12/2025 - Martes the 09th - MY JOURNEY

 




Today's Name Day:  Anna
My middle name is Ann.  Sometimes I use the name Juliana.  Or Julie-Ann to make it more Swedish.  Family or friends in Sweden named Anna.

    Blogging early today.  Seems like the world is ignoring me.  Had an email or two & one text.  I am ignoring FB.  Not posting hardly anything.  Used to getting ignored.  Makes me sad though..
    Today is my grandfather's birthday.  He would have been 183 years old.  I called him Boppa & a few younger cousins might have too but only because of their mom.  Real name was Howard.  Most never called. used that name.
I remember him well.  Not a really loving grandpa.  But he did things for me my parents would not but they never told me.  Other relatives did when I was an adult.
    It is 63F now.  Too damn warm.  Have black flies in my bedroom.  Sick of them.  I must find a way to keep them out.  Not sure how.  I thought I had help with that but I now know it is not going to happen.  As usual I am left out & forgotten.  And no one cares or remembers.
    Will be colder tomorrow.  Stupid weather has me in pain.  I will tough it out tomorrow.  Skip supper if I have to.
    Cinder must be in the bedroom napping.  Kisse by the TV.  Cinder has curled up on me several times.  Need to check on the mail. too.
    Photos are seasonal.  Tried to pick unique ones.  Not sure anyone cares.  Or even reads my blog.  Being ignored does me no good.  Hard feelings for me.
  
Fun photo!!!














A fave photo.  Comes up yearly!!






This is a local man who makes a wonderful Santa.  His aunt made his costume.  He died within the last year,  Buried near Willie.  I talk to him also.  He was a distant relative of mine.  Fun guy!!!

08 december, 2023 Wandering & Capturing Moments


National Brownie Day

Name Day is Virginia

    All of today was pretty good until tonight.  The holidays plus my upcoming birthday just got to me.   Not sure why this year is different than any other year.   Wish I could just cancel every thing from now until mid January.   And lock the doors & stay home.   Hard to have no Christmas or birthday.   My best friend always made sure I was treated special for my birthday.   Now he is several states away.   I am invisible to all others.   Just makes me sad.   I never had a birthday party as a child except one rare one.   Too close to Christmas.   Same as an adult.
    I slept ok but I could not move in bed,   Horrible pain.   A cold front moved in & I felt it.   Better today.   I can almost walk ok.
    I managed a short nap.   With Nico.   So far he is quiet tonight.   So far.   Probably won't last.
      JR & I had supper at Jalisco's.   I had an horchata to drink.   And it was the best one ever.   Perfect.   Then for dessert.   Ice cream, of course.
    A while back the Old Mill Museum has a celebration & Indigo Moo'd created a special ice cream just for us.   Called Old Mill Mint.   OMG!!   They had it tonight!!   Just awesome.   Love it!!!
    Weather was ok.   No high winds today.  Will be windy tomorrow.   Chance of rain tonight now but I have not checked outside.   I am sure it is still dry.   Cooler tomorrow than today.   Cooler all next week.   Good.
    Traffic on interstate was awful today.   No idea why.   And there were many cars in town & appeared to be an event at the Sundstrom building.   Clueless as to what.
    More Christmas photos today.
