Thursday, August 17, 2023 Mostly sunny Windy Warm Beautiful 79 Degrees 4:42 p.m.
It has been a quiet day around here. A bit warmer then yesterday according to the news but as far as I can tell it has been about the same. The birds aren’t as plentiful now so I am thinking fall must be on its way. The hummingbirds are still eating well but the other birds are not coming around as much. The red headed woodpecker is still here and comes to dine several times a day, and the wrens and sparrows, but I haven’t seen the rest of the birds in a few days. Not since the last major thunderstorm. I guess the storm scared them all away. I do hear the katydids at night so they are still here and doing well. The yellow jackets are now alive and well around here.
Tina is bringing dinner home this evening so that is a huge help as far as I’m concerned. We are having Dairy Queen’s chicken tender baskets. They are pretty good and filling and checks off all the squares. I haven’t felt the best today, probably because 1. I started a new med from the doctor, and 2, I stayed up late reading last night. The book is so good. The characters are in the middle of an ice storm, trying to chip off ice from their jeep to go rescue a mom and he small son from the storage container that they are living in. The power is off and it is below zero. I finally put the book down and turned off the light as I couldn’t see through blurry eyes.

Have a great rest of your Thursday. Make it a educational, cheering, enthusiastic, winning, and fun day. (I believe there is a football game on this evening.)
