12/2025 - Domingo the 28th - MY JOURNEY





Today's Name Day:  Jasper, Woodrow
My cousin's father-in-law was Woodrow.

    Had an ok day.  Slept good.  I set my alarm really early to get my water dripping about the time it got really cold.
    Cinder slept with me off & on.  Kisse was near.  Once in the middle of the night there were no cats near me.  Who knows where they were?
    Had a middle of the night photo from MM & Gracie.  But nothing today.  A short email from JL.  Eating something made her ill yesterday so quiet today.  Hope she is better.  CF sent me photos of his now but nothing else.
    We had mist during the night & snow started really early today.  Long before I got up.  I made it out on the porch for a few photos.  I did not move much.  Carport is or was full of snow.  Scared to move much.  And did not try to walk down the steps.  Best to avoid places where I could slip & fall.
    Decided to stay home today.  Lindsborg might be ok but Burma Road could be icy & snow packed.  Best to stay home.  I did read where the interstate was slick & scary.  Maybe eat tomorrow evening.  Roads should be better but still very very cold.
    Spanish is going well.  For now.  And my Mexican friends are flying home today.  How lucky they were to be with family in Mexico.  I can dream.  Had my chance & blew it.
    The Julbok in Gävle Sweden collapsed in a bad storm today or yesterday.  Better than fire!  There is a video of him falling apart!!  Here is a clip from it.  See him lean.  Ended up in a pile of straw.
    I am sick of TV.  Dish has Holiday Dish Scapes.  I am watching some old ones now.  A fave is on now.  And Christmas music.  I never listened to Santa Baby or Blue Christmas.  Do those later.  Been a tough holiday time for me.
    Wish there was something good for supper here.  Boring stuff.  Sigh.  I read about a new cool eating plac/bar opening in Abilene.  It is on my list of places to go.  If. JR cannot get up early to eat at noon I am going alone.  Looks great!!!  I know the street it is on but not exactly where.  Saddles & Spurs.
    Photos are of my snow here & other wintry stuff.

My snow photos are first here.  Me in my slippers.












Two cute photos of cats.











Think this is my church in Sweden








Two AI photos of me.  Playing again.

12/2025 - Sábado the 13th - MY JOURNEY

 


Lucia Day  is a Christian feast day honoring St. Lucy (meaning "light"), a 4th-century martyr, and serves as a major Festival of Light in Scandinavia and other parts of Europe, ushering in the Christmas season with candlelit processions, saffron buns, and a focus on hope and light in winter's darkness




Today's Name Day:  Lucia
I actually have a sweet friend named Lucia.  She works at Jalisco's.  And has a sweet young daughter.  Love them both!! 💕

    Had an ok day but cold.  I decided my day was a Jammie Day.  Mostly rested.  Bed felt soo good.  Temp right now is 17F!!!!
    I went outside a couple of time.s  I could really feel the cold.  No mail delivered on my porch.
    Had an email from JL.  Gracie woke MM at around 3am wanting to play.  Who could say no???  She soon fell back asleep, but I got a couple of texts with photos.
    Today Lindsborg celebrated Lucia in town.  Both on Main Street, in a couple of churches, & the Old Mill.  There is food, Swedish dancing, we have 2 Lucias  ---  one is a high school girl & another is a 4th grade girl.  There are lots a cool crafts to buy.  One lady who creates knit things is giving away something to anyone who buys something at the Old Mill.  Great idea & so generous of her.  Even with the cold I hope there was a big crowd.  At the Mill Santa is in one building giving a talk.  The Pavilion has lots of music.  Super cold today.  In the 20s.  Brrrr. 🧊
    At nap time Cinder stayed in the living room, but Kisse loves me in bed.  She demands lots of petting.  And at some point will curl up next to me.  Love that.  She often sits near me in the living room too.
    Photos today are Lucia photos, Santas, Winter ones & drawings.

A live photo today from Gävle Sweden
