18 october, 2022 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    Well today was not as I planned.  Around 5am I awoke with a bad cough & an unpleasant feeling in my lungs.  I have had pneumonia several times in the past.  When I get a cold, it settles in my lungs.  It feels like pneumonia but it is not.  Goes away when the cold does.  I have no fever.  Maybe caused by my flu shot.  I hope.  Coughed all day.  With a bad headache.

    Had a doctor's app't in Hutchinson today that I canceled.  Could not have driven that far.  The sofa was as far as I made it.  And the porch.

    Tomorrow is questionable.  Do not want to be around anyone coughing my head off.  And one would want me around.

    We got down to 24F last night.  High today was 50F.  Felt so-so outside but I got chilled fast.  Probably because I was sick.

    Cinder hid in the afternoon.  Probably had a quiet, sunny place she lays in.  Usually comes from the shed to the west.

    Warmer weather coming this weekend.  Next week small chances of rain.  Love how Kansas is just forgotten & never important.  The national news had a report on the states with temps in the 20s tonite.  Kansas was not included.  Sad.  We are in a warning for freezing.

    Photos today are of an early snow on the day of an art auction.  The flowers were covered in snow or ice.  A some photos from my farm.

                

    

Wandering, 10 march, 2022

     Not a bad day.  Just kind in a down mood.  No reason why, I just am.  I slept good in a warm room in a warm bed!!!  I should be joyous!!  If only depression worked that way!

    Had an eye doctor appointment I did not plan on making it to.  They beat me and called me first!  Rescheduled for next week.

    We got maybe 5 inches of snow.  It was pretty coming down last night.  I never went out to walk in it so I am pretty sure it was that deep.  It is always deeper away from the house!  And it got pretty cold also.  And to be much colder tonight.  But warming this weekend.  My winter is over.

    I should have went out to take photos of the last snow.  So they say.  But there could be another snow even though the weatherman dares not say it.  I remember snow on Easter.  I have no hope of it though this year.

    I got my hair washed in a warm shower.  I changed how I dried it so see how it looks tomorrow.  My hair stylist must have used something different on my hair.  It felt different.  I used nothing on it but hairspray when done drying.  Hope it stays softer.  My hair is fine but really thick.  No one told me an ionic hair dryer dries your hair faster.  Great!

    I have to get to town tomorrow or my nephew is going to have to loan me some dog food.  I am almost out.  I found some wet food that the inside pets do not like in any way.  Cinder is not so picky.  She is diving in!  I swore I had another small bag in the house but I am wrong.  I have plenty of wet food.  Eat or starve for a day.  Amazon is delivering my dry food on saturday ---- 2 days early!!!  I love when that happens.

    Watching Maine Cabin Masters.  The dark haired guy (I am terrible with names!) found some old clothes in the cabin they are fixing.  He put them on and it seemed to give him some super powers!!  I cannot imagine how great it would be to own a cabin in Maine.  Great life!  I think from my Scandinavian blood I should live near water.  And not the muddy river in my town.  Not even close.  My great grandmother lived in Sweden where there are some mountains.  It reminded me of Colorado when I was there.  I believe many things are passed down with your DNA or whatever.  I have always loved Colorado and being in the mountains.  But never spent lots of time there.  One week every august.  And certainly not in the mountains.  Mostly in Denver.  But the love of mountains and streams was always in me.

    I hope my drive way is easy to drive down late tomorrow.  Time will tell.

    Photos today are some that are altered.  I love doing that.
