what do you do,

HEN ITS NOT UP TO YOU,,,

I absolutely love watching this one lady's Youtube channel...she is a mature lady, she has an adventurous spirit, and I enjoy her hikes and camping videos so much...I always watch but there is this one little thing that I just wish I could fix about her.  It's completely superficial and none of my business to be honest.  

So I just want to reach into the screen and put her hair in a pony tail or comb it or smooth it back away from her face...ITs constantly in her face. Sometimes she wears a baseball cap and then it's  great the hair is not hanging in her face.  I would never say anything but that brings up this point....why are we so easily bruised that it would be considered an insult for me to say, Please pin your hair up while you're on camera....I mean trust me I know it would be way out of proper manners.  BUT I sure want to, LoL it would not be kind...and I don't think I'd want a complete stranger to say that to me...I don't even know why it bothers me.  But I find myself obsessing over it each time I watch.  I think it's me who has the problem. 

Anyways the news of the day, if there is any, I met the mobile vet, now their new policy is they don't carry full boxes of the heartworm  pills with them, only single pills.,,,SO I had to pay for the pills but they will arrive in the mail....Hopefully!!  Another thing out of my control. 

And I found one headlight retainer ring at Auto Zone, but I need 2 so I will check O'reily's maybe they have one... that's the plastic ring that holds your headlight into the socket of the housing.  Both mine were so brittle they disintegrated when I removed them...the last time I changed the bulb when I thought maybe the bulbs were bad and that was causing my headlights to go off...so I taped them in place.  Hopefully the one I got will fit and if it does then I will order an second one or go look for a second one. TOO Hot to deal with it today it was 82 outside with 61% humidity.  WOW from Winter to Summer in one day. When you've gotten used to 40F  80 is like WAY too hot.   I think tomorrow will be more normal.  I did get a few things done when I returned from the errands.  

I planted some onion sets in my garden pots, and rescued a Goldfinch.  A blind bird sitting on the birdbath...SO hope his eyes are not too far gone that I can save his sight and therefore save his life.  I gave him the first treatment and made him comfortable in the "infirmary"...so I will check on him but not disturb anymore today.  The thing is to keep the contact to as little as possible.  Generally I will only need to administer the salve to the eye once a day at the same time I will clean the cage, and refill the food and water containers...I do all this while holding the  little fellow safely in my hand. 
He is one of the batch that showed up during last weeks cold blast and they are mostly still here, all the Goldfinches and the Pine Siskins too. 

I will have to take down my feeders and bleach clean each one...tomorrow I can try to get that done. I still feel really tired from my camp trip I over did the walking and it has taken me longer to bounce back this time.  Age is starting to reflect in my daily life...I have not been daily walking all winter.  At first I used all my energy to cut firewood, then the rains came and I could not cut wet wood, so I just stopped, no chopping no walking....a hike 2 or 3 times a week while birding is not gonna cut it, So in the morning weather permitting I'm gonna go for a walk.  I like to go early if possible.

The Daffodils opened up last night they look so pretty, they have good stems so I hope no storms come to knock them over...So those are the things on my mind and plate today.  March tomorrow and before you know it I will be saying it's Friday again.
