Today's Name Day:  Klemens

When I was very young there was a local man. He weighted many hundreds of pounds.  He wou.ld have coffee with them men first in the local bakery then join us kids in the drug store next,  Local rumor had it when he died they buried him in a piano box. He is buried near my parents.

    No blog.  I am in too much pain --- both physical & emotional.  No biggie.  Hard time of year.  Just photos.

Today's Name Day:  Cecilia, Sissela

Friends now with a Cecilia but she uses another name.

    Another quiet day, had little sleep overnight.  My sugar kept dropping to the 60s.  Around eveery 2 hours.  I got so tired of eating.  Today was much better.

    Very little communication today.  Only emails from JL in California.  Too warm to day.  But Cinder liked the sun shining in the bedroom window so she snuggled all afternoon.  Very nice.

    Had one guilty photo from CF.  No talking.  Photo meant nothing to anyone.  He sends his one photo everyday but no info on how he is or anything about his life.  I try to add things about me but he is not interested.  He said we would be live chatting with his other grandmother but has not happened yet.  Know nothing about her now.  Never see her.

    Nothing today fron LL or MM.  Probably won't hear from her all week.  With family.  MM working.

    Too warm.  Bedroom full of flies again.  Will try to tape the bottom of it & one hole in it.  See if that helps.  Not begging for help.  Been there done that.  Won't do it again.

    Cooler tomorrow with rain starting.  Heavy on monday.  Gotta get to the pharmacy on monday.  Meds to pick up.  Just to drive through.

    Photos are B&W ones, winter ones, some Swedish ones.

    B&W ones in Lindsborg.  Older ones.  Not from this year yet.  On Main Street.

Kalmar cast;le (slott) in the city of Kalmar.  I have been in it.  Very cool.

Crossed over & under the water to Danmark.  Super cool!!!

This one & the next are Swedish art.  I think Carl Larsson.

Hudson's Bay founded National Red Mitten Day to encourage Canadians to show their support for Canadian athletes and share their national pride through the tradition of wearing the company’s Red Mittens. Their goal on November 21st is to sell 25,000 Red Mittens to support Canadian Athletes in pursuing their dreams.

Since its launch ahead of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, Hudson’s Bay’s Red Mittens have become the nation’s most iconic symbol of Canadian Olympic pride. From every sale of a pair of Red Mittens, $3.90 goes to support Canadian athletes. To date, the Red Mittens alone have raised more than $30 million for the Canadian Olympic Foundation.

Today's Name Day:  Helga, Olga

Went to nursing school with a Helga.  We were good friends but she died really young.  Miss her

    Today was a very quiet day.  Had water over my drive.  Not a lot but forecast was rain all day today.  They lied.  Plus I had an upset stomach.  Just did not feel good.  Stayed home today.  No one was there to miss me.  LL would have moved all her stuff to the upstairs office.  I would not have seen much of her.

    Rested all day.  Cats followed me to nap in bed.  I was cold today.  Dressed extra warm.  Felt good.

    No texts to speak of from anyone.  Only one email & one photo.

    The next week is nothing for me but "on the outside looking in".  Hate holidays.  Always feel left out as I always am left out.

    Sat outside for a short time.  Nothing special was seen. Got one small package.  It looked like it was used.  All scratched.  Ugly.  Nothing special or expensive.  Just a waste.

    TV sucks tonight.  As usual.  Fridays are never good.  All old shows.  Especially late night shows.

    Photos are seasonal.

Mine sure do!!!

My family plus cardinals.
