The Ring

January 8, 2021

Good afternoon.  I'm getting a late start today.  I get started doing something, then I get side tracked.  My middle name should be "side tracked."  I think a lot of it lately is this "Ring" thing.  I'm finally getting used to the sound of it's ring, but it seems to ring all the time.  Sometimes it feels like I have the busiest yard in town.

When I hear the "ring" I turn my phone on, turn the "ring" on, then I press activate.  By now if there's anyone outside that should not be there, they've had plenty of time to get away.  This morning, one of the times that I turned it on there was a little bird outside on my hedge hopping around and chirping up a storm.  He was such a happy little fellow, I called him my mariachi bird.  He was out there twice this morning.

Every day, I try to catch the mailman on the "Ring" but so far I haven't had any luck.  It rings when he comes up to my porch, I turn on the phone and hurry to activate the "Ring."  When it comes on, there's no one outside by my porch.  As a matter of fact, the mailman has left my yard, gotten into his little truck and driven off.  Obviously I must be doing something wrong.  But what???

Here's a thought I borrowed from the web to share.  By the way, those smudges on the windows are called "nose art."  It's priceless.

Now I'm going to do some blog reading.  So, till Sunday, Y'all stay safe and have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.

We have the RING and have it set for people only. We are near the woods and would get lots of critters setting it off. You can also set the distance that it reaches. Perhaps if you are missing your mailman, it needs to be extended a little. There is a little delay. For instance when a delivery is made and I hit the ring to see who it is, it isn't ready for me to see yet. If you go live, you can see what's going on real time. I love it though and hope you get it fixed just right for you:) HUGS!

Whst a great thing to have your own "mariachi-bird"hahaha. It sure brightens up your day.

Perhaps you could hang a little note for the postman with the request to ring and wait a bit longer till you can answer him at the doorbell "ëye"?

Of course you should be able to talk with him through the phone and app for the doorbell, but don;t ask me for instructions, sorry!
Isn;t there any way to find out on the net with a decent instruction manual?

I just am back from the kitchen where I prepared for tomorrows dinner and also for Monday(and perhaps Tuesday too). For tomorrow it is just making easier for myself, but on Monday we get the new windows and I will have a big cup of good filled soup for dinner then. Now already prepared all that will go into the soup.
Feels good to have done that now, and will be great for the next days.

Have a lovely day,stay safe!
