Greene Street Market

I heard the alarm sound at 8 but stayed in bed until 8:30. I drank water and read e-mail. The eye specialist called to say he'd seen the pictures from my eye doctor and wanted to take another look because the spot he saw in my eye was not like the one in the picture. He wants to be sure he didn't miss anything and can't believe such a thing would disappear. I read e-mail until the phone rang and it was his office wanting to set up the appointment. I made juice, and then breakfast. There was a lot of clean up between the two juicers. I cut strips from fabric that I trimmed from a Linus quilt. I wasn't sure if they would want it back in binding strips or as border size. I needed a project to work on for Stitch-its. I looked at possible borders for the 16-patch quilt. Then I noticed the time. So I grabbed the quilt that I took Tuesday, and drove over. It never came out of its bag. Marjorie showed me her living trust in a book. I talked about estates with a nurse sitting near me. We also talked about grief. Her daughter was in a neck brace. We all left about 2. When I got home, I finished breakfast, ate an apple, and laid in the sun. Chris came home at 3.  He took my car to have the oil changed while I mowed the back lawn, washed up and wrote a check for grass-fed meat. Chris drove us to the Greene street market. I got out and stood in line to pick up the two beef tongues and one heart that I ordered. (I am not sure how to prepare beef heart, but how hard can it be?) Chris parked and then joined me in line. They were also selling eggs and it reminded me that I meant to bring them my empty egg cartons. I had never been there and wanted to look around, but Chris was ready to go.  When we got home, Chris fixed himself supper. I checked e-mail and read about an opt out list to protect privacy. So I looked up my name on spokeo.com and opted out all of the listings. It was scary how much info they had on me, and it was for sale. We went for a walk, longer than the one several days ago, but in the opposite directions so it seemed easier. When we got back, I ate a slice of beef and had a tomato with greens picked in the yard. I made up a week's worth of supplements. After 7, I went back out to mow. I finished the back yard, the side yard and most of the front yard. The mowing was easy since the grass had been mowed recently. When I came in, Chris was ready to watch TV. We watched our last two episodes of X-Files first season. That is the only season we have, so I don't know what we'll watch tomorrow, unless it is fireworks.
