Dailey Note on Sunday August 3rd.... 82 and /sunshine

Another index card.....I color them while watching extremely boring and repetitive tv.

1. At some POINT I will return to hand sewing strips to each other.  But colored markers and index cards are the only speed I am moving at right now (it's August).  That and love stories taking place 830 years in the past..sans deodorant, toothpaste.......and underwear.   I recall loving these books- and I guess I'll admit to STILL loving them. Lynn Kurland.  I wonder if she is still writing?????

2. My Son doesn't believe I am eating Greek Yogurt with 10 grams of protein per serving. I showed him the carton and he still says no.  I also eat more than the listed amount of a serving.

3. I read all the labels on the canned beans in my pantry...three servings per can- at 7 grams protein each. I just have to figure out how to eat them.....I mean on a salad?  I could make black bean burgers...but do I want to?  Any ideas?  Soup is a good idea but not in August.  Black Bean Bisque is a favorite of mine. 

4. He thinks I will be less dizzy and more "sure footed" eating high protein foods.  I am dizzy.  I will admit to that.  I weave a bit...when walking.  Or getting up to walk.  And I am NOT eager to fall and hit my head on something. (like my husband did).... while walking an a DESERTED street (my own) because I already know I can't get back up off the ground.. (and there are ants on the pavement- lots of them)...I still have half a book to finish reading. A cane would not help me get up but I plan to start takin gone along..   My Life gets crappier as the weeks go by.........

5.  Lunch this week with a former co-worker (Greenhouse). Monday...Tomorrow...Wild Oats. That has outdoor patio seating....or inside AC seating but very noisy......food is great....and desserts even better.

6.  Wednesday, my hair gets cut.

7. I bought tomatoes and bacon and soft bread for BLT's....And we could possibly be having Chinese Take Out.  Which would be AMAZING!!!!!   I ran out of ice cream bars.....

8. My Library got ME a copy of a Maine artist's book--he painted rocks- on paper in the 1960's...and I collect rocks like he did....and might collect more and start doing watercolors of them...he used oil paints. Fiore.  PBS had a hour show on his work here in Maine....I watch it quite often.  It's something I think I SHOULD have done when I was in college.... paint. Even though I had absolutely NO money to buy paint or paper. He also played the piano- beautifully.  I watch the recorded PBS show often........sometimes just the end to hear him play the piano.    The things one falls in love with....strange huh????

9. And sometimes too late.
