(Hermanod = Hoar month)

NOTE:  Now why in the hel am I doing that.  I don’t feel sick, at least I
don’t think so.

Plans: work 10hrs

AM Prayer: Manostac/Monday, we pray to Mano, male aspect and god of the
moon:

Greetings to you, Mano, glorious male aspect of the moon; silver
messenger on high.  You’re the measurer and teller of time.  As you fly silently
on your way reflect into our souls the glory of the High Ones that we might
aspire to the realms of the gods. Bathe our world in soft brightness, and
whisper to our souls of joyous realms beyond our knowing. Mano let us see the
goodness within us and without us, all the nights and days of our lives.  WE
GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!

AM Armanen Rune: Not: 
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.


Separation, 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, separation, 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.

Interpretation: Evolution (Hagalaz) leading to fate (Not).

Outcome: I hope my evolution doesn’t include illness.

Good AM work.  Sickness gone.

Home for lunch.  Socks was a bit undecided whether he wanted to in or out as
I was trying to leave.  He almost made me late back to work.

Good PM work.  Hair cut and beard trim were met with rave reviews.

Toby for a short walk.  Essie on tether.

I have everything set in my garden where I want them.  My plan is six tomato
plants, six pepper plants, four short rows of peas and however I can work in
some beets.  

My Pocket Havamal from Amazon.com showed up today!  Now all that’s left to
arrive is my snake shirt for Patrick’s Day.

When I saw Orange and White Kitty on the porch I quickly went to the back
yard to cover up the access way that has been opened up at the bottom of the
back porch thanks to Toby’s incessant digging.  Poor Orange and Whit Kitty will
just have to find another place to stay.

Somewhat disturbing phone call from OKC, but everything’s fine now.
*Hagalaz and Not right here!

Nighty-night

PM Prayer: 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!

Plans: DAY OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOTES: Poor Socks was out all night while I was “sleeping it off”…hehe

EVERY MORNING now, I wake up with no grip in my left hand; the hand I mostly
use for the pneumatic tools a work.  A bit of stretching improves it some.

Infiltration of the HCWw by another group that makes fun of other
groups…JEEZ…but we, the administrators, are fighting back by banning them. 


Picture
AM Prayer: AM Prayer: Saturn’s Day/Saturday/Tag der Fruchtbarkeit, we pray
to Frouwa and Ing-Frô :

Frouwa, most lovely of all goddesses; who could not love you?  Women as their own inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty, passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, FROUWA, as we honor the Frouwa that resides in us all!

Ing-Frô
, you’re the Great God of Fridu (all-encompassing safety and protection), Ar (peace, good seasons), the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the god of this World. When the day to day wears us down remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and
certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing-Frô, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ING-FRÔ, as we honor the Ing-Frô that resides in all of us!

AM Elder Rune: 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.

Interpretation: Void of protection but remain calm.

Outcome: Rough start this morning because of a bit of drinking last night.

I exhausted all of my prescriptions today; hence, today, I am w/o protection (Algiz) and I am calm (Not).  In a way, I intend to rid my body of any effect of medicine prior to my doctor’s visit coming up next month in an effort to have blood work done with a clean slate.

FedEx for copies
Post office

Toby for his late morning .6 mile walk.  Neither Essie nor Socks were interested in outside.

Got two tickets to the Crown Uptown Dinner Theater’s final showing, of “Godspell” on Feb 22nd http://www.crownuptown.com/ 

I had to make my sincere apology to the Heathen Community World-wide:
“I owe this community a HUGE apology. I acted hastily when I heard that
someone in this group who also belonged to another group, was taking our posts
and making fun of them on the other group. With that, I started removing anyone
associated with the group, Do You Even Heathen, bro? I am now trying to work
with the other moderators in trying to fix what I screwed up. Again, I
APOLOGIZE.”
*Algiz and Not right here!
*wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeew…
*JsMrFnChst!  It just went on and on and on…

Ya know, I spend a lot of time on the Internet.  Sometimes, like today, I REALLY wonder why.  Then I remind myself of a simple goal set so long ago; that is, for my words to live on long after I pass on to the Ancestors.  There is no better place to do that than the Internet.  I’m sure the memory of me will live on with family, nieces and nephews; possibly even great-nieces and great-nephews.  Beyond that, any memory of me will fade with the shades of time.  To most people, that would be good enough.  Not for me.  On the Internet, time does not fade one’s words or thoughts.  Placed on the Internet, these things are as permanent as the stones at Stonehenge.  THAT’S what I want.  Memory of me will pass.  My ashes may be tossed to the four winds.  My words, thoughts, and
beliefs will go on forever.  Someone will find them on the  Internet.  Hopefully someone will see that I have tried to live an honorable life as possible; not a perfect one, but one that has been honest and heart-felt.  On the Internet I place my eternal being.

With the sudden rush of cats hanging around, and the recycling bins the target of setting territory, I had to rearrange the outdoor recycling area.  I had to pull the bins off from the ground, put them on a table and cover it with vinyl.  We’ll see how it works.

OMGs!  I left Essie alone on her tether without my protection!  I go out to check on her and I see the ODDEST situation.  Essie, calm, on the porch and off her tether.  Socks and FAT CAT nearby, calm as well.  Was Socks keeping Fat Cat away from Essie.  I have to think so.
*Algiz and not right here, too.

OMGs!  The Bundesliga is back on: http://www.bundesliga.com/en/ 
Bayern München v Freiburg 4:0
Braunschweig v Hamburg 4:2
Dortmund v Frankfurt 4:0
Bremen v M’Gladbach 1:1
Hoffenheim v Stuttgart 4:1

Picture
PM Prayer: Saga, you’re the goddess of history; part and parcel of our ever expanding past.  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 some day 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.

Rush home for lunch…it’s a much warmer day than it has been…Toby in back yard.

Good PM work

Called VA for doc appointment…March 21st

More unpleasantness on HCWw…ruling with an iron fist…HAHAHAHAHA

I FUCKING HATE HAVING TO DEAL WITH CONVERGYS AND MY TAX INFO THAT’S NOT HERE YET!  They are so inept!  Having a Hindi accent doesn’t help matters either.

The snow is mostly melted, which made for a very easy ½ mile walk with Toby.
Essie on her tether.
Socks remains a slouch.

A load of laundry

PM Prayer: Forsizo; Heil to you, son of Paltar and Nanda!  We call out to you in our time of legal need.  You’re the god of justice and reconciliation.  We know that justice is a double-edged ax.  On the one side, if our argument is just, grant us the proper conclusion.  On the other side, if our argument is
fraudulent, mete-out justice accordingly.  Whether in the court of legal proceedings or the court of public opinion, grant us the justice according to the rightness of our deeds.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, FORSIZO, as we honor the Forsizo that resides in us all!

Interpretation: Gift (Gebo) that leads to a change of luck (Not).

Outcome: SLEPT-IN!!!!!!!

Toby on his 1-mile walk.  I didn’t see that cat.  Mr. Opportunist saw it
though and was off like a rocket!  Calling him back, Sir Toby had reposed and
was very contrite.  He sat right in front of me and took his verbal berating. 
He was so funny I couldn’t hardly finish it.  We finished the walk in fine fashion.

Essie on tether.

Family front yard time

It’s too nice for late January.

WOW!  European “Mini” Football:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kf5I8GSbcI

Toby’s out back.  Socks is in the Cat House.  Essie’s on her tether.  I’M
ALONE INSIDE!

Online literally all morning…

It’s such a nice day and it’s going to turn bitterly cold again so I wanted to get outside for a while.  I took Toby to Lake Afton http://www.sedgwickcounty.org/lake_afton/; it’s something like 20-30 min outside Wichita.  It’s nothing large but easily accessible.  We spent a couple of hours checking out different areas, letting Toby do what dogs do naturally.  The best place was Cottonwood Grove; somewhat secluded with a good view and a viable exit if needed.  I think Toby really enjoyed himself, wore him out, though.  He could not easily tear himself away from the shoreline, but he minded very well the whole time.

our doors daily from the wonderful Universe in which we live. Though our misfortunes may rise and fall like the tides, the chance of prosperity, like the eternal sea brimming with fish, is still there. Like the salt-sea spray, awaken us to the possibilities that surround us, so that our nets may be cast wide and return full of life’s gifts. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, NIRDU, as we honor the Nirdu that resides in us all!

Got right on to cleaning house.

Brother came over to make an offer on some of my machinist’ tools.  With my

PM Prayer: All you gods and goddesses bless and keep your Holy Folk. From the cold shadows of the glaciers to the colder shadows of space, always, we have been your people. Guide and guard your North Folk as you did in ages past. Wodan, give wisdom and craft to wits shaped by ice and fire that our foes be
foxed. Donar, give us strength and the will to use it. Ing-Fro and Frouwa, give full wombs so that bodies will be found for the souls of heroes. Let your Northern Folk grow in number and in power, so that our kind may live, love, survive and thrive, not just today, not for a millennium, but for ever and ever!

 Trip to Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, picked up an application, went home,
filled it out and returned it after lunch.

It’s mid-morning, since I was in the area I stopped by my childhood church http://lorraineavenue.ks.us.mennonite.net/.  I haven’t talked to Tom or Lois for a long time…damn the good
luck…no one came to the door.

On the way home I stopped off at my veterinarian’s to discuss Toby’s
persistent scratching.  I told him, Toby doesn’t have fleas, I’ve checked him,
and he’s not airborne allergic, because he hasn‘t responded to the Benadryl.  We
both agreed on food allergies.  My veterinarian GAVE me a 10-day Rx and a recipe
to try for two-weeks before I go out to buy hypoallergenic dog-food.

Late evening check on Socks.  I got a wild hair and decided to lie down on
the carpeted floor with him.  As soon as he settled down he settled in to
curling up next to me.  OMGs, how long has it been since he and I have done

PM Prayer: 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 Ensiwë g,
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!

(Gelomond = Yellow month)

Plans: lot’s of preparation for tomorrow’s first day at work.

Picture
AM Prayer: Ziustac/Tuesday, we pray to Ziu:
Ziu, husband to Zisa, Great God of bravery, one-handed god, you chained the Fenris Wolf that threatened the worlds. We can’t do that, but we can do other things, some
ordinary, others heroic. Remind us of your bravery and your sacrifice. Give us the courage and strength we need to fetter our own Fenris. Keep us mindful of our duties, and help us keep our fears bound as tightly as you bound old Slaver Mouth. Thus doing, may we share in your glory by imitating you.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!

Interpretation: Stress (Eihwaz) as the way of things (Not).

Outcome: Essie on tether first thing this morning. 

Mowed fore-half of yard.

I’ve never really had problems with Toby being left alone, until lately. 
Today, while mowing the yard, I found he had wandered off.  First, I called for
him around the yard.  Second, I got in the car heading West.  Third, I headed
East and found him strolling along the sidewalk on McCormick Street.  I almost
laughed so hard.  A guy on the other side of McCormick, familiar with Toby and
me on the walk rout, hollered at me, “I wondered where you were.”  I just
shrugged.  No sense getting angry at Toby.  I was the one who left the gate WIDE
open for mowing.

Mowed hind-half of yard.

Okay, I’m in trouble…sat down…zzzzzzzz……

To Wal-Mart for oil stuff and a couple of pet items.

To brothers for oil change.  Sometimes, even in his kindness, my brother can
be a bit trying (Eihwaz), and that’s putting it as kindly as I can.  It’s just
the way he is (Not).

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 HEIL, EGER UND RÂ HANA, as we honor the Eger

I can no longer be concerned about making time, and that I needed to take things

think he realized the necessity (Not) of it.  It turned out to be my best day yet.

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

AM Prayer: Donarstac/Thursday, we pray to Donar:
Donar, Son of Wodan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance.
When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!

Interpretation: Poverty (Fehu) but be calm (Not).

Outcome: I wonder if this is reflecting how I feel about Cox machine?

64F/18C?  I took advantage of this and took Toby on the full one mile.

Cox Machine hired me on the spot!  I start Monday.  $12 hr, not great, but it can only go up from there.
*Fehu and Not right here!

Called TAA rep to let her know of having to change class schedules.

Hung around WATC campus to get signatures.  As my instructor was suddenly unavailable (out to lunch or tending to NIMMS certification…whatever), the dean of the dept. signed my papers!

Came home to make an appointment with the Arnold group for paper work; today @ 3:30.

Called Cox Machine to make an early appointment to complete internship papers.

Paper work AND test at the Arnold group?  WTF?

While family is happy I got the job, they know I’m cautious about it.

WOW!  Serious clouds and weather moving into Wichita.  We've had some good storms, but nothing like what could be in THESE clouds.

JsMrFnChst!  That came on quickly; serious thunder, lightening and downpour!  Socks is safe in the Haruc, Essie is hiding deep and Toby is close by my side.

Early to bed to test the alarm clock.  Hey, I haven’t used it in YEARS!


Picture
PM Prayer: Wuldar, glory-god, hunting-god, ski-god, dueling-god; Son of Sibba, step-son of Donar, you glide through the snow-clad forests bringing death to game and life to your people. Remind us that life feeds on life, and
that the beauty of the prey is formed generation after generation by the culling ferocity of the predator. Let your Yew-bow be the great World-Yew under another guise.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, WULDAR, as we honor the Wuldar that resides in all of us!
