Blogg 30/03/2012 Futbol, art, Swedish group, mojito…

 

Weather is just too warm. The house is too warm. The A/C needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, that is not my decision or right or privilege to do that. So, I suffer. There has been rain in the state, but nary a drop near my farm. What else is new?

 

Everything blooming is about a month early. Our wheat is headed out. IF we get a freeze in april, our crop is cooked. And that could happen. Time will tell.

 

Wednesday I had acupuncture. She did the normal needles. I have no idea what has changed but my back pain is a bit less. I have done nothing different. I am not pain free, but better. Hmmm.

 

Today was my Svenska Vänskapsgruppen, Swedish Friendship Group. Actually had a nice group. I had bought a 1900 Messiah poster/article. I brought it and read the text then passed it around for the group to see the photos. It sparked so many memories of Messiah festivals of the past. So much history and so many memories. This was Alf and Maud Brorson’s last meeting with us. Oh, how I will miss them. They leave the monday after Easter. Alf told us about Påsk – Easter – in Sweden. Wish I was there. I always wish that.

 

I took myself out to lunch at Jalisco’s. I surprised Eric there by learning a new phrase all by myself. ‘Muy sabroso’. That means ‘very tasty’. Francisco and I had a fun talk about futbol!! Finally. Someone I can chat with about futbol!!! Most people around here have no idea there is such a thing or any of the players. The waiters from Jaslico’s play futbol every sunday afternoon. After Easter, I am going to watch me my first live futbol match!!!!

 

This afternoon I worked at Lindsborg Collects. My last time. It was fairly slow. My friend Naomi came in to chat a bit. Good to see her!!!

 

Came home tonite and had a mojito. Ended the day just right!!!

Blogg 02/02/2012 Quiet week, soon rain…

 

 

Weather has stayed warm but there is a blizzard warning for tonite and tomorrow for NW Kansas. We might get rain here but not holding my breath. Schools are already cancelled for tomorrow out west. According to the radar, there is rain here now. Must not be hitting the ground.

 

Tuesday afternoon I had acupuncture in McPherson at Healthy Lifestyle. Lord, I needed it. My back hurts constantly. Hard to even turn over in bed. Dr. Tina did some different needles. Helped a bit. Will return in 2 weeks. This cannot continue. On top of this Willie is worse than me. He gets a cramp in his thigh/hip. Then he can hardly move or sit. He finally called his chiropractor. Finally. I am worried that it will just get worse and then what? There is no family to help him, maybe our nephew. But we cannot impose on anyone. More stress. Never ending.

 

After my appointment I went to Lakeside Park. No one else was there so I sat wherever I wanted. And the geese were nearby. Took lots of photos. I love it there. Very relaxing, a rather zen time. Should go there more often.

 

Tuesday nite Messiah Chorus rehearsals began. I have not sang since 2009. I just could not sing after Mom died. She sang for 63 years. One of the longest singing members. But my emotions are better this year. This is my 20th year. My back about killed me but so be it. I have missed singing. And thinking of Mom was ok, even good. I did lots of acupressure and that helped my back a bit. Will start before the next rehearsal.
