4/2026 - Fredag den 17:e - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Elis , Elias
I  only know people with the last name of Ellis.

    
    Today was a so so day.  Slept ok but my blood sugar was not good.  Did not dare to drive so did not go to work,  Plus I was in a lot of pain.  I keep reading that one must take care of oneself.  It is hard for me to do.  I have such guilt feelings.  But guilt or not I stayed home, feeling sick,  Feel like my life is collapsing around me.  And helpless.  But no one sees me.
    I got a nice nap.  And lunch did not bother me so supper was on.  I really needed real food not lunch meat.
    Tried 3-4 times to get a parking spot at Jalisco's & there was none.  Got one the the two last ones at the Crown.,  Supper was Swedish Meat Balls with mashsed potatoes.  Excellent!!  As good as in Sweden??  Not quite, but good. Nothing is ever as good as Sweden.
    Called KN before going to town.  Gave him some ideas about the trash bins.  And I told him that I am not home so no hurry.  But it was all finished when I got home.  I will start taking trash out tomorrow.  What a relief.
     After supper Cinder & I needed groceries.  We are good now for a while.  Still no cat family.
    Turned colder today.  About froze before I got home.  The house felt so nice & warm.  The AC was on but never came on.  Have the heat on now.  Good sleeping weather.  At last.  Wish it would last.  HA.  Not in Kansas.  It does not know how to be nice.
    It amazes me I have two friends that I dearly love who keep saying how important I am to them & how much they miss me.  And yet they never have time for me or try to make time to see me.  Hurts.  I keep hoping.  One is a waiter at a very high class place nearby.  I have not gone there alone & he keeps asking me to come. When my stomach is more stable I will tell him to find me a hidden table away from everyone & I will come & order me a steak.  I won't know anyone eating there.  I can ignore them.  That might work,
    Pictures are things I like.  Saw the llamas when I got home.  Took lots of photos.  They are cool.  Need to find what I can feed them.
    A cousin posted many old old town photos.  Will arrange them as I want & maybe share them.

04/2026 - Torsdagen den 16:e - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Amelie , Amalia
I don't know anyone with these names other than a movie called Amelie.  Love it.


    Just another day at home.  No emails or texts.  No cat family.  Anything from MM was not for me.  About his friends  And that Gracie had escaped already.  Hope she is ok.
    I cancelled eating out yesterday. & today.  I maybe could have but don't trust my body.  One of my friends also did not feel well so we all skipped lunch today.
    I have done ok,  Slept part of last night & had a nap today.  I do not feel wonderful.  I hurt all over & no one has a clue.  No one asks how I am so they think all is well.  Things are rarely well.  Life with chronic diseases.  Few realise how it is.  Or care.
    I accidently called KN at 2am last night.  What a idiot I am.  He called right away to check,  I did notice last night that all my boxes I had sorted were gone.  He picked them up a day or so ago.  And he was  the one who fixed my trash bins.  So thankful.  He is the best.  But we had 50+ mph winds a couple of nights ago & the bins are a mess again.
    Cinder slept near me all night & today.  No idea where Kisse was today.  Probably in the bedroom.  But she stayed close last night.
    Photos are from one artist & a variety of things I like.  Hard to please everyone but my blog so be it.  Still not in a flower mood.













Church in Abilene KS.


Cute.




Great idea!!!







Every year I hope another white one appears.  Not happened yet.
