Apparently the unwillingness to obey a
yield sign is at an epidemic proportion. No one yields and when I do the victim
of my yield freaks out. They react with some kind of nervous anxiety. Looking
in all directions, their eyes popping from the sockets they rest in, sweat
beads on their foreheads. I smile and wave them on through. Yet still they
hesitate. What is this place we live in?
It has finally gotten dark enough again in
the early morning for me to enjoy my walks. It is still too hot but at least
the sun is not appearing. I had the company of the moon and three stars, Venus,
Jupiter and Aldebaran. The star Aldebaran is an Alpha Tauri which means it is a
giant red star and is the eye of the constellation Taurus.
It is an Arabic word
meaning follower. It is 44.2 times the diameter of the sun and is 65.1 light years
away. Aldebaran is known in Hindu
astronomy as one of the 27 daughters of Daksha and the wife of the god Chandra.
There is a brief description of this star in the Lord of the Rings. It is on
the night that Frodo, Sam and Pippin stay with the elf Gildor. If you are up at 6 look to the east you will
see them.
I get to take a peek at my new apartment on
Tuesday. I am so excited. It will be a big day; Luncheon, Apartment, dinner
with Mother and an afternoon with my favorite Shoe. I also have found the
perfect shower curtain for the bath. You must all come visit me and check it
out. Now I think I just need 2 more large boxes and I will be done.
I am calling 800 GOT JUNK today for them to
relieve me of my sofa, love seat, table, 6 chairs and a desk. Do they pick up
unwanted furniture? I guess I will find out.

My gardener is coming today so Lady Tamara www.LairdOfLochaber.com must bring in the tool box she washed. Yes I washed a tool box. It was filthy
and since I will no longer have a garage it needed to be clean and user
friendly. Go ahead laugh! I now know what is in the boxes, Yes, boxes I have 2
tool boxes. Yes I am a girl! If you need the flathead screwdriver I know which
box is it in. Wood glue, 5/8 crescent
wrench, level, wood screws, finishing nails. Yeah I know where they are.

Look at me! I can chat about stars, Lord of
the Rings and hand you a crescent wrench while making a batch of sugar cookies
all at the same time. Home repairs will never be boring around me. Hey…. I
could use this for a profile on MarryMe.com
Gotta go!
