(Wonnemânôd = Blissful month)

Did I just get 8-hours of uninterrupted sleep?  Uninterrupted yes, but for Essie climbing onto me at least three times overnight.  When Toby demands attention, I have to get out of bed.  When Essie demands attention, I just reach over to give her a scratch on the head.

I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me.  I’m grateful for the heritage you've provided. 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

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

AM Armanen Rune: Yr: 
Havamal 160.
A sixteenth I speak if a maid is reluctant,

To wake her lust and desire;
I change the heart of the delightful woman,
Then to me her wishes turn.
 
The waxing and waning moon, lunar-like mutability of the feminine essence, the error-rune, conquering resistance through confusion, eventual perfection, Female mysteries, roots of the World Column, the carrier of genetic material, God-woman, femininity, desire, sensual love, passion, perfection, Mother, chaos from which creation emerges, female principle in the Cosmos, the night, death and instinct, anger, falsehood, error and the oppositions found in humankind, mystical union, night, moon, well grounded, roots of Irminsul from which all life springs, woman as the opposite/balance to man, the descending Divine Feminine being.
“Think about the end” (List, 63).
<> 
Interpretation: Cooperation (Ehwaz) leads to the Female mysteries (Yr).
<> 
Outcome: First breakfast, cold cereal with a banana.

Essie is probably back to 95% healthy.  She’s eating better and acting more like a healthy kitty.  This morning, she wanted to go outside, so I conceded.  After a bit of time in the back yard, I opened the door to find her enticed by something at the fence.  Watching her for a bit, until she was disinterested in whatever had her attention, I called her from the back porch.  Usually, SHE WOULD COME A-RUNNNING!  This time, sauntered all the way back inside.  Running v. walking tells me she’s not quite there, yet.

News said last night and this morning that thunderstorm won’t come until late afternoon.  Thunder and a bit of rain started before 09:00.  It was a mad dash to unhook and put away the electric mower.
<> 
2 loads of laundry
<> 
2nd breakfast; a MEGA breakfast sandwich to include skinny-whole-wheat-bread, cheese, potato coins, ham, two eggs with jalapenos…OMGs YUM!
<> 
Laziness…
<> 
2 more loads of laundry
<> 
Lunch from microwave:
*2 Lean Pockets sandwiches http://www.hotpockets.com/products/chicken-jalape%C3%B1o-and-cheese-pretzel-bread/11609
*Birds Eye Steamfresh https://www.birdseye.com/vegetable-products/chefs-favorites/asian-medley

Thunder and rain-outbursts continue into the afternoon.

Purchased my great-nephew’s B-Day present from Amazon.com.

Dillons for limited things to see me thru the week, but there were some deals I just couldn’t refuse.
Dillons petrol; half tank only
Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market, because I need only a few cans of wet food to see the fur-kids thru the week.

During the lull in the rain, family outside time, but Socks just wasn’t interested staying out from his house.  He was quickly ready to go back inside.
<> 
Ya know, I meant to go to Mother’s grave.  Perhaps it was the rain…dunno.  I guess I haven’t felt the pressing need as I visit with her every Monday morning for ancestor veneration.  I don’t think I have much of a personal need until Memorial weekend.
<> 
Storm are firing up now.  So far they’re outside Wichita and to the north.
<> 
I didn’t give Socks a choice.  I called him home, he came, I scooped him up and placed him in his house.  At least now I know he’s under shelter.

Shower, bed, nighty-night

PM God/dess Meditation: Paltar, you're the blameless god, gloriously shining god, restoration god, beloved son of Wotan and Frija.  Just as you restore Mittigart after Godotuom, restore us after we experience our own Godotuoms of life.  Let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help is to avoid evil, and seek the good. Inspired by your example, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and our leaving his life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
