Oh the dreams of fools.....




Today's Name Day:  Botvid, Seved

    Just a day of rest.  No plans.  But got an email from someone to work an entire weekend at the SVAFC.  I am  free that weekend.  Very cool.
    I slept extra good last night.  No idea why.  But I liked it.  Still had a good nap too.
    I swear after lunch I heard a car door outside shut.  Not long after I got a notice  that some mail had been delivered.  Went out just now to bring it in.  There is nothing anywhere.  What did I hear then???  No reason for KN to be here.  Odd.
    There was no Cinder this morning.  I got up & had the TV on.  I fixed my lunch.  No Cinder.  I got worried.  I called her several times.  Still no Cinder.  Kisse was all over me.  Pretty soon she showed up.  She has a sleeping nest where there is sunshine.  Probaby all warm & cozy.  Been around ever since.
    Have started drinking more tea.  I have some cold brew  tea bags.  Brew in a short time.  And very good.  Have one that is berry flavored.  I remember one I got in Sweden that was I think forest berries.  It was better but mine is ok.
    Got an email from JL.  And several texts from MM.  He as to move stuff around in his house.  Maybe showing it tomorrow.  And the floor replacement guys.  No bueno.
    Rest of the day was quiet.  As most of my alone time is.
    Hot & humid today.  I saw 97F here.  Last night was rather cool.  Good for sleep.
    Photos are drawings & several flowers.

















Wishing......

National Drink Wine Day


Today's Name Day: Frida, Fritiof


    I cannot write a blog today.  Nothing to say.  Nothing to report.  Just quiet & alone again.  Sorry.  Hope tomorrow is better.

    Photos are all old old photos.

Go Caroling Day

Today's Name Day is Israel


    Today was a work day.   Good to be back.   My computer & scanner were running slower than usual.   Gave me & them lots of time to chat.   I love being there.   LL was in a meeting & brought us back White Peacock drinks. 
    The photos I am working on are of the Swedish Pavillon.   Right now they are boring.   Kind of clueless what they are about.   And some are poor quality.   Hope they get better.  I have loved most I have worked with.
    JR & I had supper at Jalisco's.   They got really busy.   And I got a surprise invitation to supper this weekend.   A nice surprise.   I know many there but not all.   Meeting new people is good
    Dessert was ice cream again.   I am addicted.   Good way to end the day.  They have a new thing to order called The Kitchen Sink.   A huge dish --- like a pie pan ---- full of ice cream.   A guy came in to order it & he said I could take a photo of it.  Will share a photo!!!   It is for him & his wife.   Anniversary!
                                

    Photos today are the same for the time of year.

National Hard Candy Day 

Today's Name Day is Isak

    Had a really good day.   Other than Nico keeping me up often during the night.   But no problem.   Whatever he wants.    
    I met Mikael for lunch at Jalisco's.   Good to spend time with him & chat.   I need to be with people more than staying home alone.   Jalisco's was super busy.   When I got there it was quiet & Miguel & I had a chance to visit a bit.   Later we could barely say hi!!!   That is good though.
     Came home & took a nap.   The minute my head hit the pillow I was out.   Nice nap.
    Picked JR up at 5 & we were off to Salina.   Had supper at Arby's.   Had my fave ---- beef sandwich & an apple turnover.   Perfect.   Then we drove around to look at Christmas lights.   They were all so pretty.   But my favorite house had not one light.   Did they sell their house?   Are they gone for the holidays?   Their house is HUGE.   Probably 3 stories.   Looked foreboding all dark.  There are a couple of places I like to go.   Hit them all.   I did not take one photo.  Too much traffic.   But I enjoyed seeing them all.   I need to just take some photos in Lindsborg.  This week sometime.
    Nico must not feel good tonight,   I fed him before eating my supper but he was not interested in a treat or anything when I got home.   Just water.   He is getting sicker.   Now he is napping.   What a worry.   My stress gets worse every day.   I don't want to lose my baby puppy.   We have been together for over 9 years.
    Photos today are mostly gnomes.   There is one I created tonight.

International Migrants Day

December 18 marks International Migrants Day, a day dedicated to recognizing the rights and contributions of migrants around the world. This day was established by the United Nations in 2000 as an opportunity to celebrate and honor the millions of people who have been forced to leave their homes in search of a better life. It is also a time to recognize the courage and resilience of those individuals who are striving for a better future for themselves and their families. So join us on December 18th in celebrating International Migrants Day!


Today's Name Day is Abraham


    My day started very stressful.   I had at least a dozen emails with my credit card not working.   Not ready to be back on the phone.   Again!   Cancelled my day.
    Called Venmo again.   But not my app or Venmo.   They had me call the bank they use.   Easy fix..   I made an error & they shut down my card.   Nice.   Will be reset in a couple of days.   Time will tell.   I saved their phone number.   I spent all morning changing my card numbers on places Venmo was on.   So then the emails stopped.
    Rescheduled lunch for another day.   Good & also planning to look at Christmas lights soon.   I may not take a photo & just let JR take all he wants.
    Nico & I took a nap together on the sofa.   We snuggle close to each other.   These memories will be special in the future.   I was deleting dog food & treats on Amazon,   Made me sad.   He surely will not be here in January.
    It was cold last night but ok today.   High winds tomorrow.   Storms on the weekend & Christmas.   No snow here.   Maybe a little in western Kansas.   But rain is good,   We need the moisture.  
    The tv network that Saturday Night Live is on did work Saturday night.   I saw bits & pieces today.   The weekend news was the best!!!
    I have not seen the Willie Nelson birthday celebration.  Will watch it this week sometime.   The concert of his I saw was the best.   Love him.
    Photos are all collages today.   Some I put together, some are from the internet.
