9/2026 - Friday the 25th - MY JOURNEY



This photo always makes me cry.  What a loss for our town.


Today's Name Day:  Tryggve


    Today was a good day.  The night was so-so.  Trouble sleeping.  Then rain started. Heavy for a while.
    Met LL for lunch at the White Peacock.  Tried a new sandwich ---- Det Bäste.  Means "the best".  Forget what kind of bread but the meat was turkey, bacon, ham, & lingonberries.  Excellent.  Next time they can skip the turkey & add another slice of bacon.
    I ordered a new purse that looked roomier.  It is.  Holds all that is important & feels lighter.  And I look better than with it than with the old purse.
    I was just out to check on Daisy.  It is raining & I can see lightning & hear thunder.  Hope it scares the wildlife away.  Might be too wet for Daisy to go under the house.  Porch is better.  Or under the car.
    Work was ok.  On my last Grondal group of photos.  Next are different photographers.  Had some cool photos today.  Names or greetings on the back of a few.  Fun.  One was taken around 1922.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  It was quiet for a while.  Then a huge crowd appeared.
    Last night my left eye got super painful in bed. No idea why,  I found some eye drops.  Sort of helped.  Briefly,  This afternoon at work it got really painful & hard to see.  And got worse after eating supper.  I just wanted to leave.  JR was clueless to my pain.  I was all ready to leave.  When we left I was able to get home before I started crying.  All alone with Daisy. A quien le importa.  Always alone with no one for support or caring.  Fighting tears again now.  I ordered my usual eye drops.  Get here tomorrow.  Will try to do laundry tomorrow.  Pain or no pain.  I have some trash that really needs to be carried out.  Maybe.  See how much pain I have.  A quien le importa.
    Hope it rains all night,  Large radar area of rain,  I can dream.
    Found some old photos of me.  Sharing.

This is in our house that burned down.  I can guarantee this cake was not for me.  I never got a cake in my adult life until José became my friend.  My mom-in-law celebrated everyone's birthday but never mine.

A celebration at a the Red Barn.  An artist carved this indian.  It was cool.

This is not my hair.  Just the style early in my marriage.  A hair piece ---- a "fall"".  I had it fixed for me.

I have no clue where I am.  Do not remember this  jacket.  A long time ago!

Easter as a child. 1956.

Easter as a child. Maybe at Boppa's.









Desk at work

Me working at the Mill

Storage areas in buildings at the Mill are being cleared out & stored somewhere else.  Love the bird.  On the steps to the basement

02 march, 2023 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    Had a quiet night.  Slept good, not too warm or cold.  Surrounded by my fur kids.  Bless them!  The weather was supposed to be wet.  Ha.  Nary a drop of anything, not even dew here.  Maybe next week.  Maybe.

    Nico seems normal now.  Hope he is ok.  He still is careful about jumping up on the bed/sofa or jumping down.  So his hind leg must still be a little sore.

    I have heard from both grandsons today.  Was supposed to pick one up at his work tomorrow but he has other plans.  I am disappointed but hopefully another day soon.  Miss him.

    My other grandson is ill & injured.  I am worried.  Hope he gets it all fixed & worked out.  Wish I could help but not much I can do.

    I have these small tv dinners I eat often.  Easy to fix & filling.  Tonight I got creative.  I heated a beef, mashed potatoes, & gravy ones.  Then I poured it over a slice of homemade bread.  It was almost as good as what I had in Yoder.  Have to do it more often.

    Had a nice nap today.  Killed time so I just don't think about being alone all the time.  Did not sit out too long.  Breeze is chilly.  But Nico & Cinder played a little bit.  Cinder likes it out but has to keep coming in to eat.  She is spoiled.

    Photos today are from Lindsborg KS, my town.  They are older photos.
