GOT TO HURRY

Got stuff to do. I am so slow lately. It takes me longer. But I do what I can. Covid shot is a big thing around here. Got to get in line that is very determined to be always first. I admit, I am too. 

I observe the birds every morning. Get to know some of them. A certain one comes and sits and looks and waits on the side of the feeder. He is looking and looking, but waiting to eat. He is patient but he waits. Finally in "she" comes with flurry and they dive in to eat together. Same thing every morning. My he is patient.

p. s. don't tell me I have nothing to do. 

back don't know what happened

And we are back. The birds are a part of SCV. So they have to stand in line a lot. Tomorrow we stand in line our Covid Booster. We already got the flu shot. So I have my day planned. I do need a haircut. When, I don't know how to fit all my active life in. Ha Ha Ha.

this is in two parts. Interesting

WAITING IN LINE

 The birds were slow to come. Wanted to stay in bed at 29 degrees. But they did finally come. A lot of them. They had to stand in line all lined up on the rail and wait there turn. As one would hop out, another took it's place. Really!!! That is the way we do here at SCV. Wait your turn. Well.

COLD BUT BEAUTIFUL TODAY,

 Yes, tis time.  I wore a sweat shirt yesterday. Linda gave me 2 new ones. It felt good. I met a Happy man yesterday going down the hall telling everyone--"Happy Day After".  He must have had a good one. I think all my people have the right idea. traveling. I found myself starring at a large photo hanging in my bedroom. Me and Truman on top of Pikes Peak. Several of my family have or still are traveling. Love it!!!!  Go when you can. You will be glad you did. I saw a big jet take off through the sky, taking someone  somewhere. It made a beautiful stream in the air. You know what?  I have stopped wanting to go some place else. Home sounds good to me. But I do love to hear about others and their travels. As I found myself starring at Truman and me on top of Pikes Peak I remembered it well.  Good memories are almost like being there again.

DIFFERENT KIND OF DAY

 But a nice  one.

Smaller amount around the table. Used my Mother's silverware. Wish she could see it being used. Different food, but Amy has mastered the cornbread dressing just like or better than Mother's.  I could have made a meal of the relish dishes A#2 brought. Along with A#1, they covered it well.  Carving the Cornish hens really was better than a big old turkey  for Ed.  Lady peas brought us back to  Summer as we enjoyed them. So much more was enjoyed. Maybe next gathering will be bigger.  The more the better. Well I will settle down to oatmeal and banana. Still good.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY

 Cold and not so bright. But the sun is shinning behind the clouds. Hope you are with those you love. Ours are scattered as far as distant countries where they do not celebrate the same as we do. Our crew gets smaller as we speak.  One dropped because getting sick and his mate is staying with him. They just got back from a trip to see their kids in another state. Maybe picked up something not to pass on. Please get well fast.  Down to 4.  We will remember this one.  

BETTY(Oh my) BOOP

p. s. maybe we should drive the highway and pick up a few homeless.

SOMETHING NEW

 We are having Cornish Hens instead of turkey. First for everything. Looking forward to those cute little babies. The rest is traditional. Just 6 of us. One is a guest. Glad to have a friend to be with us. I remember the "olden" days. Just leave them in the Memory  Bank and enjoy TODAY. I know everything will be very good. I raised good cooks.  Always trying to to do special things.  

O.K. that's all for today. Will tell it all tomorrow.
