October/Gelomânôd 17, 2015 Tag der Fruchtbarkeit

​(Gelomânôd = Yellow month)
 
Saw Long-tail eating Socks’ food on the patio table.  This creates a dilemma because now I can’t be leaving any Science Diet out for Socks.  Socks has really created a dilemma.
 
Well shit, I just found out via Facebook that an old, long lost love interest was married on Sept 26 to some bozo; of course, her marrying anyone but me would be a bozo.  Good-bye, Thea.

AM Armanen Rune:  Tyr: 
Havamal 156.
A twelfth one I sing, when I see through the brush
The hanged one swinging from the hemp;
He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.

“Fear not death - it cannot kill you (List, 58).
 
Interpretation:  Control of a situation (Ehwaz) leading to a renewal (Tyr).
*this finalizes it, Thea.
 
Outcome: Sunrise time in the back yard with Essie.  While there, I started considering what needs to be done in getting the Haruc ready for Yule.  At the same time, I’m still trying to figure out what to do with Socks and his disinterest in his own house.  More than being disinterested in his Cat House I really thing he’s more concerned about keeping Stubby at bay.  What I know more than anything is that I don’t trust Socks being alone or unattended in any way in MY house.  I can let him in for a while, perhaps to eat some of Essie’s Science Dirt, but soon enough he has to go back outside.  He blew that trust issue LONG ago when he started indiscriminately spraying. My veterinary, perplexed, said he was probably neutered later in life and is just in the habit now to spray.

*well, my idea for the Haruc won’t work like I had planned, but it CAN work another way.  Now I need more appropriate nails.

Homemade ½ lb. veggie burger well dressed with potato coins for lunch

GODDAMN that took a minute or two.  There was A LOT of work needed to get a test setting for Yule in the Haruc.  Twelve CAN sit in there and do so fairly comfortably.  It’s good to also have banners once again flying.  She almost looks like a Mead-Hall.
 
Essie is the first one to completely be on Science Diet, and the one who needs it most.

​PM God/dess Meditation:  Saga, goddess of history; part and parcel of our ever expanding past.  As we share in Minnatranc, whisper to our hearts of the stories about our gods, our ancestors, our heroes and their glories.  Be the resource for our memories should we ever forget from whence we come.  Gently remind us that we all have a rich history from which to pull.  For it is as we remember and respect the past can we deal with our present, knowing that we will someday have to deal with our spiritual debt.  We honor you, Saga, as a repository for the basis of all that we are, all that we are coming to be, and all that our offspring will inherit from us.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, SAGA, as we honor the Saga that resides in us all.
