April Showers at the Bird's Nest 2021

Welcome friends old and new to the Bird's Nest for April.

Among the trees is a bird's nest,

and in the nest her three eggs rest,

and in each egg, Hush, you'll be heard!

There lies asleep A tiny bird.

@Bird mama 

Thank you for setting up the Birds Nest for April!  Love that cute little birdie and also the little owls!!! 

As for your Moderna shot I had the same thing happen to me but on the second shot.  The shot was given to me very high up almost in my shoulder and it hurt a lot.  The next day it was badly bruised and black and blue.  It all lasted about 3 days but other than that I was fine.  On the second day I had a doctors appointment and I showed her the bruised area and she said it definitely was too high up but not to worry about it.  Same person gave my husband his shot and it was lower than mine.  His was fine.  I think it was a rushed job as they were 2 hours behind their schedule.  Sorry that you had to go through that and hope that it feels better soon.

Nice to hear that you saw more than one chipmunk!!!  Perhaps it is a male and a female and they will be a family.  Babies are so cute!

Yum, your Easter dinner sounds delicious.  Also your lemon cheesecake sounds so good!  We too are having ham, sweet potatoes or mashed potatoes, green beans and a chocolate bomb cake that we ordered.  I made a lemon cake yesterday morning that I was going to make for Easter and even though it was a box mix doctored up it was moist and very good.  I am still limited to what I can and cannot eat but all that I listed should be ok except for the chocolate bomb cake...lol.  I usually make an Italian Cheesecake but no longer can have dairy products so that ended that.  DH could not eat a entire cheesecake himself.

 

Today was cloudy and rained on and off but we are expecting a heavy rainfall later on this evening.  Can't complain because we really do need the rain.
