8/2026 - Thursday the 20th - MY JOURNEY

 


Today's Name Day:  Bernhard , Bernt
I remember a minister years ago named Bernt.  Don't know any Bernhards.



    Today could have been better.  Upset stomach so I had to cancel eating out. Plus I was upset by somethings that were being said about me.
    I did manage to pick up my groceries.  I scheduled them when I felt ok.  But I have food again.  Short trip out. 
    Warmer today.  Saw 92F.  Feels humid out also.  No rain forecast for me here.  Maybe next week??  Ha.  We are in the drought area now.  There are 3 areas shown.  We are in the middle one. We were on the edge.  Driving to town he dust on the country roads was scary.  I met a large truck & could not see anything for a mile or so.  I was terrified there was more traffic in that dust.
    Took a short nap.  Whether I needed it or not.  I am depresssed.
    Last night a friend I rarely visit with greeted me while I was awake late,  He joked with me about why was I still up!  Then he said he needed some sleep.  So did I.  He told me to sleep well.  I told him the same.  It was a nice moment to have a good night from someone.
    Tomorrow I work at the gallery.  Probably be quiet.
 
I bought an old post card from Amazon.  A house here in LBK.  Had the address & family name.  So I checked. House is still here looking much the same.  Very cool.

Oh, to be there again.

8/2026 - Wednesday the 19th - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Måns , Magnus
I have known a Magnus since he was a child.  His grandmother would bring him to my Swedish Friendship group.  Now he is an adult married man.  Super nice.


    Today was an ok day.  Good night of sleep.  Less pain.  Always nice.  I had a spell of low blood sugar at the end of work & nothing to eat in my purse.  I never let that happen , but it did today.  I survived.  LL helped.  At supper treated myself to Mexican soda.  Too good for words.
    Finished one set of photos,  And started a new one.  Even found some photos with names & writing on them.  Always fun to share & see if anyone knows anything.
    There was rain in town this morning.  Nary a drop in my yard,  As usual,  We are officially in the drought area of Kansas,  Sad.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  My usual friends were off today.  Glad MA was working today.  He always talks when he has time.
    I noticed our one business in town selling used stuff was packed with people.  And so was our swimming pool,  It closes this sunday.  No more fun!!
    Did not sit out with Daisy today.  Will have time tomorrow.
    Need groceries tomorrow.  My next job.






Too die for!!!!





Friends at Jalisco's always take liberty with my bill!!!
