Most people think I should take down my hummingbird feeder. It is almost mid-October! But obviously some critters still need the sugar water. This is taken from inside the house through the window. On a warm day there can be 50+, but on a coolish morning or day there are only a hand full of bees. I am happy to keep them going. With the bee shortage, I am happy to see them on my flowers in the summertime and now on the feeder.
I know the downy woodpeckers like the sugar water, too, but I have been putting out sunflower seeds for the birds for a week now. They like that, too.
I am recuperating from the show. I am not so tired. Yesterday I did finish the second bobbin of red thread to ply today. It is destined to be a sweater. I finally made a decision to rip out the hat I was knitting and recalculate the number of stitches. I have done that and I am now 2 inches on the ribbing. I dropped three stitches on the green Norwegian socks, and I will have to sit in good light to pick those up. I finished my book and have started a new one. So I am steadily moving back to normalcy.
I did put my knitting down last night during NCIS. Abby was knitting! Yeah!
I have been getting phone calls from friends that are checking on me and to ask about the show. I guess I did invest a lot of time and energy into the show. That is the opinion of everyone. I am only disappointed that perhaps it wasn't the best show for me to sell. It is hard to know until one tries.
The weather is changing. The light is decreasing slowly. I want to get as much done on the knitting that requires light while I can. Some things work fine in artificial light, and some things are better in natural light.
Nothing else new. Just wanted to show off my bees. I am so happy for them. I know that most people find them a nuisance, but I am happy to keep them going.
