7/2026 - Sunday the 5th- MY JOURNEY

 

Wish I was there.  I loved Hawaii.  Beautiful & nice people.

Today's  Name. Day:  Ritva , Laila

    Today was a good day.  I slept good & am walking pretty good.  Nice.  Cats ate fair overnight.  Normal.  Daisy always eats whatever I give her.

    I keep hoping for changes outside but nothing ever changes.  I will keep hoping.  And talk to my guardian angels.  Maybe they can help.  I refuse to beg.

    I was supposed to see someone at work today but I was sure it would not happen.  And I was right.  No surprise.

    Had two visitors at work.  One is working on the upcoming show in October at the gallery y Bethany College.  Sounds really great!!  The other is my family.  I have always known we are related but he was clueless.  We had a great visit.  Art, politics, family, his parents.  I really like him!!

    Got a text from someone wanting me to work in August for her.  Great!!  I warned MH I would need him.

    I planned to watch Norway & Brazil live at work.  What a joke.  Nothing worked.  JR looked up the score at supper.  I was quite excited!!! Norway won!!!  Very cool.  Even a friend in Sweden was rooting for them!!!  Now at home is England & Mexico.  Hoping for a Mexico win.

    Supper was at Pizza Hut.  I got a very nice hug & he made sure I was ok.  Nice to be cared for. He is the best. I ordered something I thought I liked.  Not hungry.  Came home & had a cookies.

    Did my Spanish lesson & it was actually easy.  How did that happen!!  I have quit pushing my self.

Where I work at the Old Mill.  I work in the basement of this building with my scanner & photos.

Turkeys in my yard.  When Willie was alive he would clean out the combines here & the turkeys liked it.

Rain storm.

Seven years ago we cut Willie's last wheat he sowed.  Seems like yesterday.  A day full of tears & laughter.  I fed them pizza.  Never spent that much in Pizza Hut!!!

                                                                     

           

7/2026 - Saturday the 4th- MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Ulrika , Ulla

    Today was ok.  My walking is much better.  No one made fun of me & my walking.  My feelings are still pretty raw & hurt.  Takes a lot to surprise me today but those nasty comments did surprise me.  Thought I was liked.  HA!!!

    I slept good.  So I felt good today.

    I moved where the cats eat in the house.  And cats do not like things changed.  I was worried but when I got up in the middle of the night they had eaten.  Good.  I fed Daisy.  Nothing dead on the porch by her today.  Fed her before I left for the day.

    Today was a work day.  I found I can watch FIFA live on YouTube.  Very cool!!!  Kept me busy.  NO people came in until late..  Lots of people out walking but no interest in the gallery.  Eventually had 3 people come in.  Two local ladies & one guy who works in the gallery,  Really like him.  We had a nice visit.  New art show,  I like it a lot.  Two men & their art.  I shared a photo of each of their work.  Love it all!!!

    Got home after work & took a nice nap.  Too many memories.  Makes me really sad to remember.  Willie & I were always invited to a family get together.  Great BBQ food & desserts.  Family & friends & even a few who actually talked to me!  The. loudest fireworks ever!  But then Willie died.  And I never got invited again.  I know why but it still hurts.  I cried today.

    I bought some new crackers.  Not sure I can eat them.  Cheddar & jalapeno flavored.  Way too hot for me!!!!  I gave up.  Back in the box they went.  Sounded good!!!

    Fed Daisy & got a load of litter to bring in the house,  Will most likely feed her again.  My baby.  She wants to come in so bad.  How nice that would be.  Maybe when she is older.

    No storms forecast.  Lindsborg got some showers early today.  I got nothing as usual.  Now nothing for a few days..

Love this one!

I looked at this photo today.  And I saw an extra hand!!!!  Awful!!  I got rid of it.  How did that happen???

                                                              

                                                                                                                                                                                          

7/2026 - Friday the 3rd- MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Aurora

I remember hearing about a relative name Aurora.  Sort of before my time.  She was not well & was in a mental hospital.  She got out & drowned in a pond.  No idea if it was an accident or not.  Sad life.

    Today was a good day except for my knee.  I am moving really slow.  So embarrassing.  I hope it gets better.

    I never upset anyone today.  A miracle.  Nice to be back at work.  But my laptop did not work like I wanted.  Someone had added photos that someone brought it.  And everytime I scanned a photo it went to that group of photos.  I finally figured out how to get the photo to my stuff.  And extra step or two but I survived.  It should not have worked like that but it did.  And whoever did it was clueless.  That group was full of blank scans.  I cleaned it all up.  I deleted all my errors.  So it looks good now.  Working on quite small photos now.  Keeping them separate so they don't spill.

    My feelings are still hurt from yesterday.  I almost cried this afternoon.  Maybe it took the insult wrong.  I got that they thought it stunk that I skipped out of eating with them.  I am still hurt.

    Hot & humid today.  Even MM said he is sick of it.  Where is autumn when I need it.  I belong to a private group  that hates summer.  My kind of people.  There is nothing good in Kansas in summer.

    I saw 95F with humidity & a good breeze.  Yuck.  Same tomorrow but with a chance of rain storms.  That is Lindsborg's big day to celebrate.  We don't have  fire works any more.  Just stuff in the park with bugs & heat.  I don't go.

    Supper was at Jalisco's.  Last new guy has left.  Now another new guy for 2 months.  Then he leaves.  Just got the last  one to smile & say hi to me.  Now I have to start all over again!!!  But MS who works there was glad to see me.  Nice to hear.  I missed her also.  And her boyfriend.  I sat towards the front tonight.  Could not walk any farther.

    Tried to take a nap.  But could not relax.  Oh well.  Things to do.  Blog &. spanish.

    Cinder is weird.  She is overly cuddly.  I think her food is gone & wants more.  When I get up I will feed them.

My 3 great grandsons.  From a couple of years ago.

My grand puppy, Gracie.

Our dog Otto
