Today's Name Day:  Johanna

Went to school with a Johanna.  Her dad was a professor at the college.  Last time I saw her was our 50th class reunion.  She died shortly after that of cancer.

    Today is just a day like any other.  Had an email from JL.  Losing a friend who is moving away.  Sad.  Hate to lose someone I really like.  But it has to be. 

    A little cooler today.  Temp is 96F now.  Not close to 100F.  Still feels miserable out.  Nice breeze.

    Tried to take a nap but only rested.  Gave up & showered & shampooed.  Want to look good for the new doctor tomorrow.  I do not want to eat too early.  But still need lunch after I see him.  See how I am feeling after lunch.  Today my one wrist is killing me.  Worse tomorrow???  And I need to see MM sometime.  And need to stop in to see my insurance people.  Raised my payment at least $1000.  Good lord!!!  Wonder if it can be changed to less??  How can I afford that??  More & more stress.  But others expect lots from me.  But I get little back.

    And my stress messing my life up!  I hate nights when I turn my lights off & my blind symptoms take over.  I hate when I cannot see my bedroom door or the hallway.  And parts of my room disappear.  Oh, well..  I think no one cares about it all.  Still no support group.

    Will end this and work on spanish.  Not much energy for that.

7/2026 - Tuesday the 14h- MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day:  Folke, 

Kronprinsessan Victorias födelsedag

(Crown Princess Victoria's birthday of Sweden)

    Today started very stressful.. Terrified of eye doctor appointment & what he could find wrong with me.  I had learned a few diseases that it could be bothering my eyes.  I get blind in the dark in bed.

    Well, it was not what Dr thought it might be.  But he double checked & scanned my eyeballs.  All is well. But he does know what is causing my blindness.  Stress.  I guess good to know but what to do.  Not my 2 jobs.  I knew they are not stressful.  I am happy at both of them.  I cannot fix the stress.  FML.

    I stopped at Arby's to get supper.  Very good.

    I was so upset today I forgot a meeting tonight.  Called LL to give her my message of not being there.

    Saw 91F today.  TV weather says we could be 100F on sunday.  I hate summer.  At least there is no humidity.  Helps.  Tried to sit out last night.  Too many bugs.  No breeze tonight,  I want to be with Daisy.  Got a few photos last night.  She sure loves me,  Wish I could bring her in.  But do not trust my older cats.

    Now to relax.  And watch my soaps.  Saw a little of FIFA.  Enough to know who won.

    Called KN.  Nice visit.  Saw him drive through my yard.  Too tired to get up & go outside.

Best friend John Bergers.  Sure miss him.  His birthday is on Bastille Day.  He was even in Paris one year for his birthday.  And he was positive the fireworks & music were just for him!!!  I bet he is there this year also!

Some birthday photos of Atlas & his dad.

Hospital buddies.  Danny, me, Peter.  Those were fun times.  Played games, cocktails, dancing,   Fun times.
