Armanen Runes in your way

Armanen Rune: Ka: 
Havamal 150.
A sixth one is mine, if a man wounds me
With the root of a trunk still with juice;
Then I am unscathed, the man himself is consumed
By the evil with which he threatened me.
 
Imperviousness, a reversal of fortune, the world tree, preservation of tribe or race, ancestors/ancestry, loyalty, that which is existing, defense, reversal of fortune, the polarity of the male/female principle in the Universe, opposing energies, earthly love, as executive power of balancing justice, art, capability, artist, genius, being favored, procreation, the child, force, that which is established, World Tree/the Irminsul/the All, power, generation, ability and artfulness, sensuality, higher consciousness, return.
“Your blood, your highest possession” (List, 53).
<> 
Interpretation: absolute trust (Ehwaz) leads to imperviousness (Ka).
*woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!

Outcome: Up way too early, in facial/sinus pain…

On the phone early to the VA.  Luckily, they can get me in circa 11AM.

I must admit I watched more of the Trump inauguration that I intended. 
<> 
At the VA, there were some unpleasant people vocally in support of Trump; aggravating.  I was there long enough to actually watch the swearing-in; aggravating.
<> 
My VA visit turned out to be a nurse visit; which is fine with me.  The doctor prescribed an antibiotic and a nasal/sinus rinse.  I was hesitant about the nasal rinse.  It turned out to be oneheluva rush!  I don’t know that it will do much good, but I had to try it.

Call into my Super @ work telling him I won’t be in this evening, and reneged on my Saturday.

The left side of my face is still painful.

I made another Mom Memory to celebrate her 91st birthday.  I was remembering Mother’s goulash.  It was a simple dish containing elbow macaroni, beef and stewed tomatoes.   I made it with my spin on it; whole-wheat elbow macaroni, diced tomatoes and meat alternative with onion flakes. 
*It didn’t suck at all.
<> 
I don’t think Long-tail has much time left for this world.  My hope was that he had a case of worms making him emaciated, but since the Vet sad his poop was negative for worms, then I think his emaciation is beyond treatment.  He may need to be put-down soon.
*tears…mega-tears…I’m so sorry, Little Man.
<> 
Just when I thought the pressure would be relieved from the side of my face…well…it just didn’t.

God/dess Meditation: Frija:
Frija, Great Alle-Mutter; caregiver of Family, Hearth and Home, wife to Alle-Vater Wotan.  Teach us to be patient but not passive; wise but not haughty in our wisdom; far seeing yet not blind to that which is before us. May we nurture life, increase life, and live our own lives more fully. Through you we give honor to our human mothers. Through you we see all the beauty that surrounds us as well. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, FRIJA, as we honor the Frija that resides in us all!
