Blogg 17/06/2012 Busy times, rain, turning hot…

 

 

Weather has been nice but it is ending. We had 2.5” of rain the last 2 days. Today was 90s and humid. Tomorrow is to be over 100. Ick.

 

I worked extra time on saturday. Lindsborg celebrated Midsommarsdag that day. We were supposed to have dancing on our front lawn, but they got moved elsewhere. We had lots of people come in though. The celebration used to be in one of our parks. And they are both HOT with no air moving even if there is a breeze. And it cost to get in. This year the celebration was downtown. It was free. There were booths and people showing how to do things like make Swedish pancakes. I heard that the crowd was good and many people were going in the shops. Before the downtown was totally left out. I think it was well done and a success.

 

After work I went to Elly’s for her birthday celebration. She had a great crowd. I think 60 showed up. She had it on her deck and yard.

 

Today was Father’s Day here in the US. It was just going to be Willie & I. No family celebration. Sally invited us to join there celebration at the Brookville Hotel for chicken. A nice gathering. We enjoyed it. It must be hard for Willie though. There are those who think he could not care less about being remembered for holidays, etc. but they are wrong. He has talked to me about how much it hurts. Wish I could fix things. When I try, I fail. Tonite I am sooo anxious. Will have to take a pill soon.

 

Late this afternoon there was a Midsummer church service at Bethany Lutheran Church. It is all in Swedish. Had a nice crowd. And we sang at least 3 of my fave Swedish hymns. I loved it. My singing Swedish is my best Swedish.

Blogg 30/04/2012 My weekend in photos…

 

Saturday was the Artist’s Open house in Lindsborg at the Red Barn Studio and 10 other studios in town. I worked from 10am till 530pm.

 


My granddaughter Ashley, her boyfriend Zach, her mom Kim, and her friend Liz stopped to see me. Prom nite. They wanted me to see her all dressed up and to get photos of us together. She looked so beautiful and grown up. I almost cried!

 


Too tired to cook so Arby’s for our evening meal.

 


Sunday Elly and I went to Abilene to eat at the Brookville Hotel. They serve family style fried chicken dinners. Too die for.

After eating we drove around Abilene looking at some old homes. Then we took all back roads to Lindsborg.


 

Back in Lindsborg, Elly and I went to the White Peacock and sat outside in their courtyard. Heaven on earth!!! Just perfect!

 


And along the way, I took time to smell the roses. Well, the peonies anyway!
