Today's Name Day:  David, Able

Willie's best friend was David.  I never see him.  Had a friend whose last name was Able.

    Not a bad day.  Ignored by the usual people.  No surprise.  Have emailed JL several times.  Cancelled supper with a short message from JR.  Not much else.  Some texting with a Mexican friend since it is her daughter's birthday.  Sweet friends.

    It is cold today & supposedly some breezes.  But I feel nothing here.  We have a strong wind break on the north side of our house.  I sat outside for a while sorting mail.  It felt cold.  Not much mail.  Mostly cat food.  They were out.

    My phone continues to be a mess.  Have purchased something that may help.  Or not.  Driving me crazy.

    I am tired of this year & ready for a new one.  Not felt good since my big fall earlier.  Really upset my life.  I continue to be scared.  No bueno.  And tired of all the tiresome family & friend fun others get to have.  I have neither or a support group.  Just me.

    Worked on genealogy & got caught up.  One guy was totally wrong about people.  Should have ignored him.  My one Swedish family I spent time with when there posted many photos.  So nice to see them.  Wish they kept in touch better.  I should also.

     On the news they just said that 40% of older people feel lonely.  No shit.  Not much choice when there is no one for me.  Probably should have went out to eat tonite.  Maybe I would feel better.  Maybe.  But those who should care or used to care no longer do.  😿

    New Years will be quiet.  Just need to decide what jammies to wear in my living room!!! 😁

    Hope TV is ok tonight.  Last night was good.  Latin Music show.

    Photos are snowy.

Today's Name Day:  Linn, Linnea

I have known a couple of Linns.  One was a neighbour when I was a child.  He was murdered when in college.  Sad.  I have a cousin whose name is Linnea.  She turns 9 years old tomorrow.  I wrote her mom to tell her about her Name Day.  She was excited!

    Today was a bit better but not good.  My blood sugar is still not doing ok.  I sent a message to my doctor.  Hope she has some ideas what to do.

    I  cancelled all of today.  Supposed to have lunch out & a historical board meeting.  I sent an email to one of those in charge of the board but heard nothing back.  No surprise.  I also let LL know also.  I doubt I make it to work tomorrow.

    Another hot day.  I stayed inside mostly.  Tomorrow is really hot!!  The highest temp in history here for tomorrow is 101!!  We had no chance of breaking that record!!  Whew!!!!  That was set in the 1940s.  We will be over 90 though.

    I did see KN in is largest tractor drive by my house pullling a huge piece of farming equipment.  He was followed by his son CN in a 4 wheeler.

    Photos today are more flowers.  I took all of them.

Today’s Name Day: Karl, Karla

     

    Last day posting here.  Laptop comes home on Thursday.  I cannot wait!!!

    Stayed too warm last night.  Had to turn the heat down.  Way down today.  Way too warm.  House is ok at 74F now.

    I woke up feeling sick.  Did not last long.  Think it is nerves about tomorrow laser procedure..  Wish it was over,  Set my alarm for 5am.  No bueno.  Rest of the day was ok.  Little worse now but sure it is nerves.

    I managed to take a little nap.  I doubt I sleep tonight.  Dang.  During my nap I had several phone calls all about my laptop.

    Hard to watch the news seeing our country & the harming of hard working people.  And trying to hurt people on Medicaid, grants, etc.  I am ashamed of us.  How can anyone hurt people who are needy & sick.  Ashamed. 😞

    I need  to go get the mail.  Too lazy to go,  But will soon.  At least it is warm outside.

    Rain starts tomorrow evening.  Need rain so desperately.  Most of Kansas still hurting.

    My brother’s photos are getting arranged for his show that starts on Friday.  He talks on Sunday.  Be fun to be there.

    Photos now.
