8/2026 - Saturday the 1st- MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Per

I have a cousin in Sweden name Per. Full name is Per Ola. I have met him. Nice guy.

Today went better than I expected. Last night I was reading email around 4am. And yikes!! I saw I worked this weekend. I quickly texted MH to open & close for me. Luckily answered right away. I had a hard time to sleep after that. I kept changing my alarm time. I got up much too late but I got me dressed & fed, the cats fed & Daisy fed. I got more food today so Daisy is ok now. And I got more V8 Energy drink for me., We all are ok now.

I am tired of trash in my yard. There is a guy who cleans up messes. I will gladly pay him to drive out here, Might have to call him this week & see what he says. Makes my stress so bad.

Work was good. Had a long time artist friend come in to work.. She is now 92. She lived in a nice house here for many years. Her house was where my great great grandmother lived &. my great grand mother lived there at the same time. She gave me a room by room & floor by floor tour once. Only time I ever got in there like that. Her name is Mary Erickson. Great artist. Got to know her & her husband quite well. Such nice people,

This week we vote. And I have an xray on the same day. Tired. of being busy, Need some days off, Not this week, Think the next week dr, appointmet in Hutch

Had our yearly old car show today. I borrowed on grouping of photos from a friend to share here. I never go. Especially when I have trouble walking.

Not too warm today. Nice out. Work was busy. Lots of people in & out. Kept me awake. Had 2 fun people that came in. No rain in the next couple of days. There are a couple of days that are maybes.

5/2026 - Monday the 18th - MY JOURNEY

Today's Name Day: Amir , Erik

I had a cousin in Sweden named Erik. I got to meet him. Spent lots of time with him. And family, Awesome guy. Had a couple of men in town named Erik. Had a couple in school with me.

Today was not a good day. Little sleep last night thanks to storms & rain. Still in pain. Had an appointment but cancelled it until thursday.

Today was a bad weather day. We were in a severe storm warnings & tornados. I was almost in a panic. I slowly walked to my shelter to make sure there was nothing in there that should not be. I barely made it there. Even with my cane it was scary. In an emergency I would never make it. I would end up laying in the weeds. Decided the cats would have to stay in the house. But maybe I could grab my kitten. I cried & was in terror. No one cares.

Our weather turned out better than I could have dreamt. No high winds. No hail. No tornadoes. Had some wind & rain. Lucky. I should sleep good tonight.

My kitten lets me pick her up all I want & she purrs & does not struggle to get away from. me. I saw a different cat on the porch eating. Probably the dark grey one I have seen before. He ran to fast so I never saw him good.

Pretty much ignored by most. Extra short short text from MM after I wrote to him, Always hear from JL. Love her lettlers. KN was here to check my tornado shelter. Need my yard mowed but he is too busy. I could walk better with no tall weeds.

Stupid mail person put a pile of mail on my trash bin. None of it was heavy. It all blew to the ground I had to walk around my trash bins to get it all. There was other safer places but he probably drove up & never got out of his car. Tossed it all on my trash out his window.

Many of the photos tonight are old & taken by me. Probably boring.
