Daily Notes- April Fools Day- and I woke up to NO SNOW!!!!!!!! It's all grass out there.

Dansk was offering me this today.

I would actually love to have the container and the flowers....right here.

And my Lawn Guy sent an email this morning asking if I wanted MULCH on my front garden beds...(which were rigorously weeded last Spring by Megan.....and are now bare dirt.).   I said YES!!!! I think Megan might have suggested mulch to him..  It's so Fun to type "My Lawn Guy".  I recall seeing that in books all the time- "I gotta guy...to do whatever".   I gotta guy...to cut grass and haul mulch.  Yippee.

I also did some awkward mending on my new to me Daily Pants.... I needed an inch more room at the waist.. (remember I mentioned the pants cost 25 cents for a reason).. So- the sewing machine.....I sat for a bit wondering how to turn it on (it's ben a long time)....figured that out....then wondered about changing the needle IF it broke.  My pants are"repaired"  - no one will see the back of pants as I usually have on a long shirt of something.....but now the waist button doesn't pull.  Everything feels comfy.  Really quite wonderful.  Mulch and Pants. 

We had a power outage...at some point... The microwave and fridge were beeping.  The furnace is now trying to get the house up to 64 degrees.

I am reading a book which was printed to make it easier for someone with dyslexia to read the book. It is

 also making it easier for these 78 year old eyes to read the book.    Like this but not this much space 

between the lines.

I learn something new a couple times a week...and it's lovely.  The book is Summer Reading by Jenn McKinlay.  It's a follow up book to Love At First Book (which I checked out at the library).  A Librarian is hired to help ghost write a final book in a very very popular series.  The Librarian has a best friend in Florida and this book is about her. I am getting used to the print size and the wider spacing between lines. I have another of her books in the bookcase...to read after this one

Well, I straightened out the fridge and now I have to see about the microwave.....the processes after a power outage.  I sort of thought the whole house generator had put an end to that but....guess not.
