Making My Day
Been under the weather this week. I've had a cold that was uncomfortable but not bad enough to keep me home. I could work even though I was croaking or squawking when I opened my mouth. For two days straight I had no desire to open my mouth. The thought of talking made me miserable. The one thing I wanted to do yesterday was come home and go straight to bed.
I arrived home, pulled into the driveway and glanced over at the orange bells. I saw a hummingbird feeding off the nectar from the flowers. Our first hummingbird sighting in our garden! There was no time to grab the camera. Frankly, I didn't try, I stood there enjoying the sight until the bird flew away. It made my day...
Today's been 100% better. Luckily, I have these pics from the last monthes to share. Put the two of them together and you'll get an idea of what I saw.

Getting Domestic
I woke up with a list of what I want to do today going thru my head. It's a looooooooong list and so far, I'm up and the Girls had breakfast. I'm moving s-l-o-w-l-y. Aw well, been moving fast all week. Got my NFL buddies, chatting in the background. I'm sitting at the kitchen table in my robe and jammies debating whether to make coffee or not.
Courtesy of the lovely ladies, I'm started to get shag carpeting. I don't think of Maica as a blond but there are light hairs everywear! Now I remember why I always have had dark haired dogs. Oh, but she is such a super crack up. Just looking at her face makes me laugh.
Looks like I have a date with the vacuum. While I'm at it, it's really a good idea to tackle the disarray in the kitchen. Looks like I'm going to put on some sweats and get domestic.
Maybe, maybe.....I'll finish in time to get cleaned up and make a little trek to the Phoenix Art Museum in the afternoon. I want to see the other part of the botanical illustration exhibition. One part is at the Desert Botanical garden and the other at PAM. Beautiful, inspiring work. I drew my breath in at the sight of the pictures hanging at the garden. But the of course, I'm a sucker for beautiful botanicals.
Happy Sunday! Vacuum cleaner, here I come!!!!!!!!
