Field Notes- Saturday, May 27th. It's so cold in the house. I need socks. I refuse to open windows.


 Yesterday's cactus in a line drawing by me....  on top of my loaded desk calendar.  There is a blank edge up under the base of the computer.....which I will fill in on the day I switch pages.  For June.  I have just started in on a second cactus.  Tiny work.

I have on a thermal shirt under my work shirt.....but no socks.  Because i have on  above the ankle pants. I just will not wear socks with ankle pants......I have my limits.

Pizza yesterday.  Husband was thrilled.  And there are two leftover slices.  

Velchi had a very interesting show on last night....I got into liking him when he did the 10am to 12 noon show on MSNBC with Rhule.  They were obnoxiously funny with each other.  He who tightly buttoned up and Rhule with these wrap dresses unwrapping...... I was waiting for the day (morning) when her dress fell off onto the floor.  Watching while the guys were taking my house apart and putting it back together. Telling me to order Future Stuff for bathrooms they hadn't even started on.....Filling the hall closet with sinks, faucets and shower heads.  Door knobs and hinges.  Wood floor planks pilled in boxes in the entry way. My bedroom (empty of me- but holding the washer dryer /bathtub and other stuff)... I felt like I was tight Velchi...unraveling like Rhule.

So....I've read my way thru all the Meg Cabot.  I think there might be others...sigh.  The last one I read I think is the newest.  Police Chief and Children's Librarian.  There are two more.  Island books.  This one was the last of the Island series.  I'm not going to go looking for them.

I might have actually reached my Book A Day limits.  At least for a few days. Until Monday.when I visit the library.  Two reserves are in transit.  From "other libraries"...because my library doesn't actually buy  NEW books anymore.  They Fund Raise. For the Endowment.  And A Book Mobile. Laughable if it wasn't so very very Sad.  The Library is in the very center of the population needing Bookmobile services.  So already "there". Everywhere else...well, a Bookmobile coming to my area of Executive Homes....is pretty ridiculous.  And the Community Cottages between here and the Library start at 800K.  And I wouldn't "fit".  If you get my meaning????  I'm not sure I even "fit" on my street anymore. We don't have a whole house generator.  Yet.
