I don't have any tulips as yet but plenty of the second generation of daffodils. The first, the ones I took a picture of for the blog- got covered in that last Surprise snowfall and died. Tulips are iffy in Maine. Only the first season is for sure. Like new arrivals to Maine....iffy.
But I like them. Very much. (the tulips and the new arrivals)
It's cold in the house this morning ( I just noticed I had forgotten to turn up the thermostat for HEAT). The Tree Guys haven't shown up. A very Maine work style.
I have a lunch date with my neighbor at number one in 30 minutes. We've both been cooped up for too long without "women chat" so looking forward to it.......and the wine. I might have a Gin and Tonic. Extra Limes.
I am reading a Devereaux that I sort of remember reading. Legend. Cowboy stuff. Horses. Guns. etc. Cooking rabbits over an open fire...cooking fish over an open fire....bathing in pond water. Stinky.
Tru-Green showed up. I had to send him away. With all the branches piles on the grass- he would have gotten himself all tangled up...He said he'd be back in two weeks. I never actually expect Tru Green to show up or to come back in two weeks...this was a much older man...perhaps he will come back?? Or forget.
I have on a pair of green pants from one of the storage tubs...I've decided the reason Bean sold employees the pants for 25 cents- is that the tag inside with the size- is NOT the size.........at all. So this is the second pair I tried on.....I will have a Sharpie with me next time and write on the tag what I think the size actually is...for any pants I try on.... at least both legs on the pants I have on- are the same length. That's a bonus.
