All About Doves

 

Don't you just love doves?? We have a family that visits us (I think). Looks like a Mommy, Daddy and little one!! They perch in the trees and clean themselves.. this is what it was trying to do.

 

And cleaning here too. Tonight, I saw one of them on a wire, then in comes another one. It landed a little ways from it...so the first one...hops away on the wire. smile... (I told Tom I wish I'd have caught that on video!)  I was laughing, I thought it was so funny. Then it tried to get much, much closer and the first just flew off!! smile.. like...forget about this..ha..ha..

 

Isn't it pretty, all plummeted out?? Even their eyes are pretty.

 

I think I've shared enough pictures for one night...ha..ha!

 

Well, we went to the doctor today for Tom. He has an infection from his sinuses down to his lungs. So he's on antibiotics and we hope they kick in pretty soon. He feels so yucky and tired. We had some yard people come today and mow the grass. It looks really nice, but he felt bad that he has been so down and unable to get out and do anything. He said, "I have all the equipment...lawn mowers etc. to do it myself!" So, I told him, "well I have all the equipment to clean the house too...vacuum..etc. but I physically can't do it!" He finally conceded...smile.. The joys of getting old..you just don't recoup as fast as you did when you're younger.

 

Hope you're having a good week... 

A Little of This and That

 

Everyone knows what serendipity means right? To find something unexpected. When we saw this beautiful deer the other day, it was unexpected since we hadn't seen one in a long...time.  Isn't that just like God to put him in our way, to make us surprised and happy???



 

I spotted this bird the other day and thought is was something different then our usual ones we have around here.

 

After I looked at another shot, I realized it must be a robin. And I think it may be a juvenile one. Do you think I'm right or just a weird looking one...lol

 

I spotted these down at the Cancer Center the other day. Pretty aren't they? (Course I think all flowers are beautiful aren't they??) I was just thinking if you like/love flowers (like me) you need to go over to  Beth's blog at Beyond the Garden Gate. Her gardens are absolutely gorgeous!! I wish I could go and visit her..smile...

 

I bought this pot (filled with pretty flowers) last year, well I finally asked the lady that I got it from at the Farmers Market if she'd repot it . I have another one also and she's going to repot that one also. It's so pretty and I know as she said it will fill out nicely!!

 

Tom has been fighting a sore throat for the last few days, he thought he was doing better yesterday when we went to the Farmers Market. Then last night he must have had a fever, as he woke up totally soaked, clothes, bedding etc. We assumed his fever must have broke.. How scary is that? He's still got his cough, but it is much looser today. (prayers please..)

 

Did you have a nice weekend? We had some decent weather, it wasn't too hot or rainy (thank goodness!)

 

Hope you're in for a wonderful week.
