9/2026 -Saturday the 12th - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Åsa , Åslög

I  did have a swedish friend named Åsa.  But never hear from her anymore.  We were just friends on Flickr.

    Today was a good day.  I slept good after being up too early.  I rarely woke up.  On weekends when MH is opening for me I try to be there early.  That way he can go eat as he wants.

    There was a couple who came in right away.  I got organized & signed in, donated, started taking photos right away.  Both east & west rooms are full of art.  very good.  His photos are easy to take photos of so tomorrow I have to put them in a folder & name it.

    Weather has been awesome. The low was 71F.  The high was 85F.  This weather app shows monday to be 100F.  But only one day.  All other days are 80s to 90s.  And possibly rain.  It is hopeful. But is it true???

    JR came in to see MH art & take photos.  He took lots of photos.  I think MH is talking again at the end of the month.  I will make that talk!!!

    The afternoon was rather steady with visitors of all ages.  Pleasant.  I never got tired.  I charged my iPad & then my phone.  I left my bag there under the desk.  Saved me carrying it twice.

    Think I have weekend eating figured out.  I am not paying to eat twice every weekend.  One saturday will eat at Jalisco's the next weekend is Sunday at China.  That seems fair.

    Fun to see my amigos at Jalisco's plus I heard from a friend in Mexico.  I have been worried about him.

    I got my glucose sensors yesterday & just got one hooked up.  The first one did not work.  So threw it away.  Second one is perfect.  Great!!

    Going to my Swedish group was great yesterday.  Many actually were glad to see me.  Lots of greetings & hugs.  And the president asked if I would lead the group in Our Father in Swedish.  I was honored.  Nice.  A friend is here from New York so we sat together like we used to.  Good times.

    The photos for today are all from Europe.  Something different.  Beautiful photos.

    I actually feel good today.  Rare.  Except when I got home my knee about gave out.  No bueno.  Right now it is quiet.  I have had neck pain for 2 days.  Why?  Better tonight.

The artist of the photos today.  From her blog.

6/2026 - Friday the 5th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day:  Bo

    Today was a great day with perfect Kansas wonderful weather.  Who could ask for more?  I feel great with no pain or sugar problems.  So healthy.

    Interacted with many local people today.  Great to be around folks with Swedish ancestry.  The best!

    Spent time in a coffee shop.  Perfect.  Then later in a 2 local business.  And lots of locals.

    Have been familiar with a local artist & his work.  Today we had a good visit & I admitted we are related.  And I had a couple of stories about the farm he lives on.  He might have enjoyed them.  I only want to please others.

    I admire people who can fall sleep at the drop of a hat no matter where they are.  Cool & lucky.

    I am home now with my cats.  Inside cats are sleeping & Daisy is eating.

    I am making lots of changes after some faults I am now aware of.  Hope I offend no one.  And if I have, I apologize.

    Celebrated a friends birthday today.  Sweet!!

                                                                    

           

 

6/2026 - Wednesday the 3rd - MY JOURNEY

 

I have discovered having an egg on rice at Jalisco's.  Excellent!!!

Today's Name Day:  Ingemar , Gudmar

I had a couple of Swedish relatives named Ingmar.  Special cousins.  Glad I got to meet them.

    Today was a good day.  I slept pretty good,.  Pain not too bad except my hands & wrists.  Really bad.  And today at work I banged my bad knee on either my chair or desk. Thought I would faint.  But I walked to my car ok,  Whew.

    LL was not at work .  Doing some paper work for her mother about moving here.  Tiring work,

    Figured out something new on the scanner.  I am trainable!!

    The swimming pool is open.  I got a few photos of kids on the slide.  And for some reason many of the kids come to the Old Mill for snacks.  Candy & soda.  No idea why.  But it keeps us busy!!!  And has happened for years.

    Supper was at Jalisco's.  Had not seen AR for a while.  I was scared he was upset with me.  But today he came to see me with smiles & a hug,  All is good

    I forgot to put any drinks in my frige to get cold.  JR ran into Dollar General for some diet soda for me. Good.

    I had ordered a new Remarkable 2 & it came today.  I use mine all the time.  This one is tiny.  Love it!!  It synched with what is on my original one.   Nothing awful. Still have my old one so I can copy from it if needed.

    Photos are many I have taken.  Great  clouds today.  I found some new flowers but they did not make it here.  Tomorrow they will be here.

    Rain in the area,  Got really humid after lunch,  Hate it.

TV in Jalisco's.
