Thanks for the pictures, Suze. They remind me of my Dad and his love of nature.

Suze, I'm so happy that you are registered. You will make a brilliant addictions counsellor!

Good morning again love. ♥

So, I have been watching these two run all around the yard together. They are cute babies and seriously funny.



And as for the birds, sheesh, we have already filled this twice, and we only got it on Sunday I think...

Congratulations, wonderful Suze, you are amazing! Addiction counselling sounds like your perfect career move. Xx

I love your garden, with the squirells and cardinals. We don't have cardinals in uk, that I know of, I may be wrong, they're beautiful.

I'd never even heard of them before Mags.....I had been told that the birds here were magnificent, but this is beyond my wildest dreams.

And thank you my love. Yes, finally, after all these years on this journey I am ready to do this....I am EXCITED about this course.

So, some drama today.....earlier a squirrel shattered our lovely lantern, not great, but not terrible because the squirrel wasn't hurt. And then just now a bird flew into the glass door. Our feeder is nowhere near the door, so it wasn't anyone's fault; these birds just play so aggressively. I saw the poor thing lying on the step and grabbed some paper towels....I thought I was going to have to wrap him up and find a vet....but as soon as I picked him up he squawked and flew away. Sigh of relief....I guess he didn't break his wing. He was probably just in shock. Hopefully he will survive.

So it is not completely surprising that I was out of sorts for a bit. I'm just so very glad that I am calmer now. So is Nick. We are both finding our feet in this new life of ours. And we are both ever so grateful that we made the effort to get through the teething stage.

Challenges test us, and we get to decide if we are up to them or not. We were up to the challenge, and we are both going to be OK. We are OK, as Nick just said a little while ago on the phone.

Thank you God. ♥

Glad to see you're settling in well. I love the pics! Are you accepting new clients for your counseling? Where do I sign up?!?

I am so happy yo read that you are "cutting yourself some slack" as the saying goes. You deserve some, nice, quiet, easy, gentle time.
( Kinda' like a lovely, l o n g, bubble bath for starters (if you're into that sort of thing, of course! ;-))
You have accomplished SO much in a short amount of time; it's frankly mind boggling!
So glad the little birdie survived the collision with the door. We've had that happen a time or two over the years, and the outcome isn't always as good as your experience was...
Croutie over and out..for now..
Oh, if I seem a little bit, shall we say happier(?), it is because we may be getting closer to the cause of our Son's health issues, and it appears, according to two of his Specialists, to be something treatable. So, I feel hopeful for a change. I am so grateful.
We will have more info after spinal tap next Tuesday.
Have a wonder evening with your Love in your beautiful house and garden..
Croutie
