3/2026 - Måndag den 23:e - MY JOURNEY

 



Me and a young Nico.  My heart hurts seeing him.



Today's Name Day:  Gerd, Gerda
Know a Gerd in Sweden.

    Today was an ok day.  Just super tired from my RA no doubt.  Stomach is ok so far.  Nice for a change.
    I had goals of things to do but too tired.  Hope I perk up sometime.  Might never happen.
    We got really cold last night.  It was 29F here. Highs in the 50s.  Winds around 22mph.  Hot again on thursday.  Then colder on friday.  No climate change or problems here.  😨
    Had an email from JL.  And my usual good mornig from N&C.  Everyone else quiet.
    I saw the llamas laying out in the pasture with cattle all around.  Grabbed my iphone & got some nice photos.  They were clueless.  I never called out to them.
    Had a short nap after lunch.  No cats near.  Kisse has a container of cat food she eats out of.  Then she disappeared. No cats seen all afternoon.  Both hiding out somewhere.  When I just turned the tv on here came Cinder.  She is laying on me now.
    MM has texted.  We need to meet tomorrow but heris moving this week.  We will do a work around to solve what we need to do.
    STILL no CBS here..  CH12 shows nothing.  I wonder if our "president" part of this.  It is common knowledge he dislikes CBS.  I am sick of it.
    Glad I am not flying anywhere now.  What a mess.  Sick of politics messing up our airports.  Poor workers.  Sick of politics period.
    Had a long video chat with JS.  Nice to see him.
    Photos today are ones I have taken of Lindsborg & maybe one from Salina.

Miss having fun times like we did. We played games, ate out, went dancing, had cocktails.  Nothing like that now.

3/2026 - Söndag den 22:e - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Kennet,  Kent
Known both Kenneths & Kents.  Willie & I both had relatives named Kenneth

    Had an ok day.  Just tired.  I have started taking a med I order online.  I think it is working.  Usually pain free for most of day after I take it.  Yesterday I had no pain & my feet feel better.  I am hopeful.
    I was cold last night so I had the heat on a little.  The AC made me too cold.  This afternoon I was freezing in the living room. It was 65 outside but I was freezing inside.  Turned the heat on a little.  Felt better.  We had 40mph winds hitting the south side of my house.  Felt like the windows were open!  None of my windows will actually open.  Too old.
    I had a nice, cozy nap after lunch.  Then to get ready to eat out.  I only put on clothes.  No make up.  Did not care today.  We ate in the car.
    JR & I went to the Barnyard Creamery.  They now have french fries with their burgers.  That is what we each had to eat.  I had soft serve ice cream for dessert.  I really missed it.  Perfect.
    Then we bought some groceries.  I was out of stuff.  I will be ok now.
    While sitting in my car at the grocery store a man walked up to my car door.  He asked if I was Julie.  I said I was.  He introduced himself.  He is on Lindsborg Now.  He & I talk every day.  And have for a long time but we have never met.  I had no idea what he looked like. But he knew me.  I was thrilled to meet him!!!  I had planned to tell him if he is ever near the Old Mill to stop in.  He plays in a musical group at the Mill at various times.  I would love to be able to be there to listen to them.  What an honor to meet him!!!  Made my day!!!
    Then it was home.  And waiting for me at my mail box was Coco & Larry.  I got some nice photos.  Fun to be close to them.  Cows were no where near me.  They had been earlier.
Larry & Coco.  Love the white face.
    KN fixed my trash bins.  Carry some trash out tomorrow.  Less wind.  I am drowning in trash!!
    I emailed with JL.  MM sent lots of photos.  CF sent some photos.  One was pretty good.
Chris & Princess
    Photos are a mix.
