11/2025 - Sábado the 08th - MY JOURNEY

 



Today's Name Day:  Vendela

    Had a good day.  Ate ok.  Blood sugar was pretty good.  On my sensor twice a day or so my sugar would suddenly drop to 69.  Wrong.  So I ate when I did not need to.  Good to know.
    Slept good overnight & had a short nap.
    JR & I ate supper at Jalisco's.  MA stayed home.  So it was LS, MS, & HT.  The restaurant filled up.  The girls were running to take care of people.  HT even took food out to tables also.  And they all had time to be nice to me.  MS even helped me stand to leave & pay.  Nice friends.
    Dessert was ice cream.  Made me sooo cold!!!  Warming up here at home now.  It is 47F now outside.
    On the way home I ran over a small skunk.  I feel so guilty.  Hope it did not suffer.  I hate to hurt anything.  My car has a slight smell to it.  Might stay home tomorrow.  Dang.  Or go through the car wash before eating out
    Talked to next to no one today.  That is ok.
    My soccer match I watched from London was fun.  Both teams scored 2 goals.  NBC has lots of soccer on.  I need to take time to watch.
    Found 2 old mice near my desk.  One did not work at all on my laptop.  But the newer little one is perfect.  The one my repair guys sold me I do not like.  Too large.  Will get rid of the useless old one.
    Cinder & Kisse have new sleeping places. I found Cinder's this morning.  Those 2 keep me on my toes!!
    Photos are a mix.  I have new ones already for tomorrow.  Good to stay ahead.
   



This was a faded picture I had.  No idea where it came from.  I ran it through an app twice to edit it.  Now cool looking.













For sure!!!



Nico in bed.  Missing him.

25 september, 2022 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    Today is a rerun of yesterday.  I am tired of being sick & missing out on things.  No way to cure my body.  I cancelled lunch today.  No need to almost crawl in.  No one needs to see that.

    I did write to someone who should have cared but it was ignored.  A sweet caring message would sure have made me feel a bit better.

    Nico napped this afternoon while I rested & read.  Nice to have him close.

    Great weather again.  It was in the 50s last night.  Cosy in bed even if not sleep shared the bed with me.  Today we hit 81F.  The highest temp in the next week is 84.  Great week!  No rain though.

    Sat outside for a long time with Nico & Cinder.  Really nice to be out.  No wind & no bugs.  They will be out tonight I am sure.

    I forgot to share.  A couple of nights ago around 3am I took Nico out.  Luckily I had his leash very short.  He went absolutely crazy.  There was a skunk not far away.  OMG!  We could have gotten sprayed.  Might be worse than walking poorly!  I thought he would never calm down.  And she was staring at us.  She finally ran away & Nico took care of business.  A truly awful moment.  She never came up last night.  Smart.  Go away!

    Yesterday in a nearby town was their annual Thunder in the Valley.  It is a motorcycle gathering.  We usually see a few in town here also.  Be fun to be there to see all the bikes.  Wichita had an air show for the first time in 4 years.  Would have been fun just to park near to watch the Thunderbirds fly.  Maybe next year.  I cannot walk so far to actually get in but anywhere close would be good.

    Photos are some of a coffee house I love.  And other things.  The church is in Järvsö Sverige.  It is special.  The pink flowers are called Lady's Thumb.

Sheltering in Place, Mood Of Silence, Day 224......

 Good but cold day!! A bit warmer than last night but stayed cold all day. No snow here yet. Wichita and KC have some snow. It misted here this noon.


JR and I had lunch at Jalisco. They were so quiet. Maybe the cold kept people home. We do have a new restaurant but it was not open when we got to town.


I took different meds at bedtime last  night. I took my anxiety pill, Tylenol, and pain cream. I actually  had a pain free night.  What a surprise. I can only take one anxiety pill a day. So I am trying a half pill twice a day. A little pain but better than usual. I can live with it. At least I walked more normal. I was ready to get my dad's walker to use. 


I have 2 sparrows who sit each night under my carport roof. Only one is there tonight. Did the female leave? I hope she is ok. Too cold for them here. I will miss them when they are gone. No deer have been here in two days. Or I have not seen them. Do see a skunk often. Do not want it here. I yelled at it last ngiht.  She left then.


Photos are ones I took today.
