For years, but not YEARS, I baked or purchased cherry pie on George's birthday. One VERY memorable pie was from Whole Foods. Expensive. Delicious. Never saw one for sale again. Dreamed of that pie. I then subbed in those triangular frozen turnovers that one baked in the oven. Cherry. But those are gone as well. I actually liked those very much.
One visit from my son early on in the 30 or 40 years here- we baked Cherry Pie. Together. He and I enjoy cooking together and trading techniques and tips. It would be great fun to do that once a month, together. But he's in California. And we are as far apart as family can be- one edge of America and the other edge of America.
He can see the Pacific and we can see the Atlantic.
I moved furniture and vacuumed the living section of the house. Now I am resting. Then I might tackle the sleeping side of the house. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. It's been quite a while since I did this work. Procrastination. Today.......I decided enough dust.....
We both had showers this morning. Clean clothes. The laundry basket if overflowing. I smell nice. I keep sniffing myself. Smelling nice.
My hair feels so silky. Clean. In the Summer I wash it everyday. Changing summer clothes each day is easier- lighter loads of wash. Winter Clothes are tedious and heavy. Winter feels Tedious.
I have written Ann Cleeves on my book card- index- that I take to the library with me. I have read two books about a policeman- Connie recommended them to me- and I liked the way they were written. It's not a series my library carries so must be ordered "from away". My library gets rid of older books. The shelving is half empty. Not many new books are purchased. When I want to re-read the older Louise Penny books I have to borrow them from all the other Maine Libraries. Our Library used to have them...not anymore. And the newest books are always from the 7 day shelving. And when that is returned...we don't see the books anymore and need to borrow them from somewhere else.
I just finished Devon Daniels "Meet You in the Middle". Washington DC. Two aides to Senators. A romance of sorts: Like Pride and Prejudice. Both stuck with prejudice regarding the politics of the other. Very much a book of the here and now on the news everyday. A love story. One of the best of them.

I MUST take a shower today and I am not sure why I keep putting of off LOL
I put it off because I don't want to wash more clothes. I am getting so lazy.
