WELL HERE'S MY SECOND DONATION TO THE EGF DRIVE. I WANTED TO WAIT UNTIL CANDY GOT IT BEFORE I POSTED. BUT AS YOU CAN SEE I DIDN'T MAKE IT. I JUST PUT IT IN THE MAIL YESTERDAY. THE DRIVE ENDS IN AUG. IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO SEND SOMETHING. YOU CAN GET MORE INFO HERE.WHEN I TOOK MY LITTLE BOX TO THE POST OFFICE I TRIED TO TAKE IT BACK HOME WITH ME. PENNY GRABBED IT AND SAID SHE THOUGHT SHE'D JUST KEEP IT. WELL I TRIED TO GET IT FROM HER. IT DID SINK IN THAT I DID GO THERE TO MAIL IT. I JUST HAVE A HARD TIME LETTING GO OF MY LITTLE BOX WHEN IT'S FULL. I WORRY OVER IT SO MUCH. SO I JUST LEFT WITH ANOTHER BOX TO FILL UP AND WORRY OVER. THAT'S THE ONLY THING I KNOW TO DO.
MY HUSBAND IS SO FUNNY. YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE MOCK LOOK OF SHOCK WHEN HE SAW ME CARING MY FLAT LITTLE BOX LAST NIGHT. ANOTHER ONE HE SAID. I PUT IT BEHIND ME AND SAID WHAT? LOOKED AT HIM AS IF I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT AND WENT ON MY MERRY WAY TO FIND TAPE FOR MY LITTLE BOX. IT NOW HAS 14 HATS IN IT. I STARTED WORKING ON FILLING IT UP AS SOON AS I GOT THE OTHER ONE TAPED UP.
WE HAVE A NEW NEIGHBOR NOW. HE HAS TWO LITTLE GIRLS WITH BLUE EYES AND LONG BLOND HAIR. HE MOVED INTO HIS GRANDPARENTS PLACE SO WE KNOW THEM. HE GETS THE GIRLS ON THE WEEKEND. WELL THEY FOUND A BABY BIRD AFTER A STORM WE HAD OVER THE WEEKEND. THEY LOOKED SO CUTE STANDING THERE HOLDING THAT LITTLE WET BIRD. THEY HAD IT ALL WRAPPED UP IN A WET WARM CLOTH. THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO . I SHOWED THEM IN ,MIXED UP SOME FOOD AND FED THE BIRD. I LET THEM KNOW THAT IT MAY NOT MAKE IT. THEY KNEW THIS SINCE THIS IS NOT THE FIRST BIRD THEY HAVE TRIED TO RESCUE. I TOLD THEM TO GET A DRY CLOTH AND KEEP IT WARM AND COME BACK IN SIX HOURS AND I'D FEED IT AGAIN. THEY LEFT ALL SMILES. THIS WAS SATURDAY. THEY GO BACK HOME ON SUNDAY. GUESS WHO STILL HAS THE BIRD? SO FAR IT'S DOING ALRIGHT. I BOUGHT A LITTLE PLASTIC CARRYING CAGE TO KEEP IT IN. THAT WAY IF IT LIVES IT WON'T GET AWAY FROM THE GIRLS UNTIL IT'S FED OUT.I JUST HOPE IT MAKES IT. I DON'T THINK I CAN STAND TO SEE TWO SAD LITTLE FACES. I CAME OFF MY HORMONE PILLS THE END OF MAY. I CRY AT ANYTHING NOW.
What a wonderful donation you have made! I am sure that it will be greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteAwwww about the little bird. We found several while we were growing up but they never made it no matter how much we babied and fed them. I hope it makes it!
Well, I'm glad you didn't save your photo until after I rec'd the items. I needed a "pick me up" today and this is just perfect. Kathy, thank you so much for your continuous support. I truly can't thank you enough for doing what you can to comfort a family during such a difficult time.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'll make a bet that I can cry faster than you. :-) Hope your little birdie friend hangs tough!
