Look Ma, I'm Growing Owls!
Many palm trees grow fruit but this is the first time I've seen them sprouting owls! LOL
We have an unofficial 'contest' going with the neighbors about where the owls spend their time hanging out.......we text each other pictures when they're in our yards....ya' know, to brag.....
One or two are usually here but they also spend their time across the street.
Today all four of them chose OUR tree to hang out in/on........FOR THE WIN!

Covid Made Me Do It
I have ALWAYS made my bed daily.
Always.
I don’t deviate from this routine. Ever. My mother taught me
that you make the bed the minute you get out of it. Period. No arguing, no
hesitation, no procrastination, you just do it.
So I get out of bed, smooth the sheets, stow the pillows in
the headboard, pull up the comforter and artfully arrange the throw pillows.
DONE.
In doing this daily task you set yourself up to be
productive. And if for some reason you don’t get anything else done that day AT
LEAST YOU MADE YOUR BED!
I have since heard this reasoning from other sources but my
mother taught it to me first.
I have carried on this legacy for sixty-seven years! (not a
bad run if I do say so myself!)
Until now……..
And it’s ALL Covid’s fault!
I just don’t feel motivated enough to make my bed anymore. I
do a ‘sort of’ straightening of the sheets and I fluff up the pillows, but…….I
don’t bother with the comforter or the decorative throw pillows anymore.
And I say it’s all Covid’s fault! And Trump’s…..but we won’t
go there. I’m depressed enough.
This is how civilization ends my friends. Not with a bang
or a whimper but with a profusion of unmade beds!
