A little bit of this and that.

The weather has been amazing here lately. Down in the high 50's at night and high 80's to 90 during the day. I don't know if I should set the thermostat to heat to keep the chill off in the morning or to cool to keep it cool in here in the afternoon. Bill is cold when he gets up in the morning, so guess the heat will have to be on for a while. 

Bill's e-reader Nook, quit working so trying to get a new one from Barnes and Noble. They don't have any in the stores so ordered it on line - over a week ago. Just checked and they don't have any in their warehouse either. Maybe?? they will get some by next Monday. Of course, it is paid for. (Update, it has been shipped. So he might get it this week.)

Still haven't been able to get one of his meds either. Pharmacy says their supplier doesn't have them in stock, so they keep trying to reorder - going on for a month now. Supposed to get some in next order Wednesday. If not guess we'll have to get a hold of doc to see if there is something else he can take. (Another update, pills are ready to be picked up, only took three weeks.)

I'm still walking every other day. The Wetlands are starting to get a lot of migrating birds to watch. Usually getting in 3 miles a walk. 

And the water is really high, river flowing swift. 
We went into the Nature Center building again and I noticed this. It is paper all cut by hand to make the design. Lots and lots of work in this one. It is about 3 feet by 3 feet. 
Our front side yard is in full bloom.
Remember the hole in front of the house. Caught one of the maintenance men the other day and asked if he could find some dirt for us. Was kind of kidding. He said No problem. 
The next day he came by with the dirt and filled the hole. Then put the rocks on it. (kind of borrowed some rocks from empty house next door.) Looks good as new. Of course we still don't know if there is a problem under the house. That will take management to check it. 
Bill outside flying one of drones. 
Fixed chicken fajitas lasagna for dinner last night. Yes you read that right. The chicken and peppers and onion and fajitas spices layered with lasagna noodles and a red sauce and bechamel sauce. By the time it was ready to put in over every pan in the cupboard had been used. Turned out pretty good but would make changes to it next time. More chicken and more red sauce. 
Walked yesterday too - another three miles.

Have you by chance seen the video of a drone dress up as a ghost - it is on Instagram and if I were computer savvy I would send it to you. If you have an interest to see it you can find it there….somewhere. Bill may enjoy seeing it since he is back to flying his drones.

I can't believe that this modern world of ours is running out of medications.
