7/2026 - Friday the 3rd- MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Aurora

I remember hearing about a relative name Aurora.  Sort of before my time.  She was not well & was in a mental hospital.  She got out & drowned in a pond.  No idea if it was an accident or not.  Sad life.

    Today was a good day except for my knee.  I am moving really slow.  So embarrassing.  I hope it gets better.

    I never upset anyone today.  A miracle.  Nice to be back at work.  But my laptop did not work like I wanted.  Someone had added photos that someone brought it.  And everytime I scanned a photo it went to that group of photos.  I finally figured out how to get the photo to my stuff.  And extra step or two but I survived.  It should not have worked like that but it did.  And whoever did it was clueless.  That group was full of blank scans.  I cleaned it all up.  I deleted all my errors.  So it looks good now.  Working on quite small photos now.  Keeping them separate so they don't spill.

    My feelings are still hurt from yesterday.  I almost cried this afternoon.  Maybe it took the insult wrong.  I got that they thought it stunk that I skipped out of eating with them.  I am still hurt.

    Hot & humid today.  Even MM said he is sick of it.  Where is autumn when I need it.  I belong to a private group  that hates summer.  My kind of people.  There is nothing good in Kansas in summer.

    I saw 95F with humidity & a good breeze.  Yuck.  Same tomorrow but with a chance of rain storms.  That is Lindsborg's big day to celebrate.  We don't have  fire works any more.  Just stuff in the park with bugs & heat.  I don't go.

    Supper was at Jalisco's.  Last new guy has left.  Now another new guy for 2 months.  Then he leaves.  Just got the last  one to smile & say hi to me.  Now I have to start all over again!!!  But MS who works there was glad to see me.  Nice to hear.  I missed her also.  And her boyfriend.  I sat towards the front tonight.  Could not walk any farther.

    Tried to take a nap.  But could not relax.  Oh well.  Things to do.  Blog &. spanish.

    Cinder is weird.  She is overly cuddly.  I think her food is gone & wants more.  When I get up I will feed them.

7/2026 - Thursday the 2nd- MY JOURNEY

 

 

   

Today's Name Day:  Rosita , Rosa

I have known several Rosas.  Willie had an aunt Rosa Lee.  Mom had two friends that had Rosa as part of their names.  

    Today was ok while sleeping.  But when I woke up early that was over.  I woke up with severe knee pain.  I could barely walk to the bathroom.  And just laying in bed & not moving was painful.  Why could it not wait until afternoon???  If I could barely walk to the bathroom there was no way I could walk to the restaurant for lunch..  I wrote to my eating group & explained why I could not be there.  And to my surprise they made a nasty comment about me.  I was going to make a comment back but decided to ignore.  I might just drop out of the group.  They can find someone healthy to take my place.  Makes me wonder if the people I work with think & say the same things about me.  I am not feeling good.  Not about my pain.  Not about me.  Not about lunch I ruined.  Very difficult to feel truly alone & then have insults thrown at me.

    I had groceries to pick up & that went good.  I park right by the porch so I don't have to carry anything very far.  Just set all on the porch.  I was worried with a holiday that maybe I would have trouble getting food for Cinder & I.  I have money I am taking out of savings but won't have it until next wednesday.

    Sort of too warm today.  In the 80s with a breeze.  Nothing major.  Hotter coming.  I hate hot weather.  Rain in western Kansas now.  Doubt we get any here.

    Work tomorrow.  I have made up my mind I will work if it about kills me.  No more nasty thoughts or texts about me where I can read them.  I did kick one of the eating group off my blog.

    I had no photos saved for today.  I grabbed some really old ones.  Very frustrating day.

    Sorry I whined about my hurt feelings.  I feel guilty about whinging & ruining their lunch.  How selfish of me.

Nico was a secret smoker!!!!

Photos of a very old old parade in Lindsborg.  Cannot remember where I saw them.

Love this one.
