Daily Mending- January 11th


 So- Monday.   The Library was my first stop and I picked up my long awaited book. Then the Grocery Store where I got a bag full of Cara Cara navel oranges.  The grapefruit looked wonderful but..... not this week.  Interferes with my meds so I save eating a few for special occasions.  The Cara Cara surprised me by being pink inside.  Like grapefruit. And there is a similarity so perhaps I am not supposed to eat them either?  I seemed to have bought quite a bit today and my list hadn't been that long.  I had to buy a secondary choice in pancake syrup- along with changing her name from Aunt Jemima and removing her picture- the company must be thinking about not selling the syrup anymore???  It's my favorite.  I did find one ball of pizza dough.  All the others in the case had been infested with "flavors" not of my choosing.

I did buy a new dustpan and brush at the grocery store- husband borrowed the kitchen one and it hasn't been seen since.  They didn't have brooms.  He borrowed the broom as well.  I am in the process of affixing a big NO on the brush and pan.  I have sticky NO notes on my food in the fridge.  He eats it even thought he professes to not like it (YUCK) ..example- meatloaf. Which was for my dinner.  He ate it.

Football.  I gave up on one game and later (after some Hallmark) found myself back to watching Cleveland and Pittsburgh.  As usual, neither team has much "poetry" to their strategy which I noticed because there wasn't one great looking guy on the combined total of players.  

Just pound each other into the frozen ground. Ben ended the game in tears.  He might have reached his expiration date. I was as surprised by the Cleveland quarterback as everyone else on Earth is.  Whether they can do anything with Baltimore and Lamar is the BIG Question.

My brother in Georgia has gotten his first dose of Moderna vaccine.  He was given an appointment date and time for the second dose.  So different from Maine.  No info on anyone not in a nursing home or working in a grocery store or hospital getting a shot.  They are saying husband and I will get one- maybe-- in April.  Bah Humbug.

I will be making more masks today.  I didn't get to make myself a tomato fabric mask. Maybe today.  I am not sure today is a sewing machine day.  I'll know within minutes of turning the machine on. Sigh.
