Daily notes- Wednesday, May 7th. Cloudy but not actually raining-----yet. 58 degrees. Still too wet for grass cutting.


 I wish I had some biscuits....but then I would eat them all.....I don't need to be doing that. when I get bored or anxious I tend to eat mindlessly.....anything I can find....

It's a bit chilly here in the house....but was uncomfortably warm last night...so warm I had to get out of bed and turn down the furnace regulators. And that's saying something as I have been running cold for the past 18 months.  Wearing a thermal shirt, a sweater, corduroy pants and wool socks.  Still chilled. I need a scarf around my neck.

I found a recipe for Lemon Raspberry Cornmeal Cake in the King Arthur daily email.  I read the comments first......Not enough fruit etc etc..............but the notes did mention : double the berries and I could even sub in rhubarb which I have.  I also have raspberries... I have No Lemon. But I do have this stuff I can add to water to make lemon water.....good enough.  That's my New Motto- good enough.

Son showed me how to turn on the oven and also showed me the chart of how to use the new stove...it was right there (on the counter next to the stove) but..like anything you see several times a day for a year- you hardly notice it....I think the instructions for the new microwave are also there....and daughter taped the ones for the new Air Fryer to the machine itself....if I was ever to use it.  I usually like to know what is going to "happen" before I just use something new.  Like an air fryer...... supposed to make frozen things crispy.  And hot.

All the back yard daffodils have dried up... My JOB now is to go into the bed and snap the dead parts off. Without tripping and falling down. sigh.

I watched European Soccer on CBS last evening.... there's another game today...a championship or something. Excellent playing....I am looking forward to today's game.  No commercials.  There was a great deal of singing from the crowd.....I like that part especially.

Ah, some Sunshine!!!!!!!
