She had seen me on 12/29 and hearing me now and knowing I was on a different antibotic earlier Dec. So I will take her advice and call dr. Mon. set up appt. grrrrrr

Hope we hear from Nilla soon as to the outcome at the hospital with her daughter.

I read the DaVinci Code & I thoroughly enjoyed it. Have you seen the movie - not me yet. I think I have it on a DVD from my grandson.
Also read Angels & Demons by Dan Brown. Loved it too. I am Catholic & I didn't take any offense to his content-I enjoyed it as a good mystery.

Eagle at Kent dismisses all my fears that they were lost in the storm
Thank You Mits

Thermals is right!!! But this time of year we should be talking about wearing thermals not the eagles riding them! LOL - but not LOL - saw comments about this warm weather being caused by el nino, yes that's true, but what is causing us to have so many el nino influenced winters in recent years?? Global warming? I saw a video clip of a HUGE ice shelf fracturing off of an iceburg - it happend in a matter of two hours or less instead of the decades that it normally happens... El Nino or not, we've got serious environmental concerns on our hands... I hope my children and their children can enjoy the beauty of the nature we've enjoyed...

OK - now with the serious bummer comments over, I'm going out to enjoy this beautiful weather for the day... can't change what is here now, so better go enjoy it :) And what's the old adage - if you don't like the weather - stick around and it's bound to change - something like that :)

Have a wonderful eagle day everyone - live feed wasn't working for me this morning and of course no live feed of Buta - I agree that she'll be chasing Lun around the dens by the time we see her on Monday!

Mits - I have all windows opened that are possible to open! Not only ski slopes, but the Electric Co who is going to start increasing rates should hate this kind of weather in January.
I love it!

Great to hear from you Belle & I think you have the right idea

Mits Be sure to read Nilla's comment on other thread concerning daughter in hospital.

MITS said...

I'm a firm believer in weather patterns,how old is earth??? How many of this "global warming" patterns has it endured in its billion plus years. Two years from now we could be in the "la nina" pattern and be dumped with snow. I'll take a 70° day in January anytime.

Back from my errands. Glad to know someone saw Eagle at kent. Of course for me i want to know BOTH were seen there. Also glad FL is back up...got a couple of neat items from those eagles yesterday...they are on this morning's BLITZ. Think I am going to take a short trip down to the Marina. About 40 here but bright and sunny. I will wear my coat as always a little breezy by the river. Prayers for all in need continue. Anxious to hear from Nilla. About to try to call Sharon.

Norma Sometimes I think the cams shift to different yards without our knowing! In order for me to even think I am looking at TianTian, I do need the other cam to prove to me that Mei & Tai are on it at the same time.

I need to make a list of some of the books you are mentioning. But like Norma, I will put my books aside in order to watch the cams.

Yes, Norma, the pic that Lisa put up is beautiful.Who knows how close the eagles actually are while we are waiting for them to appear. Dana, you should not be out and about, what we have may not be contagious, but, it sure can zap your strength.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Hello to all my precious eagle buddies. Just wanted to let everybody know how very much I appreciate all your love, support and prayers. It means so very much to me. I am just overwhelmed by the friends I have gotten just because I was sent a link to watch 3 eggs hatch. God is so good. My family and I are doing okay, just taking that next breath and trying to get through this the best we can.

Again, thanks so much to everybody. I love you!

Hi All,

Popping in to say hello, and wish all of you a Happy New Year.

I want to say a big thank you to Mema Jo for kepping me uptodate with all the sad news, and so I can pas it all on to my girls over here.

I have read some of the posts and have noticed that Janet's daughter
Dawn Marie is in ICU, please tell me what is wrong,, I seem to be so out of date with all the very most recent news ????
So sorry to be so far behind, it's so hard to keep up sometimes as I'm sure you can understand with the time difference, its not that we dont have the time to pop in it's just that by the time we logg on over here, with kids and other family ties, TIME really isn't on our side.
We do keep you all in our thoughts everyday, even though we can't get on to chat as much as we would love to.

Well I hope thats explained a little and you forgive us for not being able to chat everyday.

Love to you our friends
Chrissy

One more thing before I leave...
Nilla update

They did an ultrasound on Dawn.
Looks like gall bladder
(Bless you Jim) She was sitting with Dawn in ICU but about to leave and return later. She will call this evening. No surgery would be done until Monday she is guessing.

Hi there Friend across the pond!

Thanks, Glo BBL

Prayers for Dawn Marie - the drama just doesn't want to let up for the bunch... I hope the gall bladder findings are good news - surely seems good to at least have a report on something that sounds 'fixable' to me... Nilla, you better be getting some rest there too - Dr. Jim? Did I miss something?

belle_wv said...

well yes I missed our eagles flying off while I was posting... will they return? MTBR

Anonymous said...

Dr Jim Diagnosed it as possible gall bladder when he first read about it last night .

Thanks Glo - I haven't had time to read back through yesterday's blog... I sure hope all is going to be ok. Dana did you make dr. appt? Pneumonia is not going to go away on its own...

so does blackwater keep their cam lighted all night, its kind of looking that way right now

Anonymous said...

well of course i will be able to answer that question myself at some point tonight LOL. I actually meant do they leave a light on the nest all night. That's gonna be cool once there are eggs there. Although I think I read where this is a young pair and they may not successfully breed this year. OK MTBR LOL.

testing testing 3 2 1

Yes, Glo it is like that all night.

Thanks Mits I never watched blackwater last year at all. I wonder if the light will bother the eagles. is this the sam cam and nest as last year, even same pair or are these different birds and location of nest, do you know?

Hi Gang just home from hospitol for afew, so here is what i know and its not alot as of yet..... Dawn is in alot of pain and all they give her is tylnol for pain (were giving her morphine)nurse said they didnt want to inflame gall bladder any more if thats what it is.. Ultra sound done doctor has not been in yet.. When surgon comes in will know something as to when surgery will take place... I will be working her hours at the store day time...

Love to you Nilla - hope Dawn Marie is resting more comfortably and then when you get home please get some rest for yourself!

Wow, so much news, good and bad, such is life. Glad to see Sharon checked in, and also her sister Beverly, such a difficult time for them right now. Keeping them and their family in my thoughts. Hope Dawn will be feeling better soon, Nilla, hoping the Drs. figure out what is wrong and how to fix it. Glad to see the UK gals checking in also. Hope everyone else who has been sick is feeling better. Belle, I love your new pic, need to change mine also, but it's such a hassle, keep putting it off.

Anonymous said...

Hey Glo, the nest at BW is the same one they had the cam on last year, they think it is a different pair of eagles in it now, though. The cam doesn't bother them at all at night, it's night vision technology, doesn't shine a light on them or the nest. Wow, if Jim's gall bladder diagnosis turns out to be right,we may have to award him an honorary stethescope.

MITS said...

Love the penquins, Belle,.....keep the wreath, Megan, its very wintery looking,

Thanks for that info floralgirl Could be kind of fun to watch too I was kind of surprised when I saw that light come on.

Oh, I can't wait to see babies at any and all of the nests, Glo. BW was the first eagle cam I watched,found it by accident, and have been hooked on these wildlife cams ever since.

movin said...

God bless you and protect you, Dawn Marie and Nilla...

Glad to hear they are narrowing in on the cause, and it isn't too serious (compared to some other things).

I came home with some disease myself last night, got a little fever and the chills. So I crashed early and got up late...I feel quite a bit better now.

Anybody ever heard of ham and scalloped potatoes?? My sister's family got a "pepper ham" from a parent for Christmas, but they don't like it much...I got at least half of it.

Had a brainstorm the other day...we used to have ham and ... fairly often when I was a youngster, and I've made it Mom's way at least once, and I always liked it, and I have all this pepper ham, ssooooo, that's what I'm cooking this evening. It should be smelling gooood pretty soon.

Stuff like that...casseroles and stews, etc., are always better on a cold winter eve too, which is what we are in for this evening.

Well, I sure hope all goes well for the members, who are not feeling too well, or are getting better, and we will see some happy faces on the blog soon. {/:=)}

Jim

Anonymous said...

Mmmm... That sounds good, Jim, I used to have scalloped potatoes a lot when I was a kid. You are having a cold winters nite, we are having a warm spring like evening here, 57 degrees out right now. Crazy weather. Hope you feel better soon.

movin said...

Yeah, Floral Girl, and they're having huge snow storms in Denver..and I guess farther east..haven't heard from the relatives in Minn and Iowa yet.

We had some people killed by the Santa Ana winds yesterday..they kicked up a big, zero-visibility sand storm, which resulted in some deaths from traffic accidents.

Boy, "the wet-dry-wet-dry....thing" really raises havoc with peoples sinuses and respiratory systems.

Enjoy that unseasonal warmth, the snow storms might be heading in that direction.

Happy blogging,
Jim

movin said...

I was just rereading Paula's comment about the eggs in the nest in 5-6 weeks, and I am wondering if she meant "eggs" or maybe chicks. If my math is right, we might be seeing eggs in the nest before too long now.

What do you think?

Jim

Jim, I made Ham and scalloped taters this week, just finished the last of it last night...

Sorry to hear that, Jim, mother nature is a powerful, often unpredictable force. The snows in Denver are unbelievable, bad avalanche there today. You are probably right, the cold will be here soon enough, have been taking full advantage of the warm weather here lately, cleaning up the gardens for spring. Enjoy your dinner.

Think I was saying the Ham and Scalloped potatoes came out really good, although I had to substitute canned milk for regular.

Paula is probably right, my math and my assumptions are shaky about the eggs-chicks.
