Today is for relaxing and recovering. I've volunteered the last 3 days, and it tired me out. Thunderstorms and intermittent showers (downpours that last a few minutes) and tonight there may be heavier rain. Watching birds at the feeder is relaxing-- |

| Gray Catbird |
The finches love the feeders. Often there are 4 finches on the sock, a couple at the feeder, and one waiting at the top of the sock. My sock has a knot in the bottom--last year I hung it too low and the raccoons tore the end. I am waiting for the deer to find the feeders--I'm sure they will think they're a snack served at eye level just for them. The catbird was shy--I took these pictures while sitting at my table inside--and he just wouldn't move any closer! In the evenings when I turn on the sprinkler birds gather to bathe and run under the water drops like kids on a hot day. That's what attracted the catbird.
My goals last week--- Load the Brown Urban Cabin--QUILTED!
- Finish sewing rows on the TATW quilt--sewed some of the rows
- Rainbow Scrap Challenge yellow blocks--Yes, and more to play with today
Wednesday afternoon I started quilting the Brown Urban Cabin, and it was going so well I didn't stop until it was done. I didn't do a stash report this week, there were no finishes and no purchases. A little sewing, a little sitting in the recliner reading, its going to be a great afternoon!
