Daily Notes for Saturday, October 25th. Clouds with perhaps some much needed rain.

 Lego for adults...out of all the space ships etc- I chose this one...just for the image...I never was a fan of Lego but my two "kids" did love to build things.

1.  I found an Amazon site with lists of romance novels... four index cards- both sides- plus one card with only one side filled....I got shut out at that point... looking and not ordering....sigh. I had 300 some pages  of lists to go.  I kept writing down titles because so many of the books on the listing were ones I had read and really really liked....so I knew the ones I was writing down were also going to what I liked.

2.  It's too bad they shut me out- I was just about convinced that having an Amazon Book Account was the way to go....in my 80's.  Finding books in the Library with fiction and mystery smushed together in very tight shelving- it isn't fun anymore....and I rarely find more that 2 or 3 books...and that doesn't get me thru the week.  I was thinking an Amazon Package every month was the FUTURE for me.

3.  I stopped here first to write to you....and now I am going to make oatmeal and coffee and read the paper...put on socks. my ankles are getting chilled...  it's dark, damp and cloudy here in Maine.

4.  I have a big container of  homemade vegetable soup in the fridge....Life is Good.

5.  Maid for Each Other by Painter--her newest book...was okay- not great.  It could have used another re-write with perhaps "someone else" adding comments.  The end was hurried and not in any way convincing. And I am left with actually nothing new to read.....I have a Lipman and two Linda Howard's I've read many times already. and one Beth Kendrick, also read many times. But all of them never disappoint.. I have books in the book cupboard with tiny print...light ink.  Sadly, I can't read them. Well, I Can but it's not worth the eye fatigue.  Which lasts for longer than I like.

6.  In answer to the query:  Yes. they do deliver... Pharmacy and the Groceries.  But going to the actual Store and Library is my ONLY "outing" each week.... so I have to wait till someone offers to take me in their car.  And yes, I have heard of a Taxi.   I believe my Town has ONE.  Though I have NOT seen it  recently.
