Today's Name Day:  Rebecka , Ruben

I have a great friend from Sweden.  She & I & two other Swedish ladies started blogging together on Yahoo many years ago.  I amthe only one who still blogs,  Still friends with all of them. Rebecka moved to Canada & got married & is still there.

Known several Beckys.  One is a niece of Willie's.  Local famous singer is a Becky.  She is awesome.

    Today could have been better.  I got little sleep.  In the middle of a major RA flare for several days.  And nauseated today.  Been hard to walk.

    Baby Kitten was glad to see me.  I fed & watered her.  Tonight I picked her up & held her for quite a long time.  And she never struggled to jump away.  Nice for a change.

    I took a nice afternoon nap.  Kisse was in front of the TV & Cinder was on her box under the lamp.  Three who love each other.  We are few & far between.  I am so grateful for them.

    I was mostly ignored today.  I have made a collection of grapics to explain how my day is.  Most people do not care.  And a few who should check on me or ask how I am, do not.  One graphic & no explanations.  Who cares & what do I know.

    I voiced my opinion on something I had a text about but I was pretty much told I know nothing.  Will keep my opinions to myself.  What do I know???  Not much.

     Supposed to have my car worked on tomorrow but might cancel for a week.  See how I feel.

    Tired of sticking my fingers for my blood sugars.  Fingers getting sore.  😞

    Super windy today.  Gusts were from 40mph to 50mph.  Saw a high of 95F.  Hate summer.

    Photos are a mix. Some I have taken.

Wheat.

Wild flower.

Scissor-tailed Flycatcher. One of my favorite birds but super hard to get a photo of them.  Too skittish,

This is one of the best race car drivers ever,  Jack Petty.  I knew him.  I worked with his father at the White Cross Nursing Home.  He was in a near fatal wreck at the race track at the State Fair track.  He did survive & kept driving,  Severely scared.  Found a photo of the wreck.  Several drivers were burned,  1974.

Today's Name Day:  Albin,  Elvira

Lindsborg had a couple of men named Albin.  I remember a lady named Elvira from Assaria years ago.  And there is the famous actress who uses the name Elvira.  Born in Kansas.

    Not a good night or day.  I could not sleep to save my life.  Finally slept from 10am until 1pm.  Ready to nap again.  Cancelled the entire day.  We have had rain, hail, & thunder.  The temp is 31F now.  MM had a photo of hail on a table outside.

    Kisse has slept anywhere but her bed.  Weird.  No idea why.  Cinder stayed in the living room most of the time.

    I took a short nap then had supper.  The rain has left this area,  Just cold out.

    Photos are a mix.  Some I know I have shared before but I like them.
