     Andrew didn't get to go home yesterday.  The doctors put in another drain.  If that works well he can go home.  Gilbert had a much better day yesterday.  The pathology report is supposed to be ready for the oncologist today.

     Boxes of Christmas decorations are still sitting around.  Christmas presents aren't put away.  We'll get to them when we can.  Thursday is forecast to be warm, I hope to put the large outside nativity set way, 

    Everyone is saying how many birds they have coming to the feeders.  Last fall we noticed that the acorns had very little meat in them and a lot of the sunflower seeds were empty.  I think this is a winter that bird feeders are making a huge difference in the survival of wild birds.  

   May your day be blessed, Sally
