Four egger
And then there were four. We don’t expect any more. As I have probably said before this nest is on the security light in the “lee” of our house, an inside corner between the east wall and the south wall of the A-ddition. It’s been quite a few years since robins nested in this spot but they’re doing it again. Five feet away chickadees are nesting in a bird house.
Yesterday was a day, beginning sorta slowly and accelerating and then all of a sudden it was 9:30 and I couldn’t have strung two words together to save my life. You’re welcome.
First, I remember at the beginning of all of this STUFF worrying about some of my fave places to shop, including the seafood market in Kerrytown. A seafood market in the midwest? Yes. A really good seafood market in the midwest. I found out they were doing curbside pickup and placed a big order. We were getting down to the bottom of that order so yesterday I made another one. I needn’t have worried about this place. They were so BUSY the order-taker had to put me on hold for a bit and then forgot to get my debit card info. When I got down there (and yes of course I paid), the owner brought my fish out and said that they were way beyond BUSY. More like CRAZY! They deliver both fish and lunch and I guess people are buying. Which is a good thing!
We were less successful picking up a hardware item later in the afternoon maybe in part because the GG didn’t read the DIRECTIONS for how to pick up but also because they LOST his order. After a half hour wait in that parking lot and a couple of employees disappearing inside never to return, we gave up.
I don’t get, you know, OUT very much these days and usually when I do the streets are pretty deserted. Not yesterday! I don’t know what was going on besides it was a nice day but there was just about as much traffic as, you know, before.
Maybe more later. Maybe not.

I love the color of those eggs–so beautiful! I may go to the hardware store to get my annuals, but don’t want any crowds. That could be tricky because everyone else wants plants these days too.

I LOVE the color of the eggs! (I always thought robin eggs were more of a sky blue?) That “teal” is my most favorite color!
I haven’t been away from this house since March 10th (John’s the grocery-go-getter). So far, I’m doing OK with that, except I miss my kiddos terribly. And I’m afraid the Covidiots are becoming more emboldened, so staying away from them is the best medicine.
