6/2026 - Thursday the 11th - MY JOURNEY

 

I stayed in Järvsö with family when I was in Sweden.  Awesome area.  A different family took me over the wonderful bridge & a short tour of Danmark.

Today's Name Day:  Bertil , Berthold

I had one relative with the first name of Bertil.  He passed away in the last couple of years.  And another relative had a middle name of Berthold.  A generation ago or so.  Good Swedish names.

    Today turned out to be a good day.  Last night was an ok night.  Kisse slept with me for several hours.  Cinder was nearby.  And would walk over to check on me often.

    Best thing about last night was we got no storms.  Two near counties had bad weather & a county east of Salina had bad weather.  Sorry for them.  Thrilled for us.

    Daisy had no where to hide.  I went out to feed her at bed time & there was another cat up eating.  It ran away.  I know which one it is.  Attractive cat.  Think maybe a female but not sure.

    Ate lunch at the Öl Stuga today.  There was to be 3 of us but one did not make it.  We had a really nice waiter.  I know no one there anymore.

    After lunch I had time to kill.  Picked up groceries at 3pm.  What awesome foods I ordered.  Great stuff I had not seen in a year or so.  Good I order my own. And get what I like.  And get money back on my credit card instead of losing money all the time.  Supper will be extra good.  Buying mac & cheese that is not a tv dinner is 100% better.  I tasted it when I got home.  Great taste & cold not hot.

    Lindsborg was full of huge bunches of tree limbs wherever I drove.  The Old Mill had some minor damage on the mill itself that is being fixed.  We were lucky.  When everyone has electricity again the city will start picking up tree limbs if you have them piled by the curb.

    I took a very short nap.  While napping a friend sent out a notice to watch CH12 6pm news.  I made sure I did.  He was interviewed by the news staff at the Salina River Festival.  Cool!!!  He is performing there on stage.  Wish I was there.  Have to see him in town when he sings.  Nice guy!! Talented!  Working so hard to succeed.

    My wifi got messed up again.  I wonder if my electricity flickered or something.  And a note from Verizon that they are updating software.  So it is flackey again.

    Sorry for a few drawings that no one likes.  I apologise.

I am guilty of this.  Trying to please everyone but me.

6/2026 - Tuesday the 2nd - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Rutger , Roger

I remember a well known local trumpet player named Roger.  What awesome talent.  A friend of mine her husband was Roger as is her son who is also a trumpet player.  I am sure there are other Rogers in town.

    Today was a pretty good day.  Slept pretty good.  Pain kept increasing.  Bad now.  Had one short text from MM & a small email from JL.  Everyone else pretty quiet.

    Had awesome looking radar here last night.  What a joke.  Got around 0.11"  What a joke.  Still great looking radar this morning.  Why bother to look?

    Our temperatures stayed cooler today.  Nice cool breeze when I fed Daisy.  But it warmed up during my nap.  Hot & humid again.  Usch.

    National news is all bad again.  Why do I have it on??  But it is not CBS.  Never again.

    I have sunglasses that fit over my regular glasses.  They broke.  I ordered new ones.  I thought they were arriving tomorrow but I was wrong.  Came today.  On sunny days I really need a pair.  Take them off driving in town usually.  My eyes are very sensitive.

    I took a nice nap.  Not only increasing pain but my tiredness is bad.

    Work tomorrow.  Be nice to see everyone & not be home alone.

    A lot of my photos today are ones I have taken.  Nothing special.

Love this one.  Cool.

Cinder laying in front of some art I created.  It has since been put away.  Not all of us can respect art!!!  

Napping Nico.  Miss him.

Love this one!!! Makes me laugh!!

All of the photos like this one I have taken.  There is a hidden spot in an alley they bloom in.  Usually gorgeous every year.
