Daily Notes- Saturday, July 9th. Sunshine and high of 77. According to the newspaper.


 We don't have this much color in the garden but my husband does look like this while watering.  The Scarlet Runner Beans have red flowers so that is lovely.  The tall Mullein plant has yellow flowers.  And the Elderberry bushes have white flower heads that turn into tiny dark blue berries.  The grape vines I thought were DEAD are now climbing over every upright support in the garden.  We will have three kinds of grapes.  Concord Seedless, Merlot, and a third that remains nameless because I forgot.  I remember the Merlot- because Patty named him Leon.

I watched two more episodes of Buffy yesterday on one of the channels in my cable package that I NEVER Watch.  I am reminded that in a Kendrick book- Two Weeks Before The Wedding- the bride gave a neglected surgeon's wife the collected set of Buffy to watch. And the woman loved the series.  I don't get it.  But.....I keep watching--sort of.  The small Town where Buffy lives is FULL of vampires and recently unburied dead people etc.  Buffy goes to high school occasionally and the dead teenagers show up at high school more often than one would guess.....sounds like my high school in the 1960's

The War Criminal Serbian is playing Tennis with the Unhinged Australian Monster today.  It will be interesting to see just how many " unsupervised bathroom breaks" each of them takes............. the Australian was complaining of a "stomach muscle problem"...... the Serbian says he goes into the bathroom for "pep talks".  You can't really make up stuff like this by yourself.

I need to pit a bunch of cherries and make a yogurt bowl to have for late lunch around 3 pm. Takes a few hours for the Bran Buds to soften in the yogurt.  Yesterday I had Romaine lettuce, BBQ pork and Cheddar cheese for lunch while I watched the Power people put on tons of gear and climb the pole to work on neighbor's electricity.  Ours was fine.

I haven't read a book in three days.  I know- it's worrisome.

when I worked the night shift at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer (years ago), we always had the tv on, usually tuned into the news. But at night we drifted over the regularly scheduled prime-time programming. Buffy was the department's chosen series. I liked it because I like to watch what younger people are watching. I found it highly entertaining plus I love the idea of vampires living among us. I think I even started watching it a little at home.
