Good friend already wished me Happy Halloween so I think this photo is ok.  One of my faves.

Today's Name Day:  Louise, Lovisa

I have known one Louise.  Couple of years older than me & sort of a neighbour.  I see her once in a while & friends with family of hers.

    A better day, sort of, today.  RA & depression have ruled my life for a few days.  Sorry I could not be here.

    Our weather is beyond wonderful!!  Our low was 60F.  High hit 70F before supper tonight.  Heaven.  At last!!

    I have done nothing but sleep for 2 days.  Hard to stay awake.  Odd.  Maybe fighting getting sick.  I was exposed to someone with a cold.

    I am sure the weather is nice outside but I really did not care.  I had mail to sort outside & carry in. Some heavy things.  I do not feel better.  Just more pain.

    I am glad that MM got a weekend away with a friend.  Fun to see him looking happy & enjoying life.  I am glad for him.  Starting work this weekend.  The huge boot he is wearing on his broken ankle but had has permission to wear a smaller brace.  Got to feel better.

    Had rain last night.  Got 0.33".  Nice.  More on the way on Wednesday.  No lightning or thunder or wind.

    My spanish got a bit easier.  Nice but that won't last.  Never does.

    Saw someone riding a small vehicle in my pasture.  They never saw me.  And there are no cattle in the pasture so who knows what was going on..

    Photos are a mix.  Too tired to sort them tonight.

This is a princess tårta cake. A traditional birthday cake in Sweden.

My babies --- Kisse & Nico.

Love being there, love the statue & park, love the song.

National Make A Dog’s Day

Today is a reminder to animal lovers everywhere to adopt a pet instead of buying a new one. In fact, we encourage everyone to visit a shelter to see why adopting a four-legged friend will make the world a better place.

I wish Nico was here so I could spoil him.  💔  Miss him daily. 

Today's Name Day: Marika, Marita

    Just not a good day.  I got no sleep at all overnight.

My mind was working overtime.  How to stop that?  Drives me crazy.  I did not have pain but I was achy all over.  Cinder reclaimed her chair.  Kisse either laid on my bed or a spot she likes near by.

    I had a nap that did not go well.  I could not get comfy.  I woke up after one hour, then after 2 hours,  gave up after 3 hours.  Will take a pill tonight so I can work tomorrow.

    I made it to the mail box late this afternoon.  Missed yesterday's mail & today's.  If there is too much they will crush it in tightly.  If something breaks or tears, who cares.  The mail carriers certainly don't.  We used to have the nicest mail men.  Those days are over.

    We had rain several times last evening.  All totaled we had 0.37"  More than usual.  Like to see a couple of inches.

    I saw some pills that are supposed to help arthritis pain.  Sort of health food products.  Nothing bad in them.  I ordered them & a pain cream made of the same stuff.   Pills I will try on thursday.  But I put on the cream.  I think I feel better.  That is ok.  As many pain creams that I have I could open my own pharmacy!!!  😛

    Photos today are all black & white ones.

                            

I want this weather.  Now.

My neighbour's barn.  My fave.

Worldwide Candle Lighting Day

Today's Name Day is Daniel

    An OK day until tonight.   Nico is doing his usual stuff.   He goes all over the house looking for something to get into.   And making a mess.   And not listening to anything I say,   Makes me soooo stressed.

    Got really cold again last night.   Today was very warm,

    I got all my trash bags in the trash bins.   Very few boxes went there too..   Glad it is all gone in the morning,   

    It was so warm this afternoon I sat outside with Nico & Cinder,   Nice to watch them love being together,   I even managed not to cry.   Nico just makes me super stressed as he is so sick.   What will I do without him here?

    I had laundry to catch up with.   Just a small load left.   Will do it when this load has dried,   Would be nice to have a clothes line outside.   Wanted one for years but no one would put one up,   I will do without rather than ask someone & have them refuse.

    I have an earache.   Actually I have 2 earaches,   Driving me crazy.   No idea why they both hurt,   And itch.   I have been applying pain cream around my ear, but not in.   That would make it so much worse.   Maybe it is my usual fluid on the ear.   Thanks to the cooler weather & the heater on often, my normally dry skin is worse.   I have an awesome lotion that helps for a short time.   Got it on Etsy but who makes it is no longer there.   Will try some goat milk lotion,   Hope that helps,

    Cooler weather midweek with rain.   Won't be cold enough to snow,   Wish we could have normal December weather.

    Spent some time sorting photos on my phone,   They are a mess!

    My depression is just getting worse.   Retail therapy seems to help!!   A couple of frivolous things but most needed,

    Photos are Christmas, snow, etc.   Need to go to town to take photos of the lights,
