8/2026 - Monday the 3rd - MY JOURNEY

 

Awesome old old photo of an old car & Old Main.


Today's Name Day:  Tage

    Today was an ok day.  Slept good last night.  A cool night.  Maybe rain around tonight & Wednesday,  Cooler tomorrow.  We also have smoke coming from western US,
    I tried to nap today but about 20 minutes later Dr. Baxa called.  Had a good visit.  Said my bones in the earlier xrays showed lots of bone damage.  But no swelling of joints.  Yet.  He is sure I have times when I am in lots of pain but not all the time.  He is ordering 2 new meds for me to pickup.  Maybe tomorrow or Wednesday.  I really like him.  Nice personality & thorough.
    This week is super busy.  Tuesday we vote here in Kansas.  Scary.  No maga for governor please!!!! And I have my last xray.  Bone density?  Work at the Old Mill on Wednesday.  The Mill board wants the historical board to join them in their meeting,  Totally screws my day up.  I cannot go all afternoon & part of the evening with no food.  My diabetes won't allow that.  Have to plan on bringing some kind of food to eat around 5pm.  Thursday I eat out with my thursday group.  Friday I am working for MH.  I have ignored him too much.  He has a show at SVAFC in september.  I Want to give him extra time to paint.  But I am not working on saturday.  I need a break.  Time to take care of me.  Then on monday I go to Hutch for a doctor's appointment.  Sheesh. Then a normal week.,
    Today is MM's oldest son's birthday.  He will be a second grader.  No news on his party.  Hope I am included.

Recent photo of Atlas, Sorion, & Mikael Jr.  Jr is the birthday guy!

 I gave up on a nap.  I had some large bags of trash that I needed to get rid of.  Bet I found 10 bags of trash and more,  Hard to carry them all out.  Daisy just had to be in the way!!!  But I gave her treats for helping me.  I did sit outside for a short time so we could cuddle. I threw away some boxes from outside.  I am done.  I know that my blood sugar got low.  Need supper now.
    saw I got more mail outside.  Get it later.  Too tired now.
    Around noon a "son" from Bangladesh texted me.  We have trouble texting.  Our times a so far apart.  But nice visit.  And photos. Known him for several years.  He always calls me Mom.  And he wants to own a farm like I do.  Need to send him some photos of our cattle and our llamas.  All are gone for the summer.





My ancestors.  First guy is Knute Train.  Third guy is a Train also.





My Swedish memories. First heart is eating crayfish.  Second photo is me & a statue called a snaphans.  Maybe.  Third photo is me in someone's field & with a rune stone. Last photo is me with one foot in Norway & the other in Sweden.

Best cake ever.  Normal birthday cake in Sweden.  But can we get on in LBK???  No.


What I would not give for a real Swedish breakfast.







I am tired!!!

04/2025 Torsdag the 24th - Wandering & Capturing Moments


                                       

 Today's Name Day:  Vega


    Had a good day again.  Slept good.  No storms overnight.  Great clouds right now on my way home.  Will it rain tonight???  It is a crap shoot.
    MM wrote me yesterday that Junior wanted to see me but I missed seeing it.  So we met today at 6pm for Mexican food.  A meal filled with "I love yous" & many hugs.  Plus a great visit with a mutual friend LLy.  Great food & great company.  Sharing photos later.  It was moderately busy.
    Rain or no rain my car is filthy.  So I went to the car wash.  Did not work as good as usual.  Not happy.  There is a cool car wash in Salina I want to try.  I hear that tuesday is Ladies Day.  Might try next week or the week after.  Gotta be a better result.
    No cattle or llamas today.  Only my bulls.  Maybe tomorrow.
    Photos are  mostly from memories or taken today.
Taken at the Red Barn Museum

04/2025 Onsdag the 23rd - Wandering & Capturing Moments

 






The back of our local library.  Awesome paint mural.


Today's Name Day:  Georg, Göran
Known  more than one George.  In fact a family in town had a last name of George.  

    I had a good day today.  No storms last night after the  hail quit. When I went to work today it was thundering again.  And light rain off & on this afternoon.
    I got a lot of cloud photos while leaving for work.  Great photos.  Will share tomorrow..  Today most of my photos are flowers from the Old Mill & around town.  Beauty everywhere!
    Work was good.  I finished the photos of just buildings,  Whew!!  Got a huge box of photos from the local newspaper.  I got them sorted by size.  I got a few scanned.  Most are photos of people but no names.  I found a few with names I started with them so I did not have to bother LL.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  The one cook calls me Tia (aunt) so I call him mi sobrino (my nephew).  The new guy from the kitchen even laughed at us!!  The mi sobrino tried to tell me he was only un poco loco (a little crazy). but I insisted he was mucho loco (very crazy)!!  Makes eating there fun when they have time to joke.
    Storms west of us again now.  See if it comes here with hail again.  Photos now.  A couple of clouds from today & the rest flowers.
