12/2023 Lördag the 16th -- Wandering & Capturing Moments

 


National Ugly Sweater Day

Today's Name Day is Assar


    Not the best of days but ended sort of better.   Waited all day yesterday for my credit card company to call to help me fix my card app.   I got nada.   Finally this afternoon my patience died.   I called them.   The first helper did nothing for me,   Not sure she had a clue what I tried to tell her.   Called a second time.   This helper actually got it.   She transfered me to the right department.   And gave me their phone number.   I got a guy who knew his stuff.   He had me do a couple of things & it finally worked!!!   Miracle!!!  He instructed me to wait a while then delete then entire program & reload it,   I almost needed a shot of tequila.   I was terrified I would have to call him back,   But it loaded right up with no problem.   He assured me that my bank, etc. was not the problem but something in the software.   Thank you so much Leonard!!!
    Nico was even good while I was on the phone,   That is a major shock!!   And a blessing.   Last night he seemed different.   Really worried me.   But today he was just Nico.   I think his time is short.   And I am terrified.   But I will have to face that alone.   Trust me.   I will be extra invisible at that time.
    I had some Amazon supplies on the porch so I took Nico out while I opened boxes, sorted things, organized boxes.   It was chilly out but not too bad.   We both needed some fresh air.
    I pretty much cancelled today.   I just did not have it in me to go to town & eat.   I am out of some food things here but I won't starve.   Nico & I shared pasta.   Pretty good.
    Early this afternoon I watched Home Alone 1.   I love that movie.   And I love when the spider is on the one bad guy!!!   I got the giggles!!!   Needed to giggle!
    A small series of bad things happened tonight & I ended up having a major meltdown.   Losing Nico is really getting to me.   And Christmas is not helping.   In one month I lost my best friend, my mom, & my husband.   All with no support group or family support.   
At least they were not all in the same year!!!   Christmas & family ended for me when Mom died.   I have tried to do cards but just cannot handle the stress.   I used to make all my own cards.   No more!!   I thought I had family support when Willie died but how wrong I was.   What a shock to me.   How did I miss their real feelings?
    I taped the daytime Emmy awards show.   So much better than watch that way.   I can fast forward through the people & shows I do not care about,   Then I watch the commercials.   It usually seems the awards are rather one sided,   But the best actor & actress were from my show!!   That never happens.
    I am still pouting about never getting snow here.   We cannot even get normal winter weather.   I wrote on FB about my feelings.   Those summer loving people always get the weather they want.   It is almost always hot, sunny, no rain.   But I rarely get what I enjoy.   And I am not alone.   I belong to a group that dislikes summer.   They give lots of support to each other.
    Have too many photos on my phone so have some sorted & deleted.   THAT makes me stressed.,
    Photos are the seasonal ones again.

 World Refugee Day



    Difficult night last night.  I wrote to JS & SM telling them I am not able to be at their wedding.  The most difficult I have ever written.  I am scared to go alone.  I am not well enough.  And there is no one who would be able to go with me.  Or anyone who would want to go with me.  Really bad night.  SM wrote to me last night & JS wrote to me this morning.  There is nothing that can make me feel better.  I am tired & I am done.  No where to turn.
    Weather is hot again.  Got up to 94F today.  I stayed in all I could.  Late afternoon I sat out with Nico.  Nice strong wind.  Some boxes blew off the porch so I gathered them up until I have less pain.
    Severe weather is forecast either tonight or early morning tomorrow.  And again on friday.  It could wait until after harvest.  But it never does.  They forecast 10 days of no rain.  Just hot.  That sure changed quick.  Next week they forecast many days of 100 or higher.
    Harvest started again yesterday.  Hope it is going well & no breakdowns.  Seems like Willie was never so lucky!!
    Cinder has been in all day.  Finally just woke up.  Greeted me & is now hanging around Nico.  Probably go out soon.  Then will try to get her in if it storms.
    Suppertime.  Hate it.  Do not want to cook & nothing I have sounds good.  Should get ambitious & drive to town to get something..  No energy.
    Photos are a mix that I took & edited in Lightroom.  Having fun with it.  I did not take the city in the snowy mountains but edited it so I signed it.

28 april, 2023 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    No sleep last night.  In my mind I was not in a good place.  Better today.  I had no idea that being alone at the twilight of my life would be so hard.  Sooooo hard.  And so alone.  Where is my support group?

    This is a sad weekend for me.  The little girl who called me Grandma for years is getting married.  I was never even told she was engaged.  I have not seen her in years & she lives here.  I used to ask her to go out to eat, but she had no time.  At least not for me.  I have not been included in anything.  So I am not going.  I have to be careful of what I eat, I do not know anyone there or who she is marrying.  I cannot walk far or stand for long times.  Just easier to stay home.  And no one will miss me at all.  But I am still hurt & upset.  Oh well.  Only my problem.  No one to give me support as usual.

    I did sleep this afternoon.  Helped how I feel.  And I managed not to cry anymore.

    Love the weather.  Very light rain all night.  Cloudy & cool.  My kind of weather.  If only it would last.  Not in Kansas.  Heat & humidity will arrive soon I am sure.

    JR & I were going to eat supper at Crown & Rye.  What a joke!!  There was not a parking spot anywhere near them.  I forgot tomorrow is college graduation!!  Tons of people in town.  We ate at China instead.  Awesome Chinese food.  I have enough left for a good meal tomorrow noon.  Soooo good.  I love Sweet & Sour Chicken & egg drop soup.  Need to eat there more often.

    China is now sold.  The owners are retiring but I heard they have it sold.  And the new owners will have a buffet.  Great!  Easy to run in for a quick noon meal.  Healthy & fresh made food.  No leftovers for days in there.  Safe food to eat.

    All 3 kids in all day.  I think they got along ok  Pretty sure Nico & Cinder were sleeping under my bed.  Kisse had control of the top of the bed.  She was enjoying the blanket by the window.

    Photos are some I took, some I did not but I like them.  I have started adding a winter photo everyday because I like them.

03 april, 2023 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    Had a quiet day.  Talked to no one.  Sat outside twice.  The first time was for a very long time with the fur kids.

    Today was the day to gather trash & haul out.  How exciting.  But all that had been gathered & all newly gathered is out in the trash bins.  That was all the energy I had.

    Sitting out there were many cows near & little ones.  It is so fun to watch the little calves run & play.

    Called about my AC.  They will be here thursday afternoon.  I am busy all week until then.  I will survive one hot day & then it cools off.

    Moisture coming from California again but like the other day it goes over us & to Missouri & south.  Will worry about JS again.  The other day there were 80 tornados total where the weather went.  Scary.

    Nico ruined my evening.  He refuses to mind & then gets upset with me & attacks.  No idea what to do about him.  No fun.

    Photos are some that I took in the past.

No blog today. The day ended horrible.  I cannot deal.  No where to turn.  Only one way to describe this year. Annus Horriblis.


Only photos of animals.
