Have fun at brekkie!

Hbd 🎂 Nuevo Mexico! Grandson orientation went well; first placement test today. Got him a 4 color pen. Remember those beauties from France? 🇫🇷 Ooo la la! I got myself one, too, because nostalgia at $3.99 was worth it. Have humidifiers going full blast. So dry.

Incompetence, brutality and corruption is more accurate.

Lavender Fabulous by the gallon sprayed around the garage and the car tires. We also put in a $600 "cage" to keep them out of the cabin filter. On a base level Rav4. Yep. 🐭

Not just that. Up to four feeders, three baths plus the heated one, a hummingbird feeder, and a metal trash can with lid for the seed, a "no mess" blend. Suet, a taller feeder pole, and a mouse nest in the Toyota cabin filter because they got into the garage before the metal can. An Odyssey.

Don’t be using William Shatner and “was” in the same sentence, please. #whew

Yeah that's how I started too, thinking during Covid he'd love to step up his bird feeding/watering game. Hundreds of $$$ later...

Pic from a past winter, obvs

They're NOT LUMPY pillows. They're NOT. They're NAZI pillows, priced at $14.88.

Heated on right vs not heated.

Ok, but I can attest they really work and the birds are so grateful!

We have a tree full of robins, and this year it's not just the crabapple tree they love/nest in usually. Tons. Put the heated birdbath out because they're all desperate for water now.

She wants to go to UCLA like Jordan Chiles

Then in Las Cruces for state in the spring. Perhaps we can meet for tea?

Specifically first on beam and floor, second on vault and bars, and first overall. Her friend took 2nd. Both families went out to celebrate - joyous! They did really well. Booked trips to gymnastics in Denver and Tx. She's got 3 out of state tourneys this winter - Salt Lake is later. One more in Abq

Grandson is here - a fun weekend welcoming him and seeing step daughter. Chile. Hibachi dinner and show. Still have leftovers, but in goes a grocery order as he loves bananas and we're out of milk. He's at orientation this morning. Granddaughter took 1st at her tournament - the 1st of the season. 🥇

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bulbs yet. No.

It's pricey, but Wild Birds (does Cruces have one?) has a "no mess" blend - all seed, no shells. It's a wonder.
