6/2026 - Thursday the 18th - MY JOURNEY

How I wish I could travel. Even Great Bend is too far. So here I sadly sit. No friends. No family. No choice.

Today's Name Day: Björn , Bjarne

I am familiar with the name Björn. Known several in Sweden & in my family/ancestors. And an actor or two.

Today was a tough day. No sleep last night. And woke with a bad headache. Just rested with my catbabysitters!

Cooler today. Less humidity. Nice. Great weather here but storms in the southern part of the state. And heavy rain.

Hope the rest of my weekend goes better. Have plans.

Big Midsommars celebration in Lindsborg this weekend. I used to have to work at it but never attend anymore. Too hard to walk. And no one to go with. No fun to sit alone.

Not many photos today. Too tired to care. And I am a bit shaky. Think my blood sugar is low. I ate some crackers & cheese. Feeling better.

Cinder as an outside cat. She almost got out the other day. Yikes!

A large tomte I bought for myself & a gift from a special friend.

Wish there was some cake here!!!

It is certainly me.

6/2026 - Wednesday the 17th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Torborg , Torvald

I knew of a Torborg. Think Mom knew her.

Today could have been better. Called in sick. Diabetes not good. Too tired to move. I overcame guilt to call in. Rested a lot.

Had text & photos from MM. Love his boys.

Harvest has officially ended. KN is now here mowing my yard. And now CN is here on a small mower. Even my back yard!! Whoo hoo!!! I can now get to my tornado shelter. Maybe the little tree in my drive got moved. Big one will take help.

I woke up this morning with Kisse curled by my legs. Then Cinder jumped in & curled up by my chest. Maybe they knew I was feeling bad. They both stayed until my alarm went off. A couple of hours.

JS video chatted with me when he got off work. Nice to see & hear him. Nice to have someone check on me.

Had low bs before supper. Sure hit me fast. Still a bit shaky. I hate diabetes. No bueno.

Got very hot today & humid. Fed Daisy & about passed out!!

FIFA now is Panama. Have a friend from there. Hope they win. Match over soon. Tied so far. Tense!

Hope I feel better tomorrow, Hope.

Old memories.

Family. My grandma's maiden last name.

Great eating place in Ellsworth. No idea if it is still open.

Love this one.

6/2026 - Tuesday the 16th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Axel , Axelina

I have known several Axels. Old Swedish name.

Today turned out better than I thought. I got up early to move a couple of boxes so I could get to my electrical box in my house. Home Telephone said I had no electricity going to it. And the plug in was loose. I suspect there was a cat involved in this finding. I plugged it in & VIOLA!!! I had internet again. All lights on it green. Cool. I went back to bed to finish my night's sleep after letting the phone company know no workmen needed..

Very tired today. Rested a lot. Love RA........not. I started with no spoons today. Sad.

It was warm today. House felt ok. No rain forecast for here. No wind today. Rain in southern Kansas. Maybe rain tomorrow.

Doing my blog is awesome with internet again. Life is good but tiring. I can now add a group of photos at one time instead one or two only. Time saving.

Not seen any FIFA today. Maybe tonight. Nothing good on the tv now. Watching the national news, Nothing good to report. Sigh..........

Supper time but not really wanting to eat.

Our wheat harvest ended last night. Barely lasted a week. Gives you a clue how bad the wheat was. They are helping KN's father-in-law cut his now. Won't take long, The fall crops should be better with the rain we have had.
