10/2025 - Viernes the 31st - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Edgar, Edit
I had a great uncle named Edgar.  Great guy.  Wish I could have bought their farm house.  Loved it.  Know several Ediths also.

    Had a great day mostly.  Slept good with good blood sugars.  About time!!!
    Work started ok,  Then suddenly how I work the photos totally changed.  Why???  It appears that there was a program upgrade without warning.  I remember that the files I worked with were .tiff files.  Now all there was were .tif files.  AP tried to fix it but nothing worked.  At supper JR told me that .tiff is an old fashioned term.  Now the .tif files are all interchangable.  IF we had known what a difference it would have made.  Ended my work day on a good note.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  I love the the girls who work there ---- MS & LS.  I got big smiles from them.  And great to see Miguel.  When I was ready to leave, MS took my credit card & ran my bill.  How nice of her.  Saved me walking & standing & waiting.  Nice of her.
    Our next stop was the Barnyard Creamery.  They close this weekend for the winter.  All they had was chocolate soft serve.  Very good.  I will miss them.
    Last stop was the grocery store.  Cinder & I are out of lunch meat.
    I had misplaced two different different tv dinners that I could not find.  Found them last night.  Duh!!!???  One was my lunch ---- meat loaf, mashed potatoes & gravy.  Yummy.
    The town was full of traffic & trick & treaters.  I was relieved to get out of town.
    MM worked tonight at the Sale BARn & his costume was a sheriff one.  So he asked our real sheriff to make a walk through!!  He is the best!!  We are lucky too have him, TR.
    I got home & nary a cat in sight.  Pretty soon they both were near me.  No idea where they had been.  They have hiding places.
    It is 47F out now.  There was a rain cloud just north of me earlier today.  Nothing here.  30+ is forecast for morning again.  Hope I am not so chilly tonight.
    Fotos are all Halloween.  Some are still shots from a video.  Maybe a few tomorrow.  Maybe.  Maybe not.  For November I always try to post something I am thankful for every day.  I try.



Near JR.




I combined 2 fotos.

Great!!!!  Bring on cool weather!

10/2025 - Jueves the 30th - MY JOURNEY

 


Very pretty Dalahäst





Today's Name Day:  Elsa, Isabella
Have known an Elsa or two.  A friend on FB has a dog named Isabella.

    Much better day.  Slept more & only 1 low BS episode.  Nice.  This afternoon was good also.  No low BS.  Nice nap time.
    I always watch the CBS news at 530pm.  Every  day it seems shorter & shorter.  Guess I am usually busy & don't pay attention.
    Met MM for lunch.  He thought he was working this morning but was not.  He works tonight so we had lunch together, nice & relaxful lunch.  Nice visit.  I enjoyed it.  I knew 2 of the help.  Good to see them.
    Then KN & one of his friends DD came in for lunch.  Great to see them.  DD has been ill but looks awesome!!  Then a couple came in & sat behind me.  I did not recognize them.  So I asked who they are.  OMG!! They guy is EC.  Known him since he was a child.  Knew his family.  We reconnected!!!  Nice!!  His 2 sisters both live far away from here.  Cannot find him on FB.  Dang.    
    Weather was good today.  In the 50s but last night I saw it got down to 30F here!!!  Our first freeze.  Some place in Kansas had a few snow flakes yesterday durning the day.  Did not amount to much.  But it is coming!!!  😀❆  In the 30s forecast for tonight also but warms up for the kids tomorrow night.  Next week is very dry.  The weather man says Salina is an inch & a half above normal. They may be but not me.  We always miss much of the rain.  Always.
    MM & his friend W are going to fix the screen on my bedroom window.  It is shredded beyond help.  Next week.
    Ordered some new foods for me to eat.  They are puff pastries.  Main dishes & desserts.  Tonight I had eggs & meat & for dessert apple pie.  I did one wrong but it still tasted good.  Dessert was great.  I have had them before but forgot how they heat.  Next time will go better.
    Spanish is next.  I dread it.  Last night went fairly good.  Just makes me nervous.  Maybe I should just not care & do what I can.  No matter how bad.  If I can't, I can't.  Who cares!!
    Tonight is my fave tv night.  Two good shows.  Fun tonight!
    Photos today are a seasonal mix.
     





Me for Day of the Dead.  Wish I could do this for real!!









Kisse


Cinder & Nico loving each other.  We sure miss Nico.

10/2025 - Miércoles the 29th - MY JOURNEY

 




Love my kids.  Miss Nico.  When he died I lost a huge part of my heart & soul.



Today's Name Day:  Viola 💕
Good friends with a sweet lady named Viola.  She & her husband were god parents to our son.  Was good friends with her daughter-in-law years ago.  Miss her & her husband.  They lived in Falun. KS.

    Not a good day.  Awake all night & no sleep.  So no work today.  Or eating out.  Tired of being sick.  Or sickly.
    I took a short nap after lunch.  Woke up early.
    Some texts today.  Mostly from MM.  Back at the hospital having his ribs checked out.  Has 2 broken ribs.  Hope all is ok.  One email from JL.  A photo from CF but nothing more.  Photo from the Sale BARn about a party on friday night.  Would be fun but I won't be there.  Dang.  I would feel out of place.
    Major stress about finances.  Gotta spend less & I expect at least 1 other to help.  Spending far too much.  When my money is gone it all ends for everyone.
    Freeze warning for tomorrow morning.  See if that happens.  I feel chilly today but the temp inside is normal.  No more rain.  Then friday is ok.  Not too cold or windy.  Does not matter to me.  Might eat supper out.
    Photos are a seasonal mix.  Will do photos of Halloween tomorrow & friday.
  




Love him!!!


This is my favorite quote..  Loved it for many years.
