My keyboard has a bad key. I cannot type an H. I have to copy and paste one from a sheet where I have small and capitalized h’s. It is driving me crazy. I looked up solutions but none worked. My friend minicapt was always my MAC guy. He’d give me the solutions which usually solved the problems. Now I’ll have to take this to the Apple store. I would have a dog named Henry.

It poured yesterday. The rain was so heavy it drowned out every sound except the pounding on the roof. It reminded me of rain falling on the tin roof of my House in Ghana. I loved it.

Today is cloudy and damp, but it feels warm. Nothing is stirring, not a branch, not a leaf. The trees in the backyard are still winter bare. They are framed by the cloudy sky and look like silhouettes.

My front garden has hyacinths blooming. They are pink, blue and purple. On the forsythia the yellow buds are almost flowers. I am hungry for their color.

My dog has mastered the dog door, coming and going. The remaining problem is he hasn’t yet figured out he can go whenever he wants. Henry goes up and down the hall a few times which prompts my asking if he needs out. That’s like giving permission so out he goes.

My larder is still full including my freezer, but the food just hasn’t tickled my Taste Buds. Last night I drove to Dennisport and bought Thai food. The coconut shrimp was my favorite. I also bought chicken satay, scallion pancakes and a noodle dish with vegetables. I have enough for my supper tonight. My taste buds are happy.

I am watching The Day Time Ended. A family is living in the Desert in a solar house. An alien construction appears and disappears. Green lights shine in a couple of rooms. A tiny green alien appears to the grandmother and the granddaughter. Lights fly toward the house from the sky. Aliens fight each other outside the house and try to get inside to kill the family. A UFO saves the family by transporting them to the future. They are still in the desert. They leave the safety of their house and begin riding horses across the desert. They see their missing son-in-law, daughter and granddaughter and a domed city. They are saved. I lasted through this entire movie. There must be some sort of a award.

The clouds are nearly gone. I can see the sun and a blue sky. Maybe it will be good day after all.
