4/2026 - Måndag den 6:e - MY JOURNEY

 


Much better time of the year.



Today'a Name Day:  Vilhelm, William
Mom had an Uncle Manny whose real name was Vilhelm. He changed it to William.  (William is my son's name.)  Willie was actually Earl William.

    Had a so-so day.  Throat only hurts really bad when I cough or swallow, not between coughs.
    Today is a sad anniversary.  Today my family ceased to be.  Not my choice.  But for my own physical safety I had no other choice.  We almost had to call the law but I chose not to.  Should have.  Miss my grandchildren.  I am sure they only know bad things about me.
    Weather was ok.  I was mostly inside.  Don't care about the weather anymore.  I hate Kansas weather.  It won't be better for months.  Had moderate winds.  Few clouds.
    I went out to feed Miss Kitty.  She was no where to be seen.  I but looked in an empty box on the porch.  All 6 kittens were snuggled in it!!  No way to get a photo but I wish I could have.  I wonder if she put them there & told them to STAY!!!  Good mom!
    After cutting out that one food I like that I decided it was making my stomach sick  I have had no problems.  Good to know.
    After lunch I fed Miss Kitty.  She was there then.  And the kittens had scattered.
    Took a very short nap.  Had a nice nap about me & a friend & an uncle & aunt.  Nothing special, just nice.  Only people I have "seen" in the last week.  Only "see" one friend on FB.  No one else keeps in touch.
    When I woke up I went outside for a while.  Miss Kitty came to eat & we bonded a bit.  She is sweet.
    I now know that no one has time for me.  I will expect nothing anymore.  Every one has more to do than anything to help me.  I will only see if KN can help me this week.  Won't ask anyone else.  Could ask MS but she works hard & I do not want her to see my house.  How awful it is.  No more whining on my part.  No one cares how I feel anyway.
    I wanted some more cattle photos but not a cow or llama insight.  Dang.  They were too far south.
    Rain is forecast for next week,  My one weather app has tons of rain forecast for over a week starting next weekend.  Even the weather men agree.  Scary.  The drought is creeping further & further to the north.  No quite here yet.  Yet.
    Kids did not nap with me.  Kind of stayed close though.  Now that I am busy Cinder is begging for food.  There is still dry food.  She will live.
    I down loaded some photos while outside but they have not synched yet.  Dang.
    I down loaded an upgraded operating systems on my laptop last night & on my iphone today.  
    I hope to work on wednesday but depends on my cough.  Had a bad coughing spell today.  Do not want to be at work & coughing the entire time.  Not working at  all on friday.  Taking a vacation day.  Like I have vacation days!!!
    Photos are a mix, like usual.  Some old some new.

Saw this in Ellis Kansas after we had stopped for coffee.  Had to have photos!  Years ago.

Coronado Heights.

Snowy Lindsborg

My favorite golfer

Oso & I.  Lord I miss him.  Where is he when I need him.. He is also too busy for me now.

4/2026 - Söndag den 6:e - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Irene,  Irja
Had a couple relatives named Irene.  Nice ladies.


    Not a good day.  Not as bad as it could have been.  Everyone & their dog had an idea what I should do to make me feel better.  But not one person offered to buy what I need & drive it out.  By their photos they were having too much fun.  No fun here.  Just me alone.  Even my cats are ignoring me.
    I brought food & water out for Miss Kitty but I never saw her.  Saw one kitten.  But later I saw Miss Kitty so I knew she  was ok,
    My cats ignored me.  Cinder is on my bed & Kisse in her bed.  Totally forgetting about me.  Like every one else.
    My throat is not as sore but  I cough often & my eyes water a lot.  I hurt all over.  Even my noon time pill did not help today.  It usually makes me feel better.  Not today.
    I had a nice nap.  With 2 blankets.  Cozy.  Maybe KN can help tomorrow or tuesday.  
    I should sit outside for a bit but just not in the mood.  Temp outside is 71 now.  And almost supper time.  Nothing sounds good.  Not sure I can drive.  A bit dizzy today.  Not safe.  So no getting me something good to eat.
    Photos are a mix.  Nothing special.








These are not my kittens.  They belong to a friend.









Cute!!
