3/2026 - Tisdagen den 3:e - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Gunborg,  Gunvor

    A bit better day.  Slept ok last night. Nap today.  So far less pain.
    Ignored by almost everyone except JL, BC, & JR.  No one asks how I am.  If I sleep tonight I will work tomorrow.
    BC is a friend but we do not hang out.  His mother was the president of where I went to nursing school.  Cool lady.  He misses her so much.  But we have started texting each other.  I enjoy his company.  He has some challenges in his life.
    I rarely mention I was a "nurse".  Got treated so bad at the hospital I worked at.  When I started there LPN's were treated with respect.  Eventually they wanted all of us gone.  Even Mom never called me a nurse.  Only the RNs did she call them "real nurses."  So the powers that be & my coworkers treated us badly.  I just never talk about it.  I loved my patients, their families, & many of the doctors.  I learned to try not to ask for assistance.  Likely not to get any.  I did what I could.  Glad I am not there anymore.  Love my jobs now.  Great coworkers.  I am lucky!
    We had fog overnight & this morning.  SnapChat kept showing rain on graphics there.  Duh.  Fooled me.  Fog does not show on radar.  Stayed cool here.  Western Kansas got to the 60s & sun.  We stayed cloudy.  Prefer that.
    Thunderstorms to develope tonight.  I am not included in it as usual.  More chances on friday.  Those storms are to stay east of me or NW of me.  See if my pain increases.
    I found that the mailman put two light weight packages on the top of my trash bins.  God forbid he could walk up to my porch.  I went out on the porch & saw the llamas so grabbed my camera.  While sitting there I saw these white packages on the ground between the trash bins.  New mail.  One package was from eBay that I had a notice almost 2 weeks ago saying it had been delievered.  I never found it.  I looked.  So here it is on the ground in the dirt today.  What??  Mailman got tired & threw the package on the floor of his car & he forgot about it??  Such poor service.  Last week he crammed a box in my mailbox.  It was so large & tight I bet he shoved it in with his feet.  My hands hurt from arthritis & they have little strength.  I almost had to call for help.  Took a while & lots of pain but I finally got it out.  I am thinking about a phone call to complain.
    Hard to get comfy at night.  Turn the heat down then my feet get cold.  Huh???  Turn the heat up & I get too warm.  Even socks do not help my feet.
    Photos are mostly from one place.  Already have some for tomorrow.  Ones I have taken.


I thought so!!!!
Look at the figures on the ground!!!








Sweet birds.

When I worked at the Red Barn an artist I had a special friendship with left this in the window when he went home from his show here.

My front yard with Coco & Charlie, our llamas.  The hill is White Cross Hill.  Has a large white cross on the side of it made of rocks & painted white.

09/2025 - Sábado the 27th - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Dagmar, Rigmor
Had an ancestor in Sweden named Dagmar.  Knew the husaband of one.

    Another day of rest.  Normal day for me.  Heard from MM at work, CW on holiday, KC accepted my friend request.  Plus I have figured out how she knows me.   Weather too warm.  Hope the cool weather gets here soon,
    KN used to have large parties at their house.  Invite all the neighbours but they assumed I knew everyone.  I knew no one.  I worked long hours in Salina.  So I would always go to their parties but I would usually sit quietly & visit with few.  I am sure her family were there but I was clueless.  And quiet.  And somehow she liked me.  Glad.  Willie would give all the kids attention.  She must have just added me to him.  I am glad.  And she is a nurse today.  A "real" nurse as Mom used to day.  I was only an LPN & not important..  I never talk about those days now.  I am friends with 3 "real" nurses.  I ignore me as a "nurse".  Always.
    I have worked through my feelings & what I have been accused of.  And announced that as a child I never hurt anyone & with photos of us that my parents did not hate me.  If it happens again he will not be a happy camper.
    TV better today. National Geographic & Josh Gates.  I am really ready for SNL to start.  Couple of weeks or so.
    Fotos are a mix but sort of organized.


This table looks exactly like thetable I use to sort my fotos on.  Not the same though.








Love this & wish it was mine.  The dreams of fools.........





Would be fun to shop here in Morocco.  Plus a friend lives there.

Sweden,  this one & the next.


My sweet baby.  I have no words to describe how much I love & miss him.
