02/2026 - Onsdag den 17:e - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:   Freda, Fritiof
There was a Freda a bit older than me in school.  And a Fredolf from Falun.

    An ok day.  Not quite enough sleep.  Took my pill too late.  Hard to sleep again.
    Today was a work at the Old Mill.  Finished the photos I was on.  In the Smolan box was a hand written "book" of short stories & cookie recipes by kids.  Cute.  Started making copies of it. I hope that a few in the future will enjoy it!!  The first couple of names I did not know.  Then the names were familiar to me.  Fun!!
    Lots of talk about pancakes today.  I would have killed for a couple of pancakes, but not in Lindsborg.  Have none anywhere.  Used to be able to get Swedish pancakes but no more.  That is so sad.  What a poor Swedish town we are.
    Supper was at Jalisco's.  I told MA I almost called him to make me pancakes.  He said he would have made some for me.  Nice to hear but I doubt.
    I will no longer say who ignores me.  Just assume they all do.  Email from JL.  Grateful for her.  Always hear fron N&C first thing of the day &. last thing of the day.  Did get photos from LP in Brazil at the Carnival,  Lucky him.
    Weather was ok.  Not strong winds here.  Good.  Wonder what the forecast is.  Same or changed.
    The weather is playing havoc with my body.  There is no place I do not hurt.  And movement is awful.  Hands & feet & all in between.  FML.  Chronic pain is not fun.  I try not to say anything to anyone.  And when I do I just get ignored.  Happened tonight.  Treated like all is well.  Again.  FML.
    I have learned that dozens of birthdays for people I do not know or will never know are getting old.  Started ignoring or only a very simple greeting.  Unless the family is super important to me I just ignore.  Too much.  And the same for all the huge family/friend get togethers.  Those hurt.  I have no one like that to be part of.  Walk on by.  Just ignore.
    Cold is coming just do not know when.  And maybe a bit of rain.  For me a very small bit.
    No cattle today or llamas.  Dang.  Maybe tomorrow.
    Photos are gnomes or gnome like drawings.



Love this one

















Cute!!



You always leave food out for the gnomes.

01/2026 - Tisdag the 20th - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Fabian, Sebastian 
Fabian is one of my fave singers.  Saw him live once.  Friends in Sweden had a dog named Fabian.

    Today was a "me" day.  I took care of only me.  Cinder had a "cinder" day by staying close.  Yesterday was her day.  She laid on me all afternoon & all evening.

    The weather was warm today.  Highs in the 50s.  Ends today.  Scary weather forecast.  Turning super cold & snow starts on friday.  From Salina on south is the highest amount of snow.  I called the girl I am working at the gallery for & she was clueless.  No clue the weather is turning bad.  I told her if it is bad I might not be able to make it to work.  She is looking for someone in town.  The one weatherman said snow could be quite deep.  I refuse to drive in very deep snow.  The high on saturday is only 9F.  I hate to drive when it is that cold.  Live alone so who will know if I get home or not.  People are too busy to keep track of me.  This I know.  Either too busy or don't care.  I do not want MH to get stuck working for me although he told me to stay home if I need to.  Hope she finds someone for me.
    I slept late then took a nice warm shower & shampoo.  Relaxing.  Hair looks & feels better.  Applied lots of nice lotion.  My dry Sjögren's skin is a mess.
    I managed a short nap.  Cinder laid with me a short time then back to her nest on top of my desk.  Kisse was under my bed.  That is her new fave place.
    People are quiet today.  One text from MM.  A couple of emails from JL.  Got a text from someone I texted first.  Everyone else is ignoring me.  I am turning into an introvert but it is not by choice.  What choice when I get ignored most of the time.
    Living room is chilly.  Have my room heater on.  Should help.
    Time for supper.  My sugar had just dropped to a low reading.  Glucose tabs helped.  No appetite.  Too lazy to cook
    Photos are a mix.  Some winter stuff & some gnome photos,



This owl is telling a ghost story.  That is why a creepy shadow,




Love this one!!!






Sweet!














Winter AI me & a snowman.
