Winter Notes- Friday, February 23rd. 37 degrees and raining.


 Dismal and Raining.

Yesterday I watched PBS.  An hour about an artist.  Alan Magee I think.  I don't want to go searching right now.  I have it in my TiVo storage.  I like watching it.  This image only slightly reminds me of his work. I also watched PBS and Leonardo......who may have copied other's work and then improved on their ideas.

Magee painted his paint box---I loved the image.

I am staying away from MSNBC--yesterday and today.  Alabama.  Supreme Court.  Putin.  Not a world I want to live in.

We did Library and Grocery.  I got books.  Nothing that excites me.  I was going to select off the 7 days shelves as we come to the library every 7 days....but none of the books I wanted to read were there.  And I didn't feel like reading the inside covers.... I woke from a..not disturbing...but a thinking about it dream. And now I can't recall it so...I am just waiting for the thoughts to drift back into my mind.

Son ventured out to the DMV and got his new Maine Driver's License yesterday.  Paper now and the real one in a week or two.  Now he needs to register his car.  He was number 61 so the DMV had a busy day? Went Sam and I went- number 13 was close to the 8 am starting time.

Yesterday, My mind was traveling back and forth- present, past, future.  When I do that, it wears me out. 

I chose Hot Dogs for this week.  And got some very crisp chicken nuggets from the Hot Bar.  I also got Bagels and cream cheese.  I got Oatmeal.  Used the very last of the old box for breakfast-  thank goodness today was shopping day.  I also got Bran Flakes.  For cold cereal days.  I stood in front of the beets.... I love them roasted with olive oil and Balsamic vinegar....I did not get them.  Next week.  I still have two sweet potatoes.... I selected three smooth skinned heavy navel oranges for my fruit....

I took several books back to the library unread.  And I spent time trying to recall a book I liked....finally I remembered the title.  It's in my bookcase.  

Okay that is all I have...I am waiting to hear if the lander on the Moon is working...they said the signal was weak.  Fingers crossed......I am a big fan of space exploration.
