Daily Notes- October 23


Image of a soap bubble.  Full Moon?

So many images on the internet of cloth with a full moon.  Jude from Spirit Cloth.  And tonight the Moon will be 100% full.  We might have cloud cover.  Last night the moon was riding high over the trees with no clouds.  A beautiful thing.

One visit of family past and the next arriving on Monday.  Our California boy wondering how cold it's going to be here.  In the time it took to type this we had sunshine streaming into the windows and now it's dark, looking like rain.  Maine weather is ephemeral.

My thumb hasn't hurt-until I sat here to type replies to email.  Connie mentioned the pain is sending a message--too much typing????  Connie says good thing on the way.  Our boy.

Made a large pot of chicken soup for G--the first of this season.  It looked amazingly delicious. I had gone out to the library and then grocery (they are very close to each other) and got fresh carrots, celery and some very nice onions for the soup.  And chicken thighs.  And soup noodles.

G spent the day mow/mulching the neighbor across the street's maple leaves.  It took most of the day. He was cold and tired when he got back into the house.  So the soup was welcome.  He told the neighbor this was his last year/season to do her leaves or her lawn.  She will have to find someone else.  He decided it was time to retire from landscape work for anyone other than me.

He still has the daily walk with Riley.  No chance of Riley letting G retire from that.

There is a strikingly beautiful full moon here tonight. I didn't even need a flashlight to take the dogs out for the last walk. It's like the whole night is glowing and enchanted. I can't even describe how glorious it is.

Good for your husband for letting your neighbor know now that this is his last year. He can relax and she has months to find someone else.

It is clear and windy in southern NY. They are talking about a NorEaster coming through from that weird west coast hurricane that just hit mexico. I don; comment much but I read!
