Cooler weather coming our way.  Not fast enough though.

Today's Name Day:  Tiburtius

    My usual quiet day.  MM seems to be adjusting to his move but Gracie is tired of it all!!  Hope her fence is fixed.  His new house is right on the highway that goes through town.

    Had several emails from JL.  I am so grateful to having her as a friend.  I can vent to her if I need to.  No one else cares much.  Or even asks.  And she can vent to me anytime.  Plus we have fun things we write about.  And she shares lots of photos.  She is a seamstress & artist.  Wish we lived closer to each other.

    My one trash bin has been blown over for the last month.  Totally out in the open for all who come here to see.  But it has not moved.  Apparently my bin, my problem.  Even the trash guys 2 weeks ago ignored it.  It is scary for me to teeter way out there with my cane to try to pick it up.  Then moving it closer.  So I have ignored it.  But the trash guys this week were much nicer.  Both bins are upright & closer.  Nice.  Maybe close enough I can get to them easily.  Will try.

    Hot & windy again today.  Highs in the 90s.  Wind gusting to 45+ mph.  Nice.  Slight chance of rain tonight.  No doubt will miss my farm.  And more chances through the weekend.

    Several tornados yesterday in 6 eastern Kansas counties with lots of damage.  No major injuries.  Scary photos.  Towns I am not familiar with.

    My kittens are missing.  I hope Mom has moved them.  Tried calling.  She was missing yesterday & today.  Here now so I fed her. But no babies.

    No idea what got in to Kisse last night.  She was running all over the house, bedroom, my bed, me, etc.  Back & forth.  This was all around 230am.  She jumped from the top of my desk to the top of the bedroom door.  And sat there.  I took photos & posted one in a group I belong to & people liked it.  Posted it on FB & others liked it.  Some are here in my blog.

    Tried to nap but just rested.  It was post shampoo.  I was tired.  And lazy,  I did not try to style it.  Just left it curly.

    I am hungry already.  Hard to eat lunch.  Upset tummy.  Just my usual stomach.

I am not in a flower mood.  That will change if & when we get rain & wildflowers blooming,  Not just drought.

4/2026 - Måndag den 13:e - MY JOURNEY

 

Today's Name Day:  Artur,  Douglas

Known an Arthur or two.  Same for the name Douglas.  Knew people who had Douglas as a last name.

    A quiet day.  Slept ok & had a nap.  Weather is far too hot.  It is 92.8F now.  Stayed warm last night.  I got too warm then got too chilly.  High winds again today & fire caution.

    Fed Miss Kitty but no kittens on the porch.  Maybe sleeping under the house.  They were all here last night.  So cute.

    No one has texted to see what I needed the last weekend.  Guess they forgot I called for help.  I will do without.

    I left a message for someone this past weekend.  Called his office today.  They said he would call back. So far no call.  If he does not call, I will just forget what I want to do.  Not important.

    Paid my propane bill.  Yikes!!  Scary!!!  Hope no one else needs money!  Price has gone up I think.  With the hot weather at least I won't be using any propane.

    I wanted to watch TV on my iPad.  Wanted to use my mouse on my laptop.  No can do.  It was moving on my iPad.  Talk about confusing.  When oh when will CBS come back on.  What a mess.  But need to catch up on my soaps!! 

    MM got his furniture all moved in but probably not organized.  He has asked in a message  for things they have but do not want.  Been pretty successful in getting what he needs.  He has to patch the backyard fence to  keep Gracie from escaping.  She is an expert!!!  He is lucky.  A friend of his is moving & had stuff to get rid of.  Both are grateful!

    Need to shampoo my hair but not in the mood.  Maybe tomorrow.  And I need to take more trash out. But I do not want to walk in the yard with my cane & trash.  Want the trash bins closer but hate to bother anyone to move them.  Very frustrating.  I can still hear angry voices.  My fault???  Lots of guilt feelings.

    Feeling super stressesd & alone.  It will never end.  Especially the stress.  No answers there.  Or help.

    Photos are a mix.

What a. love affair!!!

Need him now.  And Willie.
