Big Mouth

For the first time today, some of the bluebird nestlings started poking their beaks out of the box - a cute-o-meter moment for sure.  Here, Mister is feeding his big-mouthed kid an unfortunate little spider.  From the sounds of it, Nestling was very pleased with his spider-burger.  

It is hot and humid today.  Real temp is sitting at 90 F and the "real feel" is at 97 F.  No matter how you slice it, it isn't much fun to be outside for long.  So, I did some quick sorties around the garden with frequent breaks for air-con.  Hubs and I went to the gym and then had a lunch.  Some yard work for him, some banking chores for me.  He's off to visit MIL now and then we'll enjoy a quiet dinner.

No desire to brave any of the crowds to see live fireworks tonight although maybe we'll turn on the telly and watch the NYC fireworks.  We'll see.  I had no desire to watch the parade in DC today either - it seemed quite self-serving to me.  I remain very disillusioned with the current state of our government.  That said, I am still very glad to be an American.

I think tomorrow is a blip milestone for me - I'll have to check.  If so, I hope I can find something especially cool to blip.

Cheers, and Happy Independence Day to my friends in the US.  To all others, Happy Thursday.
