Photo of the Lindsborg High School basketball team in March 11, 1966 when we won the state tourny in Emporia KS.  The tall young man in the back row made the  winning goal just as the game ended.  I was there!!!

Today's Name Day:  Edvin, Egon

    Day did not start good.  Awake all night & got up to the sofa at 6am.  Fell asleep around 7am.  Slept until 12noon.  Napped with my kits in the bedroom from 1pm till 4pm. 

    Started my day around 730am with a photo of MM & AM.  Great way to start my day.

    Less pain today & tonight my knee is painfree.

    Got a text from my grandson CF.  I got really worried about what he was saying,  I sent a long response,  Not going to explain what he or I wrote.  Later he phoned me.  We had a good chat.  I am truly worried about him.  He has some big changes coming in his life.  Hope it all works out.  Adding him to my prayer list again.

    Talked on the phone to MM & to JR.  Things to discuss & share.

    Thank goodness we did not reach 85 again today.  Hate summer.  Even had a fly in my house.  Great.  Starting early.  Hate bugs.  Today we were 72 & 36.  Big nice change.  This weekend a strong front is coming here.  We won't get anything but strong winds.  No rain.  It goes north & east.  We always lose out. 😞

    Had a good supper.  Pancakes & orange juice.  Good to have something different.  Cinder is licking up my leftover syrup & butter.  Weird cat!!

    No cattle or llamas today.  Maybe I missed them.

    Photos are a mix..

National Animal Crackers Day 

Today's Name Day: Valdemar, Volmar

    A day of rest after a no sleep night.  I had less pain but no sleep.  Cinder abandoned me too.  )-;  I got thirsty in middle of the night.  So I got up for a snack ---- Sprite, bbq chips, & a cookie.  Odd for me.  I never do that.

    Now that the front is here I have less pain & can walk better.  Hope it lasts a few days.

    Our high for the day was 71 that was at 1AM!!!!!  Got up today & the house was 67F.  Yikes!!!  Dang it was cold.  Turning on the heat sure felt good.  Cinder went out but did not last too long.  Came back in for a long afternoon nap inside.  There was rain last night all around us but never here.  Chance of rain next week.  So they say.  The drought report this week is we are in a severe dry area.  Awful.

    Sunny now & in the 50s.  About the same for tomorrow but really cold over the weekend with maybe even some frost.  Great warm clothing time!!

    Fun to watch the cows & calves out my living room window.  Calf just went running by!!!  Sweet!!

    Made a new friend today.  Always makes me nervous & fearing rejection.  But she answered right away!!!  I am glad.  Hope we can meet sometime soon.  She is engaged to a  very good friend.

    I watched Billy Joel special this week.  It was delayed by around 30 minutes thanks to sports.  The network ended the show early stopping the show early just as he was ready to sing one of his fave songs.  People were furious.  They are now reshowing it completely tomorrow evening.  Probably won't watch but who knows.

    Photos are a few old ones I have taken & some I just like.

                                

Love this kind of stove.  Always wanted one.  Common in Sweden.

   Scenes from my town.  White flowers in my yard.

This one & the next one from my yard.
