Laundry, hummingbirds, job applications. That's what my day has consisted of. Oh, and reading SLOG so I make sure to have my daily allowance of sarcasm - gotta have that.


In between piles of laundry (for which I have to go outside to access the basement) I have been forlornly looking at the hummingbird feeder swaying gently with no visitors. Why? Have they done away as quickly as they showed up? Is is too cold? Too rainy? Has the food gone bad? Are the squirrels annoying them as much as they are annoying me? 


To avoid sending out more resumes that will go unanswered, I take down the feeder, clean it and make new sugar water. And now I wait like a cat.
