I kicked myself after posting because it really is hard to believe unless you have seen birds and other animals interact with each other. I first noticed this type of activity when I looked on a tree by one of my bird feeders and saw dove, dove, small hawk, dove. A What? reaction set in. Living in the part of the midwest I do the most common thing you see is birds suddenly diving for the bushes. On a clear day you will see at least two hawks hunting. On a overcast or rainy day you need to take shelter because you will have a heavy rainstorm with hail or very high wind with driving rain. Watching wildlife and how they interact really helps you learn about peoples interactions. If anyone notices or has additional things that they have heard of I for one would be happy to hear of them.

OMG. I was thinking of something like this. LOL. I told my hubby I wanted an Ipad so I can upload my crochet directions and not have to print them out all the time. I just couldn't figure out how to hold it up to read the directions. This is a perfect set up, but not the toilet paper. LOL. I'll have to show this to him.

My old kitchen has one circuit for everything but the stove and lighting. You cant run the microwave if the crockpot is on, the dishwasher is on, and the fridge is running. I have to prep with my back to the stove. The cabinets are falling off the walls. The stove is right against a cabinet side. You cant open the oven and dishwasher at the same time. There is one sink. It is only 27"wide. I feel nothing but glee at the prospect of my addition. We paid hundreds of thousands less for this house than the going rate because of this stupid kitchen. Fixing it is a long time coming! I am trying to be careful enough about my choices that in 20'years, I will need to do no more than replace the cabinet fronts and maybe countertop if it's dated. If I get the layout right, that will be the case. :) But I'm choosing cabinets that look a lot like the originals. So hopefully not even that! I am the only one in my circle who keeps cars forever. I don't like them. I got super advanced safety features when I got mine. When I have to get another, I'll do it again. But I've had housekeepers with much nicer cars than mine. :)

I tried to do a search for a video that was done a few years back. The couple was announcing their divorce by videotaping the reason why. They sang to each other and also played instruments. The reason for the divorce was that the husband wanted children and the wife did not. And, she wasn't going to change her mind. They wanted people to know that it might be awkward at first, but to still invite both of them to parties! It was a respectful and unique way of sharing this news. I think that having a "party" shows that the divorce is amicable and leaves no room for rumors.
