ORIOLES
The orioles are here. It is so amazing how they show up each spring on exactly the first of May. They must have little calendars built in. We fixed up the feeders yesterday with the orange oriole food, a half of an orange and some grape jelly so when they came they would stick around. We get tons of them so maybe they return to the same place every year. I just started a loaf of Italian bread for our neighbor who is having cataract surgery today. We drove to Ann Arbor two days in a row so Sarge could sigh up for the medical benifits at the Veterans medical center and to see a dr there. It all went very smoothly except for when their computers went down while waiting for prescriptions. I went to Verizon and signed up for Friends & Family plan so can talk unlimited to 10 people. My daughters and I get on the phone and chat while playing FarmTown and I was worried I would go over our minutes. That game takes a lot of time. Also is a drain on cellphone batteries! I went in to get a new battery. They cost $40 and a new phone was free so I got a new phone. Its purple. Nothing fancy because I don't text or watch tv or get emails or surf the net on my phone. I have a netbook for those things! Now I have to remember to send in the rebate so the phone is in fact "free". It has been raining so much the grass/dandelions need mowing again, but probably too wet yet after yesterday's downpours. I should have a photo of the Orioles...maybe later.
