I did not get squirrels. Odd. Doves liked the black oil sunflower seeds on the ground or stand. Sparrows I had square feeders hanging on trees. Finches,mocking bird,etc liked the hanging log. Wood peckers trees or square feeders. I used to have a cool video of a woodpecker mom feeding her baby on a tree. I'll try to find it

Well, this is lovely. I was mowing my front lawn this summer and I saw a camera truck go by. Not really paying attention at the time, but I just discovered that they were apparently updating Google maps because there I am if I pull up my address.
Were you at least presentable? I have a picture of my hubs mowing with a scarf on his head (mosquitos were bad) and a tampon up his nose (bloody nose).

The surgery I had to stop seizures didn't work. Insurance stopped paying so I went a couple days without. Yesterday was really bad. I stayed the night with my mom. The day before yesterday I had an email I never read that my meds were ready
So far,don't notice a difference since my meds are back but in a few months I will move to the woodlands near my parents since she still drives me. Sucks but it will help her

What is the best way to prepare food for guests with a really tight budget?
Buffet style,plated,formal,informal?How many guests?

Of course deli meats are expensive and cheese for charcuteries and anripasta tally up quickly but bowls of potatoes salad,coleslaw ,pasta salads & chicken wings are inexpensive and filling ,swedish meatballs,big tray of baked macaroni?

Love my squirrel friends- I buy 40lb bags of peanuts each month and they stick to their peanuts,2 run up my legs to get peanuts in my pockets when I wave them on----the birds eat their feed all along the landscape bed outside my front window while the squirrels come to collect their peanuts ,some stay and eat on the ground or up on the big Palm tree- my kitties watch from their window perches or Sami lies down outside with me- they all yell at Sami and he's love to chase them but of course he's not allowed

Which is why if I get a call from an unknown number, it goes straight to the robotic voicemail message. I give them nothing.
Unfortunately these stupid phones go to voicemail when calls are unanswered,I've tried desperately to disable the voice mail options- AI will mark number as ' active' when it goes to VM so can't win for losing- active numbers remain on call lists and are sold over n over n over- it's extremely annoying

I've even requested ' NO VOICEMAIL' from service provider,not an option and not a way to turn off with my phone( Samsung Android)

Thanks a lot for this!:lovecat3:
I already dealt with it, and I just wrote what was in my mind at that moment.
