Another Tuesday- the Sun is shining.and it's 50 degrees here in Maine.


Okay....I had some difficulty getting here today....I worked in a greenhouse that looked like this for Ten Years. I was rather frustrated with my fellow employees for quite awhile and they felt the same about me. Eventually...it all settled down.  I was a hard worker...I did the heavy lifting....rarely complained  

In that environment.....that's important.  Doing the heavy lifting. I went home caked in dirt every single day. 

Daughter (personal assistant) has started in on the garage today.  The Sun is out but is not all that warm.

We are making another trip to Goodwill today....and then the Greenhouse to buy Paperwhite bulbs.... I want to start some for winter... in a glass vase. A large rectangular glass vase.  Like the old days. Something familiar that I lost contact with years ago......I went looking for it- my husband had a habit of keeping his own things and throwing mine away.  Now we are packing up his things.

That says something about our relationship doesn't it. It might tell you everything you need to know. 

(I found the rectangular glass container on the Sunporch Shelving.)

There is a vast empty place in my Life Trajectory.  Retiring from the Greenhouse left an open spot that I didn't even try to fill.  And then husband filled it with his needs. And now.......I need to fill it with my own wants and needs.  Perhaps for the first time.....I won't be doing things for someone else.

Just back from the garage: daughter is cleaning out the POISON Shelving...my husband loved Round Up even after it was pointed out to him that Round Up causes cancer in humans and animals- like our DOGS. Maybe 6 large containers of it....unopened thankfully.  We did break a very large glass item that was scheduled -years ago- to be a very nice Terrarium for me. Or Dish Garden.  Neither is of interest to me at my age.

The Sun was out and it was warmish but now it's cloudy and there is a chill.  

We are going out later....daughter and I.....and we will stop at a bookstore.  I need a wall calendar for 2025. Something pretty...
