Weather has warmed up a bit here. Missed rain the other nite. Of course. Chance again tonite and tomorrow. Ha. I do not believe it. Was in Wichita today with howling winds. Nothing here at home. Tomorrow we will get high winds. They are never wrong about winds or heat. Ever.
We got our furnace fixed on monday very early. Nice to have heat again. Not too cold during the day, but nites are cold.
Wednesday I met with 4 classmates in Salina at Moka’s for lunch and coffee. We talked for 4 hours. Such fun!! And what memories. Great times. And love Moka’s. Awesome place! Certainly feels one is anywhere but Kansas!
Today I went with Dirk and Naomi to the Crown Uptown Theater in Wichita. It is a dinner theatre. The play was Steel Magnolias so the meal was Southern food. We had sallad, gumbo soup, mac ‘n cheese, rice and beans, fish, and the best fried chicken I have ever had. For dessert I had chocolate cake with chocolate sauce over it. It was sinful.
After the play we drove to Bradley Fair to check out a chocolate place we all have looked at. It is called Cocoa Dolce. OMG!! Check their website!! Never seen so much chocolate. And all sorts of drinks. Will be my new go-to place to relax when in the city.
So nice to have 2 good days. And with people who are so dear to me and who make my life great. I had a ‘friend’ — known her all my life — who truly had turned into someone who made me feel so bad inside. She got in a snit and refused to spend time with me. I have made the decision to cut her completely out of my life. I feel 1000% better. My real friends are the ones I have been with the last 2 days. And the ones I see every sunday. Mutual love and support, no drama, no games. Life is too short to put up with crap from anyone.
I got such a surprise today. My friend Lan rang me on my mobile phone —- all the way from India!!! He has been there for 4 weeks and gets home next week. How great to hear his voice. We were both very close to John. And I think we are both mourning his dying and as a result we have grown a bit apart. No more. When he gets home, we will grow close again. What a pleasant surprise.
With John on my mind, I stopped at the Smoky Hill Cemetery to visit him. Gives me peace. I drive by there almost daily and always talk to him then. I will never quit missing him in my life.
We lost all our cats a year or so ago. Think we had a bobcat here. We have now seen a couple of orange cats hanging around and they come to the house to eat the cat food I put out. One looks older and looks younger. Now there is a grey cat with long hair. I hope it is a female. Huge and fluffy. Wish it would get tame. Got a photo the other day. Keeps the mouse population down.

Wow … what a great time you had! Good for you!
Nothing could be more true than the part about cutting out crap like that of our lives. You remember, I had my part of that too, two years ago. I’m still thankful I did something about it. The old me, would have put up with it for YEARS.
I remember your cats!!! So you lost them all?! Hope this fluffy one stays around now..
Kramisar!
I do remember. And I did put up with her crap for too many years. But been friends since we were 16. hard to stop. But I think it is over now. Even if she contacts me, I think I am going to be too busy all the time. I just feel better with out her games.
Lost all cats but one mean ole orange tom. Don’t think the the orange ones now are him. I love the looks of the grey one. Maybe this summer just by sitting outside, it will get brave.
What a fun couple of days. So nice!!! Good for the soul!
