My neighbor has the ponds the geese fly in and out of. I get to watch and listen to them without the damage. I like watching them fly over.

Not fond of snakes either, but keep the black ones. I make lots of noise before entering my old shed, and look up in the rafters. They have scared me.

Still at work, arm still sore from yesterday.

The rain held off today, so the insurance adjuster/appraisor/inspector, or whatever you call them, was a very nice young man who went all around the house, then up on the roof, and when he came down, said that we do need a new roof.

I hope that's good news, Bird.

The roof on the first place I bought failed the per-purchase inspection, and the owner had another roof (asphalt shingle) nailed over top of the existing one. Ten years later when I sold the place, it failed again. It seems the manufacturer of the shingles was involved in a class action lawsuit, and the settlement covered half the cost. I had a little trouble finding a roofer that would nail on a third layer of shingles, but eventually did. That was probably 20 or so years ago, probably too long ago to apply to your roof, but I thought it worth mentioning.

No snakes allowed here, they eat chicken eggs.

Was glad to hear Coco is getting back to "her" normal. Hope things get better.

I need to mow today, still waiting on mower roller bearings for The Beast. I guess I will break out some other equipment if the fields are not too soft. We just got a decent shower for about 5 minutes.

Yucky story. So you remember me saying we still had cracks in the yard leftover from last year's drought? After the 3" rain we got last week, I was walking across the backyard and I saw what looked like a cherry colored bubble on the ground. It was a toad that had not got out of the crack in time as the clay swelled from the rain. Apparently, it had croaked before he had a chance to give his last proper croak. I saw another near him, and he was stuck. I got out my small shovel and freed him. Free the toads! The cat will probably do him in too. Mean cat.

Daughter and wifey will start Prom preparations tonight, doing toenail and fingernail painting....and practicing on the makeup.....again.

With so many easy-to-catch toads, the snakes won't need eggs, just Atlas gloves.

No snakes here. My favorite is the wasp/ hornet aerosol that shots 20 ft.

Pleasant surprise in town as our favorite breakfast place was open. First time will have been there in more than a year.

Lots of empty spaces in HD electrical dept and wire not only scarce but expensive. I really feel for anyone have to build right now.

As for Hand & Foot, 3-2 Guys favor up to this week.

Here's a good report that says to only use white sugar when feeding hummingbirds. Plain white sugar in water.

Amazing Nature & Wildlife : This is a hummingbird unable to retract her tongue, which is a sign of fungal spores that have germinated on her tongue or in her gullet caused by folks mixing honey or anything other than plain white sugar with water

Randy, glad you are home. Hope meds help.

electricians just left, new service installed, took two guys 7 hours.

hopefully next week a/c guy will come and this project will be done.

much less pain in shoulder but can't raise my arm yet...think I need to be tortured by some PT person

You do know what PT stands for .... PREMEDITATED TORTURE !

Bruising is progressing... found a couple more. One right on top of the new knee.... I have been having some issues walking since yesterday afternoon, the tendons behind the knee are really complaining. I'm sure they got stretched / irritated.

Today, just took my time walking and did some of the PT exercises, seemed to help.

Drew, glad your shoulder is doing good! Try to take it easy....(said by the guy who can't stay still for more than 5 minutes). I feel for 'ya....

I still need to read more posts to get caught up.....
