is just, grant us the proper conclusion.  On the other side, if our argument is fraudulent, mete-out justice accordingly.  Whether in the court of legal proceedings or the court of public opinion, grant us the justice according to the rightness of our deeds.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, FORSIZO, as we honor the Forsizo that resides in us all!
*C. Reimer/V. Elmersson
