09 september, 2022 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    Well, got the date wrong yesterday.  Well, duh!!

    I added a bit to the name of my blog.

    Good day in the day but last night was not good.  I went to bed & all was well until I decided to turn over.  My hip hurt more than usual &  I could barely move.  What brought that on?  I hurt all night but today have been ok.

    Went to town early to get to the bank before it closed.  Then JR & I went to eat early since there was to be lots of activity on Main Street.  It was not too busy by the time we left.  JR stayed on Main Street to take photos of the musicians & art.

    There is a cloud to the west.  Rain?  There is a small storm west of here.  May not get here.  I am not hopeful yet.

    Our weather was ok.  Our temps were 67F & 96F.  Did not feel too bad outside.  Cinder here all day.  Nice to get a little love when I went out.  And she & Nico have a sweet love relationship.  He checks on her before anything else.  Sweet.

    Last night my friend from NY called.  We had a nice visit.  I miss her.  I found out there is a train that goes near her & 3 hotels.  Road trip??  That would be fun if we can work it out.

    The sunflowers are just exploding everywhere here!  Fun to drive to town.  I need to take some back roads with my camera.

    Photos are of prairie things today.

    Not a good day & little sleep.  Will not talk about it.

    Since I was awake a lot last night, I went through my Instagram & cleaned house.  I followed things because they were in town or someone I know followed them, & whatever.  All gone now.  And 2 men I followed I do not like. They are gone.

    The last couple of weeks I have been inundated with tens of followers.  And I have not published anything.  And most of them are private accounts.  They are almost all military, divorced or widowed, born in the US but now live in a third world country.  That happens on FB also.  NOT my kind of guy in any way.  And what are they hiding in a private account?  I usually delete those.  Sometimes they want more than talk & photos.  I feel better!!

    I did a little house cleaning on FB too.  Did not delete anyone.  I can set them where they cannot see what I post.  And many just want to push religion ---- their religion ---- down my throat.  No one bothers to ask what I believe.  I do not like that.

    I was going to have JR come out to help me carry trash out for pick up tomorrow.  But with little sleep I told him to stay home.  And my back is back to normal, or as close to normal as it gets.  I filled both bins without trouble.  Nothing heavy went out.  I have not attempted to move my metal shelves again.  Do not want that much pain again!!

    Our weather is perfect. 😍 It was in the 70s last night & mostly 70s today with a nice breeze.  And rain is forecast.  By the end of next weekend we could have 3-5 inches of rain.  Wow!  And a couple of days with highs in the 70s.  Won't last, of course. 😓

    I counted the hot days we have had.  In the last 2 months there were 11 days over 90 & 7 days over 100.  Each one was a miserable day.

    Photos today are a mix of things I have taken.

    Will skip most of my Covid feelings.  I wish I felt better.  Felt sick all day but now after supper I am better.  Most do not care how I feel so they will be glad not to read about it.  The ones who do text me.  Well, most who care.  Tomorrow I get some Covid tests to check.  I am maybe just fighting it off.

    Another )-; hot day.  Got up to 97F.  Humidity was lower.  But there is a strong breeze.  Helps some.  But the worst is coming.

    Last night had good moments but no sleep until 8am.  Kisse was in bed twice for extended petting time.  Going out on the porch involved intensive petting with Cinder.  Good to be loved if only by cats!!

    We are in a heat advisory for 3 days.  I hate summers in Kansas.  Miserable.  Little chance of rain then a little cooler ---- mid to low 90s instead of 100 or more.

    No fireworks for me today.  Too hot & I am too sickly.  No fireworks in my town.  Miss watching kids do their fireworks.  Those days are gone.  Kinda sad.

    I saw my favorite bbq place was open today until 4pm.  I had planned to drive in & get some bbq beef.  If I had felt better I would have.  Maybe I feel bad because of no sleep?  I can hope.

    Photos today are ones I have edited.  The flowers are ones I have taken in the past.
