I won’t show you how the garden is doing because it would make my blog ugly. I will however just say it’s 110 degrees and the only thing that’s doing well is basil, tomatoes and my carrots that I pull up occasionally for my pot roasts. Even if things were good outside it’s a little too hot to check. So, I’m letting the garden go.
And clearly I’m feeding the birds unintentionally.
These are neighborhood love birds, I believe. They sure are a loud bunch but so cute. They are also completely destroying my sunflowers for an evening snack.
Hey you two, this is not that kind of backyard – get a room!
Hope you’re all having a great week so far and finding time to rest – like Liberty.

Diana Elizabeth found it amusing and has often seen the hummingbirds and love birds quarrel over backyard perching branches. Guess she did a good job with the backyard, the birds love it!
![[ad] 🎁 I love gifting but I know sometimes it can be overwhelming especially if your list is long. 🎄 If you are having a hard time figuring out what to get that person on your list who has everything, or don't have much time, pick up a gift card (and maybe some candy too)! 🎁 You can find a variety of gift cards from @incommpayments at Walgreens available for purchase.

I like to think about their specific interests - who is handy, crafty, who loves makeup, and who needs a night off from cooking? Gift cards can still be quite personal to the recipient and are always well received! I like giving gift cards to specific retailers because it ensures the recipient is using it on something special just for themselves and not groceries or bills - because I want them to treat themselves. Gift cards are also easy to send to those we won't be doing an in-person gift exchange with this Christmas.

Select gift cards are available to purchase online and pick up in stores!

I never knew you could keep love birds outside…………..
Diana Elizabeth says
No one is keeping them, but rumor has it perhaps someone had a pet and they released and multiplied? Not even sure if they are love birds but I suppose like any other bird, they’ll just find a way to survive! They go away in the winter and return in the spring, it’s pretty funny. You can hear when they are back :) They live in holes in the palm trees.
