This has been a quiet day on the prairie. I went to Cottonwood Falls and voted this morning. I had a short visit with the Election Clerk. I thanked her for her service and she shared with me a bit about what she has to go through with some election denier voters. She has my sympathy and compassion. Not sure why people have to treat her so badly sometimes and not sure why people think the elections are not fair and safe.
I am exhausted. I finally got some sleep in two parts last night but feel utterly exhausted today. I laid down this afternoon to take a nap but couldn’t fall asleep. It was good to lay down and rest though.
I made one of two appointments that needed to be made. Maybe tomorrow I can make the second one. The first one was more important so am grateful it has been made.
Today has been cloudy and windy and a bit chilly. It is in the lower 60’s but doesn’t feel that warm outside. I turned the fireplace on to try to warm up a bit. I have felt cold all day.
Tomorrow I have to go to Emporia in the afternoon to have my TB test checked. So far it is just a small looking bruise so thinking it will be negative. I had a reaction to one years ago that was negative but something in the shot caused an allergic reaction on my skin. Grateful that didn’t happen this time.
Grateful for a quiet day, grateful for the privilege of voting, and grateful I can rest as needed.
