Daily Notes of a Crabby Old Woman. Thursday May 14th... Chilly and Windy here in Maine.


 Japanese Cherry Blossom.  (again????)

I wasn't quick enough to get you a photo of the Wild Turkey in the back yard.

The tree in my yard to the left of the front porch- occasionally sends out a few pink flowers. But more often than not goes directly to green leaves.  As it has this year......

It's chilly..I have on a thermal shirt and a wool sweater and am still shivering.  I turned the furnace up a bit.  Usually I just tuck myself into the couch with a down lap blanket (or two).  Tomorrow is Library Grocery Shopping Day.... considering what books I will be choosing to read..... or more likely NOT read. I'm stuck in the "falling in love" category. I adore Romance.

I am also thinking about next week's food choices....the bag of cherries I got for the Week's Fruit are very very good. (more????) I have one more baked sweet potato for today's lunch (or dinner) with melted Swiss cheese and three slices of Toasting Bread for a nice Grilled Cheese sandwich plus toast with butter and jam..  Love when the food sorts itself out.

TV has been dismal.  I can't settle in and watch any of the regular stuff.  Channel Surfing never works for me.  I CANNOT watch NEWS.........

Well. enough whining....I have Soccer games recorded....I have CSI-New York.  CSI-Miami is getting a bit too ORANGE for me. New York is darker.  Linda Howard's Prey was very very readable. I now have THREE of her books I can always fall back on in a BooK Emergency. There is a fourth- the Woman Left Behind but that one breaks my heart....the military helicopter lifts off leaving her.......behind in enemy  territory... I might read it again..but I have taken it off the shelf and put it back many many times.
