Field Notes- Thursday, June 29th. It rained overnight or early this morning. Wet. Dark.

 I like the wall lamps.  I wanted them in matte black metal for the dining room.  They are not made in matt black.   This on line catalog shop has bedding for a "camp style" bedroom for grandchildren...that I will never have--I have the bedroom but will never have the grandchildren.and what would I do with them at my age????.  I love the old chair with a stack of books.

The Lawn Guy says he is coming today.  To cut the grass.  Which is wet. And I just don't care....sigh..I have gotten to that point where my fussy perfectionist self has just got to let go.......I did cover the Ornamental containers- Four- with netting and clothespins again last night.   Deer.  Eating my expensive plants.   Mosquitos.  Eating my bare ankles.

I finally read a book my daughter had gotten for me  Austenland.  A Jane Austin type "holiday" where you wear 18th century clothing and live in an old house.......with actors pretending to be characters......I wasn't going to like it....but by the end, I did.  It's a movie.  If you have "'things" on your cable service that allows you to view stuff (I do not)...you could go look for it.....could be fun to watch.  Was fun to read.

I rolled out of bed this morning and fell on the floor.  My back and neck feel a bit stiff.  My hip was the the first to hit the floor and it hit hard but doesn't hurt....yet.  I can't quite figure out how it happened...... I would think this is what most Seniors would say after falling......can't quite figure out how it happened.
