Today's Name Day:  Adela, Heidi

I have a cousin in Washington state name Adela.  The owner of Jalisco's has a daughter Adela.  A local family have a daughter named Heidi.

    

    I had a good day.  Finally.  I slept fair.  Cinder cuddled from 6am until I got up.  Nice.

    I met LL for lunch at the White Peacock.  MM needed a ride to downtown plus my umbrella.  He walked with me inside.  Nice to have someone worry about me.  I was scared to death today.

    LL & I had a nice lunch & visit.  It is nice on fridays that it is just her & me.  We can discuss work with no one to hear our opinions.  Nice moments.  While we were eating, MH came in for lunch.  He was soooo excited that his art show starts today.  He asked if I am ready!!  I can hardly wait to see it all tomorrow.

    After LL left for work, MM returned to give me my umbrella.  And help me to my car.  After getting to my car without incident, my strong feelings of fear left.  MM is the best!!!  He was off to Salina & some shopping.  He got a bright red Chiefs  shirt.  Nice one.

    Lots of texting between CW & me also.  He is a nice friend.  I am so lucky.  I got this week's newpaper with a huge article about my artist friend RG.  Cannot wait to read it all.  And a delivery guy came to the Old Mill.  He is an artist that I know.  Had a great visit.  He is a fantastic artist.

    Work was good.  I finished the photos I was working on.  Then the next bunch I sorted by size & added names of those I know.  There were some special people in them.  Two Swedish people I remember so well.  One was a great man who was the head of the Stockholm opera.  I spent some nice time with him.  The other was a nice lady I ate almost daily lunches with her & another Swede.  Her daughter was an actress who was up for a movie award like our Oscar.  And we got to see her film.  Great memories.  I actually got started scanning them.

    Then JR & I ate at Jalisco's.  It looks awesome!!  A lady & her daughter who used to live here are back & working in Jalisco's.  She saw me walk in & came to give me a huge hug!!  I was surprised & she made my week!!!  Great to see her!!  I am glad she is here.  We will take care of her here.

    The Bethany College mens soccer team had a match today in Nebraska.  And they won 5-0.  Wow!!! Awesome.  Great start to the year.  Have to try to go to a match or two.

    Home now & tired.  Bed will feel good.

    Photos are many autumn pictures, Halloween, & others.  I love the autumn colors.  Today was heaven.  Our high was around 60F.  Almost cold!!  Rained from 3am until 430pm.  Did not get much but it was awesome weather.

Today's Name Day:  Fatima, Leila

    Pretty good day.  Slept good when I finally fell asleep.  Had a thunderstorm around 3am.  Had some thunder & lightning.  I got a total of 0.68".  More than usual.  Nice.  Today stayed cloudy & dry.  Pretty cool.  Nice.  Hope this weather lasts for a long time.

    Lunch with girlfriends was cancelled.  Will meet next week.  I was tired so not upset.

    Jalisco's reopened.  Totally new look.  Will miss the brick walls.

    Met my artist friend RG.  We met at the Sale BARn.  I was a bit early & got to make friends with our waitress & the owner of the business who is also the cook.  Got bad news though.  RG is leaving earlier than he & I thought.  He goes home on saturday.  Dang.  I love his company.  He is fun to talk to but I always talk too much. Probably since I an lonely often.  Next year he is not here until September.  Too long to wait.  We have decided to make phone calls.  Be nice.

    Lowering my insulin is better so far.  RA sucks big time.  Awful.

    When I headed for home I noticed how low my fuel was.  Yikes!!!  Thank goodness I was still in town.  Close call.

    Photos are flowers & a mix.

I would love to have this!

I bought the post card.  It had the owner's name & the address.  So wanted to see if the house was still here.  It is.  Very cool.

Today's Name Day:  Jon, Jonna

I am friends now with a Johnita, a lady.  I was in high schooll with a Johhnie.  A girl..  Have know many Jon's or John's.

    Had a pretty good day!!  Slept good with a short nap.  Cinder slept with me in my nap.  Love her snuggles & purring.  😸

    Had an eye dr, appointment.  Not with the dr.  Just a test. Was not in the mood so I canceled.  No big deal.

    Met my friend RG for supper at the Crown & Rye.  They were really busy.  Good to see.  Even saw a few people I know.

    RG walked by Jalsico's on the way for supper.  No one in there.  The carpet is still there but all tables & chairs are gone.  Who knows where.  Storage unit?  Sold?  Hmmmm.  We will not plan on eating there next thursday.  Going somewhere else.  

    Weather is ok today.  High around 91 but low humidity.  Really cold autumn like weather headed our way.  My friend CW is as excited as I am.  My friends who live in California have super hot weather.  Las Vegas will be 109F tomorrow.  I could live with that.  Just never leave the casino.  No problem.  Been there in the heat.

    When I got home both cats came running to greet me.  Sweet.  Either glad to see me or into some thing they knew was a no no

    Photos are flowers & more.

The previous photos were taken at the Rosberg House a few years ago.
