08/2025 - Domingo the 31st - JOURNEY

 

Glad August is over.



Today's Name Day:  Arvid, Vidar
I remember a funeral director years ago named Arvid.


    Had a good day.  Felt ok.  Good to be around people.  Slept good.  Rained.  Lindborg got almost an inch & a half.  I got .38".  Always get nothing compared to others around here.
    I made it to work at the SVAFC.  The daughter of our artist gave a talk about her father & his art.  She did great.  She even remembered my name.  Had a good size audience.  Then there were snacks in the back room.  I never went back there.  My blood sugar was too high so did not need to eat.  I sat alone with my thoughts.  Several women friends did come visit for a bit.  People I rarely see.  Nice.
    After everyone had left there was my boss, the artist's daughter & another friend.  My boss got a bottle of white wine so I had a glass of wine with her.  It tasted good.  I really do not have friends that we just go out for a cocktail or two & conversation.  I really enjoyed that time.  Very nice.
    Then JR & I had supper at Pizza Hut.  I had my sallad.  Very good.  Then went for ice cream for dessert.
    I got to meet the lady who worked for me yesterday.  She is super nice.  Glad we are friends.
    I am glad for two days off.  Will help me to feel better.
    Photos are a mix.

All Lindsborg's dala horses gathered in one place.



Today's Name Day:  Albert, Albertina
Known people by both these names.

    No blog again today.  Just not up to it.  I am some better but not totally ok.  Not posting about it.  If you know you know.  Most people don't care.
    Cool weather with sprinkles.  Good sleep weather.  Rested most of the day.  Spanish lessons going well.
    Had an email from a friend & MM has sent me many texts today.  He is at a funeral.  Sort of ignored by most others.
    Photos are collages.  Some local, some not.

08/2025 - Martes the 12th - JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Klara
I was friends with a Clara in school.  Mom had a friend named Clara.

    Today was an ok day.  RA ruled all night & part of today.  Better this afternoon.  Carried trash out.  And carried in new mail.  Still sort of ok.
    Friend RG called today & we have a lunch date.  Says he has tried calling me.  Have to see what number he has.  He has a new phone & mine is the same as I have always had.  Maybe he tried my home phone.  It does not work.
    My outside temp has quit working.  Needs batteries.
    My friend LL got home yesterday.  See her tomorrow.  Fun!!!
    Still cooler but not going to last.  Heat on the way.  Ick.
    I managed a partial nap but had a phone call.  I saw I had me down to work on sunday.  Could not remember for who.  Asked the boss.  THEN I remembered.  Giving up friday for sunday.  Don't always want a lot of days in a row.  And MH is always so understanding.  Bless him.
    I just called MM.  Had some questions & easier to talk than write.  Wish I could fix him.  Breaks my heart.
    Photos are a mix.  Some wintry ones.  Dreading the heat.
