10/2026 - Wednesday the 7th - MY JOURNEY

 


Cute





Today's Name Day:  Britta , Birgitta
I have known people these names.  Mostly friends  or family in Sweden.  Have one friend whose name has Brit is part of it.  Wish I had a cool name.


    Last night right after supper my right wrist, thumbs, & fingers started hurting with a severe episode of pain.  I put on a pain patch that did nothing.  Hurt all night.  Woke up to the same pain.  Hard to get out of bed or do anything.  I stayed home.
    Pain continues tonight & is spreading to my left wrist.  RA has won as usual.  Nothing has been good since my furnace died & the mouse died.  I got a package in the mail.  I managed one handed.  No wonder the pain is spreading.  I might be having a flare.  Too much stress from the situation & being insulted that still hurts.
    JL sent me a text.  LL & I chatted when I called in.  Everyone else ignored me.  Normal day.
    Weather was pretty good,  Low was in the 60 - 70.  Today was in the 80s.  House felt great.  In this nice weather I miss Daisy being outside.  But she has finally quit following me to the front door.  Don't want to undo that.  All 4 of us napped together.  Daisy curled up by my shoulders for a long time.  And cuddled. Made my day.
    Blood sugar a bit better.  I did not eat last night. A blessing.



Last photo of 3 of my uncles.  From the left are Harlan, Orin, & Merle who was dying from cancer & in Bethany Home,  Think my 4th uncle ws already gone.  Went to his funeral with Merle.  One did not like me at all.  One was ok with me.  I adored Merle but love another niece 10x more than me.  One & I had the same birthday.  He was 20 years older.

Our sunday friends we eat out with. So much fun!!!

Old old Bethany College photo from a parade.  In front of our movie theater, The Plaza.

My new lamp.  Might get one for the living room.  No cords.

Willie & Jo.  Want them back.  Miss them.  Alone is not good.

Willie & Jo.  Willie before dementia & alcoholism

Sweet.

10/2026 - Tuesday the 6th - MY JOURNEY

 



Spooks from Jalisco's.  Hand made.


Today's Name Day:  Jenny , Jennifer
I have known several Jennys.  A friend had a daughter with that name.  Friends in school.  Cool name.  jennifer is my third temporary daughter-in-law.  One who played a hand in trying to steal my farm land & then part of the group who have threatened with me with physical harm.  Hope I never see them again.  But I sure miss my grandkids they have forbidden us to have any friendship.  Mean mean people.  And scary.


    Today I was really nervous.  I knew a repair guy was coming but he never knocked or anything.  No problem.  He was scared to park anywhere since I am way past needing my yard mowed.  May have to hire someone in LBK.  He was here before 2pm.  So we had a nice chat.  Cinder had been close but she disappeared to the east end of my house.  Daisy stayed where ever I was,  On me or near me.  No clue where Kisse was.  Saw her no where.
    The repair guy worked for a long time.  Cleaning things in my furnace unit.  I could hear when he turned it on with the horrible banging & grinding.    When he was done he told me what it was.  It was a MOUSE.  That had been my first thought.  He removed it & through it outside.  I told him I had been told years ago I needed a new furnace.  He assured me I do not.  It looks great & just needed some cleaning.  Good to know!!  No new unit!!!
    I am excited.  I have not seen Dancing With The Stars in weeks.  Every week some stupid sports event.  Hope it is over for good.  Live tonight,  The music is Mariah Carey all night.  I do  not like her but I will survive.
    My stress is much lower.  Back to work tomorrow.  I am anxious to see LL.  Lots to discuss.
    My lamp by my bedside quit working a day ago,  Suddenly.  I ordered one that is battery operated.  Charge it plugged in & has 3 light levels.  Supposed to be here tonight
    I was insulted the other day.  Some one  who thinks they are better than me.  She bragged that sleeping during the cold nights was no problem. And I should not have hard any problem.  Then it dawned on her she lives in a large home that is much better than my modest mobile home.  Well duh.  And we were with others when she insulted me.  Quit looking at me from the tip of your nose.  I know I am no match for those who live in real houses.  I am aware.  P*ta. I won't talk to her again unless forced to.  Really hurt.  And no one stood up for me.  A quien le importa.
    Focusing autumn & scary photos.  Will save Christmas for later.
    With the doors being open so much there are little bugs flying around.  Driving me crazy.  My electric bug killers are failing!!!  😱
    Need to check my mail.  I did spanish this afternoon sitting on my bed.

That is a good sunset.  Not current.




My buddy today.  Her eye looks better
