Not Long Now!

Mum went out reely early this morning leaving me with the dumb fishies. all they do is swim around in all that water and chase each other around the castle. I have my friend in the mirror and she's nice to talk to. 

before I knew it mum was back and she had bags of things with her of things that were for Krismas. she said it was all done and ready for sunday. i'm glad she doesn't like going out to the stores a lot at this time of year because it means she doesnt like crowds too much. but tomorrow she will be out again to do Krismas shopping for food. i cant wait for her to come home from that!

It's Almost Krismas!

My head is feeling much betta, but i'm very hungry all the time now and Mum calls me a guts. i guess i am. Mum's been flying me around the room and nearly each time some of my feathers fall out. its funny.

last week the fishies came and lived with us. they are Riley's fishies and Mum had to go and buy them new food and came home with something for their tank. when she put a new big castle in, she didnt know if they would like it but i did! after a while they began swimming around it and having fun! i think the fish are kind of stupid because they do the same thing all day. 

today is cold. we had a bit of a storm last night and it got cold last night. Mum put my covers over me and kept me warm and she gave me plenty of cuddles, just like i like it. today she kept the doors and windows closed. the day was sunny but now its cloudy again. she will come downstairs again today and use the weird white machine on the table. i like seeing her because shes my owner and i love her.

Sore Head

a few days ago Mum noticed my head was bleeding. silly me I scratched it hard and made it bleed. so she put some cold water on it and with a cotton bud in the bathroom. wow! that was cold! but then, she got some salt water because it didnt stop bleeding, and it really hurt my head. she got really worried and quiet. the light hurt my eyes for while and she held me close.

I'm okay now. my head still hurts a bit, but its better. its not bleeding anymore and Mum clipped my toenails. She thinks its because I'm moulting and the tips on my feathers are making me itch. she is so good to me. she even checked my head today and my head is still red and sore but not bleeding.

Very Hot Days

Its been getting hotter in the days. the otha week Mum got the big fan out and put it togetha and put it on and it made the house nice and cool. and now when she is upstairs she turns it on for me so i am not sutck in a hot house. it feels nice and cool.

my eye is betta now. she sprayed me a few times with water and it got betta. and now my winter feathers are almost gone and its easy to fly round the place and i'm drinking a lot of water too. its been very hot during tha day. but Mum keeps the window open so a wind comes in for me. she is really good to me a night when it gets too hot. she sprays me and i like it.

Hot Day and Sore Eye

I'm moulting and I find this itchy. sometimes when I scratch I get myself in the eye and this year isnt any different. I did that and Mum noticed. when i first did it, she panicked and tried to put some water through it but I didnt like that. so the next time she saw me like this, sheleft me alone and just rubbed around my eye so that i didnt have to scratch and it felt good.

today she did something fun and sprayed me with water to cool me off from the really hot day and some of the water got into my eye and made it feel beter. i love my Mum!

New Millet!!!

Mum went out today to the shopping centre and bought us food. When she came home she said she bought me something speshel, and she did! Mum bought me two different kinds of Millet! There's the fuzzy kind of Millet that's short and weird and I like it because it makes me sneeze but I haven't had that one before. and then theres the other kind of millet i've never seen before! she got me out of the cage and put some on top of it and i ate it all! It was was very crunchy and I ran around eating it all! Yumm!

Mum's Getting Better!

I know she is! she is sleeping thru the night and not coughing like a doggy anymore.. okay she sounds a bit like onebut not all the time. shehas a lot more energy and talks to me more. i'm pleesed she went to sea the human vets to sea what was wrong and get something to help her.

She has also called the place she normally goes to work and told them she is too sick to work this week so she doesnt give it to sumbody else and this is good of her. Im so proud of her for doing this. I just hope she gets rid of this soon so she can celebrate our halloweeeen together. I like it when she gets the lollies all done up for the kids and dresses up.

Mum's Sick!

Mum has been having breathing problems. But unlike me, she cant get a cotton budd and clear away the problem and it'll go away. She has caught a bug from somebody. Late late last night, she came downstairs and took some panadol and went back to bed and left her reading lamp on all night.

This morning the curtains were opened very late in the day, but Mum has this horrible cough. she looks okay and I really wanted to cuddle her and make sure shes okay but she wouldnt let me too close. Mum doesnt want me sick too. 

tonight she let me run along her leg and she chatted to me while we watched Merlin and she knew that I was worried about her. but I know she will go and see the human vets as soon as she can because she is starting to cough like a dog and that's not good.

Loud Rain

We have been getting a lot of loud and dark rainy days. One morning we woke to a loud clouds outside and Mum came downstairs really early. she went out and got some milk and it got darker and darker and abig storm came and there was a lot of rain with a lot of water! there was so muchwater it was at our door wher Mum takes the big purple bags outside. she wasnt happy and took a lot of photos.

a few days later her Mum went out with her and ther was anotha loud cloudy day with a lot of rain and a big storm came. and Mum's Mum stayed to help her with the water and they both got wet and cold. it was something to see. today its another cloudy day and Mum says its cold outside and has kept my window closed. but I know becawse i cant hear my birdy friends talking out there, i know its going to rain again soon.

Mum's Birthday!

Mum had her birthday this week. She has been getting presents for the last few days and showing me them and cakes too. She went out in the middle of the week to her Mum and Dads place and spent the day there and came home with a really big box. And today she went out and came home with lots of books from somebody she knew. And a few days ago before her birthday, she got more presents in the mail for her birthday. Mum got lots of books for her birthday. It was very nice of her friends to send her so many nice things! And she spent a lot of time with me too.

Then on her birthday night the light upstairs went out and she had to change the bulb. Mum hates heights but she did it anywya. After she did it she gave me a big cuddle. i think she needed it so I nibbled her nose and let her know she was okay.

Attacked!

Today was nice and hot and sunny. Mum went out in thebackyard to go andread a book and took me with her. She put my cage on the big white table where I felt the wind and sun on my feathers. but not for long! Lots of big mean birds attacked my cage! I was very scared and moved to the bottom my cage as theyr yellow eyes stared at me and they jumped all over my cage trying to get through! Mum jumped up and grabbed a long green pole from the garden and yelled at them swinging it around. after a little while they didnt come back! but Mum couldnt read becawse she was worried about me... and she gave me a spray with my water bottle too; this helped me be happy in the sun for a little while.

It was good to get back inside nice and safe from the mean birdies who would hurt me if I lived in the outside world; I mean, where would Mum be then? I wouldnt be safe out there, would I?

Leaves!

Yesterday Mum got her dad to cut some branches off a big tree in the back yard that was hanging over the fence. When he cut it she cut some of the top bits off and saved them for me! 

Jay the dog was here running around the place and sniffing the carpet and around the house and out in the grass while Mum's dad cut the branches. Jay had a lot of fun. After Jay and Mum's dad left, Mum brought in the branches and put them in my cage where I ran raound and rubbed my fethersagainst them! Mum picked me up and smelled them saying I smelled like a wild birdie! but I missed my birdie friend in the mirror, so Mum took the branches out and put my mirror back in my cage before bed and snuggled up to her. what a fun afternoon!

Over Night Stay!

Mum and me stayed overnight at her mum and dads.  It was fun with Jay the dog and two fishes this time. The fishes are Rileys and Mum looked after all of us really good. 

Jay was looking for everyone, but Mum was great with her patting her and talking to the fish all day and coming out to see me on the freezer while I looked outside to the day. she made sure I wasnt left out. then made sure I wasnt cold by closing the window. boy! was it hot! We left the windows open as much as we could before going to bed.

today everyone was fed this morning and mum went for a walk and came back with milk. she hung around with us listening to the radio and on the computer until her mum and dad came back. Jay was so excited about that she barked! We came home and I sang to the other birdies here telling them where I had been. but i'm really tired even tho i had a good sleep at the other house; i think mum is tired too.

Apple Time!

Mum's been so nice to me!  The other day she was eating a little apple and put the core on top of my cage and let me eat it!  It was so much fun running around it and chewing on it! And she got a few cool photos ofme eating it!

Ymmy appl !

having shake... stiky apple juice

more appl from the other end this time

Mum's appl core!

Cuddly Mum

For the last few days Mum has been cuddly. I have had a sore eye since the middle of the week and so kept it closed until it felt better. Really I accidentlly scratchd it or bumped it and it felt bad, so i kept it closed until it felt better today.

While it was closed Mum rubbed it gently and it felt nice.  She kept an eye on me and made sure i was okay; and I tried not to be too crabby about not being able to see her. I love my Mum.

Wet and Cold Days

For the last few days, Mum has kept my covers on my cage because it's been cold all day. I hear the wind making loud noises and rain falling outside and against the windows but feel nice and safe and warm here inside where Mum has kept me. She comes by and looks in and makes sure I'm okay while i keep to the back of my cage on my swing all fluffly up and snoozy and she asks me if i'm okay. 

Most nights Mum will wait until her hands are nice and warm and she will come get me out and giveme a cuddle. scratching me under the chin until I go to sleep a bit. she thinks its cute, and while she is doing that its raining outside and cold and windy.

Sunday Reading

Today, Mum and I had a nice morning.  the sun was out and warm and she came ova to the cage and got me out and let me read the paper with her.

She turned the pages while I ran under the left ones. it was fun! then she patted me while I cuddled up to her and she ate her brekfast. Mum let me chew the edges of the newspaper and look around the kitchen table. then it was time to fly back to home.

tonight it rained and got cold.

Warma Weatha

It's been cold at night but the sun has been nice and warm in the day. Mum will take the covers off me and its out there waiting for me! I go running along the perch around in circles just before she does and she laughs. this is because I cant wait until I see the sun to warm my feathers; I think Mum knows this too becasue she smiles when I look outside and run to the corner of the cage and look out there.
Mum is so good to me. She bought me more seed this week and stored it under the kitchen sink until its time for me to eat it. In the afternoons she pulls the curtains and makes sure I'm nice and warm with my covers on me and we watch a show on television called 'Rosanne' and another one called 'Family Ties'; they are old shows. She likes them. Not too late at night, she turns off the television and we have a quiet house sometimes while she goes upstairs and she leave me alone until it's time to turn out the lights and she comes to cover me cage up.

Windy Days

We have been having windy dsays but the sun has been out too. Mum takes my covers off me and pulls the curtain back the sun is lovely and warm on my feathers all day long!  

Then I get and talk to the birdy in the mirror and feed her too and play under the newspaper until Mum comes down from upstairs to do house stuff and read outside in the wind. All day the radio has been talking to me and playing music, but it isthe same stuff all the time and it gets boring. I try to tell it, but it ignores me.

Mum has been putting on her black shiny things the play music and singing to them while she paints. I like Mum's music. it's different. the sun is nice and warm now, I'm going to play in it and saty warm today.

Reely Cold Weekend

I had a night at Mum's parents house. and boy! was it cold!  She went out and had a great time with friends and her Mum and Dad went out too, but they made sure i was toasty and put my covers on me and left the heater on becawse their hosue gets cold.

When they got home they saw I had eatin dinner without htem but I couldnt find my mirror. I looked everywhere for it. It was in my cage at Mums house but when I got here I couldnt find it.  i felt so lonely without it. then in the morning, Mum's Mum found in the floor of my cage and put it up!  My birdie friend had come back! I was so pleesed I had a party singing and running arond the cage! Soon tho I was takin back to Mum's house where she gave me lots of cuddles and I bit her for not taking me out with her. But she forgave me. 

Not Warm Enuff

Its been getting colder each night and Mum's really good at taking care of me. She puts all my covers on me early and closes up the house so it gets all nice and warm.

But during the day when the sun comes in i'm finding its not warm enough. Mum knows this and most times comes and gives me lots of cuddles, then pulls the curtains because the sun goes away and hides behind lots of clouds. 

She is soo cool my mum when I get lots of cuddles in her hands and she chatters to me in birdy language, but she doesnt make any sense. Its jsut words. Isnt she cute?

Sun is out again.

Its been really cold at night, but Mum's had that covered with me by getting me a new cover at the shop. So now I'm nice and toastiar than ever!  Now its been getting colder in the aftanoon, Mum covers me early and pulls the curtins and puts pegs in the centre join so it keeps the cold out. 

I'm glad she does that because then, I sleep warmer. And I think she has been keeping the bathroom window shut too. How nice is that? We've had some nice warm sun, and Mum took a cool foto of us together. Isnt it nice to have photo of us together?

My favourite fotos of me!

Been too cold to write. so here are soem photos i found and I like.

 Mum takes good fotos.. and even tho the last one was embarasssing at the time, I think it's nice now.

Toastie Budgie!

It's been realy cold for a while. the clouds are dark and the sun is hiding from us. Winta is here and Mum has kept me nice and warm from it. She even went out on shopping day and bought me anotha piece of flannel to put over the front of my cage so it keeps out the breeze!  Then, just becawse she loves me, she bought baby spinach too!  I got a nice big peec when she came home after she let me have a fresh piece of millet! 

How good is that!  I love my Mum! 

Winter!

I know it's Winta because Mum has been keaping my covers on my cage longer so I can sleep in.  The sun is nice and warm all day and Mum gives me lots of cuddles and millet all day long. HOw good is that? 

At night, I get the covers put on earlier and the curtains are pulled when the sun isnt around anymore and Mum puts on warm coat. She is always making sure I'm warm and cosy and back door is closed for me. Isnt that great? yes, Winta is a good time for me to nice and warm.

So Cold!

It has been very cold this week and it's really cold in this room. Mum has been keepping my covers on me longer in the mornings cause the sun doesnt come out when it used to. But she has been changing my food early so I can eat when I want to and knows when I get cold in the afternoons. Im getting more millet this week too. I love millet, did I tell you that? I think I did. I'm going to sleep now,  thisroom is too cold to stay in.

Cold MOrnings

In the mornings Mum has been getting me up when I want to stay in bed. She is all dressed in warm things and her hands are cold sometimes when she pulls up the covers and looks in to change my food and water. i'm always on my swing when she does that. 

The other day she put the camera inside the cage and i wasn't in a good mood. she thought it was funny took a photo of me.  I wish she didn't do that. I look at the picture now and I look really mad.

It's Getting Cold!

This morning, Mum pulled my covers off me after changing my food and water and I didn't want to get out of bed.  So, I stuck my head back in my feathers as I sat on the perch in the sun.  She didnt  get it I wanted to go back tosleep. but she went out and left me in the warm sun all day and came home with lots of things from the outside! More than I usualy seen!
Before she went out, she gave me a new millet spray! Oh! she knows I love millet! I ate that all morning and then chewd on newspapa and drank some nice water. by the time I did all that she was home.

A Cooler Day

Today, Mum moved me to my Winta position at the front window. This is where she puts me out of the way of any wind and keeps me in the full sun for the day until the afternoon. Then, she can pull the curtains and put my covers on my cage as she turns on the lights.

Before she closed the house up, she sat outside and read a big book with me out there in the nice wind. There were otha birdies out there and I had a nice conversasion with them for a while. Then Mumtook me back insdie and made menice and warm.

She's been giving me lots of cuddles today; keeping me warm with her hand becasue it has been getting colder now.

I'm Six!

Wow! Mum came down from up the stairs today and uncovered me and gave me a big cuddle saying we have been together for six years! Even in birdie years that is a long time. I was allowed to fly around the lounge room and she changed the newspaper in my cage and she gave me new food too.  And then..! Mum Gave me millet strayght after breakfest!

Yummo! I love millet! I love millet as much as I love cuddles!

It rained today while the sun was out and Mum called it a sun showa. how cool is that? I got a cuddle when it happened and she went back upstairs. I am listening to the radio and the sun is still wrming my feathers. This is a good day.

Dull Shopping Day

Today we had a visitor while we ate breakfast! It was Mum's Dad. He came and talked to her about a letter that arrived yesterday. He reads it and said she could keep it. Then, after she was ready to go shopping, they both went out and it began raining.

Mum left the radio off today and I heard the rain agaisnt all the windos. She came home with millet and a cuttle bone just for me!  And this aftanoon, she gave me a really sweet piece of apple to eat all for myself! She had some too. I had been really mean, so she gave me something nice to eat; and I let her cuddle me. I love cuddles. Soon she put me back in my home and pulled the curtin across to keep me warm. Its cold now and I want my covers on to keep toasty. But that apple was nice!

Sunny Busy Day

Mum was around the house today carrying her clothes around and hanging them on the line out the back.  While she did that, the sun was hot. The radio was on and I took a bath in my drinking water. She didnt see me do it but thowght it was funny when she got back to see me.  

She gave me my big bath but I didn't want it. while she talked to her mum on the phone, they began laughing about somethng on a bottle and then she took the bath out and went upstairs.

This afternoon, she came back down with wet hair, read a book outside, pulled in the clothes and carried them upstairs. Mum does carries a lot of her clothes around and I fnd that funny and strange. We watched some old movies on dvd she enjoyed and she went for a walk before turning out the lights.

Dull Days, Fun Mum

I have found when days get sleepy and dull here Mum puts on funny vampire movies and lots of music. she spends lots of time reading with me and makes sure i am warm too. even when sheis sick, she is making sure i am taken care of. she calls me a toasty bird.

Lkie last night, she was supose to go out to a party, but she stayed home becawse of her cold. so we watched a vampire film and she made sure I nice and warm before she wnet to bed. a big party was going behind our place and she sleep through it. today Mum has been good; pulling the windows and doors shut and making sure I'm all fluffly and warm. I think she is coming downstairs soon to read to keep me company, yes this isa good day. dull but fun with Mum.

Diffrent Week

Mum's had a hard week again this week. She has been sick wiht a cold and went to the dockors to get better. Almost as soon as she left, it got all noisy around here! And she got worried that she left no windows open for me! Over the back fence, all the trees went away and I could see a brick wall a lot of light came in.

Mum was amazed about that! She was mad too because the trees were there for a long time. she has photos of when she first moved here and there were no trees, and now theres no trees again. The nice people who live over the back don't like it either. They werent tole the trees were going away either. they came home and the trees weren't there anymore. I'm sad because all my birdy friends don't come around anymore and talk to me anymore. It's so quiet around here now.

Strange Week

Mum's been sad lately.  One of hers friends died and she got really sad, but I was here to help her and give her lots of feathers and cuddles.  She says I always help with my little whistles and that it's nice I'm here.

The otherday I was let out and flew around when I thought it would be fun to land on the flag she has sitting around near the garage door. but I forgot I can't land on it and ended up behind the china cabinet and got stuck between the wall and it.  Well, Mum pulled it out and found me jammed there with my feet hanging down!  How funny is that? She rescewed me and made sure my wings were broken. 

She also got me off that horrible Pellet food. she sed she talked to a breeder in South Australia on the net and they told her that what she was doing is right; and I don't need the pellets. How good is that? This is saving her mony too.

Also on Friday, she pulled my house apart, put me on her shoulder and scrubbed it all out.  I thought to make it more fun and try and poo on her while she did it.

Well, we had a intresting weekend. She went out yesterday and came home late from a friends' house.  even though she was tired, she still gave me a cuddle before going to bed.

Cold Wet Weekend

It's been boring. Raining since yesterday and raining last night and raining today. But Mum has put my covers on me and pulled the curtians and kept me warm. She gives me cuddles and makes sure I have lots to eat.

I've been talkign to the birdy in the mirror and sleeping a lot. My new feathers for Winter are coming through and my two big tail feathers came out the other day, and Mum kept them in the gold box she keeps all my feathers.  I saw them all!  They are all there, and I think it's disgusting! She thinks it's cute.

I'm going to have a snooze soon.  It's raining again.

Out In the Carport!

The other day, Mum set up a seat and some books outside on a colourful table and took me outside in my cage and put me on the bin for the afternoon.  While she sat for a long time and read, I enjoyed the wind in my feathers, had a bath in my drinking water and sing to the other birdies. 

But the family of bad Micky Birds flew around and made me scared.  So Mum took me back inside. She reemembers the time they attacked me and I didn't like them. I have tried to forget them, but its hard. 

We saw a lizard with a blue tongue and Mum took soem photos of him. then we saw a really big one and he just went into the place of spikey plants. She loves these lizards, says they are lovely as she photografs them. She came inside soon and packed her seat away. She was tired that night.

My Weekened Away

Mum went to a birthday party last Saturday. So she got her Mum and Dad to look after me. As soon as I arrived, I had a bath and splashed water all over her Mum; it was funny. Then, I talked to the other birdies that were around! They have more birdies outside their back window than i do out my front lounge window.

I was brought home on Sunday afternoon and Mum was tired, but so happy to see me, she gave me a cuddle straight away. i love her. She is so good to me.

Warmer Days

Mum's been really good to me lately.  She has made sure I'm eating my food and drinking plenty and thatmy millet is fresh. And yesterday, we even sat outside before it rained to read for a little bit.  I loved the cool wind in my feathers... it was lovely.

This morning, I felt very tired and Mum was concerned about me. She watched me andfound my food was sore again. I think this will take a long time to get better. I somtimes feel good; and other times feel sore. But Mum is always there to give me lots of cuddles and make sure I'm comfy.

Feeling Better - Yay!

It's been a long time since I wrote. but my foot has been very sore and I havent been able to land proper when I fly around (faceplanting the cage is embarassing!). So, I thought it was better if I left the posting until I was better.

I haven't eaten much because I've been in pain; and so I lost a little weight. Mum's noticed and has been giving me a lot of much needed cuddles and been feeding me by hand. She loves me a lot and knws it hurts me a lot to eat from the tray.

But today, I had a wonderful thing happen!  This afternoon, I was really hungry... I ate from the food tray Mum showed me, then drank some water, ate some millet, looked outside... then ate more from my food tray on my own!!  Then got into drinking wter on my own too!  How good is that?

She is so proud of me and I'm feeling so much better that I got to be out on her ankle for a longer bit of time to watch Dr Who on the ABC all the way through; then That 70's Show too. She even let me put myself away too. I'm not falling off my swing either!

Sore foots

I havennt writen for a while. this is because i was taken to the vet for a checkup and we got a new vet who grabbed me with a towel. I hate towels. Mum told her I hate towels, but she didnt listen. Now, I have a sore foot. Its getting better, but I cant type much.
I'll write more when i'm better.

Overnight Stay

I had an overnight stay with Mum's parents while she went out to a party far away from here.  The day before yesterday, Mum had her Mum come over and sent me off to the house where there different birds to talk to.  I had lots of fun; but they kept moving me around.

And, you know, Mum's not the only one who can pat me really soft.  Her Mum put her finger against my chest and patted me really gentle and said I was was sweet; but really I didn't know what to expect, but I was good and didn't bite her (I think Mum wouldn't want me to).  Well, Mum's Mum smiled and said that I was very good all day and sang all the time.  Mum's Dad spoiled me by talking to me all day too. 

Then, I was brought home while Mum wasn't here. They opened the front window and made sure I had my water and food and I found it very warm until a while later, my Mum walked through the door looking very tired!  She was really excited to see me sitting here waiting for her and gave me a cuddle straight away!  Then, she opened the back door, put on the fan and put on the radio... and the house was a lot cooler straight away.

Today, Mum isn't feeling good.  Tired from yesterday I think.  So, she is taking it easy and not doing much. Me? I'm just hanging out here listening to Triple M... well, that's what the radio keeps telling it is.

Sticky Hot Day

Mum went out today and took the blue thing on wheels with her... saying she will be back soon as she could.   Well, while she was out, it was very hot and the fan was good pushing nice cool air around.  The window was open next to me too; until the clouds came and so did the rain!

It all came in the front and wet through the lace!  I got wet too!  Mum wasn't here to close the window - and I did try to get her attention by tossing my food tin, but she didn't come and close the window!  So, it kept on coming.  Soon after, she came home and dried everything.  And guess what???  I got new bells!  She had to take them off a piece of leather but they sound really cool!  And one of them is on a long chain... I love it. 

A Little Bit of Sun

Mum's been really worried about what's on the box in the corner. They've been showing places with water and buildings and people being taken away from their homes. This makes Mum cry. I wish it didn't. Then, she cuddles me and cries a little again. I think she's scared.

It's been raining a lot too. But today, the sun came out just for alittle while and it looks good. But I think it will go away. Lots of people are really quiet around the place. Last night we didn't hear any traffic around the streets and Mum was up late. She was really quiet too. Now, I'm worried. I wish all that water on the telly didn't scare Mum so much.

New things

Well, the new year is here. Mum bought me millet spray and more cuttle bone for Christmas; and then couldn't take me out on Christmas Day because it was too wet.  I didn't mind, it was nice to stay home and watch the rain fall outside and hear the whild birdies sing and screechand fly around the place.  I sang back, but don't know if they heard me.

Well, the rain has been coming and going. And there is  lots of floods everywhere. Lots of people have had their houses flooded up the coast and it's horrible to see on the television.  Mum wonders if the rain will stop long enough for them to get back to normal. I just hope we don't get flooded like that.

Happy Budgie New Year.

It's very late and Mum doesn't know I'm on here, but I haven't told you that our New Year Eve night wasn't fun... well, all we did was sit and watch some vampire show on dvd.  And I didn't mean to be rude, but I fell asleep at 9pm.  Mum was bored too... but she stayed awake until midnight and gave me a cuddle and listened to the fireworks in the distance.

At least she made some sweet popcorn, read a little and got to sleep in the next day because the noisy next door neighbours didn't come home until lunch time. It was raining and hot, but it was an okay first day of the new year I guess.  So, Happy Budgie New Year!  May all your seed be fresh and your millet be yummy!
