01/2026 - Lördagen den 31: e - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Ivar, Joar

    Another quiet day.  One email.  One text from a friend that always sends a "good morning"  text & a "good night"  text.  Everyone else quiet & ignoring me.  So I took a nap.  Cold outside in the teens so my bed was cozy.
    Got up from my nap & found Cinder sleeping near where they are fed.  I gave her more food.  Think she did eat a little bit.  Now sleeping by the TV.  Kisse is somewhere in the bedroom I assume.
    Last day of January.  Seems like the month went fast.  But the first week of February is going to be far too warm.  In the 40s & 50s.  A little warmer would be fine but no too much.  One weather says our snow may still not all be melted.
    Got word yesterday that a cousin in KC passed away.  I always liked him.  Great sense of humor.  I remember him from high school although he was older than me.  And another cousin seriously ill in Kentucky.  Doubt she will survive.  In ICU on a ventilator.   Sad times.
    Photos are a mix.  Fewer than usual.  Trying to cut down.

Today's Name Day:  Gunhild, Gunilla

    Not a good day.  I got no sleep last night.  And various health problems that are probably caused by the change in the weather.
    I guess we had some light snow this afternoon  but I was napping.  I missed it.  The super cold air is moving in.  So far the house is comfy.  So far.
    Cinder was with me during my nap.  She wanted something.  Whining & begging.  Either more food or her litter pan cleaned out.  I have done both & both cats are happy.
    Probably did not need a long nap but it felt good.  Warm & cozy.  And Cinder on me too.
    Every one is quiet today.  Heard from JL & JR.  CF posted a photo on his FaceBook.  I called LL early to tell her I was not able to come to work.  My blood sugar was screwy so not safe to drive.
MM was at work today.  Glad he is better.
    Photos are a mix.  Nothing special.








Cinder has good taste in TV shows!

Church in Sweden.  Wish my church had a place where you can light candles.












What a great memory.  How I miss Nico.

01/2026 - Torsdagen den 29:e - MY JOURNEY




Today's Name Day:  Diana 💕
I have really known one Diana.  The same one we all know.



    Today is a day of rest.  No plans.  Only had an email or two from JL.  Everyone else quiet.  Got sort of chilly overnite & today it is not warming up.  Cold tonight with a chance of light snow tomorrow & saturday.  Then glad for a weekend off.  Will try to work at the SVAFC next friday.
    Was glad that my propane tank got refilled today.   Scary to be so cold.  Although they have an emergency number if you run out when it is so cold.  But I would have to bother anyone.
    Just a sampling of photos.  Trying to cut down.

Piece of art I edited a little.  Belonged to a good friend.




Bike at the Stuga one day



Blacksmith Coffee House

Kansas Prairie








My driveway full of black birds.  I dislike them.  They are a mess.


My hidden dream to be a rocker babe.  A friend has a band I would fit in but I have no talent.

  Today's Name Day:  Valentin     No blog today.  Too many memories.  Tried to nap but ended up crying.  No one needs to hear my thought...
