Au revoir beeping birds!

Hello!

Today is supposed to be another hot and humid day, man I hate those freaking birds! Every time I start doing my blog they start chirping plus the A/C, not a very friendly speech recognition area.

So what type of week did I have so far? Well is being very very quiet, beside the birds, got connected with someone in Facebook. A second generation cousin that I knew when I was a little boy. We started to talk and this person provided me with some very old pictures. I got some of my great grandparents when they were young. These pictures must be at least 100 years and some physical familiarities started to appear. My great grandfather looks a lot like a nephew of mine. Also, I got in touch with a person who I think is also a second generation cousin, but I have to confirm it with my mother.

Shhh! You hear that? That’s the sound of silence. The birds are quiet; I think they sense their final goodbye. But let me backtrack so that you can understand the story.

Back in late June, early July my mother in law got a new apartment. The landlord even told her that she would get a month of free rent. But he came back and told her that he wanted to fix the floors, the bathroom, the kitchen… etc. So that was the free month. She moved in to my place telling me that she would be here for a couple weeks. I agreed to that. She also came with a couple of birds and a whole bunch of plants. At the beginning I didn’t mind the birds, even their chirping was adorable.

But after a while of hearing this it became unbearable! Even my daughters were fed up. So the beeping birds’ leaving is OK with me. I think the only good bird is accompanied with a side order of French fries and barbecue sauce. Au revoir beeping birds!
