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.
