Feathered Friends

I started putting out seed last week. Today the finches found the table and arrived in a mob. These are goldfinches in their winter coats.  Now I am hoping some house finches to show up.  We used to have mobs of them but not in the last five years or more.

I have had most of my plants in since our several frosty nights.  It wasn’t cold enough to kill the petunias so I may still bring a few more in. Most of them are reseeds and sort of a purple. Every once in a while there is a pretty sport.  I have a pink and a purple and white that should bloom in few weeks.

Things are loading oddly. Here are some Santas and a Wizard. These are handbuilt. Sometimes I throw a basic form. It all depends on what I am doing at the time. These are all whistles.

Here are some of the plants I mentioned earlier.

Stay safe in these fraught times.

As always, thanks for stopping by.........*s*

Here We Go Again

 I am indeed going through another bout of Lyme. Saw my doc yesterday for what was basically a follow up appointment.  Showed her a bite I got less than a week ago, which was already showing a ring. Immediately prescribed three weeks of antibiotics.

 At least I don’t have to worry about reaction to sun, but it’s still a drag.  I am more annoyed than anything.

GRRRRR!!!

We’ll see, grasshopper......we’ll see.......

As always, stay safe, enjoy the weekend, and, as always, thanks for stopping by...........*s*

Fall Flowers

Thanks to our long autumn with no frost my morning glories are finally starting to bloom.  This is a shot I took with my iPad.  There will be better ones from my camera.

I planted them very late in July.  With any luck they will bloom for several more weeks.

This is outside my second story bedroom window. The idea was that I would have morning glories to look at when I woke up.

We’ll see, grasshopper.........we’ll see.......

As always, stay safe and thanks for stopping by.............*s*

It’s Always Sumthin’: Part ???

 Woke up this morning with weird pain under my arm, spreading across chest. First half asleep thought was “OMG! Heart attack!”

NO!  A deer tick! Embedded in my armpit, hitting a nerve. Got it off. Will keep an eye out. I have a feeling this might be a bad one.

Watch out for them. 

Just when you thought it was safe to go in the woods......

We’ll see, grasshopper........we’ll see.............

As always, stay safe, and  thanks for stopping by...........*s*
