COLD DARK ROOM

Well done you! That's a lot of work! I can see your halo from here

I know what you mean about the dust. When we had a wall knocked down, I swear even the dust needed dusting!

Yes...thats where we shop when visiting Florida.

Yes, to truly experience Florida, you have to shop at Publix.

Well, I started my Amazon Christmas shopping yesterday! It feels so good to get it started and my goal is to wrap as they come in because I always lose a present or two and end up searching on Xmas Eve in a panic.

Make sure you leave yourself a secret code so you know what's what, and what's for whom.

My daughter is a perfectionist too. I spent a lot of time helping her to learn that it’s OK to get things wrong as long as you learn from your mistakes.

Oh, that's a difficult one... I still have to remind myself that the goal is not really perfection, but rather "as good as reasonably achievable in the time alotted."

Dust bunnies breeding like, well... Bunnies?

Good afternoon.
Retired life has become pretty boring.
Kelly has gone away for a week to spend time with her bestest, oldest friend.
Suki and I have been sleeping late.

I decided to pull the motorcycle out of the garage and ride down the beach.
I've stopped at Dania Beach pier.
There really is a lot to do. Just getting the energy to do it is rough...

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Time for a beer.
The weather is fantastic and cooler than normal.

Kelly's monster bird aviary is up and running and her birds are all in there.
2 of them however, can't fly very well.
I suppose they need some time to get wing strength. They've never had room to actually fly before.
So I've added water and food bowls on the ground, also.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

I'm going for a walk on the beach.
Have a good night.

That's called the 80:20 rule. I had to work on that with both my kids. Focus on the things that will give you the biggest gains in the time available and only worry about the remaining 20% if you have time left over!

That aviary is amazing Ed. Enjoy your relaxation this week!

I have heard of people putting the wrong tags on gifts so when the the kids peeked they were disappointed.

My problem is hiding them in different places and forgetting.

Wowzers!!! That’s awesome!!

Enjoy that walk!

My step mom had a big aviary with 3 finches and they laid eggs like crazy and she ended up with like 40!
She always tried to give me a few.

Glad to hear that! I'm traveling the second half of this week to your part of the state. The weather and temperatures have been lovely around here the last few days.

I don't see any birds. They must be that invisible species I've heard about.

They make lengths of plastic chain that you hang down just on the inside of the doorway to keep the birds from flying out the door when you go in.

This thing is so big that the birds just fly to the far end when you enter. Its 8 feet deep.
