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.

These 2 photos of Mom & Dad were in my memories today.  Love the one of Dad taking a photo.  I added a pretty flower for fun.

 Today's Name Day:  Sara

Great name!!!  Have a cousin Sara in Denver.  I told her today is her name day!!!

    Had a good day today.  I promise not to have a melt down in my blog today.  I apologise for yesterday.  Responded to having all my tender feelings poked.

    Slept good until around 6am.  I was up briefly  & then could not get back to sleep.  But the kits made it interesting.  They do not play together with each other. Ever. As I am trying to go back to sleep suddenly the cats come chasing each other at a high rate of speed into my bedroom.  Sat for around 10 seconds,   Then they ran back to the living room super fast.  In a couple of minutes here they came again.  Running super fast into my bedroom.  Then they left a bit slower.  I was almost scared to see what the living room looked like.  All was ok.  Except the tv would not turn on.  Kisse sometimes steps on the power cord & turns it off.  I fixed it tonight after work.

    Worked at the Old Mill.  Poor LL was there alone.  Whenever someone came in she would run upstairs to take care of them.  She came down once & said a group of 20 just came in.  She moved upstairs then & stayed there.  I got lonely.

    Working on a group of photos that are boring.  Not enjoying them. But today I had a photo of 6 men who I either knew or figured out who they are.  Five of them had the first name of Ken.  I assume the one unknown man is also a Ken.  Will find out next week.  That was fun.

    Before supper I drove to the Swensson Park to see some flowers that I hoped were blooming.  They were & I took many photos.  Will share tonight,

    Then JR & I ate at Jalisco's.  MA stayed home today,  Good he got some time off.  I like the married couple who work there.  And their son who helps out in fluid Spanish & fluid English.  Very nice boy.  The husband talked to me & he even told me I looked good tonight.  Wow.  That was a surprise.  I sometimes never hear a nice compliment.  I enjoyed it.  Dessert was snow cones.  It will close when school starts. 

    Going home it looked like rain cloud to the west.  But totally missed us.  Of course.  The high today was a miserable 99F.  My friends in Sweden are having the same temps there like here.  They rarely see 85F.  We are all miserable.

    Got home & cleared a path to my tv plug in.  The tv was a total mess.  Took me a while to figure it out.  Then I got my jammies on.  Trying to feel comfy.  Trying.

    Watching Rachel Maddow & Nicolle Wallace on MSNBC.  I really like Nicolle.  Must watch her too.  Very great.  I enjoyed them talking to each other.

    Photos are a mix.  Nothing matches each other!!!

These 2 photos are art done by Eric Abraham.  Super artist & great guy.  He passed away several years ago.  Miss him.

Flowers in Swensson Park.

I ordered this tiny vase & a tiny bouquet for it.  It is in the Old Mill for me when I work.  Nice to have something pretty on my desk.

Next 2 photos have to do with my meltdown yesterday.  Not fun feelings.

My rooster from Sweden.

One of my Swedish friends said this in FB today.  Me too!!!

Today's Name Day:  Barbara, Barbro

Had a cousin Barbara who was so cool,  Died in the last few years,  When in Sweden I met a famous Sweden/European singer named Barbro,  Great memories.

    My day was pretty good other than I did not make it to Hutchinson..  Soon!!!  Hard to function today,  Cold front on the way & I sure felt it.

    But work was good.  I finally finished Folder S.  It had 131 photos in it.  Far too many!!  Started on Folder T.   It is all sorted & almost all the tiny photos scanned.   Hate them.

    Supper was steak at Jalisco's.  Excellent.  Then peppermint ice cream for dessert.   They say they make Old Mill Mint but I never get any of it.  Damn.  I am giving up.  Really upsets me.

    We got up to 59F & broke a record.  Temps dropping now.  Super cold tomorrow.   Weather man just said no chance of a white Christmas this year.  Of course we won't get any snow.  Keeps the weather guys happy & the. one news lady happy.

    Watched the lighting of the Rockefeller tree tonight & the Jimmy Fallon special.   Both good.  But I still cried.  Just too depressed.  Too many problems I cannot fix. 

    Photos are seasonal ones.  My phone is updated to 18.1 & the photo area sometimes is confusing.  But tonight I figured out something new that is soooo coool.  And time saving for me.  Cool!!!!

Canada Day

The July 1 holiday to commemorate Canada’s Confederation became official in 1879, and was originally called Dominion Day. It marks the day the British North America Act came into effect in 1867, effectively creating the Dominion of Canada out of three British colonies: the United Province of Canada (now the provinces of Ontario and Quebec), plus New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Confederation was an administrative change, not a revolution.

Today's Name Day: Aron, Mirjam

    A better day.  Not as much pain. Sleep not good but it never is.  Weather was too hot.  I saw 102F.  Cinder stayed in while I was in town for supper.  Smart cat.

    I got a nice nap but no cat was near me.  Makes me sad.  Nice to have Cinder cuddle with me.  I was up earlier than usual.  I had things to do.

    JR & I had supper at Jalisco's.  They were a little busy.  Nice to see them all.

    I have trouble with eczema or psoriasis that affects my scalp.  And gets worse.  I bought a combination shampoo/conditioner that is medicated.  So far I feel better.  Last few shampoos I itch right away.  No itching,  Yet.  Fingers crossed.

    Today was my best friend & his partner's first anniversary.  Too far away to get to help celebrate.

    Another friend sent word he is headed out of town for the next month for a health treatment.  I am quite worried for him.  And he will be too far away to go visit.  And maybe he will be too sick to have visitors.  .  Have some spiritual prayers I say.  Hope they help.

    When someone has broken the trust I had in them it is hard to believe anything they say.  I asked someone close to me a simple question & got a simple answer.  Should be no problem.  But I have wondered ever since if the answer was a lie or not.  Hard to trust again.

    Dessert was a Tropical Sno cone again.  Enclosed a photo of them today.  I am addicted to them.

    Photos are a mix of things from my memories.

                            

Dessert place!

Abandoned church in Lost Springs, I think.  At one time there was someone working on it  Anytime I am near, I always new photos.

Took this but do not remember where.

My photo.

Maybe my photo
