Blow the tree down

susandennisI'm starting to get twitchy about people who don't wear masks.. in my dreams! Last night Michele Dockery kept talking to me with no mask on. Selfish bitch. I've seen the people she hangs out with, no telling what she could pass on to me. Geesh.
But, also, in real life, people need to learn to talk while keeping their masks in place. TV news interviewers seem to have gotten the hang of it but interviewees can't seem to go two sentences without revealing their nostrils. It's not like this mask wearing thing started yesterday. People, get your shit together!
We are having wind gusts here today and my tree is weaving like a drunk. The last windstorm we had, a couple of weeks ago tore a large limb off the tree across the street. They are both london planes which are urban sycamores that are bred for city life. They aren't beautiful. They are fair indescribable. But, that limb gives me hope. The tree was planted after I moved in. For the first 10 years or so I had an unobstructed view 12 months out of every year. When it got to his level, my then neighbor one floor below me cut off a huge chunk and very nearly got arrested for it. (Plants and animals, here in Seattle, are valued greater than people.) In the last 20 years, my view for 6 months is completely obstructed. It's a little better once the damn leaves fall off but not great. I just wish it would fall right over. But, it won't.
Goodness, I'm a complainer this morning! That's gotta stop. Now.
Ok. No big plans for today. TV and crochet. The usual. This is my grocery store week - Wednesday - so I need to start working on my list. So far it's too short to even bother with. I keep saying I need to eat my way to an empty freezer and I keep not doing that. I need to change my ways.
But, first, I need to make my bed and take a shower and get this day going before it gets gone on its own!
