Still Summer Notes- Thursday, September 5th. 66 degrees, sunshine and 84% humidity.


 Sigh.   No Cosmic Compost.   Bah, Humbug.

My son and the guy cutting the grass...both very sad that the Peach Trees have been cut down.  I am not. The guy cutting the grass asked about who was doing my landscape work- asked me to give his "digits" to her.  He needs someone to do landscape cleanup. Finding people to "do things" is really difficult.

I don't even like to "do things" anymore.  Even my hot dogs yesterday seemed like too much work.

Re-reading Troublemaker.  Linda Howard.  Might go for a third read.....

I checked and CML has the Road Trip book Deborah recommended. I have it on reserve...pick it up tomorrow.  Today is the first day we can order from OTHER libraries.  I am waiting a bit..... let the early birders get theirs.  I love book recommendations. Rom Com Road Trips are some of the best kinds of Rom Com. I think I have two in my book case. Trapped in a car... Mrs. Nash's Ashes is a great road trip.  There's even a Broccoli Festival Parade. I read a British one about two people going to a wedding..... in a tiny car. One or both of them had been engaged to either bride or groom....gal got trapped in tiny bathroom at the church.  Any idea regarding it's title????????

So.....I changed clothing many times yesterday. It was very very cold in the am and then mildly chilly in the afternoon and then "just right" by dinner time.  Bedtime was warmish.  Four changes of clothing.

I skipped the front page of the newspaper.  Moved on to the interior pages.  We have quite a disturbance  locally due to fire suppressants discharging into the air and water on the no longer "in service" Naval Air Base (next door).  Seems the Navy left all their contaminates "aging" in place. And now they are "leaking" into the ground water supplies.   Well, I am already old...was going to die anyway.

Burrow has bleached his hair blonde..... And has two of the Patriots BEST- now playing for Cincinnati. In this week's Game.  Whoa!!!  How's that for karma??????? Both 6 -8 and over 330 pounds.  And mad as hell, I assume.  Gonna hurt someone....  I don't know who or what is happening in the Patriots Planning Office...but drugs, or lobotomies must play into it.  Pay to Lose.

  1. the house i grew up in had nine peach trees. my mother would can, and freeze them for winter eating. we had a freeze here at the wrong time and caused the trees not to produce any stone fruit. 93 degrees here today makes it difficult to work out side and as we grow vegetables for a living most work gets done early morning and evening.

  2. I certainly don't have as much knowledge as you about gardening, but sometimes it seems like you just have to clear things out and start over.
