Katsolo's Journal, 09 July 2022

After a week of very relaxed eating (donut holes, cake, hamburger, etc.) time to get back to normal. I have a ton of berries in the fridge, need to tend to them today to make sure nothing goes bad. I hate waste like that. The last of the watermelon is on the menu. Thinking with feta (surprise!) and balsamic vinegar. Will use the good stuff for that and dessert it up. Bought fresh greens yesterday, and the kale salad mix looked like it contained kale so got one of those. Fingers crossed.

I'm out on the deck surrounded by hummingbirds once again. I ordered a new feeder because one was leaking and they sent me a red plastic one which I was going to return, but the birds are going bonkers over it, so I guess we'll keep it and keep an eye on it. The container part is red plastic, I usually have clear glass. More of a NextDoor debate, and I'm sure I'm guilty of hummingbird abuse for using plastic. I also feed them sugar water! whatever. 🤪 Wish I was better at capturing them in flight but they're so fast. Not going to happen unless I'm filming them.

Rowed last night, going to sneak another one in this morning, planning on swimming this afternoon. No critical errands today so yard and cleaning only - Yay! Only 6.1 METs, with average heart rate at 125, but I was definitely sweaty. I'm saving the workouts I like the best, this was one of them, but I could definitely have worked harder looking at the numbers. Still love it.

Gorgeous day, weekend rules, enjoy the day!

neat!! a lil tip came to mind from my therapist to heal overeating: ask yourself- waist or waste? you are not a garbage disposal!! do not feel obligated to "eat up" and overeat food that will spoil(add to waist)! Give it away or throw away(add to waste), eat what you can realistically! i hope this helps!

I love your hummingbirds. Smithsonian Zoo says one part sugar to four parts water is just what they need, so you're doing it just right.

Have I posted any pics of when I’ve held them? It’s rare, but I have held a couple when they’ve gotten into problem places.

Katsolo, I have been feeding hummers since I was a youngster, and my brother is a doctor of Zoology. You’re OK with that feeder. I love my glass ones, but their bottoms are plastic anyway. Can you please explain what you’re supposed to feed if not sugar water????🙃 Orioles love it too!!! I have no recommendations as you’re doing everything right!👍💕 When my girlfriend wanted to start feeding hummingbirds I told her 1000 times at least, that it is 1/4 cup sugar to 1 cup water, of course she fed a half cup to one cup water!! I don’t know why she did that, but her hummers were probably drunk, yet she had hundreds and they loved it - so I have increased mine to about one and a half cups sugar to 4 cups water and mine love it also. I asked my brother if there was anything wrong with that and he said he didn’t see anything wrong with it, but I should go with the one part sugar to four parts water, nahhh!!!😁 Enjoy them, you’ve had them a long time so you’re doing something right!❤️
