10/2026 - Sunday the 18th - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Lukas 
I have known a Lukas or two.  From school or Sweden.

    Today was nice & quiet.  I slept good,  Weather was ok,  The low was 41.  The high today was 67.  A bit of wind today.  Pretty nice.
    Took a nap with the 3 cats.  Wherever I went Cinder & Daisy followed me.  Kisse rarely  follows me anywhere.  She never started,  She does come to me in bed to give me attention though.
    JR & I tried to decide where to eat supper.  China was too much food for me tonight.  Just cannot go to Pizza Hut after they hurt my friend who worked there.  I cannot abide by lies & hurting someone needlessly.  Ruled out the Sale Barn.  MM was not there.  JR noticed not many cars at the Stuga.  Soooo. The Stuga it was.  They have one sandwich I can easily take apart if I get too full.  And I treated me to cranberry juice & vodka.  It was delightful.  I heard my waitress mention someone's name so I asked their last name.  And it turned out to be my cousin I have not seen in ages.  He came over to our table & we had the best visit. And are having lunch on tuesday at Jalisco's.  He is not on  FB so it is no wonder I could not find him.  Now we have each other's phone numbers.  Great!!!!!  A good day.
    My remarkable 2 still does not work.  I ordered a cheap new one.  I am dying with out it.  My new stylus made no difference.  I tried everything google told me to try.  Dead.
    I need to let me nephew know when  I need a ride to take my car in to be fixed.  I called a couple of days ago & he never checked to see if I was ok.  I will try tomorrow.  They were gone today.  If worse comes to worse the one worker will drive me home.  Living alone is anything but fun.  No fun & lots of stress.
    Tomorrow I need to call to fix my windshield wipers.  Short errand,

10/2026 - Saturday the 17th - MY JOURNEY

 


Willie would have been 85 years old today.  Doesn't seem possible.  Miss him.





Today's Name Day:  Antonia , Toini
I knew one lady named Toni.  She was my neighbour & a friends mother.  And she worked in a store in LBK.  Nice lady.

    Today  was an ok day.  Quiet and restful  Only one email   Got texts about my grand nephew's birthday, CN.  He is now 13. A super nice kid!!  Wish I saw them more often.  Not possible.  I know why.  Nothing I can change.
   I stayed up to watch a football game before my nap..  Two state schools playing.  Happy to say my team won.  Great match.  Not a football fan just this one game.
    We got really cold last night.  I saw 32F here.  But today got up to around 60F.  House is still a bit chilly.  I will survive.  Much better than summer.  Hate heat.  Makes me feel sick. 
    Now a show by Josh Gates about Tesla.  We should have listened to him.  Interesting subject.  Love Josh Gates.  His shows are so fun.  I always learn something.
    My little family was odd this afternoon.  I slept in my bed.  Daisy was on top of some storage crates.  Kisse was in the chair by my bed,  And Cinder was curled up behind my knees.  That is odd but I loved it,  Now all of us are in the living room except for Daisy.  She came later.
    The vet called this morning to check on Daisy.  That was nice.  She is normal.  She was in her hiding place all night.  Worried me but out this morning.  Glad she is ok today.  I was just terrified for her & for me.
    Tomorrow will eat out.  If I have the energy to do so.
    Today is Willie's 85th heavenly birthday.  CN was born on his birthday.  Willie was so proud & thrilled.  You can see that in one photo I am sharing.
    Tonight is SNL.  Best night of the week.

Birthday boys.  Willie is beaming,  He was so thrilled.
