HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I hope everyone has a safe, joyful week.
Hard snow and high winds on my patch tonight. The red Northern Cardinals were feeding frantically until darkness fell. They were pulling the poor hibernating wasps out of their nest and eating them. I had to clean and disinfect my boots at dusk because I stepped in coyote scat (poo) when I went to the mailbox!
Hello to all.
Another one from Tuesday for Diane especially. You may just be able to make out Conwy Castle in the centre distance.
Lindybird said:Depressing news at the moment with a lot of strikes either beginning or being threatened. Do these people not realise that if they all get a rise, the inflation will continue?? It could be an ever ongoing circle of effect.
Not sure what choice they have, if they are in full-time work without their pay covering their necessary expenses. I wish someone would have a quiet word with those companies making monster profits out of power and fuel - if those costs dropped for us all, perhaps more people could make ends meet.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Good grief Wrote a long note; got distracted, didn't hit Reply to Thread. Summary: Had good time with grandson, new partner and daughter. OH knocked out by Covid Bivalent shot the day before, but got up in the meantime. Now doing files tidy up with one eye on the World Cup (Netherlands vs. Ecuador) and the UK/USA match later. Ms. D will root for US and I of course for the UK.
Diane: Saw a silly quiz of the 'which would you prefer....." type. One option was "Spend quality time with family...." and here I was thinking why not "Spend quality time without family." :-))
RUSTY: That is such a pristine, peaceful area. Lovely! Thanks for the photo. I would love to visit the area. I have gotten the impression that Wales has a lot of passenger trains. I'd love to take a train trip there.
Hallo All: Well nothing too exciting with the World Cup. While I was watching I went through a lot of our files, most of which ended up in the shredder. I also dumped all my hardcopy files from my assignments for the magazine (still have digital files) Next are the two stand-up files jammed with folders on my desk. Lindybird: Yes, re family - true on both counts. :-) Take care all.
