Happy Saturday

Today is a much better Saturday than last Saturday, boy was I in a MOOD..I didn’t feel well and that colors my thoughts a lot of the time..But today is better..Thanks to a couple of good friends’ support, I am trying to wake each day with a positive thought and also we are trying to take some kind of walk each day..It’s tough some days, the wind blows so hard a lot of the time, but we have been trying.  No guarantees that each day I will feel as good as the one before, but I am trying to go with the ups and downs.

Ok, lets think PINK.  Our pink jasmine is blooming in our backyard, here is a picture I took the other day (that is Carl and our dal Gracie and our lab mix India in the background).  I am told it smells really good, I just can’t smell much right now due to sinus congestion, but I take Carl’s word for it

Our baby hummingbirds have flown the nest.  I really miss watching them but hopefully the mama will use our tree to build another nest next time…I read that sometimes the mama bird will go back to the same tree over and over again, and that would suit us just fine.  Next time we will fortify the nest to the tree, we had a near disaster this past Sunday night, the wind blew the next and baby birds to the ground..Carl fixed the nest and placed the babies back in it, sort of a makeshift thing

Well the next day one of the baby’s jumped out and started flying a couple feet off the ground, then the next baby, although he was kind of a big chicken..Mama was fluttering nearby..we saw them off and on for a couple days, now they are gone and I assume off to live their life.

Here is the mama bird watching over them!  I hope she comes back!

Well the painting project is finished for now..our bedroom and bath, guest bath and office/studio need to be done but that is another project and another day..I am so pleased with the colors and how well it turned out..Carl is such a perfectionist and it usually shows

See there is SOME pink in my post, more like Cranberry but oh well..

Sorry about the messy bed..one of the dogs had been sitting there..I am going to change up the linens in here, this color is a soft greenish gray..love it!

Well thanks for indulging me and my sort of pink pictures today..Linking up to sweet Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for PINK SATURDAY..Please visit Beverly and some of my fellow pinkies!  Always a treat!
