Daughter is reading the blog posts thesis days and noticed Muffy and found a small picnic basket for Muffy at Goodwill. I can paint the red stripe on the basket (Longaberger) and try and find a square piece of something to make the little red knob on the top. Behind the basket is Jane Austen's last unfinished book- but "finished" by an unknown author. Sanditon. Daughter says I won't be disappointed. I was with the PBS rendition.
I have four farm stand cucumbers and will be making a new jar of refrigerator pickles today if I can harvest enough dill from the herb garden. Too hot to be canning zucchini pickles. I have done it in August before but--I am not doing it this week. And in other years my garden was producing tons of squash. This year? ZERO. Plants are not even making leaves and I gave them organic super compost. So be it. The very healthy looking cucumber plants- flowering and everything- not making any cucumbers.
We are cloudy with zero chances of rain today. Maine is in a drought. No rain in our Futures.
My husband used my computer yesterday to try and download music to his iPhone. Things are not as they should be on the screen. I voiced my strident objections to him doing whatever he was trying to do. He didn't care. I might have to ask my primary care doctor for tranquilizers. She will more likely send me to therapy sessions.
Daughter also found me a 100% copper bowl and I am very very excited to try a few cloth coloring experiments when the Sun returns. I will collect rainwater if it rains- otherwise I will use regular water.
