Today's Name Day:  Konrad, Kurt

I have a friend Kurt but no idea where he is now.  Miss him.

    Today started out so-so.  I got no sleep until 6am.  No idea why I was not sleepy.  Odd.

    But then things were ok.  Had to go back to my body shop.  I told them my dash still says the right turn signal is not working.  Soooo.  They checked & it was not working.  There is a packrat living under my hood & other places.  I went back after my lunch & they cleaned all the nest out.  What a mess!!!  I got advice on what to do.  And I have talked to KN  also.  That animal can ruin my entire car.  I am NOT in a good mood.  I am terrified.

    My lunch was really good with SR.  I had something new.  Had a grilled cheese with bacon & lingon.  Very tasty.

    I picked up my groceries.  Cinder & I are set.  And I got all the yogurt I ordered.  Nice.

    I got all my mail read & now working on my blog.

    Now if my stress would go away. Por qué a mi??

   Thought I heard KN outside.  Not there but both llamas are there.  Nice to see them

Today's Name Day:  Mårtin

I had a cousin in Sweden named Mårtin.  We emailed but I never met him.  He worked with trains all over the world.

Yesterday I left out a Martin.  Rev. Martin Ringstrom who lived & LBK. Got to know him well.  We attended the Swedish Friendship Group.  He was very special,  His daughter is JL.  He lived in LBK for many years.  He lived to almost 100 yrs. old.  We were lucky to have him!!

    Today turned into a fantastic day.  My car is done!!  KN was busy until 4pm.  No problem.  But it turned out he was done by 3pm.  So off we went.  Had a couple of extra charges.  No problem.  

    Sure felt good to drive home.  Can get groceries tomorrow.  Cinder & I were getting low.  No idea if I will be included in lunch tomrrow .  I do not care.  They ignored me last week.  Too tired to care.

    Nice weather today.  Won't last.  Cooler is coming.  Much cooler.  I am ready.  And rain maybe tonight  & this weekend.  And then a week later.  Good!

    Daisy has just laid on me & now Cinder.  Her one eye looks teary.  Has she been fighting???  She is now curled up by me. And now asleep.  I hope not.  It is usually Kisse & Daisy chasing & fighting.  Kids!!!!

    Why do I watch the news.  All the news is tragedy!!  Cannot share what they talked about.

    Only a photo or two from MM.  Email from JL.  That is it.  My friend that we text twice a day is off to visit family in western KS.  Might not hear much more today.

    I was cold in bed last night.  Today the house was warm.  I just left it as is.  See how cool it gets tonight.

    About supper time.  Will try a new TV meal.  Chicken of some kind.  See how it tastes.

Need to make this.

Bestie in my life.  Even though he lives far away,  So glad we took lots of photos of us.  They are precious.

Most important people in my life if only they lived longer or closer.  Grandma Richardson,  Grandpa Ted Johnson, Grandpa Shogren "Boppa" & Grandma Shogren "Mimi".  How different my life could have been.  I still feel deprived.
