7/2026 - Sunday the 5th- MY JOURNEY

 

Wish I was there.  I loved Hawaii.  Beautiful & nice people.

Today's  Name. Day:  Ritva , Laila

    Today was a good day.  I slept good & am walking pretty good.  Nice.  Cats ate fair overnight.  Normal.  Daisy always eats whatever I give her.

    I keep hoping for changes outside but nothing ever changes.  I will keep hoping.  And talk to my guardian angels.  Maybe they can help.  I refuse to beg.

    I was supposed to see someone at work today but I was sure it would not happen.  And I was right.  No surprise.

    Had two visitors at work.  One is working on the upcoming show in October at the gallery y Bethany College.  Sounds really great!!  The other is my family.  I have always known we are related but he was clueless.  We had a great visit.  Art, politics, family, his parents.  I really like him!!

    Got a text from someone wanting me to work in August for her.  Great!!  I warned MH I would need him.

    I planned to watch Norway & Brazil live at work.  What a joke.  Nothing worked.  JR looked up the score at supper.  I was quite excited!!! Norway won!!!  Very cool.  Even a friend in Sweden was rooting for them!!!  Now at home is England & Mexico.  Hoping for a Mexico win.

    Supper was at Pizza Hut.  I got a very nice hug & he made sure I was ok.  Nice to be cared for. He is the best. I ordered something I thought I liked.  Not hungry.  Came home & had a cookies.

    Did my Spanish lesson & it was actually easy.  How did that happen!!  I have quit pushing my self.

Where I work at the Old Mill.  I work in the basement of this building with my scanner & photos.

Turkeys in my yard.  When Willie was alive he would clean out the combines here & the turkeys liked it.

Rain storm.

Seven years ago we cut Willie's last wheat he sowed.  Seems like yesterday.  A day full of tears & laughter.  I fed them pizza.  Never spent that much in Pizza Hut!!!

                                                                     

           

7/2026 - Saturday the 4th- MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Ulrika , Ulla

    Today was ok.  My walking is much better.  No one made fun of me & my walking.  My feelings are still pretty raw & hurt.  Takes a lot to surprise me today but those nasty comments did surprise me.  Thought I was liked.  HA!!!

    I slept good.  So I felt good today.

    I moved where the cats eat in the house.  And cats do not like things changed.  I was worried but when I got up in the middle of the night they had eaten.  Good.  I fed Daisy.  Nothing dead on the porch by her today.  Fed her before I left for the day.

    Today was a work day.  I found I can watch FIFA live on YouTube.  Very cool!!!  Kept me busy.  NO people came in until late..  Lots of people out walking but no interest in the gallery.  Eventually had 3 people come in.  Two local ladies & one guy who works in the gallery,  Really like him.  We had a nice visit.  New art show,  I like it a lot.  Two men & their art.  I shared a photo of each of their work.  Love it all!!!

    Got home after work & took a nice nap.  Too many memories.  Makes me really sad to remember.  Willie & I were always invited to a family get together.  Great BBQ food & desserts.  Family & friends & even a few who actually talked to me!  The. loudest fireworks ever!  But then Willie died.  And I never got invited again.  I know why but it still hurts.  I cried today.

    I bought some new crackers.  Not sure I can eat them.  Cheddar & jalapeno flavored.  Way too hot for me!!!!  I gave up.  Back in the box they went.  Sounded good!!!

    Fed Daisy & got a load of litter to bring in the house,  Will most likely feed her again.  My baby.  She wants to come in so bad.  How nice that would be.  Maybe when she is older.

    No storms forecast.  Lindsborg got some showers early today.  I got nothing as usual.  Now nothing for a few days..

Love this one!

I looked at this photo today.  And I saw an extra hand!!!!  Awful!!  I got rid of it.  How did that happen???

                                                              

                                                                                                                                                                                          

04/2026 - Lördagen den 25: e - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Markus

Known or been related to several Marks.

    Today was a good day.  Slept good.  And was ready to go to work at the SVAFC by 12 noon.

    I went out to feed the kittens & Miss Kitty.  Some how one kitten got in my living room!!  She did not stay long.  I opened the front door & out she went!!  All were present.

    There was some big party on Main Street plus a tennis tournament in town.  I worried that I could not get a parking place for work so MH let me in the back door.  While waiting I took photos of the back of the buildings & am sharing them here.

    And parking was sparce.  So glad I did not have to search.  Hundreds of people were walking around.  Not many came in to see the art show.  Just a few.  Last weekend for it.

    Had 3 people come in that I know well.  Good to visit.  The one has been as sick as I have been with the same cough, sore throat, etc.  RSV.  We are both are about at the same part of that sickness.  Has been no fun.

    At one point my daughter decided to come into the gallery. not knowing I work there.  She stopped in her tracks & almost slammed the door shut & almost ran down the street.  I was friendly & not rude.  But oh the awful memories that came back -----  trying to steal my farm, calling me various & many names, & threats of physical assault.  Really upset me.  I wrote to MM for support.

    I sort of planned to eat out but was too upset.  Went home, cried & took a nap.  Hope she has nightmares tonight.  She has worked long & hard to make sure that many family members really dislike me.  No one asks my side so I just move on.  Karma will take care of her.  Will make sure to visit Willie's grave more often. She may decided to hurt it as revenge.

    My cats were glad to see me,  Cinder slept on me for a long time.  Kisse stayed close.

    After my nap I fed the kittens again.  All present.

    Weather was ok.  Warm but not hot.  Calm winds.  Severe weather but not here.  Maybe tomorrow,

    Running late tonight.  Time for Spanish lesson.  Ugh!!!
