Plans: clean house, to Ponderosa for New Year’s chop-suey (it’s a family thing)
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 HAIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!
Elder Rune Summons:
Born of fire, born of ice
Life is lived at such a price
Elder Runes in your way
Advise the physical man today
Ansuz (R): Outside the favor of Wodan vital/divine breath and
the ancestral/Wodanic wisdom, separation from one’s true Spirit, spiritual imbalance, neurotic compulsive liar, exercise caution with communication and dealings including intelligence; a lack of inspiration, the shadow side of Wodan.
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
Bar: Security, birth: birth of the future life that is preordained for us, becoming, being projected, help in birth, son, bread, song, fountain, mountains, meaning of life on this planet/in this world, the power of
becoming, reconstruction, Rune of continuous transformation, death and rebirth metamorphosis, return to the Mothers.
Havamal 157.
A thirteenth I know: if the new-born son
of a warrior I sprinkle with water,
that youth will not fail when he fares to war,
never slain shall he bow before sword.
Interpretation: Wodan may have turned his back (Ansuz) but therein lies a life-lesson (Bar).
Outcome: Gray, overcast, with light snow: perfekt!
Toby was very well behaved on his 1-mile walk.
OMGs! Early in the walk, my J’sW daughter was warming up her car; scraping of her car’s window. I have never in my life seen a more beautiful woman in woodland camo. It’s too bad she seems to think she’s too good for any man. Who knows, she may be.
New Year’s chop-suey on the Ponderosa with family; it doesn’t get any better than this!
Well, hel, I came early to help my brother, but now he doesn’t want to do it today; rather, tomorrow. Oh well, that’s how it goes.
FINALLY cleaned house and Haruc from Yuletide festivities.
WOW! Using the gift card I received from Liut members was a bit of a chore with Amazon.com. One agent tried to tell me I couldn’t do what I wanted to do so I asked to speak to his supervisor. She gets on the phone, realizing I’m a long-time Amazon customer and she bent over backwards to complete my order. My order exposed a flaw in the Amazon ordering process and I think there might be some changes because of it. Well, what the hel, here it is. My gift card was $25. My order came to $27.02. Amazon tried to tell me their system wasn’t set up to take two payment sources for one order. I told them, “If I walked into any retail store to purchase books on this gift card I would be able to swipe the card then finish the payment with my checking account. I should be able to do that same thing with Amazon, but they said they were not set up that way. The supervisor came on, put $4 in promotions to my account and I finished the order with my gift card. This supervisor KNOWS how to give good customer service. She also
made note of my payment dilemma. My hope is that something good comes out of this.
Ansuz and Bar…right here!
Done…

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!
