Field Notes- Thursday March 2nd. Snowing. Again. Wet and slippery.......


 Took a chance the camera would send...and got this photo of the crab tree to the left of my front door- looking out.  That "fence" is to keep the deer out from under the tree where we have planted Hosta.  Like a Deer Salad Bar.  Live and Learn?  No...I knew they would try their best to eat the Hosta. Fence or No Fence.

Got my hair cut.  We were going two other places but the roads hadn't been cleared and it was that in between temp- not freezing but just cold enough.  Slippery. I assume the plow trucks were on the highways.  Which makes me..............glad to be home.

I have a new, fresh pot of Chicken Soup on the stove.  Husband was out.  I am really quite happy he is eating soup this Winter......last year he absolutely refused....and the soup went into the compost pile. Not the chicken thighs.....Just the broth and vegetables.  No meat or dairy in the compost....Ever.

I am reading Undone.  The spine of the book has a "First in Series" sticker.  I question that...... yet another sexual pervert.......that and meth labs.  Atlanta.  Perhaps after we had moved to Florida? Though I do recall bodies on the sidewalks in downtown Atlanta.  Overdoses.  Will Trent.  He had to go down into a dirt pit in the woods. He was as excited about it as I would have been........ Sara was in the ER with the victim.

I was never quite SURE about the Atlanta  Police or even the Fort Lauderdale Police back in those days. They all looked pumped up on steroids and they wore reflective black sun glasses......so you never got a good look at their eyes. And the first qualification for employment was to be well over six feet tall. I never got pulled over (for going too slow) but I saw plenty of people who did ..... get pulled out of cars and "patted" down. Roughly.

Anyway....more women being found close to death. In the book.  Not here.
