Today's Name Day:  Elin, Helena

I have known severak Elins & Helens

    Had a good day.  Slept good.  Cooler weather.  Cloudy but no rain here.  Saw lots of friends.  And a nice hug.

    Today is my weekly lunch with friends.  Today we ate at the Öl Stuga.  My friend CW was cooking.  No MM today.  Or ZR.  Good to see my friends.  Good conversation.  And I learned lots of info about some people in the photos I scan.  Nice to know them better.

    Before I went home CW & I had a chance to chat,  I found out that I have known his grandmother since I was a child  & his aunt as an adult.  So I told him how I know them.  Nice we have a connection to each other.  I cannot imagine why he likes me but he does.  I am lucky,  I got a nice hug from him.

    Got to my car & MM showed up with a friend of his I do not know.  Nice to get to meet her.  Maybe a new friend??  She seems really nice.  Tonight he is at a concert near Wichita that is outside in a park.  Perfect night for it,  It is great to see him feeling good & having fun.

    Went home & no cat heard me.  I changed clothes & took a nap.  Kisse showed up when I laid down. No Cinder.  Both are in the living room with me now.  Cinder has been on me several. times for attention,  They are sleeping now,

    The paved road I take to Lindsborg is closed so I have to take a back road to town.  I have picked a nice one that goes past the cemetery whereWillie is buried.  As is MM's father,  And my friend John, and many of my relatives.  I always talk to Willie when I am close to to him & to both John & MM's father.  And my relatives.  I always report to MM that things are OK.  I did not know his father,  Wish  I had.  I was at his burial,  And met his mom there.

    The road I take to town goes by several fields that we farmed.  Makes me sad.  Sometimes cry a bit. Miss Willie & those days.  Too late now.

    I am sick to death of summer. So photos today are all autumn.  They give me peaceful feelings.  And hope.

Today's Name Day:  Bruno

    Had a good day & night.  Nice sleep.  Cinder lay on me often.  Kisse was nearby where she can see me.

    Today I met my thursday lunch group.  We went to the newest place on Main Street called The Sale BARn.  There was no parking place any where on Main!!!  I finally got a place across the street where I could see the door easily.  We got a table right away.  All 4 of us were there.  Fun to see them & we had good conversation.  I tried to talk much less.  I never let anyone else have a chance to talk.  Probably since I an alone so often.  Hope I was better.  I am trying.

    I got the Hangover Burger.  Hamburger, cheese, pickle, & egg.  I did not get the tomato & lettuce.  It was perfect.  Will return for sure.  Next time no side orders.  Just too much food. Bothered my tummy a little.  They do have alcohol.  Did not check to see if they had a rum & coke.  Sure they might.

    Someone tried to charge something to my one credit credit so I needed a new one.  That was my second stop.  Very nice young man helped me.  When my card was ready he walked me to the front door & held it open.  

    Inside the bank is some awesome created furniture made by a local artist.  Cannot sit on it.  I am related to his mother.

    When I got home it was nap time. And had a good nap.  Then I felt better.

    Great weather last night & today.  Had rain overnight.  I got 0.93".  Very nice.  Today stayed cloudy & 73F all day.  Perfect.  Tomorrow will suck again.  Up to almost 100F.  And all next week.  I dread it. Hate heat & summers.  Will stay inside all I can.

    Talked with KN today.  Thanked him for mowing my yard & drive way.  We have a mutual friend who has lost half of his leg.  He is diabetic.  He got his first version of his new leg yesterday.  Hoping he does well with it.

    Photos are a mix.

    

Yummy Swedish candy.  Love it!!
