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 Runes in your way
Advise the Spirit man today

Armanen Rune: Hagal: 
Havamal 152:
A seventh I learned, if the hall is burning

With fire around bench and comrades;
However bright it burns, I will banish the blaze,
As soon I sing the magic chant.
 
To actively protect/enclose/destroy, danger brought under control, introspection, awareness, eternal change, the Mother of all Runes, the cohesion of the world, die (pronounced ‘dee’ German for ‘the’) Alle Mutter, Frija, that which cares and maintains, protects, and preserves; that which is motherly; wisdom, harmony, salvation, blessing, protects from hail and fire, eternal change, caring and maintaining principle in the Universe, Higher Self, the perfect human being, Divine within, the Rune of humanity, married to the World, Rune of enclosure but contains a potential for growth, builder/architect of the worlds, the macrocosm of the world itself.
“Harbor the All in yourself, and you will control the All” (List, 54).
*H2R1

Interpretation: Masculine strength (Thurisaz) brings active protection (Hagal).

1st check on all fur-kids.  Socks survived his overnight incarceration with the kitty, but of course, he was ready to ZOOM out from there.
<> 
Outcome: 7hrs of uninterrupted sleep!
<> 
Good morning conversation with wifey.
<> 
Call into Air Capital veterinary.  They don’t any openings until Monday of next week.  I took it.
Call into chiropractor telling him/them I won’t be in today.

Socks certainly was ready to huggle on the front porch steps…away from the stoop to his house.
<> 
Toby and I out for a well behaved, late morning, 30min walk.
*sunny, cool, slight NNW breeze.
<> 
Call in from the district court.  I’m letting any further restitution slide due to my lawsuit against her insurance.
<> 
Well the kitty now has a name; Lilly.  The more time I spend with her the more I’m concerned about her health.
<> 
Took down inside Yule decorations.
<> 
For not being at work for 10 days, things seemed to go well, and my new work boots, too.
<> 
Last check on all fur-kids.

1:30am, nighty night, I get to sleep with my wife.

God/dess Meditation: Wodan; Alle-Vater god!  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!
