We had some house wrens building a nest up in our patio this past week.  We knocked down the beginnings of the nest last weekend (because it's just outside our back door and the bird poop doesn't seem like a good idea given my current situation).  The birds ignored us and rebuilt.

Yesterday one of the wrens sat and chuffed at Dan as he got rid of this second effort.  It feels mean in a way, to deny these birds this place...but we've got a nest out front already with little ones ready to test the air.  And health concerns come first these days.

Which leads to the Sunday Question:  We read and hear a lot about "boundaries" in today's self-help literature.  What does it mean to you to have healthy boundaries?
