Hello Monday

During my lazy weekend I managed several naps. But mostly, I enjoyed feeding the birds and making sure the bird baths were full.

We are getting quite a show from the odd couple. I call them that because I have witnessed the darnedest thing. A beautiful red male cardinal is being seduced by a brown non-cardinal. We think she is a female purple finch which is brown. But not sure. I am positive she is not a red bird (cardinal). She sits on the bird feeder and does that little quivery helpless thing and he watches her and then they both cock their head back and forth (talking). Then he gets a seed from the feeder and feeds her. Have you ever seen that? The other morning, I was watching out the kitchen window while this love fest was going on and eventually he flew off. I kept watching as she appeared to be waiting. Sure enough, moments later he landed on the feeder with a juicy bug or worm and fed her. After which they took flight together out of sight. They seem to be a couple. Odd.

Regina, it's on the way. Thank you for being so patient with me. Just watch for the above.

And a big thank you to my commenter persons. I love hearing from you and I can't seem to catch up on my returns visits so I will start fresh this week. We still have lots of hot days of summer left here in Texas. I always thought I was a summer person but this year it's getting me.

Under new business: I received an envelope from Washington state just full of the most wonderful napkins. And this envelope had no name or return address inside or out. Let me thank you please.

Today I received a nice little stash of envelopes from Dragonlady in Florida. Thank you Brenda. And Brenda, I'm thinking the sisters will be going to the beach soon......probably Flamingo Beach. Do you know where that is?

OK, one last bit of Old Business: Today we celebrate 46 years. However, there doesn't seem to be a celebration planned. Other than he's gonna cook.

Enough,

Sharon
