This morning I picked up my straightening irons by the wrong end - it took a minute to register and then I dropped them. I have burned the heck out of my hand owwwwwwwwww...the burn's only medium-bad but jeesh they HURT don't they?
BUT I rescued a baby bird out the back straight after I did it! I went out to do the doggies' toys and treats and stuff, and it was flapping around under the pavilion - couldn't work out how to get out. It finally stopped on the ground in the corner behind the door, and it let me pick it up! It was soooooo frightened. It flapped off again and latched onto one of the legs of the pavilion, and I had to prise it's little claws off - it's legs were so spindly and tiny I thought they would break! But I took it to the fence, gave it a little nudge and it flew off. It was so tiny and uncertain - the doggers would have killed it for sure if I had have left it there. Little thing - so sweet... it made up for the burn!!
