Field Notes- Wednesday, June 7th--- Clouds in my coffee. A Chill in the air.


 Bee Balm. I think I tried growing this but it doesn't "stick".........

We are having a cloudy, chilly wet day here in Maine.  I need to turn on lights. I also need to do a load of wash as I am out of clean underpants. Out the window it looks like a good day for a funeral.  Dark. Wet.

I read a really great book- twice and am now sorry I returned it to the library. The Candidate Boyfriend. I just finished another book--The Nanny which was actually X-rated but still very entertaining. The two main characters certainly enjoyed each other...... quite often.

I am not sure what I will choose from the book pile for today.  One to make me laugh or another that will for sure make me cry....as it has done the many many times I have read it.

I moved the Annuals again.  Now they are up against the house wall and on a slatted wood strip so the pot bottoms don't sit it the "wet" and rot.  It's still too cold at night for them to be transplanted into their Summer Containers.  I am still wearing wool socks in the house and a thermal shirt under my work shirt. 

I bought a bag of Blood Meal to add to the containers to scare off Deer who like to think my Annual Containers are part of a Salad Bar for Deer.  Deer hate the smell of blood.

I am wearing my Winter Corduroy Pants and Wool Socks.  It reminds me of the summer we ran the Wood Stove it was so cold in the house.  In the 1990's.

Well, I have to go do that load of wash.  Make another cup of coffee.  Write in the Washing Machine Pages.
