 Today's Name Day: Bodil, Boel

    Oh, lordy what an evening!!!  Sat down to write my blog.  My mouse would not work..  My PC would not come on.  Died.  Took forever to get enough juice for it to come on.  I did not want to try to blog on my iPhone or iPad.  Been there done that.  It is awful!  And Cinder decided she just  had to sit on my lap.  Finally she settled to sit next to me so I could do my Spanish lesson!  At least that went fast!!  Only made one error!  But here I am.  Finally.

    No National Day.  One is about your spouse.  Too sad to think about.

    Last night was not good either.  Both cats ran over me in bed all night until almost 5am.  At one time both were laying in bed with me.  I was worried since they don't always get along but all was ok.  I was awake until 5am.  I tried to nap after lunch but it was not the best nap.

    Picked up JR for supper.  We ate at Jalisco's.  Good food & even time to chat with MA.  He just got back from Mexico & gave me some candy from there.  Report on it later.

    We made a short stop for groceries.  I am not going to make it there until monday at the earliest.  I did not need much.  And they have some new food options.  JR found photos of the new areas.  Will go in to see what all they have.  One area of prepared food to cook.  Another are of prepared food to buy that is hot.  Cool!

    It is soooo muddy outside.  My car is a mess.  Got home & I have a circle drive.  It is mud.  It was soft but ok.  Got almost to my carport & I sunk.  And then I sat there.  I could not move.  But I sure tried.  FINALLY I got on the cement.  Will park elsewhere tomorrow.  What a mess.  Almost had to call my nephew!!!  I might go through the car wash if the car looks too awful.  Will go to work early.

    Heard from both grandsons & their loved ones.  MM could not work today.  Too rainy.  Wish he could find somewhere here.  I miss him so much.  CF is always far away.  Has never been close.  His sister just got another job & is getting ready for some training.  I need to see her more often.

    Cinder is acting odd.  Not been outside for 2 entire days.  Wonder why??  I offered her to go yesterday twice & she just looked at me.  I wonder if something scared her outside.  Or has she been looking for Nico & has now given up.  Glad she stays in.  It would kill me if I lost her.  Or Kisse.

    LL wrote & we are making plans for a day of going somewhere.  Fun!!!

    All photos today are from Sweden.  None taken by me.

                                

This is the domkyrka in Kalmar.  I lived in that town for a week or longer.  Went to church there on two separate days.  It is awesome.

    

Karlstad Sweden.  Stayed there for a week.  My hotel had once been a jail.  In the basement were a couple of cells, etc.  A friend walked by the jail when going to school.  The prisoners would wave at the kids.

Ice hotel in far north Sweden.  Wish I had been there.
