8/2026 - Saturday the 1st- MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Per

I have a cousin in Sweden name Per.  Full name is Per Ola.  I have met him.  Nice guy.

    Today went better than I expected.  Last night I was reading email around 4am.  And yikes!!  I saw I worked this weekend.  I quickly texted MH to open & close for me.  Luckily answered right away.  I had a hard time to sleep after that.  I kept changing my alarm time.  I got up much too late but I got me dressed & fed, the cats fed & Daisy fed.  I got more food today so Daisy is ok now.  And I got more V8 Energy drink for me.,  We all are ok now.

    I am tired of trash in my yard.  There is a guy who cleans up messes.  I will gladly pay him to drive out here,  Might have to call him this week & see what he says.  Makes my stress so bad.

    Work was good.  Had a long time artist friend come in to work..  She is now 92.  She lived in a nice house here for many years.   Her house was where my great great grandmother lived &. my great grand mother lived there at the same time.  She gave me a room by room & floor by floor tour once. Only time I ever got in there like that.  Her name is Mary Erickson.  Great artist.  Got to know her & her husband quite well.  Such nice people,

    This week we vote.  And I have an xray on the same day.  Tired. of being busy,  Need some days off,  Not this week,  Think the next week dr, appointmet in Hutch 

    Had our yearly old car show today.  I borrowed on grouping of photos from a friend to share here.  I never go.  Especially when I have trouble walking.

    Not too warm today.  Nice out.  Work was busy.  Lots of people in & out.  Kept me awake.  Had 2 fun people that came in.  No rain in the next couple of days.  There are a couple of days that are maybes.

11/2025 - Sábado the 22nd - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Cecilia, Sissela

Friends now with a Cecilia but she uses another name.

    Another quiet day, had little sleep overnight.  My sugar kept dropping to the 60s.  Around eveery 2 hours.  I got so tired of eating.  Today was much better.

    Very little communication today.  Only emails from JL in California.  Too warm to day.  But Cinder liked the sun shining in the bedroom window so she snuggled all afternoon.  Very nice.

    Had one guilty photo from CF.  No talking.  Photo meant nothing to anyone.  He sends his one photo everyday but no info on how he is or anything about his life.  I try to add things about me but he is not interested.  He said we would be live chatting with his other grandmother but has not happened yet.  Know nothing about her now.  Never see her.

    Nothing today fron LL or MM.  Probably won't hear from her all week.  With family.  MM working.

    Too warm.  Bedroom full of flies again.  Will try to tape the bottom of it & one hole in it.  See if that helps.  Not begging for help.  Been there done that.  Won't do it again.

    Cooler tomorrow with rain starting.  Heavy on monday.  Gotta get to the pharmacy on monday.  Meds to pick up.  Just to drive through.

    Photos are B&W ones, winter ones, some Swedish ones.

    B&W ones in Lindsborg.  Older ones.  Not from this year yet.  On Main Street.

Kalmar cast;le (slott) in the city of Kalmar.  I have been in it.  Very cool.

Crossed over & under the water to Danmark.  Super cool!!!

This one & the next are Swedish art.  I think Carl Larsson.
