Daily Notes. Almost hit 100 degrees here in Maine. 81 and muggy and damp early this morning.

 1.I have a very itchy, wet spot on the right side of my jaw....I have it covered with a bandaid to keep myself from touching it....getting it infected.  It's also got a special ointment on it.

2. I finished a book, watched tv commentators discuss the "news", watched the end of a soccer game, sorted out my underwear drawer and have a bag full of black athletic wear to offer to daughter and if she says no to take to Goodwill.  Found two more white short sleeved LLBean Camp shirts....Fantastic!!!!- They were under a bunch of stuff I never wear at the bottom of a closet- on the floor actually..  I am in no shape to be pulling on tight black sporty under garments. Just thinking about it exhausts me. Square cotton camp shirts for the win.

3. Up top is one of my index cards- I make a line drawing and then...do nothing...later I color them in. Not all the way as I lose interest in the coloring pretty darn fast....why I like painting...it's faster.  I also stop before I ruin the thing........I'm best at the very start and love that lower right area quite a bit..  After the book and during a news program--I drew designs on a few more cards.    The top and bottom brown areas are the table they sit on.

4. If Son goes out for lunch today- might not as he went out yesterday-----I'll ask for ice cream.  Or frozen yogurt bars.  Or those plastic tubes of fruity ice pops  Even though I only like two of the eight colors in the package...they all disappear.....

5. So hot yesterday I hauled hose and watered the stuff that had been weeded by M.  Mostly the three hydrangea that are making a GREAT EFFORT to produce flowers for the very first time. I wore myself out and spent the remainder of the afternoon recovering.  I do not like HEAT. 

 AND it occurred to me......we STILL have July and August......UGH.  I had forgotten those two months.

6. I have the center square sewn and the edging strips ready to sew around the edges of A square.  Might actually be the best one of all of them.......that's what happens when you make multiples...one of them is actually worth the effort.  Perhaps today I will talk myself into hand sewing one strip to one side.....while watching World Cup Soccer.
