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: Gebo: The mystical union of gift and giver, repay gift for gift, generosity, a fair exchange between people or gods and the Luck that accompanies it; freely exchanged, obligations, contracts, relationships, sometimes sexual, sacrifice, and hospitality, do not take more than we are willing to give, the voluntary sacrifice of resources.
*A1R7; Aett 1, root 7, Yggdrasil’s root of creation

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: Ka:
Havamal 151:
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, 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).
*H1R6; Halbdutzend 1, root 6, Irminsul’s root of creation

Rune Lesson: Of gifting, the Havamal says:
41. With gifts, friendships should be strengthened, 
Such as with weapons or fine clothing:
Those who exchange gifts will always be friends,
So long as they give and take in turn.
42. A man should always remain loyal to his friends,
Giving a gift for a gift, sharing in their laughter,
But repaying lies for lies.
Gifts given with the proper intent, really DOES create imperviousness, and preserves the tribe!

1st check on all fur-kids: food, water, litterboxes, shelter.
<> 
Outcome: 7hrs of sleep, one wakeup, and where the hela is my Lily?
<> 
A banana and an open-faced breakfast sandwich
<> 
Wifey conversation
<> 
Watered Agathagart, the straw-bale garden, and backyard shrubs and front yard shrubs.
*well hela, there’s Socks on the patio, a bit bedraggled, but he’s there.  I made sure to leave him some food in the breezeway.
<> 
Chat with Chewy.com.  I ordered the wrong size of Revolution https://www.revolutionplus.com/ .  They chatted with their pharmacist who chatted with my veterinary and approved Revolution for the heavier cat.
<> 
Toby and I out for a 2-block, late morning, well behaved, a bit sluggish, walk.  I also showed him off to a few neighbors who have been concerned about him.
*mostly cloudy, very warm, east wind.
<> 
Toby’s noon meds
<> 
Leftover Hobo Stew for lunch; catsup added for more flavor.
<> 
Wifey to post-office
Bank

Toby’s 3pm meds

My issue of Uncle Tom’s Cabin arrived from eBay!  So, my questionable racial content collection is complete:
Uncle Tom’s Cabin
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Gone with the Wind
Blazing Saddles
<> 
A bit more Hobo Stew; I really like this batch
<> 
Toby’s 7pm meds
<> 
Lilly and Jasmine seem to be tolerating each other better.  Of course, both of them tolerate Toby extremely well.  Socks?  Well, who know about Socks anymore?  Once again, he’s disappeared.
<> 
2hrs of Ghost Whisperer on Start TV (OTA); yup, I’ve seen them both.

Toby’s midnight meds

Last check on all fur-kids.

God/dess Meditation: Wednesday, Wodan’s Day 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!
