UnFOURgettably 4 Friday!

Soooooo now we aren't only having a battle with bird's nesting, we are also trying to evict flying things from our ceiling fan. It never ends and that is what makes life, I suppose, but seriously, I could never feel the need to battle flying things and be all right! 


There was an upside this week as we took a day trip to the local lake. It was good to get wet. The blow up paddle board is a really fun toy and we both enjoyed paddling around the cove. This may become a weekly thing. It was a chore to pump that baby up and our backs and arms felt the paddling but in a good way. Keeping our bodies steadily moving and not overdoing will pay dividends in the end.

Blowing up the board! So easy...




Really enjoyed our day trip to the lake and maybe we will take ROADA next time as we found out the campgrounds are empty during the week.

UnFOURgettably 4 Friday

I'm sure you are just as thrilled as we are to have a bird update. 

Rest assured, we are NOT giving up...but we back to doing battle with the birds again. The robins have now attempted to make a nest IN THE SPIKES. Then we have two little wrens who have found their way under the gutter guards and tried to make a nest in the gutter itself. These birds are certainly persistent that is for sure. And our two fake snakes and owls have not deterred anything! Except maybe the hummingbirds because it has been a few weeks since we have seen those little guys.

UnFOURgettably 4 Friday!

It's been 34 years for MiRV and I. Thirty-four. That's a milestone in my book! We work hard to have what we have. We share, care and trust. It's been a wild road we've traveled but we traveled it together. We are still finding the road sometimes has blind curves, huge hills and a few dead ends. We just try to remember to stay on the road! And remember our motto, "Adapt and Overcome" it will get you through some of those tough spots.

Celebrate the small and big things. That's what we try to do. Even the everyday things. Don't take what you have for granted. Love always. Look to God for the needs you have not another person or thing. Find satisfaction within yourself and you will be a much happier being. Just my .02.
