Daily Notes on Wednesday July 16th. I went directly to reading and the talking on the phone after breakfast..


 One of the irritating feeds sent this image this morning...at one time I had roses growing here....I do love them and the fragrance some of the older ones have.  Deer think roses are salad. I have deer.  No roses.

Nothing to watch on tv and am reading Meredith, Alone by Claire Alexander...  British author.  Meredith hasn't left her house in quite a few years....does open the windows.......mentions ordering anything and everything and it arrives on her doorstep. Jigsaw puzzles.   The flowers up top are reminding me of the lines of words in this book.  Same sad but content feeling.  Yesterday's book was read to the end and shall remain nameless and forgotten... Tech Millenials...(spelling) so so boring and they whine......endlessly. 

Would any of us sleep on the floor of a basement on a foam mattress for a full year?????  And take cabs and buy takeout food with credit cards and drink in bars?   I can't believe it.  And have graduated with honors from prestigious universities?????  

1. AC units running on these absurdly HOT days here in Maine.  Heat is set to break at any time now (and it never rained). I am still wearing a long sleeve cotton men's work shirt...my uniform.  Still wearing the raspberry pink cropped pants....now washed and dried-.  I did laundry. Washed the shirt as well.  I feel "stuffy" but not hot and not sweating.  Perhaps I am not working at normal speeds???? Old person speed..

2. Had to walk into the "possible" ankle twisting area to turn on the outside hose...to fill the watering bottles. No injury to report.  Filled the watering bottles, watered and then filled them a second time..

3. My Master Garden Pal called and we had a long chat...she wants me to get out and buy myself a fresh Lobster Roll Sandwich... I do love them.  She is busy weeding her vegetable garden. I used to have one of those....vegetable garden.  Loved it.  Green beans, zucchini, pickling cucumbers. tiny carrots., tomatoes.

4.  I could be watching Bones but...I've run out of interest and it's the one where they find a body in an airplane oven while traveling to Japan.  She HAS to do Scientific Things with items gotten from the passengers....So Clever!!! So Boring.  Once was more than enough.

5. No Tennis.

6. It might be time to have some lunch....take care- will write tomorrow...

I'm with your friend - go out and order a fresh lobster roll sandwich. Or Door Dash one if you don't have a ride.

Door Dashing would be a FIRST........I used to be tech savvy but now-- it's wonder I still post.
