May or May Not Monday

May or May-Not Monday: Where you can divulge the secrets of life's mishaps without feeling like a failure. So go on... own up. I may have...

I may or may not have pulled probably slightly torn my hip flexor muscle. It feels exactly like bursting an ovarian cyst. But I don't have an ovary to do that anymore. I may have had surgery to remove my ovary when my pain was from tearing my hip flexor muscle. My husband keeps saying don't tell me that. Don't say that and covers his ears while I laugh. If anything my daily migraines are gone since my surgery. So there's that. 

I may or may not have learned from watching Chopped that green in potatoes means arsenic. I consume vast quantities of potatoes in my life and plenty of them have been green. I thought it was just the eyes you had to watch out for. I'm hoping that the boiling dissipated the arsenic. What doesn't kill you makes you -- nah it's just slowly killing you. The long con game. 

I may or may not have requested a bunch of random novels for myself at the library. A couple weeks later they started showing up and while I do remember requesting the books, I cannot figure out where I got the list of these books from. My search history is no help either. So hey, happy surprise for me! Random books that I may or may not enjoy. I read Annie from Father of the Bride - right cause you can't top that role- book on PPA dementia, and typing this not remembering thing is making me feel funny, like maybe I should be concerned. I still want to believe it's from sleep deprivation. 

I may or may not have spotted Air Force One flying over our community on Saturday evening after he was at Yosemite. Yo-se-mite is way more fun to say. My little says it that way and I correct it but secretly I read it to myself as Yo-se-mite. I'll tell him when he has the proper way down. Back to that famous plane. My boy and I were way more excited about the F-16's (5 of them) in formation. Ah who cares that's the plane for our country's leader. Until I read later that it's a super sonic plane that can and has outflown F-16's for speed! Now that I'd be thrilled to see! It's the second time I've seen Air Force One since we moved here four years ago. I've seen it twice ever. Apparently our airspace is very safe. 

I may or may not have a problem differentiating between lb and ea on the price labels at the grocery store. I ended up paying $7.50 for ONE damn tomato.

I may or may not have helped my littles and husband rescue teeny baby birds that were knocked out of the tree and nest during some normal high winds. They were adorable. All three of them, smaller than my thumb, huddled together on the ground. My husband made a nest holder and nailed it to the tree and put them back in per the Fish & Wildlife website instructions. We learned they need to eat every 20 minutes. They are some super needy babies. Also, that birds don't have a great sense of smell and probably won't find them. We didn't know how long they'd been on the ground when we saved them but hoped for the best - life. We checked the nest, they didn't make it. They were eaten. A few bones were left.

  1. My niece and nephew found baby birds fallen from a nest last week as well! They took them to a bird reserve and hopefully they made it! I hope the rest of the books you requested are delightful to read!
