9/2026 - Monday the 28th - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Lennart , Leonard

I have known a Leonoard or two.

    Today was great weather.  Hope it lasts.  They have heavy rain forecast starting wednesday or thursday then for several more days. I hope they are correct

    I met my friend RG for a Jalisco lunch.  Not too busy.  Good to see my friends there.  I have sure missed him.  Good conversation.  I know I talk too much when all I have are my cats. I try not to talk to much.

    I did not sleep well last night so I was tired.  Thanks to my 3 cats.  They were restless.  Small moments of hissing.  I let Daisy outside yesterday but not today.  When I went out she did not try to follow.  Maybe the wild animal ife outside is not so good.

    Sure did not take me long to get ready to go to out today.  They already have food out & fresh water.  The wild ones are officially out of water & food.

    Daisy was laying on me on the sofa.  Then she moved to a north window to sleep & look outside.  Now she is back to the sofa.  Laying on my chest.

    No other comments from anyone else today.

    I need groceries but maybe later tonight.  Maybe I can wait until thursday.  No plans for that day.

    The other sort of volunteer is quitting as of today.  I am thinking of maybe changing the days I work. Maybe be easier on me over all,  Thinking about it.

    I have been ill off & on for around 3 weeks.  JR for 2 days.  And a friend was sick yesterday.  He has other health issues but same old stuff like me.  I might need to start wearing a mask.  If I think that will help.  Need to schedule a covid shot & a flu shot.

    Time for spanish.  Has been ok.  I just quit when I feel like it.  Am too tired to care.

This is the end of my sunflowers & all other flowers.  Cool weather perked them up today.

Pink flowers that bloom after rain.  Still looking good.  Too lazy to look them up again.

Leaves have not started changing color yet here.

                                                         

              

12/2023 Lördag the 16th -- Wandering & Capturing Moments

 

National Ugly Sweater Day

Today's Name Day is Assar

    Not the best of days but ended sort of better.   Waited all day yesterday for my credit card company to call to help me fix my card app.   I got nada.   Finally this afternoon my patience died.   I called them.   The first helper did nothing for me,   Not sure she had a clue what I tried to tell her.   Called a second time.   This helper actually got it.   She transfered me to the right department.   And gave me their phone number.   I got a guy who knew his stuff.   He had me do a couple of things & it finally worked!!!   Miracle!!!  He instructed me to wait a while then delete then entire program & reload it,   I almost needed a shot of tequila.   I was terrified I would have to call him back,   But it loaded right up with no problem.   He assured me that my bank, etc. was not the problem but something in the software.   Thank you so much Leonard!!!

    Nico was even good while I was on the phone,   That is a major shock!!   And a blessing.   Last night he seemed different.   Really worried me.   But today he was just Nico.   I think his time is short.   And I am terrified.   But I will have to face that alone.   Trust me.   I will be extra invisible at that time.

    I had some Amazon supplies on the porch so I took Nico out while I opened boxes, sorted things, organized boxes.   It was chilly out but not too bad.   We both needed some fresh air.

    I pretty much cancelled today.   I just did not have it in me to go to town & eat.   I am out of some food things here but I won't starve.   Nico & I shared pasta.   Pretty good.

    Early this afternoon I watched Home Alone 1.   I love that movie.   And I love when the spider is on the one bad guy!!!   I got the giggles!!!   Needed to giggle!

    A small series of bad things happened tonight & I ended up having a major meltdown.   Losing Nico is really getting to me.   And Christmas is not helping.   In one month I lost my best friend, my mom, & my husband.   All with no support group or family support.   

At least they were not all in the same year!!!   Christmas & family ended for me when Mom died.   I have tried to do cards but just cannot handle the stress.   I used to make all my own cards.   No more!!   I thought I had family support when Willie died but how wrong I was.   What a shock to me.   How did I miss their real feelings?

    I taped the daytime Emmy awards show.   So much better than watch that way.   I can fast forward through the people & shows I do not care about,   Then I watch the commercials.   It usually seems the awards are rather one sided,   But the best actor & actress were from my show!!   That never happens.

    I am still pouting about never getting snow here.   We cannot even get normal winter weather.   I wrote on FB about my feelings.   Those summer loving people always get the weather they want.   It is almost always hot, sunny, no rain.   But I rarely get what I enjoy.   And I am not alone.   I belong to a group that dislikes summer.   They give lots of support to each other.

    Have too many photos on my phone so have some sorted & deleted.   THAT makes me stressed.,

    Photos are the seasonal ones again.
