What are you NOT tired of ?

[Nazgul Girl]

   In honor of the " What are you tired of " thread, I thought that I'd post a thread that would give people a chance to say what they're NOT tired of.   It can be anything that you're not tired of.

  I'm not tired of being retired, but it's only been two days so far.  

  I'm not tired of being married to my second DH.   We have so much fun together.

  I'm not tired of my daughter at all.  We have so much fun together.

  I think our poodle is still a great dog after having her for nine years.   She's a 13 lb. mini poodle who was a rescue in D-town, found starving and desperate in an alley.   However, someone invested a lot of time and love in her prior to her getting lost, and she knows how to sneeze on command, say her prayers, heel, come, lie down ( only if you whisper it to her ), and she goes under our bed when she thinks she's bad.   She also just stole a large skewer of raw beef off of a plate tonight, before DH could get it out to the grill.   The skewer was longer than she is.   He said when he found her with it, she was trying to figure how to get a piece of that delicious beef off of the skewer.  
  
  The ASPCA in D-town spent a lot of time trying to find her owner, but she was never identified.  We've had her micro-chipped, so we will never lose her.   She's laying on her two pillows on the floor by the computer as I type.  She's snoring adorably.

I am not tired of my typical Saturday morning happening now: the cats sitting on our necks when we wake up and hubs cupping my boob after they move.

I'm also not tired of wine, running, kabobs (two Saturdays in a row!), procrastination.

Ten months after eye surgery, I am not tired of perfect vision. After 50 years of wearing glasses and dangerously poor eyesight, seeing the world never gets old.

[milee]

I'm not tired of hanging out with my boys.

Hope I never get tired of trying new things, learning new things and researching new things, because every year I grow less and less tired of that.

Unfortunately for my waist line, I'm not tired of cooking food, eating food or thinking about food.

  x 1000.  I love life!  There are so many hills and valleys and amazing twists and turns.  Every day presents a new obstacle or a new thrill.  It's fabulous and I'll never tire of it!

So delicious.  

I never get tired of popsicles and any other cold treat. 

I'm not tired of the internet.

I'm not yet tired of my new gardening hobby, but give it about three more months.

I'm not tired of my engagement ring that i went over budget, way over budget, for! 

I would love to be one of those great people who says that they appreciate life and everyone in it, but I do get tired of my husband and kids, pets and people in general. 

But I never get tired of ice cream!

This is kind of a weird one, but I am not tired of watching the wildlife come to our bird feeder. I hung the feeder right outside our living room picture window and when you're sitting on the couch, the birds are less than 4' away from you, just separated by glass.  There's a cardinal family that has come for 2 years now and it's really nice to watch them raise their chicks. The male cardinal comes multiple times a day and is sassy - he'll even hop over to the window sill, look you in the eye and chirp at you, seems very curious. The female is much more shy and will only feed if nobody is looking directly at her.  In the spring, they'll have a couple of chicks they raise in the big Oak about 20' away. When the chicks are able to fly, the father will bring them over to the feeder and stuff seeds into their open mouths. It's funny because by then the chicks are adolescents and about the same size as the father, but they're just like teenagers - a little scruffy, awkward and dazed, just waiting with their mouth open for dad to feed them.

The morning doves are sweet, chubby and slightly dumb; They're the cows of the bird world. It's tough for them to land on the feeder, so if/when they do make it, they tend to settle in and gently munch away for a long time, regardless of who's nearby.  At different times of the year, we also get Titmouses (Titmice?), Indigo Buntings and some other random stuff.  The boys have a good time researching the type of bird in an Audubon book I got them for Christmas.  Lately I've been experimenting with putting out different types of seeds to attract other birds.  Mixed results.  The new seeds attract lots of Blue Jays, which are gorgeous but can be aggressive and scare off the other birds.

We also grow sunflowers in the surrounding planters, and the birds love to come eat those, too.

It's not all birds, though.  All sorts of other stuff comes to eat the seeds, especially if we put out Sunflower seeds or peanuts.  The squirrels are funny to watch and although they freak out my boys, I enjoy watching the raccoons who sometimes come at night.  They're so funny how they get up on the window sill and reach out for the bird food.  Even if I turn on the lights and tap the glass right next to them, they just ignore me while shoveling in handfuls of seed.  The raccoons are smart enough to know we're on the other side of the glass and they don't have to worry.  For a while a mother brought her baby to eat and it was interesting to watch him grow. 

One downer is that sometimes the seed attracts rats at night.  Ick.  From a technical standpoint, it's interesting to watch them come out and jump to the feeder, eating with their long tail hanging off the side, but I just can't help but dislike them.  So when I notice they're starting to come around, I'll pull the feeder in at night and sometimes even put out rat traps.  I hate doing that and feel guilty, but don't like the idea of the rats being that close to the house.  No idea where the rats sleep at night, but it can't be near the bird feeder because we have a couple of really pretty Indigo snakes - think they're Black Racers or something like that - that live in the bushes right outside the window and under the bird feeder.  Sometimes if we look out the window, we'll see one of them sliding across the walk or along the branches of the bushes.  Whenever I'm in the planting area planting, trimming or mulching, I'm careful to watch and not step on one.  They want to avoid me just as much as I want to not hurt them, but accidents happen and that wouldn't make either of us very happy.  I like the nonpoisonous snakes being around even if they don't seem to always be keeping away 100% of the rats, they're just interesting to watch. 

Anyway, that's probably more description than anybody needed to know, but for about $25 in seed a year, I think we get a lot of enjoyment out of feeding the birds.  Not sure I'll ever grow tired of it.  In fact, I woke up the other night worrying that if/when we tear down this house and rebuild, we'll have to figure out how to move the feeder and wildlife without hurting them.  Also, if we ever sell the house and move, I'll worry that the new owners aren't feeding the cardinal family any more.  I worry about weird stuff.

Oh, and in front of the house I've planted all sorts of things to attract butterflies. The butterflies seem to hatch/emerge in waves, so sometimes there aren't many and other times there are clouds of them.

We always have Monarchs and Black Swallowtails and sometimes Zebra Longwings and Sulphur somethings plus others that come seasonally. 

The "landscaping" in our yard looks kind of scruffy - I don't use any pesticides since those would hurt the butterflies and birds and only occasionally use compost or other organic fertilizer - and many of the plants look like weeds (but that's what the butterflies like!) but I don't care.  I enjoy watching the birds and butterflies much more than I'd enjoy watching the manicured plants.

Are there any books, sites you use to look at to find out what type of butterflies you get? We get a lot too, and I'm interested and think DD will be too as she gets older (turns 3 in about a month). Also would like to know which plants are good for attracting butterflies. DD and I would enjoy it once we get our front yard and back yard fixed up.
