Plans: Final in Machining, end of semester
NOTE: I’m going to give Socks the benefit of the doubt and not go into detail what he did overnight. If it happens again he is so going to have an awfully cold winter.
Goddamn Weebly won't let pics load today! I don't have the patience to deal with it.
AM Prayer: Manostac/Monday, we pray to Mano, male aspect and god of the moon, lighting a white candle (symbolic 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 HAIL, MANO, as we honor the Mano that resides in us all!

Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way

Armanen Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Armanen Runes in your way

Havamal 147.
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: The social structure (Mannaz) is encouraged by a will to act (Thorn).
Outcome: Toby was a bit slow to react to voice commands but he did very well on his 1-mile walk.
Machining final went okay…I think. It took me all of class time to figure out the new way to indicate a hole on the mills. I got it done, 30 sec over the limit, but it was dead-center! Hopefully that accounts for something.
I’m not sure what to think about CATIA. My lab instructor assured me I would at least get a “C”, but looking at things thus far I’m not too sure. I mat eek by on the skin of my teeth.
Power napped…GODS I needed that!
Runic telephone counseling with Liut member…THAT is when I’m at my best.
WOO-HOO! I received an open Yule invitation from my OKC friends. The Yule season is quickly filling up, and this date in OKC is OPEN! Here is how my Yule season looks:

More conversation with my OKC friends to make sure all is in readiness.
WOW! Mannaz (social activity) and Thorn (a new emergence form what has been perceived as dried-up but evidently dried-up no longer)!
PM Prayer: Paltar:
Blameless Paltar, gloriously shining god, restoration god, beloved son of Wodan and Frija: Let your goodness and your reconciliation smooth our paths on Earth. When our days here are over, light up death’s darkness with the promise of rebirth. Help is to avoid evil, and seek the good. Inspired by you, we will keep our reputations spotless that our lives be proclaimed a victory of the Spirit, and our leaving this life a tragedy. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, PALTAR, as we honor the Paltar that resides in us all!
PM Clarification Rune: none
