Daily Notes- It's Dark. It's Wet. Storm is approaching


 So I live in the curve between Portland and Wiscasset.  Between 3.12 and 3.89 inches of rain.  And I want you to know the ground here in Maine has been dry dry dry for about 5 years now.  So the water isn't going to soak in.  It is going to run, pile up and flood. And then drain into the ocean.  Cause that blue in the lower right is the ocean.

When they have talked about the ocean levels rising from the melting of the polar caps- they are actually talking about my house being 10 to 20 feet underwater.  Eventually.  Like- GONE.

I have lights on.  It's dark like it's evening.  It's chilly and damp which makes it feel colder. It's 1 pm.

I got to see Boris Sanchez on MSNBC.  So darn cute.  Reminds me of our son (hair, eyes).  And he has such a great smile. Then we watched Ancient Aliens.  All the people abducted by aliens have green or hazel eyes and B negative blood.  Sigh.  I was so BUMMED.  I have always wanted to be abducted by space aliens. So I turned off the tv.

I spent a great deal pf TIME yesterday searching for a yellow green fabric with black dots.  It's on one of the pieces pinned to the wall by the dining room table.  I went upstairs three times and searched the little closet four times.  Nothing.  But I did find the map fabric that's been missing for years. I don't want the map fabric Now.....but it was nice to find it. 

I found six different kinds of green fabric with black dots.  All purchased at the same time.  If I liked something........ I bought lots of it.  No Yellow Green.  Lots of swearing.  Lots of slamming doors.  Lots of stomping up and down stairs to the Magic Attic.  To minimize confusion- I have brought all the green with dots down to the sewing room.  

Well, the rain has arrived- pouring down.  Now, I think I need a sweater.  The AC units are off. Because it feels really cold in the house.
