07/2024 Onsdag the 24nd - Wandering & Capturing Moments


 

National Cousins Day

I was the oldest cousin & never had anyone to play with or be friends with.  At family gatherings I sat with the women.  Far too young to join their conversation.  Lots of cousins in this area where I live, but never hear from any of them.  Not even when Willie died.  Denver cousins are the best.  Close to several of them.  And their parents.  If we had only lived closer.


Today's Name Day:  Kerstin, Kristina


    Had a quiet day.  Got no sleep last night..  Sunday night through tuesday I had lots of sneezing, coughing, scratchy voice, burning eyes.  Sure it is the smoke we are getting from the west in the US & Alberta Canada.  I don't smell it but it does show up in photos,  The last time we had smoke here I could smell it.  But never got sick.  Why is this time different?

    I took a long nap today.  Called in sick to work.  I hate to do that as I love being there.  But I was exhausted

    Last night my eyes so sore & felt swollen I could barely see my laptop or phone to read or write.  Tonight all is sort of ok.  For now.  It better be ok on friday so I can work.

    I was so exhausted I forgot to tell JR I was not eating out tonight,  So on top of feeling bad I now feel guilty. )-;

    Cinder was a mess last night.  I went to get her in for the night.  And she just could not make up her mind --  while bugs were surrounding the door.  I must have sounded angry as I loudly encouraged her to come in & she left,  I tried 5 or so more times calling her & no Cinder.  Finally around 1am she came in.  She has been out most of today. Temp was 98F.

    A friend who used to work at Jalisco's wrote me today telling me it ws 110F in Rapid City, South Dakota where he lives.  Yikes!!  He said he was missing winter & snow.  Me too.  He said I should move up there.  I would love to do that.  Where he lives looks a lot like Colorado.  Mountains not as tall..  It is gorgeous.  Be great to be there to see him & his family.

    Got home yesterday morining & saw my driveway had been mowed.  KN is the best!!!  I am lucky to have him & his family.

    Photos today are ones I like & I took none of them but the one of me.  And I edited it also.
