SRS: I missed the coconut problem. I am missing a lot this week. My current allergy is causing my head to feel not all there and I either don't upload or forget spoken stuff almost as fast as I hear it. Either squirrels or Lara bars? I thought I was getting Ok this morning and, with some trepidation, I ate a Lara bar while driving to pick up a couple squirrels to keep my singleton company and to help out a woman with too many little mouths to feed! By early afternoon it had started all over again. I sure don't see anything in a Lara bar to be allergic to but I've had the one squirrel a week now.

Squirrels:Just over a week ago, a woman found me through the wildlife lovers networks and asked for help. She works full time and they needed to be fed every 3 hours. So I took them. They are down to 4 feedings and sleep all night. There were two but one died on Saturday - suspect avocado OD.

I was delighted to find the woman needing help. I now have 3 and can also help by taking a bunch of mature ones to the country for soft release. Maybe on Thursday. She really has a LOT of squirrels!   

On the way home, it occurred to me that I could walk to the store more often and buy only a few items each time. I simply cannot walk nowhere with no purpose!

Needless to say, I never made it to the country today after 2 hours of instruction re squirrel care and raccoon affairs and the sad state of the SPCA - It isn't just me; they just do not respond! I hope to get to the country tomorrow even though it will be raining. Rain is nice in the country. My brain can be dysfunctional in the country as well as the city!
