It's another sunny day here, but tomorrow some showers come and Thursday will have lingering showers, which are to stop. DH will try to burn trash, since there is a limit to the size of the outdoor fire, it needs to be small, so he'll slowly baby-step it keeping a hose nearby and keep an eye on it.
I turned off my dawn simulator, got up just after 8:30 a.m., so tired. Took my generic Zantac, waited until time to eat, d2s, since I showered late last night, and will s2s again this evening. I have a red border to finish on DGS-5.5's Christmas afghan. I'd love to get it 4" - 5" around, but it seems to be a never-ending square round around and around and barely increases in size! I get frustrated, then my fingers/hands get tingling from so much work on it, and I put it down to rest it. I'll try to get it done today though.
I had to change my Anti-Procrastination Day to Thursday because having it on Wednesday along with Desk Day was too much in 1 day. Just too much at once. Will "see" how this works out.
I can't find a TV Hallmark Series on our Cable TV Hallmark channels. It's called "When Calls the Heart," created by Michael Landon Jr., based on Janette Oke's books. She's a pioneer writer, and from what I've "heard", she writes clean romances in pioneer times. Sometimes you can find a free Janette Oke e-book at sites on-line, too.
I'VE HAD SO MUCH FUN THIS MORNING!!!!! We have the most adorable tiny birds! There are some grey & tan ones. Then, there are these cutie-patootie ones! They've got black heads and backs and wings with white around their face & neck, along the wings. They fly like it's almost the speed of sound, just KIDDING, but they fly from the trees to the bird feeder to the bushes to the mogahetti with a planting of sedums and succulents and back and forth really fast. I laughed and laughed watching them. Oh, if only I could bottle up THEIR ENERGY and sip some of it! I'd get all my housework done lickity split within 20 minutes- TOPS! They were a morning delight. I used to think how "OLD" Dmil sounded when she talked about the birds at the bird feeders! Like, why doesn't this woman have a "life" outside her health problems and just family? But NOW, as an oldster, I realize the happiness, entertainment and fun bird-watching can give us all. They're cute, their songs are pretty, and sometimes, when they drink water at the birdbath, they bob down, sip, bob up, rest, and up and down they go over and over again. Head-bobbing water drinkers is what they are. Our cat's not as fond of them as I am, because she's an indoor-only cat because of several coyotes in our woods and sometimes a cougar, too. We want her safe.

LadyM, I'm so glad LO is much better. I'm glad his cough has improved and he might be hoarse from those tubes they use sometimes, when you're under. I noticed, after 2 major surgeries, how I was hoarse. I hope his stomach muscles get better soon. Yes, he might have exercises them a lot from fighting after waking from surgery. I'm glad he's eating and making good choices. Oh, that is a problem, about the ointment at school. I don't know how you'd handle that either. Glad everything else is going A-OKay.
Waving to Dee, Lucylee, Twins' Mom, Kathryn, Nancy, and MT. Have a super afternoon!
