01/2026 - Lunes the 05th - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Hanna

My step grandma was Hannah.  I never thought of her as a grandmother.  Many of my younger cousins did.  I do remember that she made the best rice pudding.  Nice lady.

    Sort of an ok day.  My glucose sensor quit working last night.  I finally checked by sticking my finger.  They were no where close last night.  Today they are better but which one do I follow???  😧 

    Today is my birthday.  Just another day.  Nothing special.  No eating out offers.  Probably no cards in the mail.  If FB did not post it no one would remember.  Even JS has not remembered.   I have lost him. But he deserves a happy life.  I am not important.  Another friend & I have the same birthday.  He has never told me Happy Birthday even though I always send him a card.  Today he actually wished me a happy birthday.  Nice.  MM wished me a nice greeting early this morning.  Special of him.  My cousin in Denver called me around 10am.  Had a nice visit.  I sure miss her.  But she has been sick & cannot drive here & I am sick & cannot drive to Denver.  Life does not get better with age.  Especially with no family or support group of friends.  FML.

    I have trash to take out but the bins are full..  I have 2 more bags I think I can fit in.  Then I am done.

    I had planned on a trip to Salina but will wait until tomorrow.  Pick up my glasses & maybe see about fixing my phone.  Probably get a new one with max  storage.

    Watching a Dish scape on CH 198.  Gorgeous castle in the snow.  Photo of it at the end of photos.

    Change in our weather.  Warm with a cold front on thursday & maybe rain.  Then a stronger cold front on friday with rain or snow.  I can dream.  I do not believe them yet.  Refuse to get excited.

    Cats have deserted me.  Cinder has taken my bed over.  Cinder is in her bed.  They never heard me walk by to put clothes on.  If I fall asleep it will be on the sofa.  Let them sleep in peace.

    Saw KN drive through the yard checking on his bulls.  Could. have yelled at him but he is busy.  Did not bother him,

    Still sad about Nico.  That never goes away.  Just worse this weekend every year.

    Photos today are mostly snowy ones and/or drawings.

    Less achy today.  Always grateful for that.

Cinder & Nico all snuggled together for a nap.

Today's Name Day:  Teodor, Teodora

My grandpa was Ted Johnson.  I can still hear his laugh.  Greatest one ever!!  Wish he had lived closer.  Never grew up with any family support.  Always the one left out.  No one cared then & no cares now.  I only get used now.

Knew a neighbour or family friend or two named Theodore.

 

    Busy day for me.  Slept good.  Cold night but not the super high winds they forecast.  At least not at my house.  I kept the heat turned on but still sometimes felt chilly.

    Cinder turned off my tv.  Dang.  I had a few boxes I had neglected to throw outside.  Had lunch first.  Now I have a direct path to the tv.  And the tv works again.

    I am watching a rugby match in the Rugby Union Internationals, Game 2.  Teams are the New Zealand All Blacks & Scotland.  I have loved the All Blacks forever.  Could not find them on tv for a while glad they are back.  Close match.  Exciting!!  Best part is NZ doing the Haka pregame.  Love it.

Match just ended.  New Zealand won but it was close and really exciting.  Worth it missing supper to see it.

    Have trash to put in bins but only socks on.  Have to get shoes.  Cannot walk out in socks.  Two good sized sand burr plants by my trash.

    I am feeling good.  About time.  Hope it lasts.  Have had one email & one guilty photo post but god forbid any chatting.  I give up.  I try to tell how I feel & what my day is like.  Sort of one sided.

    MM is quiet today.  But he had a great day yesterday.  Lucky him.  I am always home alone too much.  I don't fit in anywhere to be included with anyone.

    I cleaned up my mouse & lap top.  Now it is too slick for my mouse!!!  A challenge.  Getting better though.

    A few months ago I lost all my insurance cards.  My last memory of them I was in the car.  I tore my car apart. More than once.  Cleaning today I found a purse I not used for a while.  So I went through it just to see what was in it.  OMG!!! There were all my insurance cards.  What a fine moment.  They are now safe in my new purse.  Whew!!!

    Supposed to be quite cold overnight.  Temp is falling slowly now.  Need to go find some shoes.

    Photos a large mix of things.

  

Probably not today.  Too few days like this.

What a fun memory!!  A drinking game played at wedding receptions but this was just in a bar.  Not strong alcohol taste.  Bartender is a dear friend.

Know this all too well.

😔😔

Favorite tv show as a child.  Especially Annette

 We were eating out in Wichita years ago.  A group of ladies were next to us.  The one handed me this bear.  Her name was Susannah so that is what I named the bear also.

I miss having a tree, sending cards, sharing gifts, & family.  No point for just me.  And too active cats!!  José was the only one who ever gave me a gift for Christmas/my birthday.

Sweet

Wish that was me.  How fun it would be.
