New Year, Home and Birds

So a new year is now here and with a new year come changes. One change I am going to attempt to make is to keep this journal a bit more updated as there are probably about 3 people who check this thing after not seeing a new post for 3 months but non-the-less I will write. I have been back in Uganda after visiting home for a few weeks for a wedding and seeing family and friends. It was a great visit and one that I am glad I made but I am also glad to be back in Uganda. Except for one small thing, my home has two glass windows which are made of a glass so that from the outside it seems as if you are viewing a mirror and not a window. At 1st I thought it would be nice in helping provide me with some privacy but I’m not so sure whether I like them any more. For the past 2 maybe 3 months I have a these birds which look like sparrows visiting in the morning to check themselves in the window and then proceed to fight their reflection creating a very annoying pecking noise. This normally occurs between 6:30 and 7:00 so most mornings I am awake but if I am not awake at that point there is now no chance of continuing to sleep. I was hoping that during my 3 weeks away they would have found a new morning hangout but my first morning back I was greeted by the birds. So there is no sleeping in at my house which is a good thing I guess but if I can every figure out away to get rid of those birds you can be sure I will do it. Anyways it is good to be back and get back into the normal routine and hopefully that will include a few journal entries. Thanks for patience and care for me.
