9/2026 - Monday the 14th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Ida , Ronja

I have known several Idas. Must have been a popular name at one time. Mom had a neighbour lady named Ida. One of our landlords we farmed for was an Ida. And others I have forgotten.

Today was just a normal day. Home alone with the cats. One short email. Texting with MM & AN. Sad day in some ways. Special day in other ways,

Kisse never came in the bedroom all night. Not normal. I was sooo worried. Almost scared to get up thinking there might be something wrong Kisse. I got up & there at their water dish was Kisse. Where was she all night or did I sleep so sound I missed her & she never ran over my bed. Normal today.

Daisy is ok, Out in heat. I saw a bit over 100F. Sick of heat. Cooler tomorrow I can sit out with her some.

I had plans to move some heavy boxes to the trash outside but changed my mind. Too hot. I am in too much pain. A quien le importa?

Got word today that KN's mother-in-law has died. Hard to lose a mom or anyone, She was a really nice lady. Always liked her. She was so good to her grandchildren, She will be missed.

It is MM's birthday tomorrow. Sent him an early card. We texted a lot then!!

Tired today. Tired of being tired. Took a nice cozy nap. Cinder curled up next to me for most of it. Much better than working out in the heat.

Blood sugar better today. I had a small can of soda for lunch. Nice for a change. BS was ok after eating.

Photos today are a mix. Not sorted. Too lazy.

Current photo of my two oldest great grandsons. Sweet.

Cinder I think..

Old old photo of Presser Hall on the college campus. Sadly all the trees are gone now. Concert hall, offices, practice offices for musicians,

My great grandmother's paper giving her permission to come to America from her pastor. She was young & traveled alone as far as I know.

A fave photo of Nico. Did this by himself. Miss him so much.

Love this one.

Cool.

Great painting.

Wish I was there.

Morocco I think. Have a friend there so I like pictures from there.

MM & friend CW. MM is very tall. No idea how he manages to hug me. Glad he can. Their shoes explain how they managed this.

HaHaHa

9/2026 -Sunday the 13th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Sture

I knew a man from Norway named Sture. Probably a couple in Sweden also.

Today was a good day. Could have slept better. Work was a bit slow & I had to work at not nodding off!!

Weather was good. Our low was 62F. Our high was 88F. Tomorrow is forecast to be 101F. Horrible. Glad I am staying home. Need to load some trash for trash day on tuesday. Some heavy boxes. No help. I will hurt bad after I do that. Fun day.

Had a friend who was supposed to spend the afternoon with me & some tea & muffins. But her sister had things for her today so she just came to say hello. Just not fair. But I woke up a bit after she left. Had a few visitors but not many. Yesterday the area the gallery is in was busy with lots of parked cars & lots of people walking around. Today it was dead. No cars. Some people walking around but not many. And few came in. Some days are like that. I have had worse.

Almost when time to go home. MH came with a friend from the gallery, MH (same initials). The second guy stayed. He is a fave of mine. We had a nice visit about art & politics. Wish he would come in more often. Nice ending to my day.

No supper out. Too tired. I hurried home for a cozy nap. Felt awesome!!

Supper was good but I have had trouble ever since I applied by guclose sensor. I seem to be running low blood sugar more than usual. Or more than I have realised. Not sure if I should lower my insulin or eat more. I will learn. I keep food nearby.

Not any communication for me today. As usual. Did get a new photos of 2 of my great grandsons. And last night I got several messages from a friend who lives out of the country. Good to hear from him.
