Daily Notes- July 26th



Modification on the Pandemic Mask

Remove the elastic from a paper disposable mask and sew it onto a cloth mask- 
after removing the strings used to tie it on your head.
I have not and will not go into JoAnn's for elastic- if they even have any.
My daughter says the majority of women in the store have no masks on. Stand too close.
(she went in fully masked like a Desert Storm combat veteran)
Her landscaping attire resembles combat gear.

I would prefer my friend cut the entire side strip off the masks.
I have asked.

News on the Tomato Situation
The tomato plants- with careful watering and not too much fussing around by me
have started to look like nothing ever happened to them.  Lush.
Well, one of them (possibly two) is merely a stump- but......nothing can be done about that.
Green leaves cover many injuries.

Reading report:  Started and finished reading Where the Crawdads Sing yesterday.
Just as wonderful as the first time and the ending causing my eyes to leak so I couldn't see the words.
Going to ask daughter to be on lookout for a copy to own.

We ordered Chinese take out yesterday.  Dumplings, fried rice and sweet sour soup.
Husband said they were busy and there was a line around the side of the building.
More traffic than we have seen in Town in months.
DQ is now open from 11am to 9 pm (in case we mow the grass late)

Newspaper mentioned Maine has had the most success with keeping numbers down. 
Low population in a large land mass State.  Closed Canadian borders.
No contact with large States and Cities- Boston.  New York.
But paper also had an editorial that we may look back on July 2020 as "the good old days" 
Meaning that far more trouble is on the way.

  1. I've read Crawdads twice also. And will probably read it a third time. That rarely happens.

    My state was low in numbers too, but not now. New restrictions coming tomorrow.
