3/2026 - Fredag den 27:e - MY JOURNEY

I am not in a spring mood but I am always in a poppy mood. Have to see in they are blooming yet.

Today's Name Day: Ralf, Rudolf

Known one local Rudolf.

Not a good day. Little sleep due to severe cramps in my feet. Right one is always worse. I have a pharmacy full of lotions, creams, liquids for helping to prevent them. They all failed last night. Had trouble walking. Cancelled the entire day. I just rested. Mid afternoon it was resolved. Finally.

Much cooler today. It is 59 now. Probably our high. I felt cold overnight. My feet are cold often when I go to bed. I put on sock & pulled my weighted blanket. Both helped.

Strong winds here again with a fire warning, Same for tomorrow.

Emailing JL today. I enjoying being connected to her. Had one comment from MM. About him, not me.

I got sort of upset last night. MM shared a photo of him & another friend. I miss them both but they do not have much time, if any, for me. Made me cry. Still feeling left out. Being alone is not easy or healthy.

Pictures are all from different artists. Names are posted. And photos from a trip to Yoder KS. It is an Amish town with the best restaurant. I am dying to go there again. LL is always busy & JR always tired. Oh well.

Yoder KS

Yoder KS. An Amish town. They do not drive cars, only horse & buggies. And they make buggies there in town. One shop in town has all the old old toys but they are newly produced. And more than toys.

Yoder KS. My meal there was a hot beef sandwich.

Yoder KS. My dessert was pie. Lemon cream pie. Willie's favorite. It was yummy.

Yoder KS. The restaurant.

Yoder KS.

My grandparents. Mimi & Boppa. That is what I called them. She died when I was 3 years old. Once she was gone the younger grandkids renamed them. Only Mimi & Boppa to me. 😞

Baby Nico & me

Today's Name Day: Emanuel

Know an Emanuel or two both in Sweden & Mexico.

Had a good day. Slept good. Kitty babysitters near.

Today would have been Nico's 10th birthday. Wish he was still here. After my nap I was laying in bed looking at photos for his birthday to post. I felt something touch my shoulder. Had to have been Nico. No one else nearby. A special moment.

Got up earuly to get ready for a lunch date with my thursday group. We met today at the Blacksmith Coffee Shop. I had quiche & part of a cinnamon roll with iced green tea. All 4 of us were there. Had a good visit.

When I got home I took a nap. Cinder stayed close. So did Kisse. Nice cozy nap.

When I went to town there were a lot of cattle near my yard but no llamas. After my nap I sat outside for a while. No llamas then either. But lots of mother cows & babies. Took a few photos. I can see the babies playing with each other from my sofa! So sweet!

Today was a high wind day. Both my trash bins were tossed about. Glad. I had not put any trash in them. I hope that saturday I can get some trash outside. Tuesday is trash day.

I spent some time cleaning out my photos. I got way behind. Think I am sort of caught up for now.

Supper was bbq beef & potato salad. Love bbq. Cinder was hoping get a taste. I gave her one with her treat. Have to check to see if she ate it.

Our cold front is here. Temp has dropped down to65. Be good sleeping!!

Photos are a bigger mix than usual. And people from Sweden have looked at my blog for the last 2 days. Also people from Poland.

Neighbours have a couple of old trucks. Fun if a really new truck parks next to them. The old & new.

Painting of the Old Mill.

Harvest crew.

I have no idea how this happened --- blending 2 photos on my iphone. I like it though. I could probably do it if I wanted to using an app or two. This one just happened.
