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: Jera: Harvest, 12th Rune of the Futhark, the number 12, cycles, a turning point, cause and effect, the Rune of return, two halves of a cyclic whole, harmony-in-movement-in-balance, improvement, expansion, growth, progress, patience, fruition of plans, the mystic union between Earth and the Cosmos, the result of a previous action, appropriate reward for the right (or wrong) action.
*A2R4; Aett 2 root 4, Yggdrasil’s root of destruction

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: Hagal: 
Havamal 152:
A seventh I learned, if the hall is burning
With fire around bench and comrades;
However bright it burns, I will banish the blaze,
As soon I sing the magic chant.
 
To actively protect/enclose/destroy, danger brought under control, introspection, awareness, eternal change, the Mother/Center of the Rune Tree, the cohesion of the world, die (pronounced ‘dee’ German for ‘the’) Alle Mutter, Frija, that which cares and maintains, protects, and preserves; that which is motherly; wisdom, harmony, salvation, blessing, protects from hail and fire, eternal change, caring and maintaining principle in the Universe, Higher Self, the perfect human being, Divine within, the Rune of humanity, married to the World, Rune of enclosure but contains a potential for growth, builder/architect of the worlds, the macrocosm of the world itself.
“Harbor the All in yourself, and you will control the All” (List, 54).
*H2R1; Halbdutzend 2, root 1, Irminsul’s root of destruction

Rune Lesson: Jera tells us we’re at a turning point.  In any case, we turn it all over to the All Mother.  She is the one who balances the scales of any cycle.  In her comes improvement as we are actively protected in her.
<> 
1st check on all fur-kids: food, water, litterboxes, shelter.
<> 
Outcome: 7hrs of sleep, one wakeup, and all sorts of Lily loving.
<> 
A banana and a 2-egg open faced breakfast sandwich
<> 
Brief wifey conversation
<> 
Lite house keeping

Toby and I out for a late morning, perfectly behaved, 3-block roundy.
*warm, partly cloudy, refreshing south wind.
<> 
Bank

Toby’s 11:30am feeding and insulin before hitting the road.
<> 
Update on Toby:  His examination; remarks from discharge papers.  Toby's incisions appear to be healing well and there are no signs of active inflammation in either eye.  His intraocular pressure within the right eye is elevated today, indicating that he has glaucoma. We administed dorzolamide 2%/timolol 0.5% ophthalmic solution to help decrease the pressure in his right eye, which lowered his pressure into a safe range. We believe the pressure should continue to decrease. The remainder of Toby's ophthalmic examination was unremarkable
*I’m glad I took some brown-bag food for me, and treats for Toby
<> 
Dillons actually came thru on Toby’s Rx.  Walmart was already closed, which ended up being a good thing, because on the Good Rx app, Dillons had the better price anyway.

Call into bruzzer

Yesterday’s slow cooked pork chop, baked potato, OODLES of gravy, and strawberries
<> 
I’m glad I checked my bank statement.  Drive-thru teller put my $88 into the wrong account.  Better now.

Toby’s midnight feeding and insulin

Last check on all fur-kids.

​God/dess Meditation: (alternate Wodanstag) Heimo, HEAR ME!  Gellanhorn’s god, son of nine mothers and whitest of all gods.  You’re the genetic link between the gods and humankind. From your home in Himilberg, your keen eyes and sharp ears guard Ensigart, the world of the gods. As you stand so alert for the approach of giants, remind us that we must also watch for our own encroaching evil. Let weakness, cowardice, lies and dishonor be barred from Ensiwëg, the Rainbow Bridge, leading to our heart’s abode. Be a model for vigilance, that we may rise to the best that is in us, and someday join the Noble Gods in their shining homes. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, HEIMO, as we honor the Heimo that resides in us all!
