Daily Notes- Post #3695


 In today's morning paper.  I think we have been "whitest" since we moved here. But diverse is new. Ish. The majority of our Diverse are immigrants, welcomed, I hope, by the Statue of Liberty (as my grandparents and husband's were in the late1800's.).

Finished watering the Almost Grass. Filled the one gallon bottles that I use to water the container plants. Then watered them, filled the bottles again.  Later in the afternoon I will water them again.  Containers dry out so fast when it's over 80 degrees.

That was enough outdoors for me. My chest feels tight and I am coughing (due to a lack of oxygen).  

By some sublime quirk of memory- I thawed out a ball of dough and made pizza last evening.  Then turned on the tv and found the Patriots playing football.  We had Football Pizza.  The game was fine but we missed the first quarter. No one was wearing masks in the stadium. Boston. No other comment needed.

Did any of you read Diane's comment on yesterday's post.  The song on the radio..... read it.  Gave me shivers of the most excellent kind.

My daughter called- could I search my car for her phone charger.  I did.  No charger.  Message this morning- she found it.  In a pocket of her pants.  I did find almost one dollar of change in the car.

I am NOT going to the grocery today.  I noticed I was going every three days.  Way too often.  So...I am trying hard NOT to go out.  Husband did visit Tractor Supply to buy bird seed ysterday- black oil sunflower seeds. He also wandered around looking at stuff.  Purchased another bird feeder.

There are enough odd bits and pieces to make a lunch and dinner.  A good dig around in the freezer will turn up something.  I also emptied out the pantry of a few past expiration date things.  I was in there looking around- seeing what's what.  I have a large supply of dry lentils and and equal amount of canned baked beans and no great interest in either.
