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.

Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price

Elder Rune: Hagalaz: The cosmic seed of potential, a sacred enclosure/shell, shaping, evolution, protection within, holiness, a type of Godotuom; destruction/regeneration, evolution, destructive elements, unavoidable unpleasantness, pruning, potentially destructive but change will occur on its own given time.  Embrace the necessary destruction.  Don't rail against it.  Benefit from it.

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: Not: 
Havamal 153:
An eighth is mine, to all the Folk

Useful to know in their suffering;
Where hatred rises-up between man and man,
This I can settle fast.
 
Distress, suffering, compulsion of fate, separation, confrontation, strife settled, understanding suffering, settled calm, mind over matter, necessity of fate, misery and death, change of luck as necessity, decision of the Wurtâ, Wurt/Urlag paid-for, cause-effect relations, capability to restructure Wurt/Urlag, That which cannot be averted, the Ur-law that is active in every creature, stress, karmic debt, karmic need, but with outlook for change of karma, banishing ill fortune by means of accepting karma and karmic law, Skuld, Divine justice that balances.
“Use your fate, do not strive against it” (List, 55).

Interpretation: Change (Hagalaz) brings suffering (Not).

1st check on all fur-kids: food, water, litterboxes, shelter.
<> 
Outcome: 7rs of sleep with two wakeups.
<> 
Wifey conversation
<> 
1-egg breakfast sandwich on wheat toast, Canadian bacon and cheese + a banana.
<> 
Toby and I out for a perfektly behaved, late morning, 30min walk.
*sunny, mild, slight breeze.
<> 
On the walk, someone told me of a cat with kittens that have been put out and abandoned in the apartments on McCormick.  Further, I was told they were all hunkered down inside a bush.  Sure enough, I saw momma kitty.
<> 
Wifey to Family Dollar.
<> 
Wifey was more than glad to help corral the kitties.  I grabbed my large kennel and off we went.  Wifey was able to nab the four kittens.  Momma has been more of a challenge.  With the kittens in the kennel, the situation was improved but not over by any means.
<> 
Never before have I taken a 1lb chub of ground turkey and sliced it into 6 pieces in an effort to control portions.
*small turkey patty, fist sized bake potato, peas and carrots from frozen.  Surprisingly enough, my appetite is quite satisfied.
<> 
Wifey back on kitty duty in an effort to nab momma.
<> 
Wifey unsuccessful at corralling momma kitty.  Now the concern turns towards the kittens in the kennel and an upcoming storm.  She may be temporarily bringing them home.
<> 
In spite of everything, not a horrible night at work.  Fingers crossed that my 1st shift colleague comes back from vacation tomorrow.
<> 
Wifey was able to bring kittens home and set them up in the kennel in her office.  It seems she may end up fostering them.
*Hagalaz/Not all over this situation!
<> 
Well hela, the tree guy was here while I was at work to work more on removing the tree in the back yard.  Damn if there weren’t some pieces I could’ve used or let other people use.
<> 
Last check on all fur-kids.
<> 
2am nighty night.  Wifey is sleeping with a whole bunch of kitties in her office tonight.

God/dess Meditation: 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!
