Daily Notes- August 8
Ninety plus degrees here in Maine. Daily rain. Never know when it's coming. Humidity so high your clothing is damp after 5 to 10 minute out watering the Grow Boxes.
I removed leaves from the tomato plants. Unnecessary leaves (now compost). So the tomatoes could get direct sun. Two zucchini this morning and one pale pink/green tomato found on the driveway. Chipmunks. But no bite marks so I brought it into the vestibule (what an old fashioned word) between the house and garage to finish ripening in the vestibule heat.
G wanted to see the new Mission Impossible movie so we went to the 4pm showing. The over 65 crowd was represented in the dozen or so people in the theater. G enjoyed the movie. I thought it was too long, too repetitive and way too many scenes on the edge of very tall things giving me vertigo. We exited into a pretty steady rain. 100% humidity. Summer traffic.
At home we sorted out dinner. I made myself some thin sliced zucchini pan fried to crispy with some dill sprinkled on at the finish. I had it with a small portion of pasta. I plan to have the exact meal again today. It was that good.
I stitched and stitched on a small cloth. At the end it was so completely awful I cut it into two and then into the compost bucket. Nothing to salvage. Wasted fabric and thread. I was heart-sick.
I can't find my way.
Today I will machine stitch more squares--or start a new square. Be content with that.
I drew two more chairs yesterday between watering plants, laundry and the movie. It was something.
