I had an exam today. 😖 Didn’t do much else besides that, studying, praying and sleeping.

Enjoyed our first fire of the year in our fire pit tonight.
I may or may not have had some peach moonshine. 😋

Did you go to daily mass?

I did. In fact, I went to Mass twice, as I always do on Saturday. I went to morning Mass and confession, as is my custom, and then I took my mom to the Sunday Vigil Mass, because that’s what she prefers. Saturday is my holiest day of the week.
 
I played for the 5 PM Mass, went to dinner at Cracker Barrel and finished a book I was reading.
Sipping ice water and thinking about going to bed.
Got to get up early for tomorrow’s Masses and choir.
 
I took the car in for an alignment and to have the tires balanced . Then I went to work…

I had a really mellow day at work. After driving a co-worker to his mechanic to get his car, by coincidence I happened to go by my parish just before the vigil mass and just in time to stop in for confession, but I didn’t.
 
I served at a wedding. And then went to the reception. Now I’m tired.
 
I went shopping with the wife this am, then worked in the yard some. I sat outside for quite bit and read some too.
 
I got up and took a long, relaxing bath after morning prayers, then got a green tea frappuccino. Had my hair done in the afternoon and enjoyed a pizza with a family member.
 
I drove to the city and back this morning(2hrs) then enjoyed a beautiful Autumn Sunday watching a movie and wandering about the garden…should do some watering now.Kind of a sleepy dreamy day.
 
As I type, it’s early Sunday morning (3:35am) and Mass hasn’t yet begun in any of our parishes.
 
Have the birds started calling lily? 🙂
I imagine you must turn in pretty early!
 
We do have an early bird that gives Chicky Roo a run for his money. This little bird starts serenading us around 2am each morning. The rest don’t get up til about 4am.

And yes, I’m an “early to bed, early to rise” gal. Always have been.
 
Wow that bird wakes so early !🤣 Eager for the day or maybe his internal clock is confused. @tad might know what kind of bird it is.
I should send you over one of my young roosters ,he’s so friendly and cute 🙂
 
Chicky Roo and I would love a play date with your young roosters. I can see them chatting with one another as they’re given the grand tour. Do your roosters try to come in the house?

Chicky Roo had to be someone’s pet before he showed up in our yard because he comes up on the porch and pecks at the door when he wants his food and climbs into my lap and lays his head on my shoulder when he wants to be petted.
 
I’ve been up since 5 and it’s just starting to get light. I’ve answered my two big questions for the day, where I’m going birding and where we’re going to mass. I’ll be out the door soon.

Your mystery nocturnal crooner is probably a Northern Mockingbird. They’re famous for it. If it goes on forever and has a lot of variety, that’s your bird. I’ve been listening to White-winged Doves in the middle of the night. They’re song sounds like, ‘I’ve lost control!’. Right now the House Finches are whistling about how excited they are for a new day.
 
If pidgeons were clean ,I would love to have them cooing in my roof.Or have a proper dovecote in the garden or yard.Have fun bird watching .

Yes, that looks (and sounds) like the bird.
