Everyone is Staring at Me

All day long I just had the strangest feeling that someone was watching me…

I’m not sure why I felt that way. I just did. Weird, huh?

Well, I hope you all remembered to spring forward (for all of you daylight savings people) and set your clocks forward an hour. I’m looking forward to it being light later in the evenings.

And it’s Sunday! I love Sundays. Start of a new week. Almost as good as Mondays, when I jump into the week and actually do something with it, after wasting away my Sundays! Mondays are kind of like a mini January 1st…everyweek. So tomorrow is Monday and I have a list a mile long of things to do. But that’s okay, because I actually do get a lot done on Mondays.

What day of the week is your get ‘er done day of the week?

Hello? It’s a Bird Feeder

It comes to no surprise to you, I’m sure, that I have a bird feeder out my window. A BIRD feeder. You know, for the birds.

Now, this squirrel is NOT a bird. No matter what he thinks. But he sits at the base of the bird feeder and eats. He used to eat IN the feeder until we got a squirrel proof feeder. And moved it 3 times so he couldn’t jump to the feeder and knock all the seed out so the poor little birds got no food.

And though this deer is very pretty, he’s not a bird either. Bird feeder BIRD FEEDER.

I exhaust myself daily trying to explain to all these animals that I have a Bird Feeder. For, you know, the birds. Okay, I guess you could call these turkeys birds. But they weren’t what I had in mind.

Not to mention the little rascals are destructive. They knocked down the thistle feeder. I was not amused. Look at him. Trying to act all innocent. “Who me??” (he’ll probably blame it on his little brother. That’s what boys do.) As if I can’t see him. He’s lucky Thanksgiving is so many months away.

It really is a bird feeder. See? I keep trying to convince all the other animals…
