Out like a lion….

Posted

It’s supposed to be that March come in like a lion and out like a lamb, but this year is different. 

As I sit here it is 26 degrees out.  I know that this too shall pass, but enough already!  I did manage to do a little yard work during that brief time on Sunday when the sun was shining. It was 50 degrees, and I could feel spring in the air, so I know the best is yet to come.

On to more news about my woodpecker.  Since he comes to visit at least 4 times a day, I’ve decided to name him.  He has a bright red crest, so I’m naming him Red.  The theory is that he hammers on my steel chimney to attract female woodpeckers.  After he is done making a racket he flies across the street and perches on a tree. I tried scaring him off with a mylar balloon, but it didn’t work.  He mocked me and came by moments after I put it up!

My friend, has a different theory.  He thinks that he already has lots of females in his life.  He believes that he has them lined up for the day and makes the noise to bring on the next one. 

Interesting….so my chimney is more of a bachelor pad?  I’m thinking of how I could charge him!  I’m pretty sure that he is not doing damage to my chimney but besides being highly annoying, it also scares my dog, Lucas.  As soon as he hears the hammering he retreats to his crate.  So again I ask, does anyone know of a match.com or eHarmony for woodpeckers?  I need him to settle down, find a mate and move on!

Update on my 11-day shred.  I’m down 5 lbs. in one week.  We have 4 more days left of the shred and I’ve decided to continue on to a 30-day reset.  I’ll keep you posted.  If you have any questions or comments you can reach me at SixtiesAndSexy@gmail .com.  I’m also putting information on what I’m doing to look great for spring at SixtiesAndSexy.net.
