BIRDY BARNUM seems to have gotten back into the swing of things. He is singing and dancing today and doing his tricks when requested....

I also put up a new small mirror on the wall outside his cage so that he can see ALL of himself when he wishes. He spent quite a bit of time admiring himself..... His other mirrors are smaller and don't give the full Birds Eye View.

And Amazon delivered some for a small home-improvement project.

I’m not great today. I have a stomach ache on the left side. I hope it’s not diverticulitis.

Vibes it is minor and you feel better super fast.

The Met has posted two weeks of programming today. Would love to watch Prince Igor. There are a couple of minor Rossini works that intrigue. Plus, a full Lucia after last week’s small scale version.

Picked up no packages - motor car started right up, so that was good.

Ordered in - a bacon and cheese omelet from Jinky's - it was pretty good.

Sad report: As people start going back to their prepandemic ways, they’re getting rid of their pets.

MEGA recovery vibes for DR Elmore!

This is NOT how we want you to meet your neighbors! But I'm very glad the strong young man was able and willing to help you. Please rest. Feel better soon!

Richard Widmark...he was pretty good in just about everything. And when I happen to see his name in the cast list, I usually give it at least a cursory glance.

Me, too.

That is sad. I wondered about it when there was this rush to acquire pets. Don't people think ahead at all?

I had a bad night. I didn't fall asleep until 1:30, then woke at 5:30 and couldn't go back to sleep. Ugh!

Message to the Sleep Gods:
Four hours is not enough!!

The plumber finally showed up to replace my kitchen faucet. He was scheduled for last Thursday, but was a no-show. Rescheduled for 9 this morning. Of course, I rushed through my stretches to be ready for him and thought I'd wait on breakfast until after he left. His son, also a plumber, arrived at 11. The son seems like a nice kid and appears to know what he's doing. He replaced the faucet and installed my new (replacement) water purifier. I can do the water purifier myself, but he did it in a heartbeat, where I have to read the directions and say things like, "Now what is THIS?" He is MUCH more efficient!
