Today’s Name Day is Erika. I do not know anyone with this name. Thought for today: — Joseph Wood Krutch I have no clue why I am blogging today but on the off chance that someone actually reads it, here I go. I have been home all day. Did nothing special — dishes, some exercise, laundry. Boring stuff. It has stayed very cold & with the wind, felt much worse. We dipped to 4F or -16C. We had a chance for ice/snow/rain tonite. They took it out but now a small chance is back in. Tomorrow will be around 40F or 4C. Someone asked about some candlesticks in my heirloom photos. The photo today shows them plus a flower pot that was given to me. When last in Sweden I stayed at Lars fathers farm while they all went to a wedding. The neighbour, Sture, visited me one day & the next too me into Alingsås till fika at his daughters café. Then we went back to his farm where I met his wife Mona & their hired man. Mona is a wonderful artist. She had painted ’stencils’ on their walls & heating stove. They were beautiful. She gave me this flower pot. It actually survived in my small bag that I checked in. The bottom piece to catch water broke in 2 but I easily glued it back together. The candlesticks are from Sweden & I bought them on eBay. That is all I know. I just thought they were lovely. I have not felt the best today. Willie brought some wonderful pizza home for lunch. I liked it a lot but it sure did not like me. I am living on zantac again almost every time I eat. Probably just stress. Hopefully will be better when the wedding is over. Too much on my mind. I totally forgot that the grooms parents pay for the reherseal dinner. Probably because Bill & Jenn are doing so much of the wedding themselves. So it is all planned but we will pay for it. And I am worried about what we will do with Jo? If we leave her home in her pen, she will still get out. I think we will just bring her along. Willie can take her out of the car/truck to play with her every so often. I wanted to stay overnite rather than drive home in the middle of the nite after the dance, but Willie refuses to. He says he will not drink. Like I will believe that. He is NOT driving me home after drinking all nite. I will be tired but I will manage to drive the hour or more home. I have tried to pin him down what we should get them. But whatever I suggest he argues about. I may simply give them some cash. Then they can use that on their honeymoon or towards moving here. Gått för dagen. Kanske.

Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want.
