11/2025 - Jueves the 20th - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:    Marina, Pontus

    Had a quiet day.  Little communication with anyone.  I spent the day resting in my jammies!!  Not bad.
    Really feeling left out today.  Everyone at the Mill is gone tomorrow.  That means LL cannot eat out with me.  Oh well.  I could eat out alone but will just eat at home.  Easier.
    And all the holiday plans of everyone.  I sort of know what dinner I will to the office on Thanksgiving.
    Not hungry for supper.  Had popcorn.  And a chocolate piece of candy.
    My coverup for work is here.  Bring it to work tomorrow.  Hope it keeps me warm.
    Good tv night.  Enjoying it.  Always good.  Next week all reruns.
    Rain is near me.  All the way from California.  And more coming from there also.  Good.  Maybe I will get enough rain to have a flooded driveway.  I can be lazy then.  😇
    Photos are mostly seasonal drawings.  Love them.

Today's Name Day:  Orvar

    Today was a very nice day.  Met my thursday friends for lunch.  Only 3 of us today.  We ate at the Öl Stuga.  I got there early so we got a table in the main room.
    MM was supposed to be working but he works tonight.  Good friend CW was working & was our waiter.  I got a nice hello hug & a sweet goodbye hug.  Glad we are friends.
    It was raining all night & when I drove to town my driveway was under water.  Fairly deep.  Sort of had second thoughts but it was ok.  Water had flowed down the drive from my yard & the creek was flowing over it.  When I got home it was deeper.  I could see the water flowing over from the creek.  I went slow & no problem.  In the last 2 days I have had over 2 inches of rain.  Amazing.  More forecast.
    My one lunch friend's husband has a printer that prints plastic things.  He gathered some of his smaller toys to give to me for my great grandsons.  Hope they visit soon!!!  They will have fun.
    I got home to take a nap but I got very little sleep.  Beeping woke me up.  Thought it was my glucose monitor but was not.  Thought it was my phone. Nope.  It was my weaether radio.  Poor radio signal.  Then I had to reset the time.  So much for sleep.  Cinder was all cuddly but we both gave up.
    I fueled my car.  Glad I remembered.  I was on fumes!!!  Scary!!!  Years ago I actually ran completely ran out.  Many years ago.  But I have yet to year the end of it.  Sheesh.  Gets tiring hearing about my failures.
    My memories in FB today brought up a photo of my son's daughter.  I can no longer see his kids or communicate with them..  Painful.  I only protected my life from being taken advantage & losing my only source of income but I am the one suffering.  And the kids.  Not fair to me or them.  But no one cares.  Karma will take care of it.  Probably has already started from what I have heard.
    Photos are from today & autumn photos.  Monday is the first day of Autumn.  Finally!!!!  Begone summer & humidity & bugs!!!

Öl Stuga bar & CW

My rum & coke



My driveway midafternoon.  You can see the motion of the flowing water.

I have no idea about this tractor but it sits on a pad surrounded by large rocks.  I finally got a photo of it.  Very cool!








Love the cat in the back!!!

09/2025 - Miércoles the 03rd- MY JOURNEY





Today's Name Day:  Anita, Annette, Tord, Turid
My first daughter-in-law was Anita.  She was the best.  I miss her & think of her often.  Mom had a friend Annette.  Every card she sent to people had a tatted flower in it.  Lovely.


    I did not blog last night as I was too tired.  Had a board meeting at 6pm then a program.  I stayed for it and some treats afterward.  I do not fit in most of the time but a sweet lady sat with me.  Nice not to sit alone.  I enjoyed visiting with her.  Did not get home until 9pm.  I just did my spanish lesson. Then I was done!!  💤
    Today I did nothing.  Had rain late morning.  Had water over my driveway so somewhere west of me there was more rain than I had.  The little creek that goes through our pastures doesn't even have a name.  No idea where it starts or where it ends.  There is not a large culvert in my drive so the water backs up & floods my drive.  Does not happen very often.  Did not amount of much today but I was afraid to leave & have it rain more & then I would have trouble getting home.
    The weather is playing havoc with my back.  Sure gets old.
    Yesterday MM & I had lunch out.  And he had a couple of nice gifts from me from he trip to Manhattan.  He is the beset.  He worries about me. 
    A bit warmer today.  I rested.  Cinder was near me all afternoon.  She is a blessing.  Kisse stays near me also but she is not a cuddler.  Sometimes in bed she will sniggle.
    I use a stylus on my iphone.  I have two of them.  one won't charge anymore.  The other works but not properly.  Ordered a new one.  Hard to find one that I want.  They all now have a weird end.  Don't like them.
    No plans tomorrow.  Lunch out got cancelled & JR is too busy to eat with me.  A day at home.
    What a mess our country is.  Two shootings today.  One a conservative who supports no gun laws & is now dead.  The other kids in Colorado.  And most of our government refuses to talk about what to do.
    Photos are a mix of whatever I like.
