     Darel had a good day yesterday.  Not as strong as he has been, he wasn't able to stand for the hymns but he was able to get to his feet for the last hymn.  Enjoyed football and so much napping in the afternoon that he is awake already waiting for the TV to tell him how the game wet last night.

     I didn't get much done yesterday.  We have a small flock of grackles flying around.  I chased them out of the horse chestnut tree a few times.  the chickadees hide seeds in the tree and the grackles land in the tree and eat the seeds.  Sometimes they will leave for the day if I chase them.  I went through some seeds.  the plug order is due this week.  i have to decide what i'm going to start from seed and what i'll buy started. Even with the lights in the laundry and the big windows i don't have room to start anywhees near everything.

     hoping i can get outside and get some work done before the rain.  Have a good day, Sally
