Exercising for the birds/tinnitus or just goofy????? SNIPPETS
I heard the bird chirping the minute I walked into the house through the basement back door last night coming in from the gym … I went over to my DH for a hug and kiss as he was sprawled watching the games on the widescreen TV and then I went over to check on my 8 awesome furry baby ferrets … all too happy to see me and full of genuine love … after pets and hugs and kisses I look around and wondered WHY were birds chirping in my house … the sounds a bit fainter now in the room with my guys pen ….
Tired at the end of the day I dragged myself up the stairs to the kitchen to notice that once again BIRDS ARE CHIRPING! ….. all the lights were left ON and that the TV in the kitchen is blaring (on the games) and there is NO ONE watching it … somehow the dufuses (my adored DH and offspring) have the misconception that I have stock in United Illuminating the higher the bill the more careless they are...
Worried about these chirping birds and wondering how the managed to get into the house and how to free them I decided to start opening the windows (the central air is on) so they can fly back out to their freedom. Kitchen windows open I proceed to the living room were AGAIN lights are on (come down holy ghost and sit on the panaMANIAC) and the living room TV is on (ON THE GAMES) but NO ONE is in there watching it … MAD BIRDS CHIRPING IN MY LIVING ROOM …. Anyhow I turn the lights off AND the TV off … … and I went up to my room after opening the windows in the living room.
Remembering that I did not open the windows downstairs in the basement where our den is, I grab a huge towel from my linen closet and went back downstairs when all I wanted to do was to hop into the hot tub and then go to bed … I go downstairs with the big towel … I go past my DH who ASKS ME what I am doing and I TELL HIM it looks like a bird or two got into the house and I have to open the windows to let them out … he says okay and is glued back to the TV…. Chirping Chirping I but NO BIRDS TO BE SEEN …
I give up … I go back upstairs .. hop into the tub and pass out for the night … No painting tonight … I am tired … I had backed up sleep from being up fretting about my sister and about the folk back home and painting my stress off on canvas with my brushes and my palette.
I woke up at 3:45 am and put on my running gear before my friends from my running group tapped on my window at 4:00 am …. We run for over an hour this morning going a bit further than we usually do … I come back home clean and feed my guys .. go up to my room to shower/dress and get ready for work … THANK GOODNESS FOR SEPARATE BEDROOMS …. I putz around in there and then DH calls me down for breakfast he prepared and he is fixing my lunch bag too …. I come down to the kitchen and LO AND BEHOLD THE BIRDS ARE CHIRPING … CHIRPING CHIRPING … I ASK ALL … .what the HECK DO I HAVE TINNITUS OR DON’T YOU HEAR THE BIRDS … that is when the DUFUS tells me that I am hearing the SNEAKERS of the basketball players on the games that he has been WATCHING …. gotta love him!
SHOOT ME SOMEBODY!!!!
This is my empowerment collage today.... My before and TODAY ... because I refuse to forget what living with 5 co-morbidities and impaired mobility felt like .... I take a picture a day ... for my digital journal "a picture a day keeps the pounds and the inches away"....
Maintaining a total loss of 203 pounds and loving it!!

LOL and now you have discovered one of the reasons I hate basketball, I can't bear to hear that sneaker sound for hours, and it is my bf's favorite sport too. I have to admit I do like LeBron James though and was happy to see him win his ring finally. I do hope he gets his Olympic medal too and people will stop hating him.
As for you, you look cute as ever!

I just like swimming, track, waterpolo, gymnastics and soccer .. that is it ... that was the first time I heard that LOUD chirping and we have these fresh little birds out here that swoop down from the trees to peck at one's head ... we have to flap umbrellas or foil paper when they are out ... I was hoping the were not in the house to torment me ... but I did get ticked at Al because he saw me looking for the birds last night ... he could have said something ... LOL
My DH is certainly not letting me live it down LOL ... he told just about all our friends yesterday and they were all LOL'ing at me LOL...
I spent some time last night after the gym working on your canvas ... I am actually making a set of two .... will paint the other over the weekend.... it is still a very rough draft and since you like Sunflowers too here you go... the end product will look much better than this ... this is just a rough draft ... I will work on detailing it with the fine brushes after it dries ....
