Live Hummingbird Nest Cam – Oceanside, CA

Your watching a live broadcast of wild female hummingbirds nesting.

There are several Hummers that nest in this yard. Their nests are usually located bushes and no larger than the size of a golf ball. The nest is made from feathers, leaves and other parts of plant matter. She then wraps this material together with spider webs. The eggs she lays are about the size of a breath mint(tic-tac). Hummingbirds lay 1 or 2 eggs per clutch. You can expect to see them hatch after about 14-16 days from the date they are laid. The chicks will continue to grow in the nest for about three to four weeks before fledging. More information about the cams, set-up or to make a donation please visit alyssasnaturesanctuary.org.

Hello…dentist appts today, then Olive Garden to use the gift card I won (guess how many hearts in a jar)..I got the spaghetti with five cheese marinara, DH got lasagna, and she even gave us a big container of salad and dressing to take home, and more breadsticks, too! Went to kohl’s and saw some things I liked but too expensive…maybe I’ll check back in a couple months to see if they are on sale..got a dog toy and dog treats at Target, and DH got a dog frisbee at Menard’s. So all we bought is dog stuff, lol…it’s nice… Read more »

I tell you Jo and her sister are healthy people. Jo was going to call her sister and tell her about the cardio visit. I asked, what is your sister treated for? Jo’s response: thyroid. Me, is that all. Jo, yes. Me, no blood pressure, nothing else? Jo, no. The woman is 88.

I have more than a few, but quite a bit fewer than I was on. 3 pills, 2 shots that are prescription only. Then some things over the counter and/or prescription.

Hello!! So, early this morning I worked on setting up an account for the IRS because the letter said that IRS employees could not update account information. It took me awhile but, I got it done. So I didnt need to call them. Now I am wondering if I need to make Rick an account since both of our names are on it and on the IRS check they want to electronically deposit it. I cleaned so the house is clean for a day. Did more laundry too. Now we are going to eat left over chicken parm since two… Read more »

Hi Ardy, seems if you file jointly and the checking account is in both names you wouldn’t need two accounts. But what does a single person know? I assume one of you did the taxes online?

We dont do our taxes. My sisters husbands brother does them.
I googled it and we only need one account with the IRS. Not sure about that last sentence.

No, you do not need individual IRS accounts for both spouses to receive a joint tax refund via direct deposit. The IRS can deposit a joint refund into a checking or savings account held in your name, your spouse’s name, or both. Only the primary taxpayer (listed first) needs to set up the direct deposit information when filing

Jo is home. Cardio wants her to have a stress test. Not to concerned tho unless the stress tests showed some. Gave her a 6 month return appointment.
Jo has an appointment in Somerset tomorrow to have her van service, oil change, et al. I’m going to and go to the farm and Walmart.

I’ve had I think 3 stress tests, the first was on the tread mill! Yuk. The second one was chemical and it was horrible too and very scary. The third one was chemical and I hardly knew I had it.
