I have not seen my Cariologist to have my pacemaker reading in 3 years. So I had an appointment for today.......The reading showed no signs of A-FIB in three years and my heart sounds great. I still need to lose some weight but the heart seems to be doing good.

That's always good news about your heart checkup. I bet most of us get told to lose some weight from the doctor.

We recently had two hummingbirds get into our house. No one I called would try to remove them, so I was on my own. Someone on YouTube suggested a crazy idea. He said they always fly up and toward the light and he created this type of trap that they flew up into. It worked and I was able to release them both outside! I did my good deed for the day.

I gotta say, first seeing hummingbirds out here was a frickin' trip.
Always heard of them and saw pictures, of course, but when one was just sitting there in front of me, floating 'unmoving' in mid-air while checking out a persimmon tree...I really had trouble processing what I was witnessing.

We used to get hummingbirds around in my mother's yard in central Massachusetts. They would dip down to get water from the grandkid's kiddie pool. It was very cool to watch.
