That's alright, I was delivering the kids over to the "sitter's" house and 
driving five hours to the annual priest's retreat.

I'll be changing who I get internet mail to and from fairly soon.  I'm trying 
to get the software working for a provider called "infi.net".  I'm connecting 
but not having an easy time of figuring out the software.

It makes it so much more convenient to get my daily dose of bird mail.  It's 
already here and waiting on me when I get up in the morning.

I guess it's that time of year.  Everybody I know is kinda losing their minds 
trying to get everything done they need to do.  Add to it, I'm going to be 
trying to take a little vac. time before the weather really starts to turn 
and have to not only get caught up but even try to get some things done 
ahead...
If I ever decided to breed Randy I'd have to find a larger mate too.  Such a 
bossy bird.  You should see him pushing Max out of the way when it's head 
scratching time.  (And Max, who is 4 times his size lets him get away with 
it!)

The really well raised ones do settle in quickly, don't they.  Just move 
right in and -take over the whole house-.  She must be pretty, send a picture 
some day.  I'd love to see what she looks like.  
  How about "Aviana"?
Peace
