Field Notes- Sunshine, close to 40 degrees, icy slush on the driveway. Library books.


 Piaggio APE.  This is what the vehicle is called.  I like it.  Three wheels.  Blue. Definitely not an Automatic.  Laughing....... I can see myself driving this into Town to the grocery and Library.  On the sidewalk.

So.  About 7 or 8 pm (yesterday) my tooth returned to normal, no longer numb.  Just as I started watching Tom Brady decompose..... he was bored... NUMB...you could see it....listless.  Didn't care.

So I turned off the tv and started reading a book by an author who has never let me down.  Yep...she let me down.  

I don't even recall the title- (Drunk on Love) I returned it this afternoon.  I got four books- all books I have read before but not ones I own.  I don't want to be disappointed again.  I also had to stop at the grocery.  Husband was running out of orange juice and  "didn't have enough cake, cookies for dessert".  Dessert is his evening MEAL.  If I ate as much dessert as he does- night after night I would be the size of an ...APE.

So tooth is good.  I have a button to sew on my sweater.  

I hand shoveled (no machinery involved) not wearing a coat, hat or gloves.....It's really warm......the front walk, the front porch steps and the back deck. I got right down to the concrete.  Husband used the snow blower.... and the driveway is still  covered in snow. Which will freeze over night unless it melts before then and will freeze as ice.. Husband was dressed for an Arctic Expedition.  

The Snow Blower repeatedly clogged up with the wet mess. Which gave him the opportunity to stick the stick into the running snow blower.......gosh!!!!!  I told him it wasn't the right thing to do.....I actually think he wanted to  run me over with the machine.......Yes, I SHOULD KEEP MY OPINIONS TO MYSELF......but I was right.  Not always....I see the mistakes I make and try and learn from then..... He never sees ANYTHING he does as a mistake.......... I see EVERY mistake I ever made....Regret them all. Would love to actually be a character in one of the books I read...get a magical do over.
