Field Notes- Saturday, June 3rd. Rained since last evening. Wet, Dark, Still.......no wind.


 I got whatever was wrong with the image intake...sorted.  Here on the computer and then....

I wiggled the TV antenna intake and I got to watch MSNBC with a perfect image.  It might be a one-off as they say...but it felt GOOD.  It felt normal. For One Day.  Then I watched PBS news.  Then I set out a new puzzle for husband on the puzzle table.

I boiled a new box of pasta for husband's gigantic CARB BOWL of PASTA with Some Chicken.  He wanted to turn off the ceiling fan and I happened to see him looking at all the walls for a switch....what must it be like to wander confused in a house you have lived in for well over 30 years?

I knew what he was looking for and called him over and showed him the switch he had installed years ago and added a post it note if he ever returns to that spot.. I didn't say anything.  What is the point of causing moments of distress...that he won't remember but might remember the feelings.....

Anyway, you have yesterday's drawing of a cactus dish garden.  I searched my bookcase and found an Indoor Garden book with cactus images.... so this was from a "live" plant (photo) and not an internet drawing.  And it is crooked.

I personally, had a bowl of Bran Flakes and lactate free milk for supper yesterday.  Was delicious.

I will be thawing out a ball of frozen pizza dough.....for today or tomorrow.

I might be sewing today......I have quite a few books waiting at the library but I might wait till Monday. I have things in the bookcase I enjoy reading.....and I have cloth and thread....and I began the day with a nice shower...it's all okay.   I know it won't be ..eventually...but it's okay right this minute as I type this.. and that's all I can expect going forward....is it raining where you are?

No rain here and none predicted for the next seven days. And maybe not even then. Plenty of hot days in the 90s. Unless things change we will be in drought very soon.

No rain here either, and none expected, very hot, we went from pleasant to hot very quickly
