Well, it’s a step in the right direction; 6 ½ hours of sleep undisturbed.

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: 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: Harvest (Jera) leads to singing (Laf).
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…
<> 
Outcome: These cooler mornings are amazing.
<> 
1st breakfast; cold cereal.
<> 
Essie in the back yard.
Toby and I out for an enjoyable 1-mile walk.

Calls into:
Bethany Mennonite Brethren Church
North Freson Mennonite Brethren Church
…in an effort to find information on my great-grandparents on my Father’s side who moved out that way.
*NFMBC gave me what I think will be an EXCELLENT resource:
**American Historical Society of Germans from Russia https://ahsgr.site-ym.com/
**interesting find already.  I found out the original spelling of our family name is RIMER, and was changed to REIMER in 1798
** https://ahsgr.site-ym.com/?page=GermanOrigins
*Jera/Laf right here!

Lunch; last of the Hamburger Helper Crunchy Taco with a garden salad thrown-in for good measure.

Essie once again isn’t eating well.
<> 
Good 1st half of shift
Good lunch; Poetic Edda
Good 2nd half of shift; I must be doing something right.  They offered overtime which I accepted for Saturday.  I wasn’t expecting this until AFTER my 90 day probation.

Shower, bed, nighty-night

PM God/dess Meditation: Wotan; Alle-Vater God!  Wandering God!  Rune god! Wolf God! Raven god! Wotan!! 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, Wotan, 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, Wotan, as we honor the Wotan that resides in us all!
