jays

I have these two (I believe) scrub Jays that come every year. They make a lot of racket but are so much fun to watch. I get peanuts in the shells for them and place them at different places on the patio and birdfeeders. They come and fly off with them, screeching with delight and sometimes I see them shove them in the grass and they hide them maybe like squirrels do for the winter? Anyway they are fun to watch. I will try to get a picture of them.

long time

It's been a long time since I have blogged. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am very thankful to still be here. I am feeling pretty good even with the new cancer diagnosis I am not in a panic. It is curable and we will get rid of it. I am looking forward to being in Chico for Christmas. I am thankful that even though I can't work anymore and Terry will retire soon, we will be ok. Our meal was very nice (bought at Mimi's and eaten at home, quiet day) then our Cambodian neighbors brought us barbqued ribs and rice, just like the first thanksgiving - neighbors sharing - cool.
