Daily Notes- September 8th. We might have the neighbor sorted........


 Not sure who anonymous is- who left a note yesterday.  But I am going to go get the ice cream.  As soon as I hit publish on this post.   It looks like rain.. husband is cutting the grass.

I am reading Off the Menu by Stacey Ballis.  I liked one so I started ordering any of the rest in other libraries- then you wait.  Shipping takes time and there is quarantine.  This one might have been the first book.  Not as good as the fix it upper book.  Not as bad as the previous book.

Next up are three back to back re-reads of books I have adored in 2021.  I cannot wait.

As to making ART.  ART- in my case, gets made inside my head for awhile before it gets onto cloth or paper.  There are some good ideas floating and some awful ones.  And I have gone to the Attic in search of the gray fabric with lines and dots.  I cannot find it.  The square I am enlarging has this fabric in it.  So, it EXISTS.  Or  EXISTED.  I do not buy small pieces.  Half yard is as small as I go (now) but I have been known to buy fat quarters..ugh!!!  This cloth is not showing up in anything else- at this point- if it did it would be unsewn out and USED.  I have tried other grey prints--do not work.

I FOUND IT!!!!!!!

Had different milk this morning.  My milk is not available- entire section at grocery is bare.  No instant coffee.  Bare shelf. I got the LAST LOAF of the magnificent bread Deb told me to buy. People refusing vaccine are sick and getting everyone else sick..  By the Time I drive to grocery the ice cream will be gone.  Every day.......less and less makes sense to me. And STILL- they do not wear masks.

Neighbors ALL have been visited by the memory impaired neighbor.  Police have been called and some support agency has been asked to knock on her door.  I found out neighbors have been feeding her. For weeks if not months.  My house is at the very far end and set back far into the trees.....so she didn't get down here until Saturday. I have been told to NOT let her in MY house and walk her back home but NOT to enter HER house.  There is liability attached. Many neighbors are lawyers. The rest are doctors it seems.  A few teachers. I miss having the CIA guy living a few houses down. We even have a Veterinary Surgeon- large mammals  (horses mostly) her boyfriend is a Rock Band's Roadie.  So.......funeral Friday for Ruth next door. Neighborhood is going.  Family is sorry but won't be serving lunch. COVID.

Obit is the paper this morning.  Ruth was quite a gal.
