It's July 14. Today Claire begins her new job. Good Luck Claire.

The sun rose about 6:15 a.m. a big beautiful red ball in the sky. The deer have been eating my bird seed again, so I will fix them. Cayenne pepper.

I miss the grosbeaks and other cool birds that were here earlier this spring. But, last night while digging through my boxes of books, I found many informational pamphlets for backyard bird feeding.

I'm considering becoming a wild bird yard.

As far as art projects. My dyed black jacket did not turn out like I had hoped. But, I will continue on...

On the other hand, my stained glass trinkets and dyed fork have potential. Also spent some time stringing beads for another necklace. The bad news is... I'm running out of time. So, I really need to begin finishing projects and not starting any more.

Today, however... it's back to work.
