Daily Notes- Sunshine with a chance of Clouds. Cooler.

 My annuals are getting tall and filling out.  It's going to be less hot today so I will think seriously about getting these plants into containers.  

Husband needed books so a quick trip to the library.  And then, because we are easier around people and I had on a mask- the children's librarian and I had a long chat.  We shared our inter- most fears from this year plus horror show.  We are the same age and have health issues etc.  She lives alone so I think that might be hardest of all to deal with. Children are still not vaccinated so the children's section of the library is fully masked.

Daughter is shopping for plants and calling me to give her the English word for the Latin names on her shopping list.  Luckily I have three excellent landscape plant reference books.  The Botany major sitting here eating breakfast at noon- didn't take Latin in high school.....I did. But that was 100 years ago.

In elementary school I had several years of German.  Everyone did.  Which to me was strange (looking back) as the war with Germany was just over.  Why German?  But I knew enough that I should have taken German in high school.  But then I may not have scored as high on the SAT's.

Yesterday daughter and her work partner came in- they had had a long day digging etc on sites- to install our two window AC units.  Fifteen Minutes and nothing fell out of any windows.  He carried the units from the garage and she stood outside and balanced the units while he got them settled and secure. No one fell down.  (I fell down twice last year)  And, I guess. it's going to be 90 with high humidity by the weekend.

So......stand down DebL.  No one fell out a window.
