7/2026 - Friday the 17th- MY JOURNEY

Photos from work today. The box is my new box of photos. Full!!

Today's Name Day: Bruno

Today was a good day. I slept pretty good.

I had a message from KN. My front door ---- screen door ---- has been broken since one of our high wind storms. But two days ago I could not keep it closed for anything. I asked KN to come look at it to see if it was fixable. He fixed it except it needs a latch. Will do that tomorrow. I am so relieved.

While eating lunch I spilled part of my juice in my lap. Had to change clothes. Dang. What a clutch.

Work was good. But no one will help me with the error my scanner keeps making. LL came home from her trip with a cold. She stayed away from me so we did not get to talk. I have a nose spray I use when ever I am not home. It is good for 9 hours of killing germs, viruses, etc. I think it helps.

I finished a large box of photos. And started a new huge box of more photos. I am almost done with the first bunch. Only 2 tiny photos left.

Supper was at Jalisco's. As I left for home there was a huge rain cloud to the west. Nothing here yet. Dang. Last chance for rain for at least 10 day. Days of warnings for heat start this weekend. Ick. I hate summer. I have a doctor's appointment on monday in Hutchinson. I do not want to drive alone on the hottest day of the year. Will change. My safety is more important.

I was so tired and tried to nap when I got home.. Failed. But my laptop is working propertly. For a change.

Cinder came to find me when I got home. I fed Daisy. She gets fed one more time. Not seen Kisse yet. But I have not walked down the hall yet.

White Peacock patio.

Love this one.

This is so sweet

7/2026 - Friday the 10th- MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: André , Andrea

I have known an Andrea or two. Went to school with one older than me.

Today was a good day. I worked at the Old Mill Musuem. My scanner still does not work like I want but not a big problem. Just a couple of extra steps for me. Really nice to see everyone.

My dozen Chicago cousins asked when I worked & I hoped they would come to see me. But they must have had more important things to do. I am sad. I will never see then again. Only on FB. Think they leave on monday. No time for me.

Supper was at Jalisco's. A friend sat with us. Nice visit.

No rain here today. And after tonight there is zero chance for rain for at least 10 days. And temps all over 90F. I hate summer. Had a snow cone for dessert. Cannot have one often. Blood sugar gets too high. Cool out now.

Today is my great grandson Atlas's 6th birthday. Celebrating on sunday. He is a sweetheart. Little older photo. Kids are left to right: Sorion, Atlas, Junior. Father is MM.

Need to feed Daisy one more time. Tomorrow maybe I can sit with her early in the day. Too busy today.

I am ready to rest in bed. Tired. Nothing tomorrow. Gave her food & as I started to come back in a large feral cat appeared. White legs/feet with a the rest of her a very pale pale orange. Gave Daisy extra where that cat could not see.

I try to ignore those who ignore me.

Words to the wise.

Daisy

6/2026 - Friday the 12th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Eskil

I had one friend named Eskil from Sweden. He was at the college for a couple of months. He was a composer, performer, leader of the Stockholm opera & orchestra. We took a bus trip together. He sat with me. When I was in Sweden he told me to call to say hi. I did. He died later than year in surgery. He was the best. I was lucky to know him a little.

Today was a good day. Had a project at work that I finished today. Glad it is over. Came out perfect. I also had 2 huge pictures to scan. Learned that I can't edit them like all the others. Easy to figure out though.

I am working on the last bunch of photos of people & families. But I swear there is easily a thousand photos to work on. Yikes!!! Have work life figured out for a while!

Supper was at Jalisco's. I had a phone call from Mexico to tell MA about. And he had a map to show me & figure out where my house is.

New young man was working tonight. I asked who he was. MA said I already knew him. Oh my!! It was MA's son but with blond hair!!! Sure made him laugh. Me too. He looks good. AH came out to say hi twice. Good to see MS. And the two cooks came out also. The one has always called me his aunt. I tease him & call him my aunt also!!! I am mean!!! Good meal.

I asked for a small portion of rice with an egg that was partially runny. It was perfect. Great cooks!!

Drove around town a bit after supper. JR never knew where our dad's brother lived & the former owner of the Stuga. They were neighbours. Now he knows. And we got to see lots of tree damage. Some truly awful scenes. And one house with some sad damage. Fixable though.

I cannot get the internet at home. Driving me crazy. I have rebooted my wifi many times. Something is wrong some where. Verizon, phone company, storm problems. Super tired of it. It worked for one day then gone. Grrrr.

No storms tonight. Great. And probably not tomorrow either. Maybe.
