Life is full of things which are hard or tedious or otherwise unpleasant that need doing anyhow. They help make the world go 'round, they improve skills, and they boost your sense of self-respect. But doing them still kinda sucks. It's all the more difficult to do those things when nobody appreciates it. Happily, blogging allows us to share our accomplishments and pat each other on the back.

What are some of the hard things you've done recently? What are some hard things you haven't gotten to yet, but need to do? Is there anything your online friends could do to make your hard things a little easier?/i>

Birdfeeding

Today is cloudy and cold.

I fed the birds. I've seen a large flock of sparrows, a flock of starlings, a flock of mourning doves, a pair of cardinals, and a tufted titmouse.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 2/5/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

I secured the decorative wagonwheel in the wagonwheel garden.

I've seen two male cardinals chasing each other. I heard a woodpecker drumming but couldn't see it.

I am done for the night.

One of the most glorious cartoons I've ever seen. <3 

It has very little dialog, and would make sense even if you didn't speak the language.
