Today's Name Day:  Hilding

Lindsborg had a well known man named Hilding.  He & his wife owne Swedish Crafts.  Sure miss that shop & them.  He was also a great artist.  Nice paintings.

    Had a good  day.  Went to bed last might at 10pm.  Stayed there until 10am.  Then PA called me & woke me up.  Good to talk to him.  Sure miss him.

    Had a good lunch with Cinder begging for lots of love.  She is soooo m.istreated!!!!  She thinks!!

    Had a nice afternoon nap.  Woke up with Cinder curled up against my back taking a bath.  Glad I am good for something.

    Got dressed, etc. for supper.  JR & I went to Jalisco's.  Quiet for a while when we first got there.  Had time to chat with MS & ATR.  They are cute.  I like them.  He has an easy smile for me often.  Nice.

    I had a sweet susprise while eating.  MM came & sat by me.  He was working & saw where I was.  Got nice hugs.  And he calmed my mood.  I have been so overwhelmed with depression.  I feel better. 

    We had ice cream for dessert. MA calls it nieve.  (snow). With chocolate & whipt cream.  Perfect.

    Then they got busy.  Time to go home.  Olympic time for me.  I am going to miss them when it is next week.  😢 

    STILL no glucose sensors.  Why????  Getting irritated.  But nothing to do but wait.

    Photos are many that I took today & in the past.  Will be labeled.  Had cattle  that escaped.  KN was there herding them back in.  No llamas were there.

                                        

First photos are the snow from last night & runaway cattle.

These next ones are old photos of town.

This is the Red Barn Museum.

10/2025 - Martes the 07th - MY JOURNEY

 

I love this graphic.  Kinds of sums of this time in the year & all the holidays coming up.  Hallo is Halloween.  Thanks is Thanksgiving.  Mas is Christmas.  I really do not get to celebrate any of them.  No family to be with & cannot be in JR's office anymore.  Grumpy owner of the building.  😕

Today's Name Day:  Birgitta, Britta

Know both Birgittas & Brittas.  All in Sweden.  Love these names.

    Had a lonely but ok day.  Heard from MM, CW, JL, & CF.  Not too often.  

    MM & I have set a lunch date.  He is now working for the Sale BARn also.  They have only 1 bartender in their staff.  So he is getting really busy.  But that is ok.  Hope he gets good tips from there.  And he can teach more of the help to create bar drinks.

    I did get a call to see if I could just sit in the Red Barn on Hyllningsfest.  I hated to but I turned it down.  I do not want to be in town that weekend at all.  Had a bad experience behind the SVAFC 2 years ago so home is better.  Feel guilty saying no.  Any other time would be no problem.

    I had a doctor appointment in Wichita this week that I rescheduled.  Just not feeling over my accident.  Better but not normal. 

    Today was odd.  I have sneezed too many times to count!  Allergies??? Cold???  Scares whatever cat is closest to me.  I tried to warn Cinder sitting on my lap.  Her 2nd language of English is really good.  She left before my sneezing fit!!

    We had some rain overnite & this morning.  Got 0.41" here.  That is it for a while.  It is so nice & chilly but the weatherman is giddy over 80s to almost 90s this weekend.  Ick.  Far too warm for here in October.  But next week in the 60 - 70s again.  And chances for rain.  Much better.  Takes the giddiness out of him!!!

    I got my new purse today.  Same style as my old one but larger & everthing fits.  With room to spare.  Nice.  Also found glucose  in individual servings packages.  Small bags to take when needed instead of thick tablets.  See how  they work out.

    No nap today.  Hope I sleep good overnight then.

    Took several bags of trash out to the bins today & yesterday.  Just need all my boxes moved away from here.  Either after a rain or when wheat is sowed.

    The grocery store has a meal of Sloppy Joe beef & buns to buy.  Two containers of beef & 4 buns.  Very tasty.  Need to use more beef but I can use it on other bread too.  Surely healthier  than lunch meat.  And the cost is quite cheap.

    Fotos are a seasonal mix.

Love this photo.  So sweet!!!

This is a real person all made. up.

Swedish prayer.  I prefer to sing it.  Know it by heart.

No chance for me to fall in love again.  Ever.

Spooks in Jalisco's.  Put them out every year.

Hard to get when I am alone too often.

Old, old Hyllningsfest float foto.  Like it.  You can see our old movie theatre called the Plaza.  Now has businesses in it.
