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.

Havamal 148:
A third I take, when danger threatens,
To bind the enemies through magic:
Thus, I dull the steel of the furious opponent.
Like the staff, his sword does not cut anymore.
Donar, deflecting an opponent, making ineffective, protection from danger, enemies bound through magic, impermeable, an awakening, the power to turn, the divine will to act, the law of eternal reincarnation, power to become, Return, new emergence from what’s apparently old and dried-up, formative power of the seed, the thunderbolt, targeting goals, activity and the phallus, mental telepathy, projection of the will, fierce protection, psychic attack & defense, penetrating time & space, a constant renewal of life in rebirth, Rune of opposing polarities and of joining opposites, binding of and victory over the enemy.
“Preserve your ego” (List, 51).

Rune Lesson: Admitted bias for Toby
There is the potential for my Vue to be both the sacred enclosure and destructive as well. Coupled with Thorn’s protective aspect, however, the sacred enclosure remains so that there is safety if I go get Toby later today. Toby’s change is coming, too, with an AMAZING awakening!

Easy drive to K-State in Manhattan, Ks.
I cannot say enough good things about K-State. Dr. Ewald is amazing to the point that she explained EVERYTHING, and gave me a laminated sheet of Toby’s scheduled prescriptions. She’s going to be gone for a few weeks, but I’m being handed off to a Dr. Collins, who did Toby’s surgery.
The drive back was a problem.
I must’ve missed a turn off. Rather than take me back to where I was, the GPS took me thru Abilene https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abilene,_Kansas. ABILENE! Pit stop in Durham https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_Kansas and talked to a couple of really nice ladies who LOVED Toby. I think Toby was really glad to be home.

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!
