Budgies Conversing

Mar12

These two little budgies at the Dallas Zoo were talking away to each other.

My granddaughter and I planted our flowers yesterday, and then we had thunderstorms, perfect timing, though I got a little wet when I put zinnia seeds out at the last moment. The temperature dropped this morning, brrr. So glad we did all this yesterday.

We’re going to our favorite ice cream shop for a treat this afternoon, the first time in over a year since I’ve been.

Hope you are enjoying your day!

Female Goldfinch on the Backyard Feeder

Feb6

She’s trying to decide which wild bird seed she’s interested in.

Well, I have some good news. My initial biopsy results are clear. Waiting on the microscopic ones to come out in a couple of weeks.

I’m off to work on the book! Hope your day is filled with wonderful things.

Blue Jay and Red Bellied Woodpecker Showdown

Feb4

Who wins? The woodpecker is a juvenile and the blue jay normally doesn’t bow down to other birds. So what do you think? The woodpecker won. Sometimes, even if you’re the downtrodden little guy, the underdog, you still can make a difference.

Today is the bad, terrible, awful day. Yep, time for another bone marrow biopsy. It’s been about 5 months since I’ve had one, so much better than every month. But they’re awful, painful, and hurt for a couple of days or longer.

Got to run. Hope you have a fantastic day. Mine will be great once this is over. I have 5 other appointments also. Ugh.

Warbler Juvenile Learning to Fly

Feb1

I love them. I thought it was a very fat butterball goldfinch, until I realized it was a warbler. I got really close to her. She wasn’t sure about flying away. Really pretty little bird.

I finally managed a 1,000 words on Bear in Pursuit yesterday, hope to do more today. I’m kind of stuck on where to go on it.

Have a beautiful first day in February! It’s cold here!

Doves of Hawaii

Jan26

We didn’t lose our electricity!

Not feeling really great. Chemo, probably. I only managed to get a 1,000 words on Bear in Pursuit yesterday. I wish I felt better!

Hope you’re staying warm if you are in the frigid cold. It’s 24, feels like 14. Brrr.

The Woodpecker and the Cardinal

Sep12

Usually they don’t stand their ground, but these two did over the seeds in the feeder.

More appointments today, then free for 3 days. Yay!

I’m at the halfway point on Wolfish!

Hope your day is the best it can be!

A Sparrow and Female Cardinal

Sep11

They are both going after the seeds that were scattered by other birds on the feeder.

Well, the good news is that we have another 3-day weekend from drs appts.

The bad news is I went to reorder a pill they want me to take. For a 28-day supply, it was $13,760. So I need to ask them about that tomorrow at my appt.

The good news is that my CT scan for my lungs came out clear. I just have some scarring from the pneumonia in my left lung.

I managed to write 3,000 words yesterday also. Almost to the halfway point on Wolfish!

We’re off today, forgot to put out the trash. I’m off to write some more.

Have a wonderful day!

Cardinal Eating

Sep10

I only got 1,000 words written on Wolfish, but I had great medical news.

For the first time in over two years, my white blood cell count is normal! Platelets are normal! And Neutrophils are normal.

Red blood cells are slower to recover so they’re still low and can cause fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. Which I have. It makes me feel better knowing what the problem is that I feel these things when walking. Also hemoglobin is low. It will take time for the red blood cells to build back up.

Oh, and the bone marrow biopsy came back normal! So no new cancer cells! Still waiting on the DNA results.

We’re off to a CT scan this morning to see how my lungs are after having pneumonia and other doctor appointments.

Hope you all have a great day!

Blue Jay Drinking at the Fountain

Sep9

When the fountain wasn’t working, I was so disappointed. All the birds flock to it.

I reached 9,000 on Wolfish! I hope to make the novella about 30K.

Today and tomorrow, and Friday I have drs appointments. It looks like Thurs we have off and hopefully the weekend.

Hope your day is going fine!

Missing the Birds

Sep7

No food, no water, no birdsong.

I had been gone for 5 weeks, and my fountain wasn’t working when we had a power outage while I was in the hospital. I hadn’t been filling the bird feeders. It sounded quiet and sad.

Then I returned home to be with my son for the month, and he fixed my water fountain, and I began feeding the birds. They’ve flocked back to the yard and filled it with birdsong. I love it!

Hope birds singing fills your days!
