I slept a long time this morning....Late Start.


 When I used to sew and make things.  I don't believe\ this has ever been top stitched down as yet.. and I don't know where it is...certainly not here..in the house.

I slept till 2 pm.   No excuse for it...

When son thinks I am awake enough we will do Library and Grocery Store.  I changed into a more stylish shirt for the outing...surprised it fits....and my pants are loose also.  I am eating more...

Daily Notes for Thursday May 3rd. The Grass was Cut. The Clouds are rolling in...Rain??????


 I have neither the lawn chairs nor the twisted half dead tree but I do have newly, freshly mowed  green grass....lots of it.  I expect rain at any moment.  Looks like a golf course out there right now.

I am 2/3rds into Four to Score....someone fire bombed Stephanie's apartment and car. She's staying with Morrelli.  Having dinner with his mom and grandmother...  Yikes...

I had my grocery store potstickers for lunch yesterday....might have a grilled cheese with "so many" pickles today with remaining bread and cheese slices......considering the choices tomorrow for grocery shopping and my lunches.  I also have one banana left...for potassium.... 

I need to order Statin's for pick up next Friday.  Count the number of vitamins I have left...might need a new jar.  Low on Tylenol as well.

I have more new images for the blog posts....  I found them back in the treasure trove of old posts...my own.  So many years of posts.  I doubt the photos are mine.

Well....what to do now....socks or no socks?????  House lights on or off?  Re-heat coffee a second time? Watch CSI- Vegas or New York....again?????  Finish reading my book.  The only character I am enjoying this time around is Ranger- Yo.  But that was always the way it went.   I am missing book Five. All the surrounding libraries are ALSO missing book Five.

Daily Notes for Wednesday, May 27th... Sunshine here in Coastal Maine. 76 degrees


 A repeat?   Short on images at the moment.  I deleted the image from the desktop so we won't see this one again.

Wu Peng has one flower this year.  A very nice one.   Almost the same color as the image up top but a bit darker.   For Readers who have been reading for over a decade or two or three- you know how long it took Wu Peng to actually make his first flower. (peony).    He arrived with that name printed on the instruction page.  Wo Peng always makes a lot of leaves.....so I know he is healthy. Just stubborn.

My neck bones are making a cracking sound when I turn my head or move my head up and down.

I imagined hearing the Lawn Guys.....I was wrong.  I think the noise I hear is the fridge doing things....

I don't have much more to type-   I have the remainder of the bag of paper to shred.   Yesterday it was sale contracts for houses I lived in decades ago.  Pretty soon I'll uncover my college quarterly grade reports. I already shredded the German House contracts.   Marianna and the office group in Frankfurt.....I missed you so much while doing that....tears came to my eyes......in waves,

It's going to be that sort of day....good memories...such good memories.  Christopher mentioned he missed Frau Loes...who came to clean every Wednesday.  And never moved any of HIS things even though she dusted under them.... both of us would love having her here in Maine.  We have dust. Lots of it.

Well, still no sign of the Lawn guys.... 

I'm working my way thru Three to Get Deadly---- Stephanie's Mom made Spice Cake.. (which means I NOW want spice cake) Mom..gave most of the cake to Joe to take home with him.... He was eating cake when Stephanie came home to find him in her apartment...well, after ALL the shooting in the parking lot. The Senior Citizens living there all have guns. Stephanie is wanted for murder and Ranger said helping her was a Hard NO..... Lula even said NO and she loves packing a gun..   Joe said Hell, No.   Get Deadly a good title.  I don't recall who is trying to shoot her......I was concentrating on the Spice Cake.

Daily notes for a warmish Maine Day. Tuesday the 26th. Where are the Lawn Guys?????


 Well, I have nothing to say.

I'm all out...  My neck is full of unresolved tension...I have no socks on so it must be warmer today than yesterday.  My Lunch Buddy is still completely booked with medical stuff for her husband. He's signed up for Cardiac Rehab...at lunchtime.  For a few weeks...or longer........ my husband did that.  I just shredded the paperwork.....

I am holding so much tension in my neck muscles I wonder why my head hasn't cracked off and fallen on the floor.  I can hear the bones when I move my head.   At least I am not crying while typing this... I got that over with while reading the morning paper.  The Suduko was above my pay grade as well.

That's it about it....I am going to grab some Tylenol...sit on the couch, rotate my neck muscles. Perhaps have a second cup of hot sweet tea.   Perhaps cry some more.

It happens....my Lunch Buddy is ALSO wondering when the Lawn Guys are going to show up... Grass is pretty high.  Yard looks terrible...  Green? yes, but like no one lives here. Like an abandoned house.

Son is back from Lunch.
