Can that date be right?

Standard

Wow, has it been that long since I posted here? I guess so.

It is snowing here, 6 inches is a lot of snow for this area. The birds have been eating like birds in the cold and at the end of the day the feeder at the window was close to empty and a cardinal was looking in the window. I like to think he was wondering where I was, what the hell was wrong with me and why didn’t I get outside and put more food in the feeder right now.


I now have a full-time job. The good part is that I have insurance now.


The husband has a job now. The good part is that he has insurance.

The funny part  is we can not afford to use it.


BUT (Yes the big but.) I think my job will be gone in about 6 or 7 months because of funding and his depends on the number of children so who knows.

An apple a day.

Standard

Marshmallow Peep is a frumpy little bird that comes to the window to eat sunflower seeds. She would hang on the screen look at me and chirp. She did not fly away like the other birds. I got the feeling she was asking for something so I put pieces of apple in a little pocket in the storm windows that is there when the outer glass bottom is up.

Now when there is no apple Marshmallow Peep hangs on the screen and looks into the house and peeps until I go out and put apple slices in the little pocket.

Miss Peep has me well trained.
