Sunday blessings

This picture shows a beaded ruffled collar which I am just finishing up. My bead stuff has been sitting dormant for a long while. Now that I have a car again I can resume some of these projects that have fallen aside. I love finishing things and finally getting them to the people they belong to.

Today was sweltering hot here in Lemon Grove. It got as high as 105 degrees outside. It was like a ghost town here since everyone was indoors. I didn't hear the sound of a car or truck all day. Tomorrow is supposed to be the same. Whew! Thank God for WATER! Thank God for COLD WATER!!

This morning I saw one of the Painted Conure babies poking his head out of the nest box door. The Parrotlets are still being great parents, but the box is just too small for all of these babies. So I pulled the 3 Conures out and will be hand feeding them full time now. It was too hot in the nest box too and I was worried the babies might die of heat stroke. So, now I have a little plastic bin with three little birdies sitting here next to me. I feel like a mommy bird.

I hope this week is productive. Last week was a bust all around...I was fatigued and feverish and foggy headed. Now I am a bit better and hope tomorrow I will feel like hopping out of bed and getting caught up. Prayer for this much welcome.

Right now I am grateful for the three frozen grape pops I found in my freezer today.
I am grateful none of my birds had heat stroke.
I am grateful for ICE.
I am grateful for left over pasta.
I am grateful for shoes that fit.
I am grateful for cotton shirts.
