National Beer Lover's Day

This is honor of Willie.  He loved beer for many years.  I never did.  Gives me a headache.

Today's Name Day: Kevin, Roy

    Another very quiet day.  Very few texts.  Tis my life.

Cinder slept with me off & on all night.  Plus she had control of the chair/blanket.  Kisse slept on my bed often during the night.  I like that.  And she is better about me turning or getting comfy instead of leaving.

    Weather was super nice.  Low in the 50s.  Our high was 75.  If it would just stay this way.  I slept good in the cool air.  Now it is 66 outside.  Feels good outside.  Scant chance of rain this next week as we get drier & drier.  Awful.  I would hate to plant wheat in this dry weather.

    Played with photos again.  Nice to entertain myself, when there is no one to talk to.  Think my great niece played volleyball today.  Hope they did good.  Sharing some I edited & autumn photos I have saved.

                                

I took the flower photo

I took this photo of my front yard

Piece of art on a friend's fence.  I copied a photo of it as they live to far away to get a real photo.  Like it.

Here is the process I go through to create these ones I like in case anyone is curious.

Original photo

Convert to a pencil sketch

Convert to a soft color photo

National Lazy Mom's Day

I might not be a mom any more but I am lazy!!!  I am an expert at it!!

Today's Name Day: Lilian, Lilly

    Not my best day today.  Got no sleep last night.  It was one of those "If I go to sleep now I will be ok" nights. Never happened.  And on top of no sleep, my hip became instensely sore & got a bad headache.  And of course, I have nothing to take for pain.  Why would any one give me a pain med. Be too easy. I stayed home from work.  Tried to nap this afternoon.  A poor nap.  Cinder came in to nap & went out now after supper.

    The company where I get 2 of my meds called.  I was scared I had done something wrong.  But everyone was super nice.  They asked if I got needles for my insulin.  Nope.  Never did.  Well they are at my doctor's in Hutch.  Will get them on monday.  Have to bring my car in to Assaria for some minor adjustment.

    Had an early morning text from MM worried about his looong day of the week!!!  Bartends at 2 bars.  Plus one has a BBQ. meal tonight.  Be fun to go sometime.  Should just go & find a table somewhere in a corner & just people watch while I eat.  He did bring food to me one time after a special meal there.  It was awesome!!  I am not used to being special.  Kind of nice.

    Weather was ok.  In the 80s.  Too warm.  Cooler tomorrow I think,  Does not matter.  I am home alone again.  There was rain last evening.  A town 30 minutes south of me got 2 iches of rain.  We got out usual 0.01 inch.  Never make the news like other towns.  Supposed to be pretty cool tonight  Hope that helps me sleep.

    Did some photo editing.  I enjoy that.  Got a really cool couple of apps that are fun to use

    The names for today mean something special to me.  My mother-in-law was Lillie (Lilly).  Lillian was my step grandmother & several other relatives.  Cool when they mean something to me.

    Catching up on one late night show.  Host is back from his vacation.  Good show.

    Photos tonight are half edited ones & the other half are "sweater weather' themed from a free site.

                            

Cool gazebo.

Painting of Ling Auditorium that was in Lindsborg until it burned down.  Many many years ago.  This was painted by my friend John.  Love it.

All of our Dala häst (dala horses) lined up.
