Pretty Boy and Pretty Girl and Australian Love Story.

I can't believe what I did today.
No really now, this was so impetuous
of me. And yet somehow I think it
was so meant to be and I am so thrilled
and delighted. Did I mention tickled and
in love????
Introducing the new additions in my life.
Meet Pretty Boy, he has the orange head and a dark purple chest .
And Pretty Girl, she has a black head and lighter
lavendar chest with a turquoise ring around
her neck.
The chest color determines the sex.
I am blown away.
I was itching to get out of the house today
and thought I'll take a long drive up to The Festival Flea Market.
It would be a creative way for me to get in some much needed
walking and I could look at all the latest in discounted merchandise,
whatever...
I was being so good, not giving in to any impluses to buy when
low and behold I hear all this bird noise and following my ears
come upon a booth that has cages full of these incredibly beautiful
Australian Baby Finches.
I asked all kinds of questions. There were several people, coming
and going from the booth, all testifying, unsolicited, what a wonderful
business this women operator runs. How happy they are with their
purchases and such. How she hand feeds and raises all the birds.
Blah. Blah.
So what do you know? I went for it.
I zeroed in on the male Pretty Boy and then let her select a female
to go with him.
They will not mate unless I put a little bird house in their cage.
I still can't believe they are mine.
I can't stop looking at them and talking to them.
They even just gave me their first chirps here, just now.
They were silent all the way home in the car.
Too bad about being in a cage, for them and to photograph
them that way.
AH, nature, what an awsome, inspiring force that I now
get to witness daily in my own little space, right here.
Thank you to the powers that be.
I am so happy and grateful.

See if 3's a charm???

Voila! It worked! This is my third attempt to upload images and this time it actually worked.
These are 3 new listings on eBay.
I especially like the one with the vintage young man image.
I've been having fun being creative and listening to new music.
I am grateful.
Life is good. It is now one week and one day since I had my surgery.
I feel so much better.
The eating and drinking and following all the required protocol has gotten easier too.
I have it down to a science and am dutifully following directions.
I am not getting on the scale until my post op doctors appointment on Tuesday, November 7th.
I know I will be pleasantly surprised.
So now world be prepared for the big results.
Not only from the elections, but from me too.

myra's thoughtsThe question is when I hit publish, will this publish on my original blog, myra's thoughts, or on my new Myra's Blog?
Let's see.

Three Miarcles in One Day

Myra's BlogNow this is what I
call a home run. At last some success in publishing on this new blog. My next
hurdle will be in seeing if my original blog still exists (Myra's Thoughts) and if
I will somehow be able to figure out how to link the two together....
But then, that's for another time.
Not wishing to blow my run here, I'm calling it a day.

That's me on the left with my childhood friend Linda

Two miracles in one day.

Myra's BlogThis is too much...
at last success in publishing something. My next problem is to figure out how to
publish images. Let's see where I get with this....

This is truly a miracle.

I have been attempting to publish on my original blog, Myra's Thoughts, since early this morning to no avail. Such frustration
always involved for me on this site. I have now created this new blog title and will see if I have success in publishing this now.
Wish me luck.
