Daily Notes- March 19th- I forgot to post yesterday. All is well.


 Well. It's been quite awhile since I forgot to post.  I actually don't know why it happened.  I was surprised to see that I had missed a day. I must be going mad.......

It's dark outside...rain is coming, I think.  It was cloudy and dismal yesterday as well.  We lost power overnight.  Hard to say why- another fried squirrel perhaps.  They do like to run on the power lines.

The house next door is under contract already ( 7 days) but we have no idea what sales price was decided.  I don't care but a number of others are concerned about the values on their properties.  We got our house for a bargain basement price.  The woman living here just wanted to "get the hell out of Maine".  We were happy to make that possible. Right place- right time.  Husband is very good at this when it comes to buying a house.

My email file has been loaded with crap from box stores etc. for the whole of February and March.  I spend the first 10 minutes deleting and then emptying the trash.  I never open any of the emails.  Just encourages them.  It's been three years since I have been inside one (box store)- I don't miss it.  Who needs more crappy junk???  Husband and I already dress like bums.

Our Strawberry Rhubarb pie is terrible.  Sour.  Rhubarb pieces are hard and raw.  It's going into the compost bucket.  I could go and complain but...I just don't have the interest in doing it.

I got a call from the Mammogram people.  My primary care doctor is a pain in the ass.  Even after quitting her practice.  I guess it gives her more free time to annoy people.  Anyway...I agreed to show up next Friday and get squeezed in the horrid machine.  Isn't there an age limit on these things???? 

Update after posting: the single serving yogurt with candy or cookies is what is missing.  The tubs of plain yogurt are in good supply.  I made a mixture of leftover cookies, sprinkles etc for him to add to the plain stuff but it's not making him happy.

I never accept the biannual invitation to the mammography in Main-Taunus-Kreis. I did one mammography in 1990 - could hardly move afterwards for 4 months. Then found my wonderful gyneacologist, who has performed ultrasound exams instead. Ultrasound diagnoses have improved enormously over the last 10 years. Insurance does not cover, so I pay for these myself. Last year a report was issued by German health officials, that these ultrasound exams are so much more effective than these horrible squeeze exams!

Thank you Beverly. It was fun looking at the Vet Surgeon's house(4) but I don't think it's actually for sale- but will be watching.
