My ex was highly allergic to any kind of bees. I shad to learn to give him the shots but had I known then what I do now thebees coild have had him. I have two.brothers who are also allergic. Learning to give shots helped when I came here sunce my dad was on insulin and my sister who was,a cna at the time wasn't allowed to give him his shots and my youngest never lesrned how. I gave my ex insulin for a long time before he left. I haven't had to take them myself since my metformin is still working Looks like we might see some storms this afternoon. Had to leave my windows open last night since it was so warm.

Hello I hate yellow jackets!! I am so afraid of them when I am hiking I was attacked one year far away from my house I was stung 6 times and it affected me in a bad way I now carry one of those epipens with me It is always nice to see old friends. I visited with a friend last year that I did not see or talk to in years. It was a good visit They said the high is supposed to be 68 today I already have 64 degrees at my house.

Mental, I haven't seen any hummingbirds yet, justnbig bumblebees playing dive bomber, wasps and few butterflies abd honey bees. I hate those wasps since they can stung you many times. Guess I will get my hummingbird feeders filled abd putout today so thebees can get an early start on them. Looks like another beautiful day so enjoy it. Had a friend drop by yesterday to see how I was doing and if I needed anything. Kind of made my day. We talked about the Mulatto that he had driven by esrlier. He agred with me that it was ruined and would never be the same. Kind of depressed me after he left.

Hello You know some states dont allow rain barrels. I think that is just plain silly. I have creeks and ponds on my property so I dont collect water I am glad you are able to collect that rain water I tried the bird baths but the 5 Totos and Sexy always wanted to play in them so I gave them up. I still feed the birds but I put their feed out in the morning so all of it is gone by afternoon. I thought I saw a hummingbird the other day so I put my hummingbird feeders out. I had the bear come for those as well in the past but not as often as when they come for the bird seed. I have not seen the hummingbird since so now I doubt I saw one. Well, another great day in the mountains!! I have 60 degrees already My kind of weather. I like it when it is in the low 70's but that sun can be brutal since no leaves are on the trees yet. Hard to find shade when hiking. Time to get moving. Have a great day arrow Enjoy your new birdbath and fountain!! 🍄

Mental yes its nice to be able to post and not have to deal with dog and his mob. Maybe they got locked in the doghouse .I wouldn't look for summer clothes just yet. It seems the seasons have shifted to later coming and later leaving. Just got my birdbath and fountain set up so no more dirty birds. My sister came around and wanted go knowwhere my daughter got the water. From the rainbarrel at the corner of the house!! That girl scares me sometimes. Didn't cost a lot for the birdbath, Amazin special, but its so pretty .

I had snow, rain and I think even hail the other day. It was really weird but it looks like we survived. Nothing but sun and fun today!!! May even have to break out the summer clothes!! 🍄

Hello Arrow what do you mean when you say "the big site" I have seen several people mention it but I dont know what they are talking about. The weather was crazy yesterday. Not sure if it was hail or snow but something was falling from the sky The winds were crazy as well. I couldnt even ride the rickshaw because of the winds I hope this weekend will be nice!! 🍄

Mental lets hope it stops raining soon. I am already looking for wood for an ark. There was a moubtain lion spotted on Windy Hill road a few months back. Someone posted its picture on the big site. My daughter saw a bear cross the road about a mile from here. Usually wild animals avoid people. I don't blame them.

Hello Well, I guess I will have to start looking for more evidence of a mountain lion I have a game cam picture of coyote's eating on a deer. One of the coyotes was huge almost wolf like. I have read about coy wolves which is a coyote and wolf combined I have had my share of bad situations as well arrow. I just try to keep a positive attitude and a jar of fungi available. It helps with the positive attitude..... The jar It helps Are the rains going to stop today. A freaking downpour yesterday Seems like the rains never stopped. I love it though. I love when the creeks are full Hard to get across some of them though especially for The Totos!! I am glad it is Friday. It has been a long week and I am looking forward to the weekend 🍄

Yes mental, there are both moubtain lions , bobcats and wolves in these moubtaibs. I was stabding by the kitchen window on the Mulatto washing dishes one day. I had had a german shepherd but shs had died and where she had been near the old rock celkar I saw,a brown creature standing on to of the rubble. It was a big mountain lion. I called my husband and son and we all saw it. We often heard it scream behind the old miner cabin down the road. We called it Max My kids saw both a bobcat and wolf there. There was also a white buck in that area. Where I am now a big black cat has been seen and we believe it may have been an escapee from the zoo that used to be down the road. Development has forced a lot of animals into contact with people. A neighbor on the Mulatto got up one morning after grilling the night before to find a besr looking at him through his glass door. I listened to his call on my scanner. The game warden I talked to about the mountain lion told me that unless it threatened my animals or kids toleave it alone since they were rare. People actually scare me more than any animal with their cruelty.All my life I have had to make the best of bad situations. It almost makes me look forward go leaving this world. Theworld being left for our children is notgoing to be one worth livibg in I think. .

Hello Hello arrow. That was a great story! I have found that black bears want nothing to do with us humans I have never been approached by a bear when hiking. I was grunted at one time and I left the area I never saw the bear Do you really think there are wolves and mountain lions in this area? I hike a lot of miles in this area and have yet to come across any sign of either wolves of mountain lions. I know several people who claim to have seen a mountain lion and they are reputable people I would love to see either. It looks like rain again all day. No sunshine can play with my emojis. At least I'm getting some spring cleaning done. I hate change too arrow. I would hate to have to leave where I live now but I know that day will come. Try to make the best with what you do have

Mental No I didn't get to see the eclipse. It was cloudy here so I didn't bother. It dropped the temperature but never got really dark. A funny story about a besr on thr Mulatto. My kids used to hike that mountain all the time. One ****y oldest found a hunter up a tree his gun lying on the ground at the base . My son asked him what the heck he was doing and the hunter said he saw a bear and asked my son to go on up the path and see where it was. My son looked and saw tracks but no bear. It took him half an hour to talk that hunter down from that little tree. Had the bear wanted him it could have easily climbed that tree. I am still so homesick for the Mulatto. But I can't wait until some of those outsiders now living there run on bears, kr the wolf and mountain lion that used to live there. They may have been run off like I was by now.

Hello Did you see the eclipse arrow? I was able to see the eclipse but it was cloudy. I was able to see it through the clouds. It was interesting I cant even imagine what the people on this planet thought when they saw an eclipse way back. I had a visitor the other morning. A young black bear came looking for my bird seed. Not my bird seed the birds bird seed. I dont eat bird seed. I buy bird seed. I was able to watch the bear through my window So majestic. I think the black bear is one of the most beautiful creatures on this planet!! Next to The 5 Totos and Sexy of course Looks like another rain hike today. At least the temps are mild. I love this time of year!! 🍄

Mebtal I feed the birds also. Something keeps stealing my suet feeders. I think its a raccoon but I guess it has to eat too since the neighbors dog steals any scraps that gets put out. I don't think there will be much luck seeing the eclipse.
