Yesterday stayed pretty overcast and gloomy all day....
I walked into the living room and there was a noise in the wood stove. A bird was inside.
(this is not my picture...found it on the internet...it must happen a lot!) Propped open the front door and the screen, got a big piece of newspaper in my hand, slowly opened the stove door, and out flew Mr. Birdie! He was nervous and finally did head to the door after I wildly waved my hands. This has happened, probably once a year, and I never have taken a picture. My only concern is the bird and getting him to freedom. They seem so joyous when they finally go through the open door. If they could talk I'm sure I would hear a
"YAAAAAAAAA HOOOOOOOO"!
So, walked out the back door and there was a deer eating apples. Scared the doe and she took off. I put out some corn for the birds and when I came back from taking trash to the road for pick up tomorrow, she was back. She didn't run, but kept an eye on Maggie and me.
Had to really laugh... my neighbor Frank waved me over when I was coming back from the trash run. He, very seriously, asked, "Do you yell at me like you do Gerard when I use my leaf blower?" "Whaaaaa?" Apparently on Thanksgiving morning when I was fed up with the neighbor up on the hill above me blowing leaves for hours on hours...
I was out on my front deck and yelled, "FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO STOP THAT IRRITATING NOISE?!!!!" He couldn't hear me, natch, because he was operating the blower, but it certainly relieved my irritation to yell about it! See, here's another reason I hated living in the city, aside from traffic and crime, was the danged gardeners who were constantly assaulting us with noise from lawnmowers and blowers! Now you have to understand that Frank and Cindy live down by my gate which is about 200 yards. Frank was standing on his back deck when I let loose with my frustration. LOL LOL LOL. OMG so funny. Frank said, "If you are going to yell at me, make sure my blower is off so I can hear you." Do I have fun and funny neighbors, or what! Ok, Frank, next time! :o)
I cried! Great video! Thanks Dave Aguilar! (Wilsonite....!)

Cooking my turkey today. Will put "Alexander" in about 10. Will make decadent butter laden stuffing and after the bird is done will make thick dark luscious gravy! Will have that along with some of Jeannie's awesome cranberry relish! Mmmmm mmm mmm... Tomorrow is turkey sandwich day!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.
