A thirteenth I mention, when I sprinkle the son,
The young one, with holy water,
If once he faces the foe, then he cannot fall,
No sword can wound him so he collapses in the dust.

Toby and I out for a well behaved, late/mid-morning, 30min walk.
*mostly overcast, rain-cooled, slight south breeze.
<>
On the back-side of the walk, my Sister’s daughter calls to tell me my Sister has passed. I hurried home to meet them at the nursing home. WOW! Mixed emotions about my sister’s passing; sadness/comfort/relief/joy…
*Eihwaz/Bar (Eihwaz/inner strength for me, Bar/blessing, for my sister).
*my wife has been EXTRORDINARILY supportive!
<>
I posted on Fb about my sister’s passing and the condolences POURED in!

Not a horrible night at work. Super, Union Steward, and most 2nd shift colleagues were extremely supportive; save one asshole who totally insulted me by a comment about his desire to have saved my sister with his “products”. I practically SCREAMED at him, “TO HELL WITH YOUR PRODUCTS!” His “products” according to him are the magic elixir that cures all ills; kind of like the traveling snake-oil salesman of the old wild west. I have no intent to talk to this guy ever again until he apologizes.
<>
Amazing! Bereavement is now paid!? I don’t remember bereavement EVER being paid. Thank the Union!

Bank; I should’ve known better than to support England in a bet in the 3rd place match. It’s only $5, but it’s the embarrassment of it all.

Last check on all fur-kids.

Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver messenger on high. You’re the measurer and teller of time. You’re the counterpart to Sunna, the feminine aspect of the sun. As you fly silently on your way reflect into our souls the glory of the High Ones that we might aspire to the realms of the gods. Bathe our world in soft brightness, and whisper to our souls of joyous realms beyond our knowing. Mano, let us see the goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!
