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.

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

Armanen Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Armanen Runes in your way
Advise the Spirit man today
<> 
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, the end, 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: Social interactions (Mannaz) brings an awakening (Gibor).
<> 
1st check on all fur-kids.
<> 
Outcome: 7hrs of sleep with one MASSIVE hamstring cramp overnight.
<> 
Wifey conversation.

Once again, I had to roust Toby out from his doghouse.  He was sound asleep.  Coming into the house, I could tell he just wasn’t himself.
<> 
Here in Wichita, officially 2.1” of snow.  20min away in Mt. Hope, 6”.  Kingman got 10”.
<> 
Call into veterinary telling them about Toby’s lethargic morning.  I’ll watch him to day, but if he isn’t better by tomorrow, I will bring him in.  I inquired about opening tomorrow.  They said not to worry.  They’ll work him in as needed. 
<> 
Yeah, I’m a worry-wort as a fur-dad.
<> 
Brunch sandwich + a banana.
<>
Essie is certainly in need of more validation since Lily.
<> 
Toby and I out for a short walk to the north end of the cul-de-sac.  He needs to get out in spite of being down a bit; lethargic, no appetite.
<> 
Meat piers and corn for lunch.
<> 
It was an ABOLUTELY shitty night at work!  I don’t even dare try to enumerate. If it wasn’t for the good contacts I maintain at work it would’ve been impossible.
*Mannaz/Gibor
<> 
Wifey said Toby seems to be perking-up a bit.
<> 
Last check on all fur-kids.
<> 
2am nighty night.  I get to sleep with my wifey.
<> 
God/dess Meditation: (alternate Wodanstag) Heimo, HEAR ME!  Gellanhorn’s god, son of nine mothers and whitest of all gods.  You’re the genetic link between the gods and humankind. From your home in Himilberg, your keen eyes and sharp ears guard Ensigart, the world of the gods. As you stand so alert for the approach of giants, remind us that we must also watch for our own encroaching evil. Let weakness, cowardice, lies and dishonor be barred from Ensiwëg, the Rainbow Bridge, leading to our heart’s abode. Be a model for vigilance, that we may rise to the best that is in us, and someday join the Noble Gods in their shining homes. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, HEIMO, as we honor the Heimo that resides in us all!
