Plans: back to classes
NOTE: Hmmm…there was a bit of lite snow this morning as I went to get Socks from the Haruc; however, not enough to effect class, I’m sure.
*Yup, as expected, the guy I voted for in the City Council race didn’t even come close
http://www.kansas.com/2013/02/26/2693073/blick-leads-district-4-race-for.html . Now I have to choose between to Republicans. I think I already know which one I’ll vote for in the general election, BUT, I bit more research is in order. Yes, I vote in EVERY election!
All-Father God! Rune god! Wolf God! Raven god! WODAN!! 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, Wodan, 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 HAIL, WODAN, as we honor the Wodan that resides in us all!

Algiz (U): Protection, Heimo (the genetic connection between gods and the Folk), guardian of Ensiweg, the Rainbow Bridge, protection, expansion of consciousness, divine realizations, an awakening, drawing on the natural Will, invocation/supplication to the gods, AKA Elhaz, the Elk, or swan.
Or
Algiz (R): Outside the favor of Heimo, failure to integrate humanity with the Divine, without divine protection, possible dangers lurking, lack of preparedness, without the need for protection, the inability to see/understand/connect with what‘s coming, an aspect of death, helplessness.
Or both

A third I know: if sore need should come
of a spell to stay my foes;
when I sing that song, which shall blunt their swords,
nor their weapons nor staves can wound.
Interpretation: My protection is my own (Algiz) encouraged with the will to act (Thorn).
Outcome: Toby and I trudged-on despite the snow on the ground; still pretty deep in places. Toby violated early, slowly came back for his face-to-face berating, then continued on with good behavior.
Good stuff in CNC Lathes
Home for lunch

My WINDERUL niece called me about someone wanting to give away a couch. The “someone” is a lady for whom I preformed her wedding; one of my best weddings, too, I might add. My niece Facebook emailed me a picture of it and OMGs…it’s green black and white; the colors of Rheinwood!
Yummerz dinner: ½lb hamburger steak, mashed potatoes with gravy and broccoli!

Eger und Râhana, mysterious keepers of the deep hall at ocean’s bottom, host to the drowned and the sea lost. Your dwelling might be thought sad and gloomy, but you are known to be kind and hospitable ale givers. In your goodness then, cheer us when waves of misfortune pound our life’s fragile boats to the bottom. For even at the bottom, there is
warmth, cheer and hope. Be our assurance; be our inspiration to strive on despite the swells and swirls of fate. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, EGER UND RÂHANA, as we honor the Eger und Râhana that resides in us all!
