Today I learned on the radio that
watering the garden in the evening is not a good idea. That has been my favored
watering time. Instead the best time to water gardens is in the morning between
5:00 and 9:00. Even at noon is better than at night. The night watering is bad because
the water sits on the leaves overnight when there is little wind to blow it
off. Molds and other diseases flourish in that type of environment.
The real reason I do not want to know
this is that it requires a change in my lifestyle. I get up early, but I do not
go to the garden immediately upon rising. Rain is best; however it does not always
put in the required amount when needed.
The lipstick that I bought today had
been opened with a broken seal, unfortunately I did not notice until I was
home. I suspect that cosmetics are not taken back if the seal is broken. It never
occurred to me to check. Guess that is a lesson learned. In the future I must look
the container over. This too is not something I really wanted to learn.
I bought a new dress today; actually
with deals it was a free dress. I thought the dress, in the store light, was a
dark blue. It has a v-neck which is a style I do not usually wear. There were
two other women in the fitting room area so even though they were strangers to
me I asked for their opinion of this dress on me. One of them suggested that a
short necklace would look quite fine with it. I instantly thought of a necklace
with a dark blue stone that Leroy had gotten me some time ago. When I pulled
this dress out of the bag at home I saw that it was really a deep purple. I did
not want to learn about that. Perhaps I saw that before, but did not let the
fact of color intrude. Leroy and I think I might be able to wear the necklace
anyway as they are both quite dark. Shall I just pretend I am color blind if it
does not work?
