D D I won't tell if you won't

       that it's illegal to keep a squirrel.
If they are injured or not able to be returned to the wild for another reason you are supposed to euthanize them. 

Tell me that you could kill this cute thing. Not I...    I shit you not!
Trying to get her to stay still is a loosing battle.
Kids have been in swimming....go off on their bikes...come back and put their head in the pool...take off again.  A few of them joined Logan for spaghetti plates and lemonade that Jill fixed for them.
She set the table for and made spaghetti for us and Butch and Alexandra  while the kids were off on one of their rides. Even took hubby to the chiropractor at 3p.m. so that I could change my sheets without rushing.
Butch just took Alex home....Jill got a call from kid #9 Michelle and her husband to join them at the Moose.
Moi forgot the meat drawing is tonight. Told her I'll wait until next week.  
Don't want to leave this A/C.. it's brutal out there.
I spy dark clouds above....rainnnnnnnnnnnnnn would be welcome. Had to water flower beds and the garden thoroughly at noon.  Things were drooping. 
It's 6:30p.m....started the pool pump, added chlorine and puttered a little. Sweat is just about to run into my eye.
         Humid, humid, humid.   Thankfully we don't get many humid days in the summer....watch this year be different, just like Spring was early.
Nite, nite.

    Morning arrived in my house 6:45a.m.ish.   TV is turned on. 
Let there be NOISE !
Don't know what time Jill came home...called me close to 8 last night to see if I changed my mind about going to the meat raffle and Jackpot game.
Her son Ryan and his wife Sarah came to swim.   Fell in love with Red.
Moi added a hammock to her cage and she made a nest with  tissue paper. Now she is putting food in it.
   Didn't get to finish that last sentence....the phone rang. Kid#5 Cheryl. A baby bird that is featherless fell out of the attic vent at the top of her 2 story home.  She was in tears as she don't know what to do for it.
Can't stand to see it die.    Do you think some of her mother is in her????
Mom didn't offer to take it...............have the stuff here to feed it, but it has been over 12 hours and from what she described it doesn't sound like it can be saved.  It's a good 10 mile drive from me.
She is going to borrow a ladder and try to put it back in the nest in her attic vent. Can't get to the nest from the inside of the attic.
    Showered off and on for awhile last night. Lightning, thunder......and boy did it cool down. Better yet, no humidity and I get a break from watering today.
The weatherman was right this time.  Off went the A/C.  I shit you not!
Doors and windows are open....fresh air..yessssssssssssssssssss.
  Her landlord came home and used his truck and ladder to get the bird back up in the vent area. He had another man with him that commented " what's the big deal...birds die every day." Cher told him, " so do people."
Since then it has fallen out again into the basket with her sons winter coat in it to make a soft landing for it.
She somehow herself got a pole and what was described to me as her putting it in a toilet paper roll with ? and ? and managed to get it back in herself. Each time she calls she is more hysterical and I sympathize with her.    Been there...done that.
Offered earlier to give her the powdered formula, feeding syringe and cage that I have here.
Her words,.... I can't keep up with my housework, every room except mine is a mess, my kids do nothing to help me, I'm over-whelmed.                 Geez, I know that feeling.  Like join the club.
Her hubby went to work, 2 of her kids are in school ... Her son, my grandson that will be 27 in July just went back to bed.  Noooo,  he doesn't work the grave yard shift.... he doesn't work.
For that matter, Jill has eaten and gone back to bed too.  Works mostly weekends, but not every weekend.
Yup, like mother, like daughter.....we are enablers.   Ugly connatation that word carries.
BUT, if the shoe fits.......wear it!
   If I don't get off my arse , I will fall asleep where I am sitting. 
That's All Folks!
