Keep up the good work...you're worth it.

Keep after it hammer and tongs.

Good job Sundae. What a nice surprise to hear from you. It sounds like you've got a good understanding of what's expected, what's needed from you. It sounds like you're doing what needs to be done. That is an inspiration. Thanks.

Catch up when you can, we'll be thinking of you. :)

It's good to hear from you. I'm glad you're doing what needs doing.

It is good to here from you Cherry, we love you and, are praying for you.

Don't want to rush you, Sundae, or cast nasturtiums...but there's been no activity in the celeb death pool since you took a break..... those geriatric brits seem to have stopped dying off so much.... ;)

Up and down here.
I've wanted to leave, I've wanted to stay forever.

Today is a good day :)

I'm sure that the 'down' days will dwindle to the point of insignificance, Cherry.

Keep plugging away. You can do it! :thumb:

All the best.

Up and down, up and down, then at the end a euphoric orgasm. Good plan. :thumb:

Painted my nails this afternoon, always a good sign.
I've been making friends with the local wildlife.

When I get a chance to upload some more photos, I'll share my one of a jay.
Never seen one before I moved here. Supposed to be shy woodland birds, hard to spot in flight. Apart from when they swoop in to get nuts from city centre rehab windowsills, or sit preening in nearby cherry trees waiting for some more to be served. At least the squirrel dines in rather than take-away.

Poor squirrels have three members of the crow family after their nuts in Leeds; crows, magpies and jays. Or maybe I attract them personally, being the biggest nut of all.

Is there an Oak in the vicinity? Jays are particularly fond of acorns so that might explain their presence. They'll build up a store of the things to keep them going through the winter.

We do see them from time to time here and several years ago we had three visit the garden frequently to feed on the crushed peanuts we left out.

Do you have the Eurasian jays?

That's the one, Bruce.

(I hope I'm not treading on Sundae's toes.:blush:)

Shouldn't think so, she'll post her Jay in due time. I was curious which Jay you get, as we get mostly Blue Jays. They're smart as hell, like the rest of the family(crows & Ravens), but bullies of the bird feeder.

The shriek of the blue jay is one of my least favorite sounds. I hate it. Grates on my nerves.
