Used a new app to create this graphic.  It has cool texting fonts.

Today's Name Day:  Alexandra,  Sandra

Had a friend Sandra I went to school with & we were car hops together at A&W in Lindsborg.

    Another quiet, alone day.  Getting used to it.  At least the weather felt cooler.  It wasn't cooler but no sun helped.  Plus I felt chilly overnight.  Felt good to bundle up under covers.

    Had a long email from JL.  That was about it.  I give up.  Do I have to beg for any slight attention??  I tried. yesterday but only got my comments being liked not truly answered.

    Last night JS & I had a video chat for almost an hour.  He had not taken his pill that helps him sleep yet.  He always has 2 cats on his bed near him.  Cinder laid on me & we had to rub noses.  More than once.  He loved watching her!!  What a sweet baby.  We had a nice visit.  Need his friendship.  Wish he was here.

    We had super high winds in Kansas today.  I think ours was around 40mph.  But in the SW part of the state winds were much higher.  Around 50 - 60mph.  And then fires started.  They had to evacuate people as the fires were moving fast towards their homes..

    Cinder followed me to the kitchen for her lunch treat when I fixed my lunch.  Then she disappeared.  She found a comfy place to nap somewhere.  BUT.  She never showed up again.  She usually follows Kisse & I to the bedroom to nap.  No Cinder.  Could not see her anywhere.  I got worried.  I finally started calling her.  All over the house.  No Cinder.  She finally showed up.  What a relief.  Not sure where she napped.  Sometimes she sleeps on the floor near the TV.  Or she hides in the kitchen.  Now she is back.  And we cuddled for a while.  I even put out extra food that has been ignored.

    I have decided not to work for MH this friday.  I just do not feel good enough to work an extra day.  Tired & sore.

    Saw I just got some mail.  A box no doubt.  Hate to go out to sort through the mail in the dark,  But I am so glad I went out to check.  I had preordered a book from a cool guy I follow on Threads.  And it came today!!  I am excited to get it.  Now for time to read it!!!  And improve me.

    Heavy, heavy snow in Italy Olympics.  Cancelled events yesterday.  Fun to see snow even if not here.

    Just got a text from MM.  Pleasantly surprised.

    Photos are a mix.  I had too many last night so I only used half & saved some for tonight.  Love the art drawing pictures.  I am addicted to them.  One site has tons that can be shared.

 

Always be kind!

True words!!!

The kids & me.  The barn is my neighbour's.  I edited it.

AI me.

                                                   

  

09/2024 Torsdag the12th - Wandering & Capturing Moments

 

Today is celebrating me being awake all night.  And what I did.

Today's  Name Day: Åsa, Åslög

    Sleep would be awesome.  Awake all night.  I hate to take a pill when I am groggy as it is, but I night have to.  I felt sleepy but no matter how  quietly I laid sleep never came.  I finally gave up & got up.  I managed a 2.5 hour nap after lunch.

    Cinder came in at naptime.  She likes to nap in here.  And stayed in long after I woke up.  I like having her in here.

    Weather was ok,  Our low was 60 & our high was 87.  Plus low humidity.  Have a slight chance of showers sunday night,  Ha.  Not holding my breath.

    I have had a foam mattress topper on my bed that became twisted & folded.  Very uncomfortable.  I ordered a futon floor mattress that I just put on my present mattress.  A flat bed!!!  Heaven!!  But too much work.  Yikes!!  But it was worth it.  Would have been nice to have someone to help but when you live alone there are no helpers in the house.  I hate to bother anyone.  They have more important things to do than anything I need,

    My water meter got accidently broken after my water leak was fixed. A worker came here & was beyond pissy.  He almost accused me & my fixer that we broke it on purpose.  He was unpleasant.  I will not answer the door for him again.  He said he would have to put in a new meter.  But that is his job.  His attitude really has bothered me.  I started to cry today over him.  What a jerk.  Needs to learn how to state the. facts with respect & no accusations.  We are decent people who would not do anything like he accused me of doing.

    Every day I have things I want to do but never can.  Too weak.  Too much pain.  Really bothers me.

    I got a photo of one great grandson & my grand puppy.  Made my day.

    I have a sort of short video chat with JS.  He had built a nice sleeping box for his 2 cats.  But they prefer a cardboard box!! Of course.  They were both sitting in it together but I missed that photo.  But did get photos of them.

    How surprised I am. I am wanting something to eat that is not from my freezer. A friend from out of state said he would find someone to call here to bring me a burger & fries, A friend here I have not met offered to go get me something to eat. They renewed my belief in people again. But I was already cooking so maybe another day. They warmed my heart!!! 💗

    Hoping tomorrow is better for me.  Maybe I should order some groceries & drive to pick them up.  Maybe try Lindsborg again.  Or maybe wait another day.

    Photos are what I did all night.
