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

Elder Rune: Hagalaz: The cosmic seed of potential, a sacred enclosure/shell, shaping, evolution, sacred protection within, holiness, a type of Godotuom; destruction/regeneration, evolution, destructive elements, unavoidable unpleasantness, pruning, potentially destructive but change will occur on its own given time.  Embrace the necessary destruction.  Don't rail against it.  Benefit from it.

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).

The people at Mid Star Lab http://www.midstarlab.com/?fbclid=IwAR1niCj6Uz14HhRSwqZW0KkPI656CsgKiuS40-q0RGG2H4r4nBCS-B0LSNI are ALWAYS accommodating and works well with the VA.  I have two pair of new shoes and insoles coming my way.

Early on Toby’s walk, I wasn’t paying close enough attention, and before I knew it, Toby took it upon himself to investigate something on the other side of the street.  OOOooo, I let Toby know my displeasure.  After that, he had his best, full, 30min walk since late December.
*mildly cold, cloudy, north breeze.

Note to Self; Toby’s 12:30pm insulin and feeding.

½ lb. turkey patty mixed with raw onion + mashed potatoes + cream gravy + corn/peas mixture + 2 scoops of pecan praline ice cream.

Work continues to be unimpressive no matter what I try.

God/dess Meditation: Wodan; Alle-Vater Gott!  Wandering god!  Rune god! Wolf god! Raven god! Wodan!! Husband to Frija, the Alle-Mutter.  Son to Paru and Bezzia, brother to Willo and Wîh; We call out to you, not as slaves or on bended knee, but on our feet and open-armed as befits your offspring. Watch us as we struggle, but the fight and fame must both be ours! Grant us that victory which we win by OUR might and mane! After a life battle-worn, Wodan, grant us access to our Great Ancestral Hall, where we may feast, drink the glorious mead and be merry with our heroes and our Altmâgâ. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, Wodan, as we honor the Wodan that resides in us all!
