pergola pictures/squirl questions

Oh, what a beautiful yard and pergola. I'm green with envy.
Your yard looks like it is several acres.
Does anyone have gardening advice about squirls-that doesn't look right, maybe my spelling is off since the coffee hasn't kicked in. I babied some sunflower seeds and followed all the planting advice, then put them in the yard last week and the squirls ate the tops off of them! I have about 2 doz. more to plant but don't want to just keep feeding the long-tail rats. I though about a cage of wire over them, but don't have one. Maybe a trip to wally-world would reveal something.
I need to vent--scroll by if you don't want to read--
Yesterday morning DH and I went to the emergency room instead of church. He hurt his thumb about 4 weeks ago, and it hasn't gotten better. He was sure it was broken and wanted X-rays. After 2 hrs. in ER the Dr. said it wasn't broken but a bad sprain. Sent us to the drug store for a thumb brace.
Now DH thinks he wants to sell everything and move to a condo at the beach. We did go look at two. About the size of my current bedroom.
I think the guy is having a second mid-life crisis! I thought we were only allowed one per lifetime. Augh! And on top of that 38 yr. old DD and DSIL are going off the deep end. Too personal to go into here. I think the whole world has lost it's mind.
I had surgery on the face on Fri. for the skin cancer. It went OK. Last night I must has slept on that side, as I'm all swollen up now and look like the looser in a boxing match.
Going to go for a long walk and clear my brain.
