3/2026 - Måndag den 2:e - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Erna,  Ernst
Known at least one Ernest.  Maybe two.

    Had a better day.  Went to bed last night around 10pm.  And fell asleep right away.  Woke. up around 3am to check my iPhone.  Hate to ignore Lindsborg Now too long.  When I do something bad always happens.  Over 8000 people members on it & as a group they are not to be trusted.  But all was well on my. phone.  Not in the world though.  We have opened an awful can or worms.
    Today was ok.  I slept this morning.  Then a nap on my sofa this afternoon.
    There was ice early this morning.  No idea if we got any here but we were in the area.  Watch was over by 8am.
    I stepped out on my porch briefly & there were the llamas near my yard.  Dang.  No phone.  No photo.  Next time.  Old photo here.  Coco & Charlie.
    Less pain today but expect that to change with our messed up weather.  At least we are not having super warm weather.  Yet.
    The photos today are a mix.

Love pictures from Sweden.  Especially snowy ones.  Where my ancestors are from & some still live they have ski slopes there.  Near Järvsö.  Great photos.





Read texts on some of the photos.  Cute.









Love these tea pictures!!!

Read the book name.


AI me.  This is a fantasy!!!

3/2026 - Söndag den 1:e - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Albin,  Elvira
Lindsborg had a couple of men named Albin.  I remember a lady named Elvira from Assaria years ago.  And there is the famous actress who uses the name Elvira.  Born in Kansas.


    Not a good night or day.  I could not sleep to save my life.  Finally slept from 10am until 1pm.  Ready to nap again.  Cancelled the entire day.  We have had rain, hail, & thunder.  The temp is 31F now.  MM had a photo of hail on a table outside.
    Kisse has slept anywhere but her bed.  Weird.  No idea why.  Cinder stayed in the living room most of the time.
    I took a short nap then had supper.  The rain has left this area,  Just cold out.
    Photos are a mix.  Some I know I have shared before but I like them.

02/2026 - Lördagen den 28: e - MY JOURNEY






Today's Name Day:  Maria
Maria is a special name to me.  Had a good friend in junior high named Maria.  Sad she moved away.  And have a good friend now named Maria.  She is really special.  Love our friendship.

    Another sick day.  Sick & tired of being sick & tired.  But today it worked out for the best.
    I hurt so bad last night.  JR got me some Advil that helped a bit.  But today just hard to walk & be comfy.  Called in sick,  Walking those steps to the basement had me scared.  BUT.  After eating a normal lunch my stomach got so sick.  Seriously ill.  Better here at home rather than on the basement steps.  What a nightmare!!!  Thanking my angels for looking out for me.  Whew.
    The cats & I napped.  Cinder snuggled with me off & on.  Plus I remembered to feed the outside cat or cats.  It got all eaten.  Only put food out during the day.  Cannot afford to feed all the wild animals that come around at night.
    I had a great surprise around supper time.  CF called & we had a video chat.  So nice to see & hear him.  And I saw his dog Princess.  She is getting old.  When he got her we ate out in Marquette.  I have photos of me holding her!!  We sneaked her into a restaurant there.  She just slept.  Good girl.
    So many people are excited for February's end & are sure that it means that winter is now completely over.  HA.  We have icy roads forecast for tomorrow.  Stupid heat loving people.  They truly dislike winter loving people &  put us down.
    Just relaxing tonight.  Pain a bit less.  Maybe the weather is changing & has leveled out.  I hope.

    No special photo tonight.  Just a mix.
     




Cool.  Great to live there.




The school I went to grade school in.  A painting.  Long torn down.


The Kirby House in Abilene.  Fantastic food.  Burned down but never rebuilt & recipes never used again.  😔


Nico with his babies on the floor.  My heart hurts.


Aerial view of Lindsborg.









AI me.  Wish this was me tonight.  I rarely have a fun night out.
