9/2026 - Saturday the 19th - MY JOURNEY

 


Thunderstorm during supper

Today's Name Day:  Fredricka
I had a friend who named his dog this name.  She was adorable.

    Today was a good day.  Slept good.  A new pillow has helped.  I have 4 pillows on or near my bed,  None are comfy any more.  I saw one I hoped would do the trick.  Bought it.  Super soft & large.  I can turn it however I want,  Like it.  Hope that lasts.
    I slept late & no nap.  Got ready to go eat supper at Jalisco's with N&C.  I managed a burger & fries.  I have bought some pills to take with each meal to calm my tummy from anything unpleasant.  They taste good & seem to work,
    While eating a super cell storm broke.  Not for long but it rained hard with strong winds.  Fun to watch through the windows.  I checked when I got home.  I got  .94" of rain at home.  Miracle!!  Maybe KN can plant wheat soon.  Jalisco's got  .68"
    Nice to see our friends & chat.  We both have had health problems to stop our meeting.
    Did some texting with JL.  Supposed to meet MM but he went home & won't answer my phone calls.  He is probably upset with me.  I was quite tense last night.  Worried about going broke.  I apologized but probably did not matter.
    A quien le importa.
    Daisy did not wake up when I drove up to the house.  Took her a while.  But she had food & water.  Probably gone now.
    Street dance is next saturday.  I am not going.  No one to sit with or talk to.  Not sure what band.  No chair.  No one would care if I am there or not.  Especially now.  Better to rest.
    Washed clothes overnight.  Now to hang them up.  Not motivated.  But will get to it.

Storms clouds.

When Willie could harvest he would clean out the combines in our yard,  The turkeys loved it. Now no wheat & no turkeys.

Local band I think called the Blue Dozen.  Awesome.  Not sure.  As soon as JR printed it he found something cool in the next photo.

There is Mom, Dad, & me.  I have blonde hair, dark sweater,  & sunglasses, to my right is Mom, & Dad standing behind her by a post..






Finally rain!

5/2026 - Sunday the 24th - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Vanja , Ivan
I have known an Ivan or two.



    Today was a good day.  I slept really good with little pain & no medication reactions.  Whew!!!
    Cinder & Kisse mostly slept in the living room.  Odd.  Who knows about them.  Daisy was excited for breakfast.  She is sweet.  I need to just spend time outside with her.  I feel guilty.  I miss her family & assume they are all dead.  So sad.
    Met with friends N&C from McPherson.  Always a good visit.  Ate at the Pizza Hut & it was quiet.  We dared to talk some politics.  Glad to have friends I can do that with.  And visited with my fave waiter.  Good guy!!!
    Stopped to see my grandson.  Had something for him.  Planning lunch tomorrow at the Sale Barn. Jalisco's is closed.
    Tried to nap when I got home but Cinder wanted attention.  She won.
    Have a tiny tiny chance for rain tonight.  Ha.  Not on my farm.  We always miss out.
    Took flower photos in my driveway.  Then saw a pheasant in the tall grass.  Hard to get a good photo.  They are awful.  He was pretty though.
    Now it is Spanish lesson time.  Ugh. Not in the mood.

Supper.  Garlic bread,  Makes my blood sugar go to high.  I cannot win.

Family:  Cinder, Nico, & Kisse

My baby Nico,  Died a few years ago.  I am lost without him.

Cinder

Daisy.  Edited photo,

Me & Cinder

Good friend & grandson.  I rarely get to see either of them.


Wildflowers.  These have been blooming for the longest time.

3/2026 - Måndag den 23:e - MY JOURNEY

 



Me and a young Nico.  My heart hurts seeing him.



Today's Name Day:  Gerd, Gerda
Know a Gerd in Sweden.

    Today was an ok day.  Just super tired from my RA no doubt.  Stomach is ok so far.  Nice for a change.
    I had goals of things to do but too tired.  Hope I perk up sometime.  Might never happen.
    We got really cold last night.  It was 29F here. Highs in the 50s.  Winds around 22mph.  Hot again on thursday.  Then colder on friday.  No climate change or problems here.  😨
    Had an email from JL.  And my usual good mornig from N&C.  Everyone else quiet.
    I saw the llamas laying out in the pasture with cattle all around.  Grabbed my iphone & got some nice photos.  They were clueless.  I never called out to them.
    Had a short nap after lunch.  No cats near.  Kisse has a container of cat food she eats out of.  Then she disappeared. No cats seen all afternoon.  Both hiding out somewhere.  When I just turned the tv on here came Cinder.  She is laying on me now.
    MM has texted.  We need to meet tomorrow but heris moving this week.  We will do a work around to solve what we need to do.
    STILL no CBS here..  CH12 shows nothing.  I wonder if our "president" part of this.  It is common knowledge he dislikes CBS.  I am sick of it.
    Glad I am not flying anywhere now.  What a mess.  Sick of politics messing up our airports.  Poor workers.  Sick of politics period.
    Had a long video chat with JS.  Nice to see him.
    Photos today are ones I have taken of Lindsborg & maybe one from Salina.
