I slept well last night and was up at 5AM as usual and changed my bed and washed my sheets. They are in the dryer now. I dressed and got myself ready for the day.
About 9:30AM or 10:00AM, I will drive down to Bartlesville to visit with Nancy and take her to lunch and perhaps a drive to get her out of assisted living for awhile. We may go back to Copan to have lunch. We have tried that two weeks in a row but I always got distracted and we ended up Eggbert's at Caney so she could see folks she knew. I think her mother's house sold because the "For Sale"sign was down when I checked Saturday. Either that or they took it off the market.
Now it's 6:01AM and I will go check on the cats and see the weather forecast.
Both cats were out there to eat and were very glad to get their food and ate their fill. I will leave the cat food out there for Scruff. She usually comes back to it again fter what she has already eaten settles.
The weather forecast was coming on TV just as I got back in the house.
Today is forecast to be 98 degrees and sunny, Tuesday is to be108 degrees and sunny, Wednesday's is to be 103 degrees and partly cloudy,Thursday 15 degrees and partly cloudy, Friday 103 degrees and partly cloudy, Saturday 106 degrees and sunny and Sunday 108 degrees and sunny. What a hot week this will be and it's only July!
It's 7:46AM now.
It's a little after 9:00AM now and I am going to go on down to Bartlesville. I want to wash my car and vacuum it out at Mr.Clean before I go to see Nancy.
The car wash was closed. I don't know what the problem was.
I have been reading another book to pass the time. I will work on it more what I get back home this afternoon.
More Even Later....
I visited with Nancy awhile and then she and I went to Bartlesville's Eggbert's for lunch. We then took a long drive to get her out of assisted care. I took her back at 2:00PM.
As I was leaving, I discovered my hearing aid was gone. I went back in and searched the area where I took the face mask off but I could not find it. I was heartsick because I knew I could not replace it. When I got home I called the Green Country Village Assisted Living and asked them to let me know if someone turned it in. She told me someone had turned it into the lost and found. It was on some of the brown carpet in the hall and blended right in with the carpet since it was brown too. I told the woman at the desk I would come right back down to get it and I did. I knew I could not afford to buy another one. It's the only one I have and I really need another one but there is no way I could buy one. Between the bumper for my car and the crown I had to have after I broke that tooth at Thanksgiving, I have no savings left. So I drove back down to pick it up. I stopped at Miller Brothers and bought gas again. I just got back home at 3:13PM.
More later...
I watered all the flowers again this evening. It will be a miracle if they live.
It's 6:27PM now and in about 30 minutes, I will take my bath and read some more. There's nothing on TV I am interested in watching. I plan to go to bed sometime between 9:00PM and10:00PM. It depends on how interested I am in the book.
I did look up the name of my great great grandmother in My Story. I found her first name on a copy of the Cherokee rolls in a library at Woolaroc. It is Mary Fly. I knew her last name was Fly but couldn't remember what her first name was until I found it in that record book. She was the only Fly on record. My grandmother told me all about her trek from Florida during the trail of tears. She was one of the lucky ones who lived to tell the tale. They walked all the way. The white folks who brought them there rode horses and rode in wagons. Thousands died on the way.
Melissa had asked me about it at church camp. She used to work at the Cherokee hospital in Nowata. She said if I could find the number on my great great grandmothers registration, I and my family could have free health care.
More later..I am going to take my bath. It is shortly after 7:00PM. Then I will go back to my book until bedtime.

Whew! Hearing aids are tricky with those masks. So I can use my stethoscope, I had a one-inch chain made at a mall's jewelry kiosk. Each end has a lobsterclaw-type clasp. One goes on the ear hook of my over-the-ear hearing aid, and the other on the temple piece of my thin wire eyeglasses. The special made little chain cost about $40 but it's saved my hearing aid from hitting the floor many times.
Hearing aid dispensers also have little fishing line looking things with a sliding loop on each end to do the same thing. They were stiffer than my chain method, since hearing aids are so much lighter now.
Of course, with masks, they get themselves tangled up sometimes, but at least my hearing aid is safe. They used to have hearing aid insurance, but you have to get it when you buy a new aid. If you aids are totally in the ear canal, you'd have to glue a chain end to it.
Good Luck, Linda in Kansas
So glad you found it. A few weeks ago while we walked, Laura found a wallet in the road. She took it to the office. The dead person said a man had been there asking about it. They were goin*to call him. I know he was glad Laura found it and turned it in.
