9/2026 - Tuesday the 29th - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Mikael , Mikaela
Special day.  It is grandson Mikael's name day.  I even sent him a card for it.  And being national coffee day made it more special for him too.  I did good!!!  


    Today was an ok day.  Rainy today.  Nice!!  And no worries about Daisy.  I had 2 large boxes of mail & she tried to escape when I went out to open.  No way.  Rainy!!  She would have got under the house.  Awful!!
    Only one text.  Quiet day.  I am used to it.  But tonight I got a phone call from JR who lives in NY.  Miss her.  Glad we have reconnected.  Talked for almost 2 hours.
    Rain supposed to start later & last all night & day.  Will watch & see how close it gets to my driveway.  Had an inch today.  Very nice.  If it looks like it is getting full I am staying home.  If it would flood while I am at work I might not get home.
    My blood sugar is still a mess.  Runs low too often.  I was running out of things to eat but have cinnamon rolls now.  That will help.  No cookies left here at home.
    Stayed cool all day & night.  Nice sleeping.
    Got another cat bed.  They have been have been missing most of tonight.  At one point Kisse came tearing across me on the sofa followed by Daisy!!  Hope someone likes the new bed.
    Time for bed.  Hoping for more rain.


So cute!! Love this one.


Cool,


Really love this one.



Ready for snow




Love this one.










In my dreams..........

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.














Two photos of ladies I am working with.

8/2026 - Wednesday the 19th - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Måns , Magnus
I have known a Magnus since he was a child.  His grandmother would bring him to my Swedish Friendship group.  Now he is an adult married man.  Super nice.


    Today was an ok day.  Good night of sleep.  Less pain.  Always nice.  I had a spell of low blood sugar at the end of work & nothing to eat in my purse.  I never let that happen , but it did today.  I survived.  LL helped.  At supper treated myself to Mexican soda.  Too good for words.
    Finished one set of photos,  And started a new one.  Even found some photos with names & writing on them.  Always fun to share & see if anyone knows anything.
    There was rain in town this morning.  Nary a drop in my yard,  As usual,  We are officially in the drought area of Kansas,  Sad.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  My usual friends were off today.  Glad MA was working today.  He always talks when he has time.
    I noticed our one business in town selling used stuff was packed with people.  And so was our swimming pool,  It closes this sunday.  No more fun!!
    Did not sit out with Daisy today.  Will have time tomorrow.
    Need groceries tomorrow.  My next job.






Too die for!!!!





Friends at Jalisco's always take liberty with my bill!!!
