Another Monday morning. The cable guy came and went on Friday. Turns out he was up here from Missouri, on loan to the local company, and wasn't familiar with Wisconsin roads. Got my new DVR player, however we found out later that he messed something up when replacing the new with the old. (We had our satellite wired into our stereo system along with our DVD player.) Now the only way we can switch between TV and DVD player is to disconnect the cable and move it to the output we want to use. :o( Called the company and they are sending someone out on Wednesday to fix the problem. Sigh.
Here are a couple pictures of the bluebirds I mentioned in an earlier post. One of them was guarding the nest while the other went and found nesting materials.
The knothole is covered by leaves now and a robin has built her nest right above it.
We visited friends after church yesterday and they have a suet feeder hanging next to their deck. They have little downy woodpeckers that come right up to the deck and aren't afraid of humans at all. The daddy was coming for food and taking it to the baby who hung onto the tree trunk about 10 inches away but was afraid to come to the feeder. It was so neat to watch. I tried to take pictures with my cellphone but I kept messing it up.
Off to the studio now. Have lots of catching up to do.
Prayers would be appreciated for my FIL as he begins his chemotherapy!
Thanks in advance.
Hope everyone has a great day!

I'm sitting here waiting for the satellite man to come. I'm upgrading my satellite receiver to a DVR. This past Monday, hubby and I went to Milwaukee with his brother and wife for a Brewers baseball game and I was going to miss the season premier of "The Closer". I love that show! Lo and behold, Andy, hubby's brother, has a DVR receiver and was able to record it for me and then have his daughter put it on a DVD for me. "How cool is that?", I thought. So, I called DirectTV and, since I am such a "Great Customer", they are upgrading my system for free. Well, not so free, after all. I had to commit to keeping my dish subscription for two years. Since we live out in the country, otherwise known as "cable wasteland", there is no fear of not wanting satellite TV anytime soon. However, they said the guy would be here between 8 and noon. It is now 11:45 and where the heck is he?!? I have quilting to do! Didn't want to head for the studio because I am home alone with noone to hear him knock over the sound of the machine running.Speaking of quilting, I am so seriously behind. Mark's parents were both diagnosed with colon cancer in the last month. We've been through three surgeries between the two of them and my father-in-law is about to start chemotherapy. Fortunately, I have loving, and very patient customers. If you are a customer and you are reading this, let me just say that you are wonderful and I so much appreciate your patience and understanding as I play "catch-up". SO....thanks for "listening". It's 11:55 and I am heading for the studio. Guess my DVR will show up when it feels like it. Have a GREAT DAY!!!!!Piecin' Love, Terri
