Hello Mr. Cardinal!
Someone else's photo. Isn't it strange that a creature that's been around so long got named after someone's position in a church which has only existed 2 thousand years. No wonder these beauties look at us askance so often!
Feeling kind of out of it for writing. Plus dentist appointment early this morning. I'll let you know tomorrow how I did!
And a bit ah ha...which is definitely the source of my recurring and awful cough problems. I have a Brita Filter Pitcher. I scrubbed it out the last time I changed the filter at the beginning of the month. Hot soapy water and then bleach water.
But tonight there were 2 big fronds of mold waving at me from the bottom in the water (which I had just had my 3rd glass of for the day!) Geese. I'll try to take a photo. It is definitely trash!
Now wouldn't it have been nice if that was penicillin there!
News of family came in a phone call last night. My granddaughter's next door apartment burned yesterday, but hers wasn't damaged, except the firement clawed open her ceiling to make sure there was no fire up there. The fire-wall between the framed wood apartment held it back. But now she's looking for a place to roost temporarily. So glad nobody was hurt, and her things just have insulation and wallboard all over them.
And then...updated 7:33 am. The dentist office just called and canceled my appointment. I was half dressed. Two more weeks. But I don't feel normal now...getting up so early and nothing to do!
Today's quote:
Gratitude is the way the heart remembers––remembers kindnesses, cherished interactions with others, compassionate actions of strangers, surprise gifts, and everyday blessings. |
