Daily Notes. Saturday April 4th. It's not even 10 am and I have. gone thru everything I can think of doing.

 I love the stripes.

I had difficulty falling asleep...for the past week or even two weeks (it seems)...the Full Moon has been shining into my bedroom windows....lighting up the room... and now people are up there..in Space.  Near the Moon. I thought they were going to visit the surface but they are not....just a fly by.

I have been watching CSI: Vegas.  Vintage.   I slightly remember each episode as it evolves. I watched quite a bit of CSI re-runs when I had the Winter off from the Greenhouse Job.  Time to Fill. Acres of Time to Fill....and no one to talk to.  At work I talked to so many people each day....at home...just me and the dog... he got tired of me talking to him when All He Wanted was to watch tv.  Yes.  My dog watched tv. Disliked the commercials more than I did.  And eventually he fell asleep. With his head on my feet so he'd be "notified" if I was getting up.  In case that meant food or a walk.  We walked a lot. Together.

My new desk top calendar has only one headline pasted down.  Lunar Voyage.....April is going to be a Politics Free Zone....this includes MSNBC which I haven't watched in a really really long time.

I am thinking about recording Rugby Games.  I do not understand anything about  Rugby even after watching MANY games...it's more like "hide the ball and call the medics".  Watching makes me want to find the Rom Com in my bookcase with the Rugby Guy staying in the wrong house.   I actually haven't seen that book in a very very long time...Met Her Match.  Might try and find it..read it. Today.

My Taxes have been electronically filed.  It's a miracle of "techno" whatever.   Sigh.... No refund.

Daily Notes for Friday April 3rd. Clouds....Broken Space Toilet.....

 Making.  Not me. Not now....but "before"...... I would have hauled out the felt.  Made the cactus. My straight pins are in a pale cream pear shaped felt object.  Needed to have a more "dense" filling inside...if I find something or one of you has a suggestion--- I'll unsew one side and put something better in.

The little FOX is adorable.  (Not as adorable as Dee's Mice).  I might buy the kit.  

Son says "not enough water" as I am being very forgetful today.  I had the regular amount.  With my vitamins.  BUT we were ready to go shopping so did not finish my one cup of instant decaf coffee. I have a tea bag and hot water here to the right of myself- sugared....sigh.  Plus I have HAD two 8 ounce glasses of water.   A bit of acid reflux as well.  

Growing OLD is really the pits.  

Two more sweet potatoes...will get baked before or after Sunday Pizza while the oven is hot. I have the cheese I like to add to the baked sweet potato..... Oranges are fluctuating in price as the weeks go by. Going higher.  At one point in Time- one dollar each.  I eat one every day.

In the book I am reading two people meet and share dinner (repeatedly) and really like each other.. never run out of things to talk about...I've read the book before...HIS mother doesn't like the woman and that's that......end of story.  Bad Luck Bridesmaid.  No wedding actually takes place if she is a bridesmaid.

Channel 1177 has been serving up some bloody story lines.   Not exactly a replacement for British Soccer but keeps me OFF the NEWS channels.  I will try some Law and Order today.  Daughter has gone back to Landscape Work....Spring Clean Up.  So I need to "amuse" myself.... but there are STILL MANY BOXES up in the ATTIC to sort thru......when Daughter comes back.

Daily Notes for Thursday April 2nd. Almost noon and I haven't eaten breakfast. Liftoff to the Moon!!!

I give up....I'll start typing from the midline.  This computer has often decided to do this for reasons only IT knows. Cloudy this morning and still needing the furnace running.

Well, there we go..it fixed itself.   Kristi Doom....well well.  And the Big Guy sitting in on the Supreme Court.   MSNBC showed a close up of Trumps ankles- swollen WAY over the top edges of his shoes. Tick Tock...time is running out...for his kidneys.  My own ankles do this every so often.

I had one of the baked sweet potatoes yesterday with butter and some Parmesan cheese... tasty.  Tried a few books..nothing was interesting....just not a Reading Week. Perhaps next week.  I did collect a few black and white prints to make a new square....missing "something" to make the other cloth sparkle. Will keep looking.  Channel 1177 has been entertaining.  Today I'll give Missing Without a Trace a chance.....- where they look for people who just disappear.   Hallmark- is a disaster....15 minutes of one movie and I went back to dead bodies on CSI.

No Soccer on USA which is SAD.  I do have Soccer on one of the four digit channels.  But players are like tiny tiny and not all that great to watch..  Furnace is going.... at some point I'll be asked to sign my Income Tax Paperwork.  

Okay...I haven't had breakfast as yet or read the paper or tried the Suduko....So much to do... I have to also put on socks...I turned the heat up as it was feeling cold in here....I feel cold most of the time these days. Spring...?????

 

Daily Notes for Wednesday April First... Oh what Fools we are.........

Let's name him or her... SPOT.

I ruminated on my Life before getting out of bed this morning....mistakes I made.  Ways I could have improved my Life...changes I could have made.  Too late now...and actually now...I am feeling good about my Life.   Wish I had friends.  People to do things with...but almost everyone I knew is my age and moving on to the Retirement they dreamed of.  Elsewhere.

Mainers look forward to Elsewhere.

I relocated the channel with the good shows. 1177.  I'l be watching stuff there.  Until British Soccer resumes.  

Daughter took my overdue books back to the Library and checked out a bag full of my favorites.  I have checked them out MANY times this Winter...... read and repeat.  Sigh.  Most have some sort of complicated love story in the plot.   Often making me cry.

I am finding myself being tugged reluctantly to the Art Supply cabinet.  Wanting to paint or draw or something.... more than likely watercolor.  I have a small collage I found in the Art Cupboard here my the desktop...an index card....I have it where I can look at it when I am on the couch feeling sad.

As to Streaming....The Computer Engineer said there was ZERO possibility of streaming of any sort here. Now or Ever.  The TiVo is a no go...The TV is a non starter.  So ALL of you telling me I could.....I can't.

I can't.
