Today's Name Day:  Teresia , Terese

I went to school with a Therese.  Know her & her sister still.  Sort of related to each other distantly.  Once had a friend Theresa.  Tried to be friends with her but guess I was not good enough.  And she is even a neighbour.  Never see her now.  Not in years.  I gave up.  She never even tried.

    Today started out ok.  Slept well but in severe pain.  Fed the kittens & Mom first.  Then a storm hit.  Heavy brief rain & maybe some hail.  Had 0.79" of rain.  They all rain for cover & not seen them since.  They still have food & water.

    After lunch I laid down for a short nap.  Some how in my sleep I twisted my bad knee.  Now I cannot put weight on it & hard to walk,  Cancelled Pizza Hut for tonight.  JR probably cares but doubt anyone else would care even if they would know.  No need to tell anyone.

    Has stayed cloudy & cool today.  Need to carry trash out but not today.  I hurt everywhere.  Hopefully tomorrow.

    Photos are a mix.  Many I have taken.  Nothing special.

My great grandsons this week.  Pretty rare that I get to see them.  More important for MM to see them.

Bryce Canyon,  I would give almost anything to get to go back,  But I have no more dreams of anything but living alone.  No friends or family to help me.  No one warned me getting older was hell.

Today's Name Day:  Markus

Known or been related to several Marks.

    Today was a good day.  Slept good.  And was ready to go to work at the SVAFC by 12 noon.

    I went out to feed the kittens & Miss Kitty.  Some how one kitten got in my living room!!  She did not stay long.  I opened the front door & out she went!!  All were present.

    There was some big party on Main Street plus a tennis tournament in town.  I worried that I could not get a parking place for work so MH let me in the back door.  While waiting I took photos of the back of the buildings & am sharing them here.

    And parking was sparce.  So glad I did not have to search.  Hundreds of people were walking around.  Not many came in to see the art show.  Just a few.  Last weekend for it.

    Had 3 people come in that I know well.  Good to visit.  The one has been as sick as I have been with the same cough, sore throat, etc.  RSV.  We are both are about at the same part of that sickness.  Has been no fun.

    At one point my daughter decided to come into the gallery. not knowing I work there.  She stopped in her tracks & almost slammed the door shut & almost ran down the street.  I was friendly & not rude.  But oh the awful memories that came back -----  trying to steal my farm, calling me various & many names, & threats of physical assault.  Really upset me.  I wrote to MM for support.

    I sort of planned to eat out but was too upset.  Went home, cried & took a nap.  Hope she has nightmares tonight.  She has worked long & hard to make sure that many family members really dislike me.  No one asks my side so I just move on.  Karma will take care of her.  Will make sure to visit Willie's grave more often. She may decided to hurt it as revenge.

    My cats were glad to see me,  Cinder slept on me for a long time.  Kisse stayed close.

    After my nap I fed the kittens again.  All present.

    Weather was ok.  Warm but not hot.  Calm winds.  Severe weather but not here.  Maybe tomorrow,

    Running late tonight.  Time for Spanish lesson.  Ugh!!!
