So I finally got around to putting a bird feeder and a couple of bird houses in the back yard again. Now there are birds everywhere. I love it. My dog hates it. There are so many birds that sometimes it drowns out the road noise from the summer "look how loud I can be!!" clowns.
This year has been transformational in our yard for trying to attract nature back. New vegetable gardens, bee friendly plants, new sidewalk, lots of throwing out what isn't needed and fixing old stuff to make it new again. And it is long overdue. But it has been a process, expensive, messy, very time consuming, never ending, and very hard but rewarding work. Wait, am I talking about the yard or Kung Fu? Yes to both. Even with my current injuries, all I want to do is yard work and practice Kung Fu. The nicer my yard gets, the more I want to go outside and do a form. The more I go outside to do a form, the more I see in my yard that needs work. The cycle seems never ending, and I love it. I had to tear down quite a lot in the yard to start to get to what I want, and I have been doing a bit of that as well with my "bad habits" Kung Fu. Both have been messy at times but well worth the effort. Yard work and Kung Fu are never done, they both need constant attention or all the work was for nothing. Time to go pull some weeds and work my upper body with maybe a hands only form ( ankle is down for the count ).
June 14th is only 1 day away, totally excited to be back!!
