07/2025 - Domingo the 13th- JOURNEY

 





Today's Name Day:  Joel, Judit
I am friends with a Joel now.  Have a Judy who is a cousin in KY.  Best friend in high school was Judy.

    Had a nice day.  My glucose sensor woke me twice during the night but then I slept good.
    MM called me this morning with an invite to lunch today.  Very nice lunch.  Good to see him feeling better.  Nice time.  Jalisco's was really busy. I miss eating there on sunday noons.  Miss some of the sunday regulars.
    Took a nap after lunch.  Nice.  And again my glucose sensor woke me again but it was near my alarm time.
    Got up & did my spanish lesson.  It was awful.  I really struggled today.  Miserable.
    Supper was ok.  So far no beeping sensor.  Good.  Nice for a change.
    The weather sucked today,  My house never got very cool.  In the 90s today.  No rain here.  We had one measely cooler day and the next few days are hot.  Typical Kansas July.  I hate it.  Every day is a day closer to autumn.
    No flowers to photograph.  Need to drive the back roads and see if I can find any.  But I have lots of old ones.
    I have a little less pain today.  Makes life better.
    Cinder has been extra snuggly today.  I like that.  Kisse is not quite as snuggly but she hangs close.  Both are sleeping now.  Again.
    Photos today are flowers & coffee times.





Burning wheat fields today.

Jalisco's

Today's Name Day:  Herman, Hermine
Knew a Herman.  Very nice guy.  Friends with his son most of my life.

    Another quiet day at home.  I planned to work at the Old Mill but had severe back pain & trouble walking.  Stupid weather.  Hate not to be there. A second home.  Like the SVAFC.
    I slept good until I had to get up.  I would have crawled if I could have.  I have one friend who checks on me daily.  And she did.  Then she offers support & nice graphics.  Very nice.  Makes my day!!!  MM & I texted a bit.  Remembered I forgot to tell him I checked graves at the cemetery a couple of days ago. Will tell him later tonight.
    I miss LL being out of town.  I won't bother her.  Her entire family is together this weekend.  Good for them all.  Wish I had family to be with.  I sent a birthday card to my grand daughter.  I doubt she will make a comment to me.  It is what it is.
    Better weather.  Much cooler.  Rain was in the area but nothing here that I know of.  Our high was in the 70-80s.  Heaven.  Won't last.  Warmer tomorrow.  😞
    I was a outside for a short time to get mail off my porch.  Felt ok but came right back in.  Always afraid of mosquitos.  Awful.  I am scared of getting whatever they are carryong this year.
    Got a notice from my one bank about a questionable transaction.  Could not find it in my bank app.  Turned it is as not mine.  Can get a new credit card on monday.  Small transaction.  Bank was on the ball.
    Lots of sleep today.  Needed it.
    Got a new iPhone watch band.  Trouble getting it to fit like I want.  Maybe today it is ok.  Don't want it too tight.  Really like it though.  Brand is Solace.
    Photos today are all Fika or Coffee ones.
My favorite













So ready!!!!

Today's Name Day:  Eleonora, Ellinor 
Known many Ellies or Ellinors.

    Had a pretty good day.  Slept ok last night.  Blood sugar has been almost ok most of the day.  Even after supper I expected it to be bad but it got ok quickly.
    Tired this afternoon.  Hard to keep my eyes open.  Short nap when I got home.
    Worked at the SVAFC.  Did not have many visitors.  Two ladies came in together.  The one lady was sooo elegant.  She had on a black long skirt that was many short layers of a thin soft fabric.  Her top was black & white.  She had beautiful white hair twisted up on top of her head.  Don't see people looking so good often.  JH was in for a short time to chat with me.  He is the best!!!
    Texted with MM often this afternoon.  I am hopeful for him.  Upset that on Father's Day he never got to see even one of his sons.  That was cruel.  Today or yesterday was one of his son's birthday.  Again he was ignored.  That is meaness on purpose.  Karma will take care of them.  Has already happened to one.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  Ordered something I had not had for a long time.  Very good.  They were busy but not overwhelmingly busy.
    My increasing pain is no fun.  I was a bit improved this morning but now worse.  Stomach is ok today.
    Tomorrow is my granddaughter's birthday.  Her brother is CF.  She quit talking to me years ago.  No idea why.  I remember she got engaged & not one family told me.  I had no idea.  Eventually I was invited but did not feel wanted.  CF says she is like that with most of her family.  I will send a card & let it go.  I remember how close CF, her, & I were when they were younger.  They lived near us.  Good times.  Sad they ended ---- all the way around.  I think she cares but is too focused on her own life.
    Awful weather again today.  Did not quite reach 100F.  Cooler this weekend.  Great!!
    Photos are flowers again.  I took many of the photos.
