Our deck flowers may be history in a few weeks.

Our house looks a bit in disarray because of everything happening. No choice. It will look even worse when all of the interior wall painting starts. At the end, we'll barely recognize the place. It better yield good money. We need it.

I believe that our hummingbirds have finally left our area. We haven't seen any for almost a week. They're heading southwest towards Mexico. Europe does not have hummingbirds or select other birds we see in the US Mid Atlantic region. It will be sad not to see them next year. But I'll meet some new flying folks. That will be nice. Attached is a photo of one of our girls at the hummingbird feeder a while back.
Oh yes the painting and everything being moved..Argh It about kills me when we paint. I have always done one room at a time, Paint then next day everything is back where it belongs. I need to paint my daughters old bedroom and the guest room.. But I have to wait until Fall arrives and we can have windows wide open and fans blowing ..

Fresh paint is always a good investment when selling.

Oh yes you will have to learn about lots of new birds.. We didnt see any this year, Very odd.

I hope you can allow yourself some time today to just relax
