Rotten night of sleep.
*well hel, so that’s it.  I forgot to take my night-time meds.  It’s too bad I’ve become so dependent on them as the only way I get a good night’s sleep.

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 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

AM Elder Rune: Algiz (Inv): Outside the favor of Heimo, failure to integrate humanity with the Divine, without divine protection, possible dangers lurking, lack of preparedness, inability to embrace fear, failure to face the ultimate good in all things, tested by the natural Will/Universal voice, without the need for protection, the inability to see/understand/connect with what’s coming, an aspect of death, helplessness.

AM Armanen Rune: Sig: 
Havamal 155.
This I know as an eleventh, when
I accompany my dear friend into combat;
I sing it into the shield, so that he triumphs in battle
And that luck and happiness surrounds him always.
 
Salvation, will, victory, success, gain, well-being, victorious and happy, blessing from above, successful fight, achieved goal, school, and salvation by light, inspiration, soul, and power of the sun, inspiration, soul, life force, wholeness, reliable success, healing, good luck, spiritual completion, and the path of the soul, Rune of the spiritual ray, of inspiration, wisdom, and illumination.
“The creative spirit must conquer” (List, 57).

Interpretation: helplessness (Algiz) leads to wisdom (Sig).

Well hel, I guess I was supposed to have the day off, which worked out well because I was a minute late.  To THEM, that’s a catastrophe.  I’ll be much better off when things settle down a bit and I can fully get onto my weekend shift.

Mowed back yard complete first; no trimming/edging
*cantaloupe break
Mowed front yard complete; no trimming/edging.
*it’s just now 11:00/11AM
*yeah, it all looks like shit right now.  Recent rains made encouraged quite a bit of growth.  With the high temps coming all week, everything should get a chance to slow down the growth and I should be able to get a better looking, edged/trimmed, yard early next week.

PM God/dess Meditation: Paltar, you're the blameless god, gloriously shining god, restoration god, beloved son of Wotan and Frija.  Just as you restore Mittigart after Godotuom, restore us after we experience our own Godotuoms of life.  Let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help is to avoid evil, and seek the good. Inspired by your example, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and our leaving his life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
