It's not every day that I wish I could restart from the moment my feet hit the floor. Today, July 20th 2018, started at midnight by my deciding to watch a movie that I knew was going to end sometime around 3:30 am. It was The Candidate with Robert Redford.
I didn't know that at 3:00 a.m. my connection to Netflix is cut off for a while so that things Netflix and other services are totally up-to-date by 3:08. This meant that I missed the end of the movie and had to go to IMDB to find out if Robert Redford became a senator. By then I didn't much care but it seemed the appropriate thing to do.
I slept in a bit this morning but that was not a bad thing in itself. It's just that any longer and the plastic container underneath the kitchen sink would have leaked all over the under-the-sink shelves and all the weird and possibly useless things we keep there.
Why was water leaking? I fear that it might have been because I had used the sink to clean earth off the succulent plants that I intended to make more attractive by moving to a big beautiful copper bowl I'd half-filled with new stones I'd bought (I know, I should have searched for them near the house).
No matter what caused it, water makings its way to the shelves under the sink is not a good thing.
I wonder what I'm going to be able to eat for lunch....I've blocked off my cupboards but luckily I seem to have lost my appetite.
And this is what the copper bowl looks like now.

Bluesfest Past
Today, I just happened to catch something on YouTube that has been haunting me in a strange way. I hadn't been able to remember either the single artist or the group she was singing with, but I have often had wisps of this music floating in my brain as I wake up. I had heard the Pentatonics, and been charmed and excited to learn how much work they have put out, and I had been lucky enough to see the single artist, Lindsey Stirling at Bluesfest a while ago. Not really seen her, because I was watching from my patio, which allows you to hear Bluesfest but is not close enough or high enough to even bother trying to enhance your enjoyment by sighting the artist.
I want to thank my neighbour Gil for his hint that the girl with the violin would be worth being out on the patio.
Do give yourself an amazing experience.
