I live near Sacramento, California and the City of Sacramento is building an arena for the NBA team, the Sacramento Kings. There is an uproar over the art that will be displayed ... the powers that be chose an artist from New York (Jeff Koons)for the big centerpiece of the arena; but Sacramentans wanted, and were assured by the folks driving the arena construction, that LOCAL artists would be used. More uproar added when the art that was chosen is an interpretation of Winnie the Pooh's "Piglet" ... um, okay. Piglet for a basketball arena ... makes ummm, well, perfect sense, right? What a mess!
What do you think? Should Sacramento (also known as "Sac-Town") use local artists? And should the art reflect the Kings?

Homage to A Fluffy Velociraptor
It's time I share news about the Fluffy Velociraptor. Last September (2016), My husband and I went to a local park and had Jo Jo with us. We've done this countless times because she loves eating the grass and exploring around where we sit. We particularly wanted her to enjoy her time since she had been acting strangely for a few days. We put it down to her being an old lady at 11 years old, but my husband kept mentioning that she may be at the end of her life since she was showing classic signs of hiding an illness. I was in denial and tried to make her trip to the park a good one.
We have never had any issues with her being startled and fly
Life With Birds Comic!

Check out Emmil's https://emmil.deviantart.com/ new bird comic (link above) that she recently has been developing. For those of us who adore her posts and pics of her cute feathered kids, this new comic Life With Birds is really hilarious. She is such a wonderful artist and brings her own experiences arising from so many of her feathered kids. Each of the Fids (Feathered Kids, for those who weren't sure) have a unique personality and she captures them beautifully with her comic. Please check it out and let's support Emmil in this! Thanks and be well!

No Movers?
I just moved about 10 blocks and did it during the incredible heatwave that NorCal was having. 105-110 degree weather the entire week we moved. Ouch. We don't own a car ... we like city life including riding public transit, so we had to rent a moving truck. And it was only my husband and I doing the moving ... no help.
Why no help? We have numerous friends, and have helped nearly all but one move ... a few of them we even helped move a couple of times and from greater distances than 10 blocks. I asked if anyone was willing to help, and nearly all to a person said they would gladly do it.
Moving day started to creep up o
My Curfew Has Been Set By My Bird!
Moved Jo Jo, the Fluffy Velociraptor's 'living space' into a different room where we hang out at night, and was really worried that she would freak out and start plucking the feathers that she only recently let grow back.
The first night, she was quiet.
The second night, we heard her quietly making kissy noises to George (her, um, boyfriend?) http://fav.me/d2ydd8m and the head of Tweety Bird. http://fav.me/d4ijhgo
The third night ... promptly at 10:00 p.m. she started making her "I am NOT happy!" chirps, so I went to investigate. When I took the cover off her cage, she was s
