Around the mouse-house today.

We've had days and days of sun-shine. Oh, it's cold but when the sun shines bright you barely notice the temperatures. The flowers and cats are soaking it up at the dining-corner window.

The birds have been partying at the feeders. They need their feeders filled every second day now as they try to keep their weight up over the cold winter. I'm mostly seeing chickadees, blue-jays, downy wood-peckers, mourning doves, sparrows, starlings & crows.

The retired-guy and I have been a bit under the weather with a chest cold which tends to keep us home more. That being said, more improvements are being made at the mouse-house. You can't sit around and do nothing all day.

Well, maybe some of us can.



My African Violets were getting a little too hairy, if you know what I mean, so it was time to find them a new spot.
I had seen this idea on a beautiful blog
so a rustic piece of pine was installed in the window to give my plants 'a lift.'
This will work great.



And, I'm thinking Audrey will be happy with the top of the fridge and not need to soar through the air to this window shelf. 
It's a crapshoot, really :-b

"Thanks Robin for sharing your great ideas."

Drop over and meet Robin. Her home is so, so beautiful and full of charm.


I hope you have a great day,
