Today's Name Day:  Magnus, Måns

was sort of a friend with a Magnus & still know him as an adult.  My great grandmother's last name was Magnusdotter.  Meaning she was the daughter of Magnus.

    Slept ok last night.  Had plans for today.  Got a late start but then all went well.

    While MM got showered & dressed I got  smothered in love by his dog Gracie & Rolo a sweet dog he is babysitting.  They were just what I needed today.  They both were on me at the same time.  And once in a while Gracie would quietly growl reminding Rolo that I am HER grandma. Cute.  Rolo went home tonight.  Wonder if I can get visitation!!  Sweet dog!

    Then lunch was at the SaleBARn.  And we got a big surprise when we got there.  A great friend to both of us, AA, is working there.  Very cool.  And what a major hug I got from him.  Known him since he was in college here & the soccer team captain.  Lordy they need several like him.  Got 4 new team members this week.  Hope they help.  Have to find out his hours there so I can eat there then.  Great food.

    Then we went to the bank & then groceries for MM.  He was out of everything.  I got some monday night but I forgot things I needed.  No big deal.

    Sky looked quite stormy out but Lindsborg or my farm got nothing.  Other nearby places got heavy rains.

    We have cooler weather on the way.  Sunday the high will br 78F.  Heaven.  Friend CW who does not like hot weather. We had a long chat on the cool weather headed here next week.  Won't stay of course, but the break will be heaven.

    Could see that Jalisco's is busy working inside.  Hope it is going well. 

    I tried to take a short nap but it was just a rest.  Hope I sleep good tonight.

    Photos are a mix.

Today's Name Day:  Lea, Rakel

    Had a good day considering I had little sleep last night.  And no nap today.

    Had lunch with 2 friends at Pizza Hut.  I just had french fries.  I had a small breakfast mid morning.  Had a good visit  but I know I always talk too much.  Probably because I see people so rarely.  I am always sorry.  And we got a cool printer gift from the one friend's husband.  Fun!!

    I ordered groceries last night.  Picked them up around 2pm.  Got all but one thing.  Lots of things I never get since I am clueless.  Got my favorite potato salad.  And several different lunch meats.  Change is good.  Tired of the same ole same ole.  Need to do this all the time.

    Got a text from MM that he needed to see me.  Just as I parked at his house, there was a loud clap of thunder then heavy rain.  My grandpuppy was outside & hates storms.  Name is Gracie.  She curled up next to me & almost on my lap.  Got a nice photo or two.  And lots of love.

    I looked at my radar on my phone.  That tiny storm was the tiniest cloud just over part of Lindsborg.  Did not last long!  But Gracie still needed to cuddle!!

    I helped MM run an errand.  And we talked about his future plans.  We have one future plan that is even fun.  Great.  Something different.

    Got home & had a snack.  Now my blog.  Rain later.  Hope I sleep tonight.  Tomorrow is my extra long day ---- Swedish Friendship Group, lunch with LL, SVAFC, ----  no supper out.  Will be too tired. 

    Heat is arriving.  At least 100F or more.  Then a cooler front comes.

    Photos are a mix.  Lots of old harvest photos.  Miss those times.

Willie & our hired man eating Sloppy Joes for supper.  Miss them both.
