THE IMPRESSIONISTS
« on: March 17, 2020, 12:31:40 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were impressionistic like Debussy's music, and now it is time for you to post until Debussy's cows come home.

Here is a picture of an actual dried four-leaf clover that's been hanging in my kitchen for a few years.  A former co-worker had it and gave it to me when she retired. :)

I don't know what it means, but I'm sure that it would be a good word to remember for Scrabble! ;D

Well, I'm going to go to bed and attempt to get up at a reasonable time.  I can't sleep in for two weeks (or more) and then be able to get to work on time once we start up again, so I'll try to keep some semblance of a normal schedule..."try" being the operative word. ;)

Have a good day, all!

Annabelle is congested again, and it's breaking my heart that I cannot afford a vet visit.  On top of that. the money I had for Thatch's echocardiogram is being eaten away by this quarantine.  I never, ever thought I'd end up in such a quagmire in my old age.

Start your day with some penguins. I visited the Shedd in November.

DR John G, your ma might enjoy Carl Hiaasen.  I really love his books.  His forthcoming book Squeeze Me sounds really wonderful.

As soon as I make the bed and take my meds, I'm off to East 57th Street/  I think I'll take the crosstown bus at 79th to Lexington and take a Lexington Avenue bus to 57th Street.  I have no idea ar rtgew moment how frequently any bus is running!

I slept in slightly later than usual. Not much, maybe half an hour, but it resulted in another crazy dream that combined a few themes as well as people from totally separate walks of my life.

Kitty feeding is done, a delicious slice of 10,985-grain toast has been eaten, and I’m enjoying a cup of tea in the recliner before getting myself moving. Today, don’tcha know, is cooking day. Corned beef, baby. And then cabbage, potatoes, and carrots.

Oh, and ....... SNOW!

We got snow! Just a thin covering that only stuck to grass and some trees. But how utterly disorienting! It’s like...the beginning of winter or something. We haven’t seen snow since nearly January.

I must gather some good music to listen to whilst slaving over a hot stove.

It is very nice and a sweet reminder of your co-worker.
