Daily Notes- Thursday, March 10th. Snow over night. Not much and it's melting this morning.


 Here we are- Ten days into March.  I tried to watch the news.  I did. Try. And then had to stop.  It wasn't worth the anxiety.  I don't know why we can't provide war planes. Escalation they say.  But isn't it already escalating.  We didn't hesitate in Afghanistan did we? Or did we learn something there???

So...snow over night.  Vehicles in and out next door.  Might be an evaluation prior to or an actual sales agreement.  That's how long a house stays on the market here in Coastal Maine.  Minutes.

You better have somewhere to go.  If the house sells.  

I didn't read yesterday.  I ate a lot of snacks prior to 2pm and then turned off the TV and closed my eyes. I didn't sleep- I just rested.  Let my mind wander. And then, much much later, I went to bed and slept. Really well.  I feel good. 

It did snow overnight.  But not as much as the really idiotic weather people suggest. Endlessly.  And like it says up top- it's melting.  I will be getting my fruit trees etc pruned.  That was settled. But the guy doesn't want any other work.  Yep- another thing about Coastal Maine.  No one wants to work.

Case in point- my still unimproved kitchen.  The press and stick "real maple" flooring is unsticking itself after 40 years.  And I am using rolls of clear packing tape to hold down the popped edges so we don't trip and get a bleeding head injury and die here in the house- alone.  We tried nails.. but- that didn't work.

First mice and now the floor is giving up.  Sigh!!!!!!

Good News going forward is that Mud Season and then Black Fly Season are just around the bend. Then Ticks along with Brown Tail Moth skin irritation.  Then it's Winter again.  

Oh and now that everyone thinks COVID is over- The Hoards of Summer People will return. Crap.

my take on the Russian/Ukrainian war is that we, along with other possible allies, are terrified of P sending nuclear missiles everywhere...so we lie low and hope economic sanctions work.

Sorry I deleted your comment. It was an accident- Putin is a true wild card. Dead eyes and an absolute desire for domination.
He already bombed a nuclear power plant and made a mess of it- so didn't get the nuclear accident he wanted. but eventually, he will.
