No news is good news, right?

I haven’t blogged since Sunday and that is mainly because there really isn’t much going on with me.

My days have fallen into a routine that doesn’t vary much. I work until I eat lunch. Then I work until I go exercise. Next I work until I shower. And finally I work until HB gets home or it gets to be 6:00 or so, whichever comes first. We eat supper and after supper I read a book for a while. wooo-hooo! I know, I know, hold you back from the excitement. ;-)

There aren’t any flowers blooming here yet. The trees are budding leaves and the tulip (?) leaves are sticking out of the ground in our front flowerbed, but no tulips yet. The tulips were a delightful surprise! I didn’t plant them, so they are coming up because of being planted in the past. Hopefully they will have flowers.

The birds that come to the feeder are mostly black birds right now. I’m kind of tired of them, because they hog the feeder and keep all of the finches and smaller birds from getting to eat. The girlie-girl likes them though. She spends part of her morning and evening meh-ing excitedly at the birds. If you’ve ever been around a cat excited by birds and heard the shortened eh! meh! sounds they make, you’ll know what I mean.

She’s been a bit of an attention-hound lately. I’m not sure why she suddenly wants me to pet her so much, but she’ll meow at me and if I put my hand down to pet her, she’ll run over. There have been a few instances where she has jumped up next to me so that I’d pet her. Unusual. But endearing.

Such are the small happenings of my daily life.

    We saw some cool new-to-us birds in Sedona: spotted towhee, Gambel’s quails, western scrub jays. And the coyote that just stood in the yard and let us check him out.

    But the pretty birds will be back soon for you. Happy for you about the tulips. I hope they flower too.

    And I know, exactly, the sound you’re talking about. It’s so hilarious when they do that.

    Routine is exciting, isn’t it? ;)

    So I see we’re stuck in the same boat of “not much going on”.

    I have seen some very pretty birds in our trees. Mostly blue jays and robins. Very pretty stuff.

    And I think I have some bulbs popping up in our front yard. I believe they are tulips. I am hoping the flower and complement the ones in my back yard.

    I uploaded pictures of my yellow ones on flickr. I was thinking about posting them tomorrow with a little story on why I love tulips so much.

    I love that there is so much green and blue around. Spring and summertime make me so happy.

    And I also know what you are talking about with GG. meh. meh.

    Cats are so funny. :)

    Sometimes routine can be very nice…I’d like some routine right about now! Everything is going okay, just hectic.

    I hope you have lots of beautiful flowers blooming in your area soon, and not just because I enjoy your photos so much.

    Love and Hugs!

    My cats chirp at the birds. Actually chirp (or try, anyway). Does yours do that?

    I always wonder, though, why they are making any noise at all. I mean, if they were actually outside meowing and chirping (not to mention the tail swishing!), the bird would totally fly away. Like, DUH, cats!
