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 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
<> 
AM Elder Rune: Teiwaz (Inv): Outside the favor of Ziu; the god of honor, dishonor, without victory in conflict, injustice, imbalance, mismanagement, failure, unbalanced, dishonesty, naiveté compromised judgments, defeat, warfare without purpose, disengagement with the sacrificial Self, legal dilemma, disorder/chaos, cowardice, the inability to fight for what’s right, void of the will to succeed, double standards.
<> 
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: Laf: 
Havamal 158.
A fourteenth I sing to the assembled Folk

When naming the divine names;
The Aesir and Alves and their various kinds
No one can spell out without learning.
 
Determination, learned knowledge, singing before the All, presentation, Urlag; life fate and destiny, life as law, life following the law, experience, test, temptations by life-circumstances, water, sea, good management, test of life, school of the lives, relations, defeat and the laws of nature, life and primal law, psychic & spiritual awareness, cosmic flow, seeds of thought, the etheric part of the body, initiation that experiences life on earth as a continuous process of initiation, The Cosmic Ocean.
“First learn to steer, then dare the sea-journey” (List, 60).
<> 
Interpretation: dishonor (Teiwaz) leads to learned knowledge (Laf)
<> 
Outcome: After 5 ½ hours of sleep, up for a bladder call @ sunrise.  These fur-kids need to get on a 2nd shift regiment and realize just because I’m UP @ sunrise doesn’t mean I STAY up @ sunrise.  I’m sure it’ll happen soon enough, but until then…ARGH!
<> 
My health by the numbers:
Weight: 252.6
Glucose: 114
BP: 135/72
Pulse: 79
<> 
1st breakfast; an apple w/ peanut-butter 
<> 
Toby and I out for a well behaved 1-mile walk @ 9AM
*warm, humid, south breeze.
Coolness will happen soon enough, but not soon enough for me.
<> 
Put out my Autumnal Wreath on the porch.
<> 
I’m so sad, I was told on FB I was not of this guys’ Folk because I am much more liberal with the understanding of what it takes for one to practice Heathenry as a Folk religion.  My opinion is, yes, it’s better to have SOME KIND of proven Germanic ancestry.  As to how much?  100%?  50%?  25%?  10%?  5%?  >5%?  Who knows?  I think even the most minute percentage could cry out for satisfaction.
*copy/pasted this onto Fb.
*Teiwaz/Laf right here, IN A MAJOR WAY!
* dishonor (them)(Teiwaz) leads to learned knowledge (me)(Laf)
<> 
2nd breakfast; my usual breakfast sandwich.
<> 
Toby and Essie are playing the inside/outside/inside game today.
<> 
OMGs. LOTS of positive feedback and support on Fb!
<> 
Lunch from frozen, with a fresh garden salad thrown-in for good measure.
<> 
Sent-in my health numbers to my online VA account
<> 
Good 1st half of shift; I don’t know WHY it took so long to do those parts, but it is what it is.
Lunch; The Poetic Edda
Good 2nd half of shift; it sure does get lonely in there by myself.
<> 
Okay, I GOTTA be in bed by 01:00…
<> 
Shower, bed, nighty-night.
<> 
See?  MADE IT!

PM God/dess Meditation: 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!
