Okay, yeah, I went just a wee bit overboard here, but can you tell I’m UBER excited about this? Before I leave Midgard, I have to try to bring something about this to Wichita as there really seems to be no kind of recognition here for the date.
Essie cuddled into me all night. That, however, comes with a hazard. She got sick on the bed. Well, hel, I’m up and at ‘em doing laundry WAY BEFORE sunrise.
1st check on all fur-kids
Plans: practice tests for Work-keys.

Havamal 152.
An eighth is mine, to all the Folk
Useful to know in their suffering;
Where hatred rises up between man and man,
This is can settle fast.
Distress, compulsion of fate, separation, confrontation, understanding suffering settled, calm, 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 stem yourself against it.
“Use your fate, do not strive against it” (List, 55).
Interpretation: Success (Sowulo) that leads to fate (Not).
*PERFEKT!
Outcome: Essie in back yard briefly.
Toby and I out for a sunrise walk. Essie out for equal time.
Call into my former RTAA rep for helping me find practice exams for the Work Ready certificate test tomorrow. She’s so good!
Online help on a project for a long-time Heathen brother in India. I don’t question…
Took Work Key Practice Test #1; Reading for information; I’m at level 5 or 7; whatever that means.

Lunch @ the “Let “Em Eat Brats” food truck downtown. Like an UBER foolish idiot, I showed up with a German flag draped around my shoulders. Arriving at the truck I made sure to ask if this was horribly offensive. I was told by the wonderful people inside the food truck it most definitely was not.

Neighbor, who’s a plumber, agreed to come over to look at and fixed my malfunctioning toilet. Parts and labor he only wanted to charge me $40. I gave him $60.
*He gave me the bad news that Fish had to be put-down due to fluid on the lungs. OMGs I cried!
**Fishy certainly got his guidance in journeying (Sowulo) as he accepted that which could not be averted (Not).
**I LOVED THAT CAT SO MUCH!
**many, MANY tears…
Separated recyclables
Essie in the backyard for some sunset outdoor time.
What the hel happened to the evening?

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez…
Yeah, okay, so I’m not going to make the other two practice exams…
I have no idea when I fell asleep in that gods-forsaken green chair.

PM God/dess Meditation: Scata, winter goddess, fleet on your skis and let me be the game you bag with you bow. Stun me with your grace and beauty, tuck me in the skin-sack at your side, and then take me to your home where wolves howl. There, show me the crisp freedom of winter and wilderness. Just as you were ready, willing and able to obtain your revenge on the Ensi for the killing of your father, Thiazi, grant us the same ferocity in our lives. Direct us to be strong, able and favored of you. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, SCATA, as we honor the Scata that resides in us all!
