Daily Notes for August 8th. sunshine and mild temps here in Maine. So Far.

Grocery and Library went well.    I got some books....  some toothpaste, bread, cheese and pickles. etc.

I'm actually tired...or depressed.....  They seem the same to me these days... growing old is pretty boring. I did manage to pull some weeds growing around the new generator....my car got inspected (Son took it in), oil change, I think.   My containers outside are being visited by many varieties of insects.  The pink flowers are the most popular... a new bank statement.... all just dull stuff.

1.  I plan to make myself a bowl of Greek Yogurt, Cherries (if they haven't all gone bad), and Bran Buds. I should make and eat the BLT's I was supposed to eat last week later this afternoon ..... or instead of the yogurt....it all seems like too much to do.  I might just eat peanut butter out of the jar.

2. Picked up two more of the Medieval Books from other Libraries and my neighbor has the book no library has in her Amazon Basket.  There are seventeen books...I have to count and see how many I own.  The one in the Amazon Basket is not available at any Library in Maine..   Would be a delightful gift to myself to own all 17 of them. I put a few books in the book bag-  The Boardwalk Book Shop was one of them, Connie. Thank you for reminding me...that other book you suggested- no one had it in the system.

3. The Frozen Yogurt Bars I like were back in the freezer case at the store (they had been missing for a few weeks)...I asked my Son if it was okay to get two boxes.....it's almost like I'm buying drugs on a dark street corner.......it's frozen yogurt.

4.  I could actually get my own Amazon Basket.... but I have security issues...well, I have those kind of issues regarding EVERYTHING.  

5. The mail truck stopped at our box---- possibly another invite to a River Cruise Vacation. I don't have a passport.

That's about it for today...I filled the watering bottles with the hose this morning and watered the containers.  I should eat something before doing the Daily Walk...I walked faster yesterday...it felt good.  but I carry my iPhone in case I trip and fall ...and can't get up...I could be on the ground for hours since the street has little to no traffic.  And there are lots of ants...so it would AWFUL.
