National Do A Grouch A Favor Day

    Another calm day.  I was planning to go to my old Swedish group but we had snow & the road reports I read said slick with cars off the road.  I went back to my cozy bed.  Dang.  I really wanted to go to this meeting.  Great program.

    We got around one inch of snow.  Enough for slick roads.  I got a few photos, but nothing spectacular.  Last night the weatherman said the snow would melt after lunch when our temps would be in the 40s & sunny.  HA.  We stayed in the freezing temps with no sun.  No melting snow.  Cinder went out early in the snow.  Maybe ready to come in now.

    Poor JR.  He had a bad flu, as many in town do.  Got over that mostly but today he has a bad cold.  Not his week at all.  No eating out today.  Not much good to eat here either.  Dang.

    KC shooting update.  One of the 3 arrested has been released.  He saw a gun that was tossed aside, picked it up, & walked away.   The two juveniles are the shooters.  Throw the book at them I hope.  What idiots.

    Not much to say when I have not done much.  Photos today are from a past art show.  All mine.

Singles Awareness Day

Today's Name Day: Sigfrid

    Had a better day.  Gave up using my weighted blanket.  Folded it at the end of the bed & used 2 thin & light blankets.  I slept like a baby!  Not sure why.  It has bothered me for 2 nights in a row.

    It did get cold last night.  The cold front came through.  Today got in the 40s but colder & snow tonight.  Not much snow, of course.

    I found out the hard way that the med I am on for my diabetes that cuts my appetite down is not fooling.  If you eat too much you will get ill.  I almost did.  Really did not eat much, so I thought.  But did not last long.  Had a nice nap.  Cinder hit the road early today.  Came in now & quickly back out.

    Cinder surprised me last night.  She came in & ate just a bit.  Then she started begging to go back out,  It was almost bedtime so I ignored.  She was going nuts.  So I finally let her out.  Checked on her in just a few minutes & she was at the door.  Had she decided to potty outside if possible??  I guess that is ok.

    More on the KC shooting.  Three arrested & 2 are juveniles.  And the focus of the news is how to be safe in crowds, etc.  Should be why do we not get guns off the streets for a start.  Oh, but it is never the right time.  Not the right time for polititians to lose their income from the gun lobbies.  Criminal.

    I needed to carry trash out today but no "spoons".  Tomorrow?  Probably saturday.  I need a new lightbulb in my hallway.  I might get that done.  Not too difficult.  Except I am short & and have a fear of heights.  I will try with my ladder.

    No major communication today with anyone.  Oh well.  People are busy.  I am used to being along.

    Photos today are black & white.  I like B&W photos.  So does JR.  More alike than I would imagine!!!  He is having a showing of his photos next year.  All will be B&W.  Exciting times!  None of these are mine.  I edited them on how the colors look.  And one was colored but I like it better as I did it.

National Cream-Filled Chocolates Day 

Today's Name Day:  Valentin

    Not a good day today.  Had an upset overnight that has left me in high stress & panic.  I cancelled my day.  Feeling better tonight.   I mostly rested today.  Got attention from Cinder & Kisse.  That was my day.

    Suffering from lots of guilt for not going to work today.  I was still shaky inside until after my nap.  Emotionally I am a mess.  It only affected me so that is ok.

    Another too warm day & night.  Tomorrow the wind changes & temps falling.  Might get an whopping inch of snow.  Cooler temps for a couple of days.

    Today was a huge parade for the winner of the Super Bowl.  At the end of the program there was a  mass shooting.  One is dead & many injured including children.  Three arrested.  What is wrong with out country?  We have had 47 mass shootings in the US since New Years.  And the politicians are singing a sad song.  As usual.  But they do nothing to prevent shootings.  They only care about money not people.

    Calm out today.  The prairie looked calm & my pond was quiet.  Cows were not here so I did not see them.

    I treated me to an order from a cheese company not too far from here.  It came yesterday.  There are cheeses, some chocolate, a cheese spread, crackers.  Until Willie got dementia he always got me flowers.  No one else thinks of me.  So I thought of myself.

    Photos today are photos of art.
