They're back!
I set out a new hummingbird feeder a week ago and was wondering if the birds would ever come back. Two days ago a big one appeared and stayed for long enough that I could get a good look at him. I was thrilled and to celebrate I fixed myself a big bowl of ice cream with chocolate sauce! By now there is another smaller bird, plus the "big boy", and I'm hoping more of them get the word. I just love seeing them and would like to get a picture although I've never been successful in photographing them since I've lived here, probably because I'm too old and decrepit and slow.
It was starting to rain when I went to the farmers market this morning, so I got what I wanted pretty quickly and left. By the time I got home the rain was much heavier.
Tonight is a Straw Hat Pizza & beer night! Jeannie and Joe and their families and I will enjoy the evening. I'm really looking forward to the beer.

Good And Bad Days
It seems that a good day is usually followed by a not-so-good day, and yesterday was one of those bad days. I had an early appointment to get my hair cut and didn't have the time or appetite to eat much breakfast. Donald dropped me off...

The sun was shining this morning so I did a load of wash. By the time I was across the street hanging it on the line, the overcast skies looked pretty dismal. I hung it all up anyway and the sun has been out again for most of the morning. ...

Improving
I've spent the day resting after being awake off and on all night. Joe came by to visit me this morning, and Jeannie stopped by on her way to work. Mike called from New York. Mike is flying to California tomorrow, and I'm looking forward...
