Daily Notes- the Deer ate all the flowering annuals in pots. Iam ready to collect and ship Deer to some other State.

 From this morning's newspaper.  Mostly regarding Texas and Tennessee  but quite true of many other States, as well. The overnight number of new COVID cases in Tokyo was nearly 1200.  OVERNIGHT. Welcome to the Hell on Earth Olympics...... but the USA teams will be wearing air conditioned jackets.

 I still wear my mask indoors. Always. And have not even considered eating INSIDE a restaurant.

So...I was in traffic for awhile- hardly ever happens in my Town- Traffic.  But a new Medicare building (huge) is opening soon and new yellow lines and new lanes etc herald the arrival of senior citizens as soon as it opens.  This is my secondary provider (Martin's Point) and I adore them- they pay for EVERYTHING at zero cost to me.  Eyeglasses, hearing aids and etc etc.  Most of my doctor's visits are also free. It's Medicare Advantage. Wellness Care. 

So, traffic.  Waiting for my lane to have it's turn to go up to but not thru the traffic light.  And then I arrived and got my haircut.  ZERO excitement at the Beauty Shop.  Sorry Readers...I was bummed for you!!!

Then I drive- and waited again in a long traffic line-- to go back into Town and to the Library.  I got a bag full of books.  Then the grocery. Farm fresh pickling cucumbers and fresh bunches of dill.  So I'll be making home made refrigerator pickles.  The house will be alive with the smell of vinegar. And my poor  chopped grape vines have now made new vines and leaves.    So the jar will include grape leaves. My own dill seeds produced zero dill plants.. Acres of Mint.  Acres of Tarragon.  I don't know how to use either.

I also bought more milk.  Lactose free.  Which I will liberally pour over my Bran Flakes.  Oatmeal had it's last hurrah for the Summer this morning. Now it's Bran Flakes for the Win.

G had a doctor's appointment and had to go have blood work done.  He had a Cognitive Test which he passed. He says he passed.  But he has a new drug added to his pillboxes.  His doctor said he missed me.  I usually go to husband's appointments.  I sent a letter instead.  Which husband actually handed over.
