Field Notes- Thursday June 1st. Highs in the 90's today???? We'll see.


 no picture-  the iPhone battery is down to zero.  Why? I don't know. (but perhaps the iPhone is giving up) It is very very old.  And has pnly made phone calls when we had to call to the Library Desk inside to let them know we were parked outside during COVID. Ah, it woke up.  I am not taking the cactus drawing picture..now.  tomorrow.

The Peach Trees have a virus.  Rusty bubbles on some of the leaves.

Woo Peng's Five Peonies have turned brown and are now "past tense".

The Ants have survived the salt I sprinkled on them.

I can watch PBS but nothing else.  On my living room TV. I watched a recorded episode of Endeavor. I watched MSNBC on the dining room TV.  I got bored.

The bulb in my reading lamp went out...I went into the Supply Closet to look for a replacement.  Lots of strange looking bulbs.  I chose the "least" and...wow....so much light.  Surprise. I could even go back to appliqué.

Second load of washing yesterday- all the bedding off the bed including the down comforter cover.  Which needed it's own dry cycle.

New sheets and the king quilt.  Ready for Summer.  Still haven't opened ANY windows. 69 degrees inside.

And will hopefully keep it that way.  I might need to put on socks.

I finished the Boyfriend Candidate.  And started in on a 2006 paperback (the small ones) titled The Kiss. Very 2006.  (oh, how books have changed in 17 years) Not sure I am going to finish it....because the Library is sending texts that three or four books I asked for are "ready for pickup"  and I am wanting to go get them......NOW.  I also need to make a bowl with yogurt, pitted sweet cherries and Bran Buds.  So when I eventually get hungry I can eat that.  And I need to chop and freeze Patty's Rhubarb...Bright red fat stalks.  So....since nothing is actually happening here.....I am going to do some of that....iPhone is charging.  So a Cactus image tomorrow.  And that's it.
