Daily Notes- Wednesday, May 14th. Sunshine and 60 degrees.


 I think this image is from the Library..  on one day a month they have an "exchange" of items like this. I was going to go but learned it's more of a chat group for old men. I don't need to be doing that.

Soccer today.  At 2:30.  And as a coming attraction PBS has something about Bees.  WOW.

I did a load of wash yesterday and folded and put the clean stuff away (two check marks in the well done box).  The collar on one of my work shirts (men's) was frayed into a hole so I mended that....Used the backside of a strip of blue cloth...not an exact match but good enough. Shirt also has some stains on it...the title "work shirt" is fitting.

I had planned to hand sew another square.....but mended instead. While watching Bones season two.

Work is being done at the end of the street (lunch buddy house). Getting a new roof.  All the guys working speak Spanish and no English.  This is Maine.  They traveled a long way to a very strange State for work. I think most workers working here in Maine are from "somewhere else" as Maine is packed tight with Old  White People.  The young ones leave as soon as they can. I can hear them screaming RUN!!!!! Because they can't AFFORD to LIVE Here. The Old Ones are on waiting lists for Senior Living being taken care of by people from "somewhere else" who might speak English. At least that is how it looks to me......

I HATED living here for the first 10 to 20 years......now I like it...  or I have been lulled into thinking I like it.  That's some sort of thing that happens.........mind controlling so they retain tax payers.

Lunch Buddy told me about squirrels that lived in HER Chimney....does NOT end well.  I need to call some chimney people...have a heavy duty screen put on the chimney opening........She didn't have glass doors covering the fireplace-- I do__
