Today's Name Day:  Elin, Helena

I have known severak Elins & Helens

    Had a good day.  Slept good.  Cooler weather.  Cloudy but no rain here.  Saw lots of friends.  And a nice hug.

    Today is my weekly lunch with friends.  Today we ate at the Öl Stuga.  My friend CW was cooking.  No MM today.  Or ZR.  Good to see my friends.  Good conversation.  And I learned lots of info about some people in the photos I scan.  Nice to know them better.

    Before I went home CW & I had a chance to chat,  I found out that I have known his grandmother since I was a child  & his aunt as an adult.  So I told him how I know them.  Nice we have a connection to each other.  I cannot imagine why he likes me but he does.  I am lucky,  I got a nice hug from him.

    Got to my car & MM showed up with a friend of his I do not know.  Nice to get to meet her.  Maybe a new friend??  She seems really nice.  Tonight he is at a concert near Wichita that is outside in a park.  Perfect night for it,  It is great to see him feeling good & having fun.

    Went home & no cat heard me.  I changed clothes & took a nap.  Kisse showed up when I laid down. No Cinder.  Both are in the living room with me now.  Cinder has been on me several. times for attention,  They are sleeping now,

    The paved road I take to Lindsborg is closed so I have to take a back road to town.  I have picked a nice one that goes past the cemetery whereWillie is buried.  As is MM's father,  And my friend John, and many of my relatives.  I always talk to Willie when I am close to to him & to both John & MM's father.  And my relatives.  I always report to MM that things are OK.  I did not know his father,  Wish  I had.  I was at his burial,  And met his mom there.

    The road I take to town goes by several fields that we farmed.  Makes me sad.  Sometimes cry a bit. Miss Willie & those days.  Too late now.

    I am sick to death of summer. So photos today are all autumn.  They give me peaceful feelings.  And hope.

None for me today.

Today's Name Day:  Greta, Margareta

Grew up with a Margaret.  Good friends in school but never after graduation.  All my school friends never stay friends with me.  Knew a Greta.

    Not a good day for me healthwise.  I ended up cancelling the entire day.  I just never get used to my chronic diseases.

    I felt beyond tired eating lunch.  A nap was needed.  Slept well.  No idea where Cinder, but Kisse was in her new nest where she can see me.

    I now know who starts the chasing through the house.  Cinder was on my lap when Kisse walked by on the floor.  Cinder crouched down ready to attack.  She must have read my mind so she did not chase.

    I did carry all my trash bags out after my nap.  It was hard to breathe outside.  I filled one bin.  I carried boxes out to the bins.  Hope they stay put until tuesday.  I have them sort of braced in between a tree & bin.  There are 3 boxes far too heavy for me to move.  I did call for help with them.  Be nice to have my bench cleared off.  Then I can enjoy it again.

    Had a nice message from MM, an email from a friend in California, & my friend who checks on me almost daily.  She & her partner spent the day at the pool.  A pool would be nice but none for me.  And won't be seen public in a swimsuit.  😮

    Awful weather.  I saw 99F.  Tomorrow will be 103F & feels like 105F.  No relief in sight.  They say this dome of heat will still be here in the early part of August.  Keeps the heat, humidity, & bug lovers happy.  Yay for them.  😱

    Photos are mostly flowers.

Adorable.  Part of a video.
