Wandering Through Life

    Always be kind. Wear a mask if needed. Avoid toxic people and situations.

    I had an ok day. Too warm for me but had a nice breeze.

    While sitting outside I saw 2 red headed woodpeckers. They never come near my yard. Always in the pasture. We have 3 or 4 kinds of woodpeckers here.

    I got very melancholy last night. Not sure why. Partly a huge sense of loss. Had a nice text with a newer friend. Thinking of what could be but never will be. I am too old, too overweight, and certain to not pretty enough. If he truly knew me he would never look at me twice.

    So many people I know now are traveling - out of state, out of town, to a second home, seeing family, gambling with a friend. I do not wish anyone less but it is never my turn. If there is family to visit, they are too busy. I could travel but alone is not fun or it is too expensive. Plus 2 pets to board. But all this is because of

decisions I have made. I seem to always help others, not thinking of me. Just a sad day.

    JR and I ate lunch at Jalisco's. Quiet to start with then they got busy. I wore my mask out. Not safe in Kansas. Too many people refuse to get vaccinated.

    And then today I had to say goodbye to my friend CA. She returns to Mexico tomorrow. We shared a hug and I wrote her a message in Spanish. Oh, I will miss her! Hope her travels are safe. She begged me to go with her! Sweet! No wonder I am sad.

    My Dish TV barely works. Started during our heavy rain time. But now it clear, but noticed a long leafy branch hanging over it. My nephew is on the way to cut it off. Hope that is all it is. Hope.

    Last night a delightful lady jumped on me about a comment she made that had disappeared on my group. I am the admin. of over sooo people! I explained it went against our rules and was causing problems. I tried to be very understanding, to give her advice about what happened to her. As a result she called a racist and my group trash. And she screen shot our entire private message for all the world to see that I am a racist. I am not. I wrote her that I never said that. One cannot talk sense to a closed and uneducated mind. No fun sometimes being an admin. I and my assistant work so hard to keep the peace and not offend anyone. Kind of like nailing jello to a tree.

    Today is Sweden's Flag Day, their National Holiday. Proud of my Swedish genes.
