I knew it wasn't going to rain today because the birds showed up at the feeder on and off all day even when it was overcast and a bit on the windy side. The Beast, who particularly likes the cardinals, didn't have his camera set up (of course!) and got really annoyed when both the male and female kept showing up. I laughed one of the times because it really looked like the male bird was looking at the door and wondering why the Beast wasn't there taking pictures of him. LOL! The Beast finally got out his camera and took a few pictures of both birds. I haven't seen how those turned out yet but he kept coming back and striking poses. Strange.
The Beast claimed he hadn't been able to sleep last night but I heard him snoring a time or two so I know it just SEEMED to him like he didn't sleep. He just woke up tired and not feeling good so he made that assumption. He took a little nap around noon and was snoring loudly enough that Baron got out of the bedroom and laid in front of the front door and fell asleep. Guess the snoring was too loud for him. Lady, however, I saw was up on the bed and snuggled close to the Beast. It didn't bother her at all...LOL. It might have bothered me if I hadn't been in my computer room with the door closed. It was only when I went out to get some coffee or ice water that I heard him.
He still didn't feel good when it was time for him to get ready for his church meeting so he didn't go. He just spent the evening in his recliner with Baron on his lap. It always cracks me up to see that. It's a good thing he bought an oversized recliner just because Baron likes to be in his lap. It just looks hilarious to me to see that 120 lb. dog laying there like he was a little chihuahua. He even curls up in a ball and goes sound asleep. If the arms of the recliner didn't help support him, I'm sure the Beast's legs would go sound asleep on him when Baron is playing lap dog.
I know the Beast wasn't feeling well because he really wasn't interested in eating at dinner time. He was snacking a bit but not like he usually does. But I decided to make some hot chicken wings (I mean that as *spicy hot*) and, when they were done, he DID eat a couple of those. He likes them, too, but usually eats more than he did tonight. He even went to bed early. Around 8pm or so. But he was tired, I know. His face looked very white...whiter than usual, I mean. I asked him if he had taken his meds today and he said he had when I first reminded him this afternoon. *Grin* Sometimes a little sweet nagging works....LOL.
Gotta get this posted and get to bed. It's late and I am very tired now. I won't have any problem sleeping, that's for sure. The Princess and family took their camper to the Resort campground today. It was Chewlee's last day of school (was only a half day so they didn't send her to school). The Princess had packed up the camper yesterday so they could take off early. It's not all that far away (only 12-15 miles because of the mountain road they have to traverse). I'm not sure if Johnnycakes has off work or not but he can go to work from there if he must. It will still be nice for him to go to the campground after work where he can always swim for a while at the resort's indoor pool and then a short walk to their camper for dinner, which the Princess will have ready for him.
They are staying there until after Chewlee's birthday party. By then, they will probably be camped out for a while and ready to just stay home. June 1st Chewlee's other grandfather will be picking her up to take her to Universal Studio's in Orlando for a couple days. She didn't know about Diagon Alley (from the Harry Potter movies) was open there and she could go see the different shops plus they have a couple neat rides she can go on. That excited her so she should probably really enjoy herself there. Soon after he drops her off, he will be returning to Afghanistan. He's apparently put his house in Destin up for sale and is talking about buying a house here when it sells. The Princess just rolled her eyes over that prospect. She DID say, however, that he has cut back his obsessive buying Chewlee everything she wants since she put her foot down. He wants her approval so he can continue to see his grandchild (his only one and probably will always BE his only one). His son is a waste case ne'er-do-well. What can I say?
It's after 1am and it's 68 degrees outside and calm. I don't think we will be getting any rain tonight but, if it does rain, the sound of it is nice and relaxing usually. I don't even mind the sound of thunder....off in the distance...LOL! Well, love you all. I'm off to bed. My eyes keep slamming shut and I keep zoning off and jerking awake. Be good. Enjoy your Hump Day and ***Hugs***.
