Daily Notes- December First

                                     

I found this in one of the Feeds I get- titled Winter Garden.  Oddly enough, we still have winter Color here in Maine (tiny red berries on the crab tree next to the porch).  The Big Storm is running behind schedule and is now due late tonight or early tomorrow morning.  Not holding my breath.  Northern Maine got a foot of snow yesterday.  I live in what is described as "Southern" Maine or "Coastal" Maine depending on what real estate agent is writing the copy.

G and Daughter hauled the wreaths out of the garage attic and hung them up on the front porch Friday.  Yesterday G got them wired up and actually found the timer so they go off and on all by themselves--which really is Amazing (that he found it!). Today I think he'll bring down the two reindeer and get them up and they'll go on and off with the switch in the house for the lamp light. Once it snows and gets cold here- no going outside unless necessary.

I was trying to sew yesterday but I have to give up and wear my Reading glasses to sew.  I was trying to do more appliqué and that actually needs close vision.  I need to call and make an appointment for my annual eye exam.  Perhaps will be needing a new prescription.  My everyday/all day lens aren't good enough for sewing.

I have at least two loads of laundry to do today- so I'll get 3 or 4 pages written in the Washing Machine Pages notebook.  I feel like I might need to write out a few things that are festering.

I am considering baking the Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie today.  I forgot it and the Brussels sprouts on the actual day.  G hasn't had any of his birthday cake.  I think he forgets.  I tried having a list of what to eat on the fridge door but he never looked at it and then said he "couldn't" find the food on the list in the fridge.  So I gave up.

Well, I am making a nice hot cup of coffee (second one today) and heading off to do laundry.  Have a lovely day.  Stay warm.
