Spring Notes- Tuesday May 21st- 66 degrees and plenty of sunshine.


 Boeing Boeing...Gone.  One dead and lots injured.  Time to shut it down. Or really sue them.

So...here in Maine I have the doors and windows shut tight.  I am still wearing a thermal shirt under a long sleeved cotton shirt.  Socks.  Staying cool as long as possible.  Son is doing laundry.  Lots of it.

The Pirate Book was satisfying.....and today I have April Lindner's adaptation of Wuthering Heights.  The girl on the cover is dressed in leather pants.  I've never read Wuthering Heights so this should be interesting.  Same author who did Jane Eyre with a Rock Star as Rochester.  That one was good. But I never read Jane Eyre either....print was too tiny for my eyes.

I changed out my art notebook (removed pasted in images to color) and drew designs myself and colored one yesterday.  Now that I can post photos I should take pictures of them....I need to have someone remind me.  

Because my list of things to be responsible for- last year- so so long and weighty- my brain got fatigued. The sleeping has helped but I am still foggy....I still forget stuff mostly because I just don't get it into my brain or memory like I used to. Son reminded me that I had thawed out a package of Mexican Corn.  I need to eat it today...I intended to eat it today.  

House across the street is supposed to be listed today....also Son asked to see overhead pictures of the property lines....he had spoken to the next door neighbor.....the propane tanks will be moved.

My desk top calendar has so many lovely images pasted to it....I've also added a listing of the books I read that month.  I was putting the titles in a notebook....this seems like more fun...I now have three and a half years of calendar pages with notes, pictures and art on them. Perhaps they can put them up or show them to me when I am old and in a care home????  I'd rather have a quick stroke and be dead.

  1. Perhaps you might try audio books of "Jane Eyre" and "Wuthering Heights?" You could listen to them and work on patchwork or applique at the same time.
