Where is my winter??  Super warm weather is coming again.  Drought is back.  😔

Today's Name Day:  Ella,  Gabriella

Have known an Ellie & Elly.  Know a sweet Gabi.  Love the name Gabriella.

    Had a good day today.  Slept sort of ok.  But I was so chilly all night.  I added socks, long sleeved shirt, & a third blanket.  Then I felt cozy

    Up early to get ready for lunch out.  Met my thursday group.  I got there first.  Then MH showed up.  I usually watch who comes in but I failed.  CA & SR came in but did not see me.  They sat up front.  We were in the back.  And they are never late.  I finally called CA.  What a shock that they were in & had their food!!!  That was a first!!!  I only had a burger & fries.  Really good.  We visited until around  130pm.  Then I went home.

    Checked the mail hoping for my glucose sensors.  Nothing but junk in the mailbox..  Maybe tomorrow.

    I took a nice, restful & cozy nap.  Needed that.

    Temps are falling now.   It is 29 here now.  Have water dripping.  Small chance for some moisture of some kind.  Short break from heat & bugs.  Weathermen are sooo excited for heat returning.  Where is our winter.  I am not excited.  Flies inside the house & a mosquito in my car.  Have a bug zapper ordered.  My old one does not work.  I assume the heat, humidity, & bug lovers are happy.

    Huge fires continue in southern Kansas.  Had a man on the news who lost his mom's house, his house, his farm buildings/equipment.  He had  safes in his house that were supposed to be fireproof.  Everything in those safes burned up.  He lost a milllion dollars of  damage that he is not sure he can recover.  His neighbours are helping him & his family in big ways.  Don't always see that in cities.

    I had some mail in boxes but too cold to mess with.  Wait for the heat again.  Nothing important that the cold will hurt.

    Emailing JL today.  That was it.  Photos are a mix & even a couple I took.

Today's Name Day:   Freda, Fritiof

There was a Freda a bit older than me in school.  And a Fredolf from Falun.

    An ok day.  Not quite enough sleep.  Took my pill too late.  Hard to sleep again.

    Today was a work at the Old Mill.  Finished the photos I was on.  In the Smolan box was a hand written "book" of short stories & cookie recipes by kids.  Cute.  Started making copies of it. I hope that a few in the future will enjoy it!!  The first couple of names I did not know.  Then the names were familiar to me.  Fun!!

    Lots of talk about pancakes today.  I would have killed for a couple of pancakes, but not in Lindsborg.  Have none anywhere.  Used to be able to get Swedish pancakes but no more.  That is so sad.  What a poor Swedish town we are.

    Supper was at Jalisco's.  I told MA I almost called him to make me pancakes.  He said he would have made some for me.  Nice to hear but I doubt.

    I will no longer say who ignores me.  Just assume they all do.  Email from JL.  Grateful for her.  Always hear fron N&C first thing of the day &. last thing of the day.  Did get photos from LP in Brazil at the Carnival,  Lucky him.

    Weather was ok.  Not strong winds here.  Good.  Wonder what the forecast is.  Same or changed.

    The weather is playing havoc with my body.  There is no place I do not hurt.  And movement is awful.  Hands & feet & all in between.  FML.  Chronic pain is not fun.  I try not to say anything to anyone.  And when I do I just get ignored.  Happened tonight.  Treated like all is well.  Again.  FML.

    I have learned that dozens of birthdays for people I do not know or will never know are getting old.  Started ignoring or only a very simple greeting.  Unless the family is super important to me I just ignore.  Too much.  And the same for all the huge family/friend get togethers.  Those hurt.  I have no one like that to be part of.  Walk on by.  Just ignore.

    Cold is coming just do not know when.  And maybe a bit of rain.  For me a very small bit.

    No cattle today or llamas.  Dang.  Maybe tomorrow.

    Photos are gnomes or gnome like drawings.

Love this one

Cute!!

You always leave food out for the gnomes.
