Glad to hear she is out of surgery, Margie, and that it went well.
Good news, Margy. Hope you get to talk to your sister later.
I lived in New England for years, the accent is interesting to say the least. Paak the caar
Great news, Margy. Hope you'll be able to talk to Dorset herself later this evening.
Ceil, how long has MM's husband been gone? Yep, those Mass accents can be a hoot!
Andy, hope the car is running right now.
I agree with Jo---clean carpet AFTER visit!!
Haven't been to get sugar yet. Donald didn't get here til 2:30 and must leave at 4:30, so not too much getting done today, but said he'll be back late afternoons next week. Chimney cleaned but it really wasn't bad at all---but better safe than sorry. Dead trees down, so don't need to worry about them falling.
GOOD AFTERNOON, MOMSTERS & DADSTERS...
It is now one week before our Open House gathering.
Everything has come together very nicely, after a few hitches here and there.
I went to the Clarion Inn this morning and reserved our Party Room. It is ours to do with as we please (within reason). It is a pretty room with beautiful chandeliers. We may want to wear gowns and tux...(Kidding)
There is plenty of room to display our Raffle Prizes which are all exceptional. We have a carved wooden eagle, donated by Jo...A year's subscription to Birds and Bloom Magazine, donated by Margy...An Eagle throw, donated by Suz...A coin with an eagle on it and a T-Shirt, donated by Helen (Mits),...A wooden Nativity music box, made by Jack Ellis and donated by Lolly...A stepping stone with an eagle impressed in it, donated by Paula...A framed eagle picture and eagle checkbook cover, donated by Lynn-Hedgie...A calendar filled with photos of all our favorite things from this past year, donated by Wanda...Iris has made a donation or two, but has not revealed what they are yet. She said it is something really LARGE. You will have to come to dinner to find out what it is. Ceil and others have donated some Door Prizes, also. It is going to be a really fun day, and an even better evening. It's not too late to join us...you won't have this chance again for another YEAR!
Please call anyone of us on the entertainment committee if you are not signed up, but wish to attend. Monday will be the latest day to change your mind. We will meet in Suite C for dinner, beginning at 4:30pm.
Hope to see you there!
Wanda

(I have posted photos of our party room on my JUST FOR FUN BLOG
Friday evening dinner (16th) is in the Rumsey Tavern at 7pm.
Wish Sissy would let us know how she's doing.......maybe she'll check in now that the game is over.
Steamed shrimp sounds wonderful, Ceil. Mine are some frozen, packaged breaded ones. But I am enjoying them.
Will is somewhere in Maryland with a friend today. The friend is doing some kind of performance--martial arts, I think.
Heading out to get the sugar for our pizzelles!!! BBIAF.
Know I've missed a bunch of comments.
Happy Dorset's surgery went well. Now for a speedy recovery.
Margie, thanks for the update on Ed and Dana. I just think something isn't quite right. Maybe some feelings of being "down" with all the medical issues?
Have 75 of 100 responses commented on and grades recorded. Had to stop. Brain is over-tired. Will finish the last ones tomorrow.
I see it's time, again, for my expedition to the frig. Hope I find something good -- sad but don't have shrimp.
Judie, you are reading essay answers from all of those students? That is quite a task. I brought home a few things to grade and need to write a quiz and think about what I will have the sub do on Tuesday.
Biggest thing I need to do is finish up most of the assignments on the list for the classes I am taking. I have always tried to stay on top of those.
The assignments for one class run Friday-Thursday, so you have the weekend to work on them. I think the other one will be similar. They are posted on Blacboard.
Hi, Everyone,
Just zoomed in from the backyard with a question for all of you, but maybe MEGAN can answer best:
I have THRIPS (UGH) in my roses, and got some Bayer 2 in 1 Systemic Rose & Flower Care from Home Depot to zap the critters. Now that I read the label, it says its EXTREMELY TOXIC TO BIRDS! Do you know whether hummingbirds ever sip from rose flowers? I've never NOTICED mine doing that, but sure DON'T want to take any chances. Not with my little cuties! I'd feel just HORRIBLE if I caused them any harm!
MARGY, glad to hear good news about Dorset!!!! Thank GOD!!! Hope you get to talk to her later! :o]
You guys, the car once again runs like a top!!! Thank GOD for that one, too!
Hahahaha...I know Sierra's only 3, and may spill stuff, but the carpet is SOOOOOOO BAD, the only other option is to set a match to it! (Who was crazy enough to get light beige carpet? Who, ME?!!--NEVER AGAIN!!) Aha--lunch is ready. Back later with an update!
:o]
Great news to hear about Dorset, Margy
Getting a very late 3:00 cup of coffee.
No Mass for me today - trying to stay away from crowds beginning of this week. Family crowds and Friend crowds don't count.
Ooooooh, Ceil!
Steamed shrimp?! You've got me drooling all over myself! I'm SO jealous!!! Oh, well...back to yard and housework! (Look out, I'm dangerous on caffeine!)
In Bluefield hanging out with my peeps. Haven't seen Andrew yet but will in a little while. Hope all are having a great day!
Margy, keep us posted on Dorset.
Andrea, so happy to learn you have your car back in good condition.
Really must go take book to library. Too bad Kathryn didn't just let me hand it over to her and renew it on my own account. Think I will leave most of my other errands for tomorrow.
I have to have one day a week just to hang out.
Wanda thought the chandalier was lower. After a few drinks was going to swing from it. Only kidding.
Lynn MM was only married a year when her husband died. He was older than her and had a heart attack. The day of their first anniversary he was in the hospital and she was having a miscarriage. 4 days later he died. Nice man.
Sissy is doing okay. Still hurting in her knee and ankle but she is cooking us supper. I am going to a meeting and then back here to eat and then head back to Bedford. Long day!
Lynn, your mention of dead trees reminds me that I need to report one huge pine tree that is leaning over the road I take to work every day. It looks like it could fall at any time. Would take out a power line and land on the road.
I am not sure who to call, but should be able to find out.
Very sad about MM's husband, Ceil.
I want to see you swing from the chandelier! Well, maybe not. . .
Must go to library! BBL
Andrea, hummers will go to almost any flower in your garden. The stuff you bought is very toxic and just plain nasty. You can use insecticidal soap or a spray with Spinosad or neem oil to control them. The first two are the best, but Spinosad can be harmful to bees so alwyas spray in the early am, or evening. Ladybugs and lacewings are good beneficial bugs that eat them.
Planet Natural and Gardens Alive are great mail order sources for organic controls in your garden. Both have informative websites.
Oh, how sad for MM to lose her husband and baby at the same time. That must have taken a long time to get over...probably never did, fully! Bless her heart.
Hey Ceil, don't worry, we'll pile up some tables for you so you can reach the chandelier.
Gosh, that is heartbreaking about MM:(
Thanks for posting that, Wanda. When I was there for a buffet dinner, the spread was in the hallway outside of the salons. You are right---it really IS a long walk from the front entrance, so it would be best if we can gain entry through those other doors.
That is very sad for MM to have to go through so much sadness at once.
Megan, THANK YOU!!! I will use some insecticidal soap and see how that works. Will check out the websites, too. That yucky stuff is going back to Home Depot! Will mention to them that they should warn people how toxic the stuff is to wildlife, BEFORE they purchase it! Surely they have some kind of GREEN concoction they can sell instead!
Wow, mega prayers for MM! Can't even imagine what she's been through. Don't think it's likely that she'll ever quite get over it--but they say that whatever doesn't do you in, makes you stronger. Hope that's true. Faith can certainly get you through a lot, I'm sure of that.
Thanks for the pics of our Party Room for Saturday, Wanda.
Great that you will tell us where to park for the evening.
Where will the Eagle Express be parked that morning at 10am? Same as usual -right out front!
Do we still have the Eaglet Momster sign for above out Party Room "C".
Paula may have that one.
Boy, sounds like Shirley and Judie are turbo-charged today! Hope you both can find time to just relax a bit! Who ever said that teachers have it easy?! Sure wasn't me!!
Well I love MM - I know she had 2 sisters that helped her through all her troubles! She is the most thoughtful person I have recently met!
She is truly blessed and has blessed all of us who know her.
AND I WISHED SHE WOULD GET A LAPTOP FOR CHRISTMAS
DID YOU HEAR ME, SANTA CLAUS ?
Should be hearing from Anne Marie and Lolly soon! Hope AM isn't still up in the air on a plane and that Lolly,Jack and Jacob aren't still up in the air
in the hot air balloon........
I haven't seen or heard of any
unidentified flying objects.... lol
I am waiting on hubby to return from Mass in order to grill some hamburgers.
Sometimes I just like good ole' American food!
Where is everyone?
I am going over to facebook and find you...... Bet I find Sissy!
BBILW
I'm still here, Jo, but not for long--gotta make hay while the sun shines! Have some more trimming and deadheading to do in the back yard. Need to try to fix a clogged sprinkler head, too. Then gotta do some cleaning up and makeup damage control and go meet sister-in-law. Busy weekend, but sure worth it! Will BBIALW to check in. :o]
Oh, Ceil--and Mits, too---so sorry to hear that MM's loss was so tragic. Had no idea that she had been alone for so long. Please give her extra hugs if you see her before we do Fri.!!!
Jo, A-M posted on FB yesterday!! Home safe and sound---and I think TIRED!
Good News! Diann just opened my greeting card so she is at her computer. I don't know which shoulder it was but at least we know she is
mobile! Thank Goodness
Sounds pretty cool that Deb was able to split up her shift. Makes it a little more bearable working weekend and hours that she doesn't like.
I knew I would find Sissy---
I am sore as heck this morning but not as bad I thought I would be. My knee is not great, but it will heal.
It is good that Deb does live within a walkable distance to her work. Great to split up that work day. I sure wish she was able to come to Open House. :>(
Yep, Jo, Diann opened mine on Thurs. Good sign!!!
Dana still hasn't opened hers.
Oh, Margy-----have you figured out the converter yet???
Lynn I just saw AM comment on FB.
I have been waiting for her to tell me to turn her E_M mail back on.
It surely was a nice visit we had with her and brother Bill and wife Sandy!
Burgers are coming off the grill
BBL
Hi Everyone----finally got done working this week! And a crab truck was down the road, so you know what I'll be doing soon!
A belated Happy Birthday to NORMA!
Margy, prayers for your sister.
We were really busy w/a fall Kid's program today. I was assigned cutting triangles and half moons out of adhesive backed felt for pumpkin decorations. Kid's also had option of magic markers!I only did that 1/2 day & then babysat office where tons of people called to ask if it was raining---NO, or how to get there or where is a hiking trail in Laurel!!!!! They estimated close to 300 people!
Gonna go crack some crabs~~~~~
Beautiful sunset of pink colors to my west. Hope that means tomorrow will be another beautiful weather day!
I don't mind the nip in the air!
Hi Loretta! Enjoy your crabs!
You've had a very busy day - I take it you would rather do faces on Jack-o-lanterns then face the phone lines!
We had beautiful colors West AND East here also Jo... fun to be looking and seeing the same things...from different places. ☺
Loretta...sounds like a fun day...especially for the kids.
Grandson scarfed up a crab-cracking mallet at Goodwill the other day! Now we just need some crabs to go with it ☺
Good Evening Everyone... xo ♥
I am prepared to provide a prize for whoever discovers whenever/if we get a new thread ☺
Lynn -
didn't try the converter box routine yet, did not want to stray from the house, might go check out neighbor lady's a little later on, that should be all I need to do, I think, maybe.
I called the hospital, Cooley Dickinson in Northhampton, Mass, and the nurse at nurse's station put me through to my sister...
She was pretty groggy, but awake enough to tell me, that she kept falling asleep while trying to read the instructions for the Spirometer or whatever that little tube with the ball in it that you have to blow into. I told her to forget the machine and go back to sleep for now ! But her son confirmed that only the ruptured appendix and some of the associated fluids and things needed to be removed, NO intestine involvement, no other problems.
She has some recovery time ahead of her, not sure how big of an incision they had to make, will get those details in the morning when she is more able to talk.
Her daughter was expected for a visit, (she has the two kids, and two grandchildren) so maybe I will get a call later from her.
I am one thankful sister, Praise the Lord. xo
And I hope you all don't mind my repeating often, Thank You for all your prayers, inquiries, comfort, and encouragement.
xo ♥
On the PIX PA woods it looks like a new block of food (not sure if it's a salt lick or something else)
I would have tried to stay on the phone longer earlier, when I called Dana's and spoke with Ed, but I was trying to keep phone time rather short...
I do believe there is no doubt in her mind that we are with her in prayer. I wish I had asked if she knew yet about Open House or Dinners...
It would have been fun to watch and see that block get delivered.
I wonder what time the Feed Toss will be tonight....I can't keep the cam up continuously..does anyone else have a problem with computer freeze with that ?
last night Megan reported at 7:31 pm that it had just gone off.
Margy, Dana knows about the Clarion for the dinners - She was hesitant & wouldn't be able to make a decision until last minute as to how Ed was doing. I pray her eye is doing better and that her health is holding up.
Yes, they are definitely in Momster prayers.
Like you said - we have not turn our clocks and I really don't think other states have already done so.
Don't know why the times seems to be off. There night light is on
I bet our nest's light is on also!!!
:<(
My grammar is becoming sloppy
I need a break .. No TV shows to waste my time on this evening.
I need to pull an Andy/Margy and pick up around here if family is streaming in tomorrow.
I have the PA woods up and volume is full blast. If I hear it I'll yell
THERE IT GOES
And thar she blows!
One lone raccoon skeedaddled out of the way, seemed real tentative about the new white thing too...
Okay, I can get some stuff done now.
☺
FUNNY 7:31 again for Feeder
Fat little rascal has the whole place to himself and seems to be enjoying it.
Thanks Megan for your Hot Tip last night !
I can understand about Dana..not being able to say yay or nay about next week-end....I will try to call her again Sunday, let me find out when the Steelers play if they do, and work around that ! ☺
Okay TTFN, going to try to pick back up where I left off before my nap and phone calls. xoxo
Jo, I said last night that I bet he reset timer because of getting dark earlier or else battery died and he forgot to reset it when he replaced the battery!
donald worked onm mine again today, but no luck---definitely a bad timer: as in, it won't work at all!! With my smart flicker gone, no one spins the spinner, unless I walk out there and do it---takes a lot of spins to put out much corn!!!
I bet A-M forgot that her momster mail is off!!!
Margy, so glad to hear that Doreset is doing well. What relief you must be feeling!!
Just took my pork out of freezer....if anyone would like my "recipe":
works with loin roast, thick chops or country-style ribs!
Put meat in bottom of roaster. Season w/ garlic salt and seasoned pepper to taste. Cover with thick-sliced onion.
Top w/ sauerkraut. Sprinkle a little brown sugar on top. Bake covered at 350:
1 hr. for chops, 90 min. for ribs, 2 hrs. for roast. Enjoy!!
Oh Lynn..stop it !! That sounds too delicious. And I can just imagine the aroma filling the household. That would have worked nicely with my thick pork chops last night...maybe next time.
Let me know what time dinner will be ready ☺ Just kidding....
xo
Yes, relieved, grateful....regarding Dorset...
Now, for the recovery, could be a challenge with the New England winter approaching, but things will work out.
xo
Wonder how Judie is coming along with her essays....well, it is still "Friday" so she has some extra time to do it ☺
Well, ok, but I do not like sauerkraut. I will coat the pork loin witha paste made of minced garlic, fresh rosemary and olive oil, and refrigerate it for several hours, then roast it at 350° with 1/4 cup of wine or chicken broth in the pan. and probably potaotes.
Hi all! I have a few minutes to get on and say hi! We are calling this trip a HUGE success and starting home tomorrow. We went Thursday and saw the special shape balloons. Great fun! We went back Thursday night and saw the special shapes "glowdeo". All the special shapes inflate on the ground and glow! More fun! Jacob collected approx. 20 cards from different balloons and pilots. His favorite was Darth Vader!
It was 33 this morning, but warmed up to a beautiful day. Jacob does not want to go home, but he will get excited to see his parents and Joseph.
Have not read through the blog, but have been wondering about Mits newest granchild. Has he arrived?
Anyway, we have also been to the Sante Fe Children's museum twice and the Albuquerque "Explora" once. Jacob has been thoroughly spoiled!
I turned Momster email on for AM....
Something is at the snowman cam but it is too dark to tell what it is.. Not the bear I don't think - too small but is dark black....
Awesome Lolly!
Bet you are getting some wonderful pictures....
Megan, you can stop that too....sounds deliriously delicious...
The cam folks were panning the camera up into the trees a short while before the feed toss...wonder if they saw something Mema Jo....
Hello Lolly! SOunds like you've had a great time!! No grandbaby yet for HElen.
HI LOLLY ! So great to hear from you! Thought the 3 of you were still floating up in a hot air balloon. lol
No new grandbaby yet for Mits-Annie has DR appointment Monday and the 19th is induce day if Benjamin isn't here yet. Take care and safe journey home
Yep! Have some fantastic pictures.
Gotta go. Jack is back at the trailer with Jacob. I came over to just get on here.
Back with you in a few days!
Bye!
Margy I was referring to SNOWMAN Cam
as to something dark lying down where the bear usually is but it looks too small.
Their blogs on Snowman and/or Pa woods don't give you a clue in their chatting as to what they are seeing..
Geez, sorry Jo, I thought you were talking about the Pix cam...re-read now you meant Snowman cam - maybe it is the porcupine
I'll get with the program one of these days...
Bye Bye Lolly, that was Short and Sweeeeeeeet
Grandson in SC was hoping to see an armadillo or two there, there not really part of the environs, but have made a presence in recent years
Good evening all! Got back from my journey out into the world. I was too late to return the book. The library was closed already. I think they have started closing early on Saturday nights. I dropped the book into the return box, but now it will be late. Oh well, they charge 10 cents a day. I can handle that. Would give them a bit more if it would keep them open on Saturday night.
Here is part of my blog class assignment:
Look at a some blogs. Take some time to explore them and you may even want to post a reply, but be careful, blogs can be addictive!
Addictive? Really? I think I have done the "post a reply" part already!
Hi Lolly! Good to see you back.
Yes, do be careful....you may get addicted.
Edgar Allan Poe's funeral
Two hundred years after his birth, the celebrated 19th-century writer is to get a proper funeral on Sunday.
Links to articles of funeral
Margy, dinner will be at 5:30--- come!!!
Megan, yours sounds yummy, too!!! can't imagine not liking kraut!!!
Judie gave up on essay grading for the day---still has 25 left to do, poor gal.
Good to see you on, Lolly! Sounds like a trip to remember for all of you, but especially for Jacob. Travel safe. Let us know when you get home.
Margy, didn't know that armadillos had migrated up to SC!!! Learn something new everyday...they were all over the golf course in FL that my aunt and uncle played, and mom had one living under her patio slab that had to be removed professionally!
Kind of looks like the porcupine at the snowman cam.
Maybe that is a small bear on Snowman I think Shirley saw something similar the other night and made a remark about it.
Snowman bloggers are asking the same thing we are - what animal is that.
I don't really know if porcupines have tales. Better google that one.
They are saying raccoon
Well, here I am again.
I think it might be a baby bear at Snowman. Keep seeing a small dark critter too big for a bird or squirrel. Climbing a tree and sitting near the bird feeder.
Too much to catch up tonight. Brain is fried. So, turning my light off but leaving the night light on for others. Will be back tomorrow. Prayers for everyone in need. G'night all and sleep well.
Judie
I am pretty sure porcupines have tails, but I am not sure it is a porcupine. It could be a raccoon for all I know.
Good night, Judie.
Porcupines do have tails....
Guess that is Porky........
REST WELL JUDIE
Porcupines do climb trees.
Don't think it is the baby bear because it has too much tail........
Where is CRUNCH - he'll tell us.....
I did see the grey fox the other week at the Okie Bird feeder when crunch mentioned it.
Shirley did you see the article about
POE's FUNERAL........
Yeah that is what I was thinking, too. Bears don't have that much tail.
Haven't seen the article yet, Jo. Where is it? I had heard about the funeral on the radio the other morning.
I just caught a glimpse of the critter before the car scared him away...it looked like a coon.
Yes, it was Crunch who first identified Porky.
Did you ladies see our PARTY ROOM on my blog? It's roomy enough for 50 or 60. I hope they give us tables, I hate to eat, sitting in a chair!
Are you talking about up in the tree? Looks like a coon to me.
BTW, Margy----Steelers play at 1 tomorrow.
Night, Judie! Sleep tight---don't dream of essays!
Shirley the link to funeral is up around 9:00 comment from me.
room looks great Wanda....went to mass and then P.F. Changs for dinner...it was good...off to rest just in case there are any phone calls during the night..good night everyone...prayers for all in need.
This is cute:
Baby Porcupine
I really think what we were seeing looks more like a raccoon. Porcupines look more "bristly."
Wanda - I hope they have Lap Tables if we need to sit up straight! lol
Great photos. That side door will be great for parking near by.. I know you will block open that door for us!
That little feller was a cutie.
Night Mits.
Well since it was too dark to see it there were any rings on the tail or quills on the back.... I guess we still don't know for sure.
Both raccoons and porcupines climb trees. Only the tail knows........
LOL -
Wanda, I saw the room, and wondered who we would all be watching sitting in those chairs , figured it would be Ceil swinging from the chandeliers.
Good Night, Mits, hope for a good night's rest and phone calls Sunday ☺
I need a short break........
Hotmail down again so I need to sign off and back in........
BBILW
Thanks for the link to the articles, Jo. I had read over your post earlier.
I'll see if the Scooter Store will give me a couple on loan just in case... ☺
Golly, going through spare bedroom aka storage bin, reconnecting with many lovely things, including the world's largest collection of empty boxes !!! what am I planning to do with all of them? maybe make a fortune on ebay and use the boxes for shipping ???
this is ridiculous !
I can't get into E-M program at all....
endless hourglass
Margy Scooters are available to be used from NCTC.. however one that we saw parked had a flat tire.
You could email Kelly and see if they will hold one (really need more than one) at the admin bldg.
Are you thinking of Sissy? or Iris?
or Judie? or me? or Sandra?
By golly we need a whole fleet
Two little critters at Snowman, now.
I want a scooter- and I don't want the flat tire one.lol....
Scooter with a flat tire, that is definitely unfriendly.
lol
Let's see, no live cam, no still cam, and one scooter with a flat tire...what's the deal ?
Actually I would like a mini bike, do they offer those?
Goodnight, Mits......hoping for a call in the middle of the night! Know you are on pins and needles.
Don't forget, they have the shuttlebusses Sat.!!! Otherwise, I would sure need a scooter, too!
Cute video, Shirley!! Cute porky for sure...but when he bends his head down so that all you see if "hair"--he looks like Don King!!
Megan, my butterfly weed plant is filling up with Pods ! ☺
How about roller skates?
Also, my "Warm Megan" mum plant is very beautiful, as is the big yellow mum, looks like a sunburst !
Some of ours have those too, Margy. Many of ours are still blooming, some have been so eaten by caterpillars all that is left is the stems.
Oh, yeah, I'll take roller skates, but real ones, not those darn rollerblades. When I was a kid,I had my own skates, I love to skate.
Hey Wanda...not to worry, we are kidding...!
we could just have the Eagle Express make shuttles to and fro ☺
A Talon here, a talon there, that should take care of everything.
Appreciate all you are doing! It will be Greeeeeeatt
BTW---contract for the room says 4 tables of 10.
While I am thinking about it, Kathryn and Susan did ask me to find out about appropriate attire for dinner.
Casual is appropriate.
I live in the "city," not too many caterpillars, and not too many stink bugs either! The plants are tall and spindly, but holding up well! Yellow Rules !
Guess I better get back to managing my empty box collection
Good Night to any early roosters, will catch up with the night owls in a little while.
Time to check on sister by way of the nurses too...see how her night is going.
TTFN xo ☺
Hey Margy, just let me know if you want some stink bugs!
Evening all. I have been told that their will be tables for us on Saturday but I have been told a lot that was not right. Going to call it a night and hope their is a call during the night that Helen and Jay are on their way to Baltimore.
Pleasant dreams.
Thanks. That is what I had told them.
I always skated, too, Megan, both sidewalk and rink...too afraid to try anymore with the osteoporosis and being a klutz! Would love to try a Segway someday, tho', but also too dangerous.
I am home. The OT hours aren't that bad, just hate the thought that they can make you work more than you want. Some of the people have families and go to school and it is a real hardship for them. Next week I will be able to get all the hours in without working an extra day, that will be nice.
My stink bugs are getting really cold
and trying their best to get in.
Aren't as many as there were a week ago.. probably in behind all my pictures and curtain and maybe even in my cupboards.......
I spent many a Saturday at the skating rink when I was in high school. Took my children skating when they were little. The rusult--Kathryn met her husband at a skating rink.
I am afraid I don't skate anymore. Did not really do much skating when the kids were little, even. With four children, I could not afford to break any bones.
Guess they are raccoons, Shirley.
I don't think that porcupines travel in pairs...... LOL
The shuttle buses at NCTC open house are great! They get you where you want to go.
Not too much walking - guess I might bring my eagle cane!
Deb - I am glad to see you are home from you day of mandatory work. I know the feeling about having to be told you HAD to work.... Business must be booming!
I zoomed in on them, and am wondering what is back there near the trees in the background. I don't think you can see them until you zoom in.
I am getting really tired. Think I need to call it a night. Will came home. He said he was at Fed Ex Field for a huge martial arts competition.
Every time the critters move around on Snowman they look like a different animal... I give!
I don't know what they are, either, Jo.
Deb
I hope you will be home to watch the Twins Sunday, remember the word "Win " is part of Twins...think positive.
Glad you are back at YOUR Roost.
xoxo
They really disappear fast
No, Jo. Unfortunately, the company I work for is not treating people very fairly in my opinion and lots of long time employees are leaving, we are way short handed right now. I am looking, not too impressed with company or with the leaders in the building.
lol Memories! I can remember the skating skirt and top my mom sewed for me. I thought I was something else at the rink.....
I work until 7:30 tomorrow, Margie. They will be playing at home, so that should help!
A change will be good, Deb.
You'll get where you belong in due time!
Any communication with Janie recently.
That's Un-American, Deb....sorry to hear of it...and hope you find something really great out there for you in your searching.
Sister is tucked in for the night and more or less sleeping. Nurse very friendly, that is comforting.
No, I haven't heard anything from her since she left. She is so busy, only hear when she has down time.
Sound good Margy
You will sleep well also.......
I am off to bed, night everyone!
Glad to hear your sister is sleeping, Margy. I'm sure they will take good care of her.
Hang in there, Deb, hopefully you'll find something else.
Gonna head to bed, tired and hubby is hogging the tv with college football...borng... nite all:)
Jo
I am sure you WERE something else!
You still are....
Gonna run out the door and get some milk, feel it is safe to be away from the phones for a few.
Maybe tomorrow I will get converter box hooked up so I can hoot and holler for the Twins
TTFN xo
I actually found a stupid stink bug INSIDE the chimney clean-out; don't think it could have gotten in from the outside---it must have come down the flue!!
Little late but Night Deb & Megan
Just milk, Margy
No oatmeal pies.......
I slept well last evening. Thought all the steroids would keep me awake but they didn't. Arms aren't sore where I got the shots.
Wow, what a chatty group!
Back from trip to Mom's, got a lot done. Trying to catch up on emails, don't know if I'll get caught up on here or not!
Heading to Colorfest in Thurmont tomorrow for most of the day!
Good evening every one! We are back home in Bedford. This has been an absolutely wonderful day!
Did you get your big bearhug from you baby, Sharon??? Glad you are back in your roost.
Paula, too!!
Goodnight to Deb and Megan---already gone.
I am going to say goodnight to all of you dear people. Heading to tub where I have a good book waiting to be finished. Talk to you all tomorrow! Praise for all answered prayers, and more of them for those in need. Peace.
Sharon - sure is nice to see your college kid, isn't it!
Mine is home for the weekend...I especially love the hugs!
Yes, welcome back Paula, and Sharon....
Nice to see you peeps are back in home territory.
I hope tomorrow is great for you Paula....lost of color, and lots of fest!
milk only, Jo, no oatmeal creme pies....yet....not close enough to egg-laying time yet.
Headed for the showers.
Good Night, to those I will miss...
Still have some night-owling to do, will close out a little later on.
xoxoxo
No oatmeal pies here either, but I did have some brownies! :)
SO it is time for your bubbly tub, Lynn
I am calling it a day... I know Margy will return but I hope she gets some shut eye too.
Good Night All!
Prayers for everyone's' wants/needs
(((hugs))) ♥
Night Paula - Enjoy tomorrow with all those crafts and goodies.......
Night Again.......
Yeah and Andrew knows to not even try it with a 1-arm hug. He knows to get both of them up! It was a really good visit with him, just not near long enough!
It's been a good day around here. Dustin mowed my lawn again and raked leaves and debris from our 40mph winds we had that landed right ing front of the shop. Good customer traffic. Ad in the paper and sign is now on the highway. That helps a lot.
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Glad you got to see him, Sharon.
Night to those already turned in and those turning in later.
Time for me to hit the hay!
Night all!
Hugs to all ♥
Hey, It is Tomorrow, really, not Friday, but Sunday!
Happy Birthday Belle! ♥
Hope your birthday is just as grand as it can possibly be...filled with all your favorite things...
Hope you can come visit us on the Blog

Good end-of-day reports from Wanda, Paula and Sharon.
Don't think we heard from Loretta after she starting cracking crabs.
Before I started blogging, but was watching all this crazy chatter, I remember Belle posting...would love to see her jump on here again.
Good Night to a few more already with the pillows, and in advance to any headed that way...Hope Hedgie doesn't fall asleep in the tubby. ☺
God Bless Us, Every One
Just passing through. Stopped to read what happened after I went to bed last night.
Think I will go back to bed for awhile.
Good Morning...☺
watching the Pix Pa cam, wondering if the feed toss at 6:45 will be on time...
Nice morning skies here...
saw ISS sail by from South to North, was not on the schdule, but it was a nice long transit..
I can't get Finland to open :(
was watching a White-Tailed Eagle on there before bedtime last night, and then the picture went blank :(
Right on schedule...there had been some big fat raccoons in the area but they were all gone before the feed tossed....
guess they will be back soon
Jo
Before I forget, Lake Washington Live cam back up for the Eagle Nest....discovered that last night. ☺
going back to bed to read for awhile
Best wishes for a good day.
Megan first Sunday in a looong time with no market, right?
Thank you so much for the offer on the Stink Bugs, but I will decline ☺
xo ☺
Chilly morning here, 37° around 6 am.
Well, ok, Margy, just trying to help a friend out. Just hate for you to miss the stink bug experience, don't want you to feel left out.
Good morning again.
Chilly here, too. Maybe not as low as 37.
Weather channel says 44 degrees here.
Morning:) It's 39° here now.
24 degrees in Ft. Collins. High there is to be 44 today. Brrrr. Bet my brother isn't riding the bike today.
You were going to share the stink bug experience with Margy? From what I have been hearing we all might get a chance to experience it in Shepherdstown.
Enjoying eggs and sausage this morning. Really wanted it yesterday, but was out, so I picked some up on my journey into the world yesterday evening. Sausage is a bit too spicy for me. Will go back to Bob Evans next time.
good morning everyone...have a good one:)
Hi Mits!
Happy Birthday, Belle,,,hope you have a great day, stop by sometime if you can.
Good morning, everyone.
Sure was nice not to have that stupid light shining on my eyes all night. Did sleep well.
Going to get an extra sip or two of coffee and then tackle the last of the assignment responses. Will be so happy to have them finished. Need to spend some time preparing for next week as well.
Enjoy the day! Lovely cool and sunshiny here this a.m.
Judie
Hi Judie,
Good morning. Glad to know you weren't kept awake by a worrisome light.
Bluejay hollering at Pix Pa.
