Scenes from Lindsborg, Kansas
Today's Name Day: Ester
I knew several Esters or Esthers. Some in town. One I worked with at a hospital where I worked.
Had an ok day. All alone & mostly ignored by all. JL & I have emailed. One or two texts from JR.
I slept ok. I was too warm then too cold. Finally got comfy.
The cats & I have a new routine at night. Once I turn my iPhone off & lay on my left side then Cinder comes to snuggle with me. But she never stays long. I assume she goes back to the living room. When she is gone I lay on my right side. Then Kisse comes & messages my back until she curls up & lays next to me for a long time. I like her doing that. Relaxing for me. Once she leaves & lay however I want.
Today I went to feed the outside cat. She is a sweetie. Not really afraid. I fed her & called her. Later when I went out most of the food was gone but here she came. She comes if I call her Kitty. For now her name is Miss Kitty. She lets me pet her. Not sure she was someone's pet. But she likes me since I feed her. But who knows. She almost wants to lay by me on my bench but just cannot quite do it. But she has rubbed on my legs & licked my hand. Got to pet her alot. Photos of her on here. And she is living under my house.
Lots of cattle near my yard. And lots of babies!! So cute. Were kind of lazy in the nice weather. No llamas to be seen. Too lazy to walk over here???
Took lots of photos. There are some tiny flowers but too much breeze. Those photos were awful. Try again another day,
I ordered another wallet. The one I was using is nice but way too large. Hard to get it in my purse. A new one came today. What a joy!! Holds all I need. Weighs little. Fits in my purse easily.
Not much pain today. But I am sure that will change. Rain approaches. That will trigger pain, etc.
Back to work tomorrow & get to meet the our new director. I am dreading that awful scanner. I can only dream of a new one. Not all dreams come true.
Need to go to the mail box. I know there is mail there. And, of course, all the cattle are gone but Larry & Coco are near there. Of course. And no iphone.
I almost fell down my porch steps. My knee is now in excruciating pain. Dang. Awful. Storm clouds coming this way from the north. I knew it. I got a new pain killer essential oil in the mail. See if it helps. Nothing ever does. Also got some new lotion for extra dry skin. Called Renew. See if it helps.
I got tired of trash bags. I did not want to bother anyone & there was not even one offer of help, so pain or no pain & carried out 7-8 bags of trash. I could toss them off my porch, then go down the steps to pick each one up to toss closer to the trash bin. I had my iphone & kept it on a table near the trash bins. Figured if I fell outside I could slide that far to it. No pockets.
And another new thing for my purse. A new thing to carry my insulin in. I like the one I use but it is hard & takes up a lot of room. This should be better.
Now time to photos. Miss Kitty & Lindsborg & Mill photos.
Cinder on a table outside. Before her big scare.

Local lady, Rosalie Hershey. What a sweet lady. Glad I knew her. Her husband was distantly related to the Hershey's of chocolate fame.
