Another day, more clay
Still conditioning clay for Cabin Fever Clay Festival. Today will be black and white - 12.5 oz of each.
It would be nice to do something besides conditioning clay, but what with having to prop up my foot and ice it fairly often, I don't get a lot of time to be sitting up! Fortunately it's the weekend at last so my schedule is not so busy. And next week maybe I can start exercising again. I'm sure there are exercises that don't require lots of standing up - well, I think so.
Today is a FeederWatch day. I wrapped my foot in an ice bag, propped it on a kitchen chair, and stared out at the bird feeders for a while. Gee - I wish they had me counting squirrels! We did get a white-throat sparrow yesterday along with the usual crew. This is the first time in about 3 years that I've had a bird bath heater that actually works. We're getting larger groups of cardinals and goldfinches (and squirrels) than in past years.
