I am at work and had a chance to look in and saw that there was a new thread. Then the phone rang. How dare these people. Don't they know I have to read the comments.
After careful consideration, I think we are going to get a less expensive room in Martinsburg for Saturday night. I have a reservation at the Clarion for Saturday night and thought I would ask if anyone on here wants it before I cancel it.
Good Morning All! I am up/slowly running! lol I need to go over to earlier thread and see what is going on here. Sissy be sure to find your other accommodation first - don't want you to be without a room.
Nope, no balloon ride for us! Just watched many rise into the sky. We went for the special shapes and that is soooo cool! Jacob's favorite was Darth Vader. There were a bunch that were my favorite! lol You get to be on the field with them, walking amongst them, looking into the balloons as they are inflated. It is very exciting.
Jack and I did take a balloon ride when he turned 50. It was over the Ft. Worth botanical garden and north Ft. Worth. Would do it again! Jacob and Joseph will just have to go with their parents or when they are older. Not taking on that responsibility!
When it was time for Laurel to deliver Joseph, Joey put his arm around my shoulder and said "Come on , Mom!" I was sooooo thrilled! I was the photograper!
With Jacob, not only was I the photographer, but the doctor had me hold Laurel's knee. If she had a third, she wanted her Daddy in the room. (Sitting off to one side!)
So far, so good at the doctor's office. Orthopedic doctor greeted me by saying,"I hear you are falling apart." I am sure he uses that line frequently, but I appreciated the relaxed tone.
Diagnosis is arthritis with no sign of anything more sinister. Got a prescription for Naproxen and some exercises to do. He said that teachers are terrible patients because we don't have time to take care of ourselves. Nice man. Knows the right kind of things to say.
He said that there is no need to recommend physical therapy because I wouldn't do it anyway. Will do an MRI if it seems necessary, but not now. I go back in 3 weeks.
WOO HOO just stopping in for a second... Just saw a beautiful pair of red tailed hawks circling the yard, nice a close up! Well, looks like the forecast for our camping trip is going to be be really bad and YEAH the good news is Open House is looking better and better for us to be there!
Well, Buddy the Bassett Hound escaped last night and rolled in poop. Came home smelling like a rose and had to get a bath. Today, he escaped yet again. I drove around the neighborhood thinking that if I didn't find him, I would have to move back to WV. I came back by the house for the umpteenth time and he had knocked the garbage over in the driveway. He does not smell like poop today, thank God!
Well, in having so many dogs, we have to tie 2 out front and 1 out back. I had Buphals out the back door (same thing as last night - DUH ME!) I let Buddy in the front door and he went straight to the back door and I guess it wasn't latched and he got right out. Maybe after this today, I will learn to secure all doors at all times. No, he doesn't smell like garbage because he just gotten to it.
It is so funny. I left the web cam on for Sissy to watch while I went to a meeting at noon. As soon as I left the house, Buddy jumped up to my desk to see if there was anything there. He is always ready!
It's been way too long since I've been here. First things first:
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WANDA!!!! Hope our Costume Lady has a wonderful, best-ever Birthday!!!!
Busy with homework and house cleaning--about to try our steam cleaner on the bathroom tile. Will give you an update to let you know how well it works.
It was raining earlier this morning, so I'm a happy camper! My favorite weather! Thank God, it stopped long enough for the gardeners to mow the lawn--perfect!
Haven't been able to catch up here yet, so hope everyone is doing well. Prayers for everyone being said. The nest is looking good! It appears that our eagles have yanked the "tree" that used to be in the nest. I can tell they've been bringing in a lot more sticks, too.
Gotta go grab a bite of lunch, and finish cleaning the extra bedroom. Hope you all have a great afternoon, and I'll try to check back later this afternoon. Take care! :o]
Hello gang. Finally got into mail in basic version and on here, as well...afraid to try to open much at this point. Certainly not trying any links, attachments or cams until later this evening!! Sissy, did you have any luck finding a room in Martinsburg? Was going to give same advice Jo did---don't cancel until you know!! It's Apple Harvest Festival here-----plus Shepherd Homecoming, and doubt that S'town has enough hotel rooms to accomodate all those alums---so it might be a bit difficult! Try CharlesTown if you need to.
I'm back from the second doctor's visit. They do not think anything really scary is happening to me. I feel much better. Surprisingly, my blood pressure is good. I thought it would be high with all the worrying I was doing.
I do have some more lab work to take care of. I hate to miss so much time from work, but I have to get this taken care of, so I think I will do that tomorrow.
Must feed George. He thinks he is being badly neglected.
Oh, my goodness...THANK YOU, THANK YOU...my heart is just filled with greetings and joy from all of you!
I drove down to the Clarion a while ago and there is a large parking area for all of us at the side entrance of the BANQUET ROOMS. It is to the left of the Clarion and is designated as "Banquet Rooms". Just a short walk to our Salon C Room from the parking lot. Will post photos on Just for Fun in a minute. Rain is good...it will not dampen our spirits. Like Sharon said earlier...the Eagle Express is dry, heated, and plenty of room. All the comforts that we need and a windshield wiper to clear the way for sighting Lib & Belle. The shuttle buses will pick you up at the Eagle Express and take you to where you want to go and drop you back off when you are done with other activities.
Sharon, you will have to ask Susan about Sassafras and the horse poop. It is quite a story.
Sassafras liked to roll in anything stinky. She really loved stinky sneakers, too. The stinkier, the better. She would just stick her nose into the shoe and inhale blissfully. She was something else!
Well, Shirley, Sassafras would have loved Dustin this past weekend. We kept smelling a horrific odor. Capt. Gene finally told Dustin he needed to take a shower. He said it wasn't him that smelled, but his sneakers. Sure enough, took them and his socks to the laundry room and washed them in bleach water and sprayed the house with Fabreeze...house, once again, smelled like a normal country home! Never had that odor before, hope to never have it again!
Hi B-day gal! Everyone makes you feel so special, don't they! So many true friends - it is so wonderful!
Thanks for checking out the parking lot! Where will the Eagle Express be Saturday 10 am -- out front or around on the side where cars are to be parked for the dinner?
Don't know what time Megan's day started. She was here around 2:50 - at least there wasn't any rain to spoil any activities on her schedule. Did you ever hear her say about the hours
My hours are differennt every day. Depends on how many groups I have scheduled for that day. And today was very hectic, but went perfectly. One of my favorite schools, nice teachers, nice parents, and great kids. My legs are sore, lot of walking and running....
Thanks, birthday gal, for that excellent parking news!! Really good for us who have trouble walking long distances! One of the most common explanations for that horrible foot odor is that it's an interaction between body chemistry and manmade materials used in shoes. Recommended remedy is to wear leather!! But I had a problem with WHITE HOSE doing it! Best reason for getting away without wearing them when I worked!! Of course, once we started wearing colored scrubs, everyone stopped wearing white stockings!
Checked out the Delta nest. It is really a mess, and I am trying to figure out what is in it. It almost looks like a little bird has a nest in the eagle nest and is sitting on it, but I do not see how that makes sense this time of the year. Must be something else.
Looks like there are going to be some major changes at that website.
I am sitting here at my little window where the birdfeeders are. T-Bird put some bread out here for the birds. I look out the window and there is Buddy eating the bread! He is so funny. He leaves no loaf unturned for sure!
Cheated on supper tonight. Was at Wegmans looking for comfort food and came across the ingredients for beef stew all bagged up and in its own little pan. Smells wonderful cooking!
I guess we will park the Eagle Express in the Parking Lot nearest the entrance to our Banquet Room.
Capt. Gene vacuumed 77 stink bugs from the dash of the Eagle Express today. Going to spray some foggers in there tonight to make sure there are no more hiding! What a pain in the butt they are this year. Have to vacuum the shop every morning. Unbelievable:(
Hello Dana! I go to eye DR tomorrow but just for a check up due to using the steroids.... Crossing my fingers that all is good. You and Ed get ready to stay warm - cold spell coming in. Thinking of you both always!
Dana, I've been trying to see what Chinese name means Roly Poly... lol
I got home too late to see the evening visit but I sure enjoyed all the new pictures from the last few days and from the first of month on the Momsters album, some really great photos! Megan, you had time to see the Eagles and post pics for us AND execute the great day as Head Muckity Muck.
Glad that Birthday Girl Wanda got to see them also !
Judie The two crimes I passed along for you to solve is 1) How to catch the Night Bandit and 2) How to figure out why Lynn ends up in the Penalty Box on her computer...
Boy all the mail I send, and I messed up on getting Jo's and Wands's Snail Mail cards out on time. Was a little distracted towards the end of last week, and forgot about the No-Mail Holiday... Sorry ladies...
Hi Jo I was looking at Great Gift too. I'll relax on the recliner and listen to the tv some I'll see and some I'll miss.
Yep warm we need to stay.
Have to take doggie out now on lead. He can't do steps anymore. It's hard on both of us. The family is going to help us put a ramp back in for the back yard for him to go down. We have one before but when knew porch put on guy talked Ed into taking it off. BOO !!
I got my grand prize mail today on being one of the first to see our eagles! Thanks Margy! I loved that care and the sticker, but more than that -- I love your friendship!
I can only keep Pix Pa up for a few minutes at a time...you've all heard my monotonous freezing story about that. So I missed the scampering raccoons, Jo. Just checked Lake Washington, looks cool and breezy there, no eagles but it is nice to see it live.
Great Pictures from last night's Eagles Visit, Paula.....☺
Margy you always surprise me with snail mail. I love it! Don't get much mail except fliers and ads - pay bills the paperless way on line. Love the stickers you send me! Favorite card from you says Just let the sun shine straight into your heart
Well, my work on the trailer came to a screaming halt today. We discovered our pecans were starting to be ready to be picked. Jack and I spent a good part of the day in a fine mist picking pecans. We had more that a wheelbarrow load when we decided to stop for the day. My neck was hurting from looking up! Wahoo! A pecan crop this year.
It will be hard to get to the trailer tomorrow. I LOVE picking pecans!
If I win the lottery tonight I am going to get lots of new furniture - maybe a house full or maybe a smaller house! I wish, I wish, I wish.... Then we would ALL really go on a LONG ROAD TRIP !!!
Two years ago we had a fantastic crop of pecans. Our best ever. Jack lets them dry and then shells them. We had 43 gallon bags of shelled pecans. Last year no pecans, but we still have pecans in the freezer.
Hi Dana!!! GOod to see you back with us. Did Ed's Steelers win this weekend?? I am going to submit ShangTu----it means warrior, I think! Need to check that---my female SharPei was named Shanghai Cheque (get it??), so named her daughter ShangTu (get it?). LOL! Her sons were Number One Son(who was born w/ hydrocephalus and had to be euthanized) and Key Luke.
Evening Everybody! Had checked Shepherdstown weather on Sunday & then next Sat. was supposed to be 61. NOW, they say high of 49!!! Maybe showers~~~boo. More layering ☺ Well there was a potential glitch in our Sat. plans. Fubby, in his zeal for antique cars, bought one & it is coming from Wisc. on SATURDAY.(I know how to drive by myself!!!!)Made a plan w/driver to deliver and get payment from neighbor. Just sent him pics of front of house & driveway. DUH!!
Glad to see Dana on here! ☺ Lolly, sounds like you were farming today. There are a couple pecan groves along hwy to my daughter's TX house. My SIL loves them, is from TN, & always has to have pecan pie for Thxgiving (as well as pumpkin).
I help pick and pick them up, Jack does the shelling. After they dry, he starts shelling them while watching football. He has an electric pecan sheller. He cracks them outside and then brings them in to complete the shelling and picking. He gets beautiful pecan halves. Yummy!
We have 5 pecan trees down front, only 4 produce good pecans. Have one tree in the back yard, but the squirrels can get into it and it is already picked clean. Trees down front are away from the house and the oak trees. They are also wired, to scare the squirrels away.
Lolly, dear, you may eat any and all of my share of pecans!! Only nuts I like are peanuts, cashews and macadamias!! Too bad acorns aren't people food---i could supply all momsters and dadsters this year! Loretta...glad you got that situation worked out!! What did Frank buy??? Does he want me to bring him the info on the Norwalk and the Futurliner to look at????
Jack has wired the trees with a pet sized fence charger. He has put two rings going around each of the trees. We see squirrels run past our trees to the neighbors. lol
Lynn.......pecans are soooo good! I love to bake with them, love pecan pie, season them to use in salads and have a great recipe for green beans that has pecans.
Had a really tiring day today. Too sleepy to try to catch up on all the doings. Did see Dana has returned - so nice to have you back.
So, turning my light off but leaving the night light on for othrs. Someone please take care of the security system for us. I'll try to catch up tomorrow but have about another 200 grades to post for the students. Can't wait for few days of freedom from school and students.

morning Ceil, thanks for the alert:):):)
I am at work and had a chance to look in and saw that there was a new thread. Then the phone rang. How dare these people. Don't they know I have to read the comments.
Ladies and gents...
After careful consideration, I think we are going to get a less expensive room in Martinsburg for Saturday night. I have a reservation at the Clarion for Saturday night and thought I would ask if anyone on here wants it before I cancel it.
Happy Birthday, Wanda!!
Good Morning All! I am up/slowly running! lol I need to go over to earlier thread and see what is going on here. Sissy be sure to find your other accommodation first - don't want you to be without a room.
Happy Birthday Wanda ! Enjoy your day and hope the year ahead is a great one for you
I don't think I have seen my hummers for a couple of days. Maybe they headed on down the road.
Good morning! Raining here...rained all night. Had lots of rain while we were gone. This is strange weather for Texas.
♫♫♫ Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear Wanda
Happy Birthday to you......
and many moooorrrre!♫♫♫
Hope your day is just fantastic! Love you!
I also want to say
NORMA....a happy belated Birthday to you! I was celebrating your birthday in New Mexico and missed wishing you a Happy Birthday. Hope it was GREAT! Love you!
Sounds like you had a great visit this morning from Belle and Lib. Maybe I will see them this evening. Have missed seeing them.
So sorry that Open House is supposed to be rainy, however, Saturday night should ROCK! Have fun!
Finland cam is not working:(
Nope, no balloon ride for us! Just watched many rise into the sky. We went for the special shapes and that is soooo cool! Jacob's favorite was Darth Vader. There were a bunch that were my favorite! lol You get to be on the field with them, walking amongst them, looking into the balloons as they are inflated. It is very exciting.
Jack and I did take a balloon ride when he turned 50. It was over the Ft. Worth botanical garden and north Ft. Worth. Would do it again! Jacob and Joseph will just have to go with their parents or when they are older. Not taking on that responsibility!
Sharon - where are you finding some translations for Chinese meanings. I was trying to find Roly Poly but came up with nothing!
lol I like Chang Gang!!!
Hi Mits! Been thinking about that new Grandbaby of yours that is due! What an exciting time! What a miracle!
yes, Lolly grandkids rock:)
I was right there beside Laurel when both Joseph and Jacob were born. Had to wait in the waiting room for Zach. But, what an experience!!!
Looks as though there will be Frost on the Pumpkins tonight! Very encouraging to see how many morning sightings were seen of our Regal Couple
I vote for the name Ka Cing$$$$$$$
only person in the delivery room is Kevin....:)
LOL Jo, every time I try to translate from English to Chinese I come up with the Chinese script. Not what I want!
Mits - Was Kevin or IS Kevin in the
delivery room?
When it was time for Laurel to deliver Joseph, Joey put his arm around my shoulder and said "Come on , Mom!" I was sooooo thrilled! I was the photograper!
With Jacob, not only was I the photographer, but the doctor had me hold Laurel's knee. If she had a third, she wanted her Daddy in the room. (Sitting off to one side!)
Just a reminder that there are many many buses at Open House and many many umbrellas! Nothing can dampen our Eagle Spirits!
I have dental - just a cleaning - this afternoon. The sun tried to peek through but didn't succeed for long.
I like that one too, Mits !
Ka Cing$$$$$$$ Ka Cing$$$$$$$
Going over to hotmail... Lots of messages.....
BBILW
Thanks Ceil and Steve.
So far, so good at the doctor's office. Orthopedic doctor greeted me by saying,"I hear you are falling apart." I am sure he uses that line frequently, but I appreciated the relaxed tone.
Diagnosis is arthritis with no sign of anything more sinister. Got a prescription for Naproxen and some exercises to do. He said that teachers are terrible patients because we don't have time to take care of ourselves. Nice man. Knows the right kind of things to say.
He said that there is no need to recommend physical therapy because I wouldn't do it anyway. Will do an MRI if it seems necessary, but not now. I go back in 3 weeks.
The next appointment is at 2:45.
Feeling a little better.
Lynn, I am sure your friend is grateful for your help when she was having a stroke. It it is always good to know others are looking out for you.
WOO HOO just stopping in for a second...
Just saw a beautiful pair of red tailed hawks circling the yard, nice a close up!
Well, looks like the forecast for our camping trip is going to be be really bad and YEAH the good news is Open House is looking better and better for us to be there!
Looking forward to meeting you, Lynne.
Same here!
Shirley - 1st one down with decent news
2nd one to go! I am thinking of you!
Headed out the door to dental
Tomorrow it will be the eyes ...
What did he say Shirley?
Falling Apart? LOL
Daddy used to say he was falling apart at the seams!!
Shirley, sounds like a great doctor. He knows teachers!
Sure hope the meds prescribed help out!
Have been searching for an English/Chinese translation that will work and have not been successful.
I decided to see this doctor because I had been to see him with Kathryn when she broke her leg and liked him.
Bought one of those heat things for my shoulder. Will decide if I like it. Expensive.
Going to relax for a little while before heading out again.
Fish crows still at BWO
In google, I typed in Chinese meanings of names and got a place for what I found.
Here's a translator I found...
Jo, Roly poly doesn't translate well!
English to Chinese </a
You can also google chinese baby names!

I'm back - new toothbrush for my prize!
I'll try that one Paula/Sharon .. Like Lolly said it usually gives you script. I will try "pudgy".
Luney wants to play but don't think Lun Lun does! First time in a long time that I've seen him awake! I forgot - is Luney a boy or girl?
Luney is a boy, Mema Jo!
so we have boys: Tai, Luney and Diego!
Thanks Sharon..
thank heaven for little "boys":)
Well, Buddy the Bassett Hound escaped last night and rolled in poop. Came home smelling like a rose and had to get a bath. Today, he escaped yet again. I drove around the neighborhood thinking that if I didn't find him, I would have to move back to WV. I came back by the house for the umpteenth time and he had knocked the garbage over in the driveway. He does not smell like poop today, thank God!
Oh Mits, that is so true!
So, Sharon, he smells like garbage instead? LOL
Good grief, what is wrong with that dog?
now how is he escaping?????
CALENDARS should be here Friday
I have to lock my front storm door so my dogs don't escape!
Page for Diego's name suggestions
Well, in having so many dogs, we have to tie 2 out front and 1 out back. I had Buphals out the back door (same thing as last night - DUH ME!) I let Buddy in the front door and he went straight to the back door and I guess it wasn't latched and he got right out. Maybe after this today, I will learn to secure all doors at all times. No, he doesn't smell like garbage because he just gotten to it.
It is a wonder the other dogs don't go right along with Buddy. I think Buddy is trying to tell you all something...
I wonder what it is?
I know what it is....he wants hot dogs for every meal...
ǎipà ng means
short and stout / dumpy / roly-poly
It is Mandarin & there is sound so you can hear the pronunciation.. cool...
It is so funny. I left the web cam on for Sissy to watch while I went to a meeting at noon. As soon as I left the house, Buddy jumped up to my desk to see if there was anything there. He is always ready!
My feet are going up for an hour or so.

Have a fun day, folks.

Good Afternoon, Everyone!
It's been way too long since I've been here. First things first:
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WANDA!!!!
Hope our Costume Lady has a wonderful, best-ever Birthday!!!!
Busy with homework and house cleaning--about to try our steam cleaner on the bathroom tile. Will give you an update to let you know how well it works.
It was raining earlier this morning, so I'm a happy camper! My favorite weather! Thank God, it stopped long enough for the gardeners to mow the lawn--perfect!
Haven't been able to catch up here yet, so hope everyone is doing well. Prayers for everyone being said. The nest is looking good!
It appears that our eagles have yanked the "tree" that used to be in the nest. I can tell they've been bringing in a lot more sticks, too.
Gotta go grab a bite of lunch, and finish cleaning the extra bedroom. Hope you all have a great afternoon, and I'll try to check back later this afternoon. Take care! :o]
Link to Open House brief description from NCTC Journal
Hello gang. Finally got into mail in basic version and on here, as well...afraid to try to open much at this point. Certainly not trying any links, attachments or cams until later this evening!!
Sissy, did you have any luck finding a room in Martinsburg? Was going to give same advice Jo did---don't cancel until you know!! It's Apple Harvest Festival here-----plus Shepherd Homecoming, and doubt that S'town has enough hotel rooms to accomodate all those alums---so it might be a bit difficult! Try CharlesTown if you need to.
Happy Birthday again to Wanda, in case she hasn't made it back to old thread!!
Andy, glad you got rain! Please don't wear yourself out so that you can't enjoy your company (I know, I know---look who's talking!! Yeah!)
Wanda, my friend, happy, happy, happy birthday.
Hello Friends,
I'm back from the second doctor's visit. They do not think anything really scary is happening to me. I feel much better. Surprisingly, my blood pressure is good. I thought it would be high with all the worrying I was doing.
I do have some more lab work to take care of. I hate to miss so much time from work, but I have to get this taken care of, so I think I will do that tomorrow.
Must feed George. He thinks he is being badly neglected.
Oh, my goodness...THANK YOU, THANK YOU...my heart is just filled with greetings and joy from all of you!
I drove down to the Clarion a while ago and there is a large parking area for all of us at the side entrance of the BANQUET ROOMS. It is to the left of the Clarion and is designated as "Banquet Rooms". Just a short walk to our Salon C Room from the parking lot. Will post photos on Just for Fun in a minute.
Rain is good...it will not dampen our spirits. Like Sharon said earlier...the Eagle Express is dry, heated, and plenty of room. All the comforts that we need and a windshield wiper to clear the way for sighting Lib & Belle. The shuttle buses will pick you up at the Eagle Express and take you to where you want to go and drop you back off when you are done with other activities.

Sure enough, took them and his socks to the laundry room and washed them in bleach water and sprayed the house with Fabreeze...house, once again, smelled like a normal country home! Never had that odor before, hope to never have it again!
Hi B-day gal! Everyone makes you feel so special, don't they! So many true friends - it is so wonderful!
Thanks for checking out the parking lot! Where will the Eagle Express be Saturday 10 am -- out front or around on the side where cars are to be parked for the dinner?
Sassafras would have been in heaven! She loved Tom's sneakers best of all. Would smell them and roll on them.
wonder how Megan's day went today??
Don't know what time Megan's day started. She was here around 2:50 - at least there wasn't any rain to spoil any activities on her schedule. Did
you ever hear her say about the hours
no, not sure what her hours are?
Who me???
My hours are differennt every day. Depends on how many groups I have scheduled for that day. And today was very hectic, but went perfectly. One of my favorite schools, nice teachers, nice parents, and great kids. My legs are sore, lot of walking and running....
Thanks, birthday gal, for that excellent parking news!! Really good for us who have trouble walking long distances!
One of the most common explanations for that horrible foot odor is that it's an interaction between body chemistry and manmade materials used in shoes. Recommended remedy is to wear leather!!
But I had a problem with WHITE HOSE doing it! Best reason for getting away without wearing them when I worked!! Of course, once we started wearing colored scrubs, everyone stopped wearing white stockings!
Megan, glad you got through the day okay, even without your help! Thank goodness the weather was decent!
Checked out the Delta nest. It is really a mess, and I am trying to figure out what is in it. It almost looks like a little bird has a nest in the eagle nest and is sitting on it, but I do not see how that makes sense this time of the year. Must be something else.
Looks like there are going to be some major changes at that website.
there you are Megan, must have missed you earlier:)
EAGLE!
Eagle
LOOKS LIKE b
I was thinking Belle too. Thanks for the shout out!
Thanks, weather was perfect. There's just no option, you have to make it work, and if does something goes wrong, it's all on me.
POOF!
well if anyone gives you trouble, let us know, we will come up and throw pumpkins at them:)
Interesting story! Just saw this on Channel 7 in Washington.
The Skunk Whisperer
Half-rotten pumpkins at that, ones that will really go splat!
What pals:)
doesn't that skunk know that "choosy mothers choose Jif"
BACK
I am sitting here at my little window where the birdfeeders are. T-Bird put some bread out here for the birds. I look out the window and there is Buddy eating the bread! He is so funny. He leaves no loaf unturned for sure!
LIB???
Think this is Lib!
I think if 2 or more say it, it must be true!
Basset hounds love bread almost as much as they love stinky stuff.
OH-OH, he is moving sticks;)
Lib is looking over his vast estate.
Both!
Belle is there now, she is in charge now!
BOTH
Lib just left!
poof and poof
Now MT!
Cheated on supper tonight. Was at Wegmans looking for comfort food and came across the ingredients for beef stew all bagged up and in its own little pan. Smells wonderful cooking!
falcon chicks alone, down under....you can see the unhatched egg.
mmmm, sounds good:)
Probably would not go to the trouble to do all of that preparation just for myself, but I will enjoy it.
No hot dogs in that bread for Buddy? LOL
Nope, just bread! There was more that he couldn't quite reach but he sure did try!
Hi Everyone
Wishing ALL A HAPPY BIRTHDAYS FOR THE PEOPLE I missed saying that too: I remember Norma, Bell and Wanda. If I missed anyone Happy Birthday to YOU too.
Do they have the selection anywhere to name the panda cub yet?
Well Golly! I was eating a late dinner and missed the entire show. Really happy you all were lucky enough to see our Eagles!
Dana, good to see you on here!!!!
I guess we will park the Eagle Express in the Parking Lot nearest the entrance to our Banquet Room.
Capt. Gene vacuumed 77 stink bugs from the dash of the Eagle Express today. Going to spray some foggers in there tonight to make sure there are no more hiding! What a pain in the butt they are this year. Have to vacuum the shop every morning. Unbelievable:(
Miss Dana...so good to see you on here. We have been thinking and sending up prayers for you for a good long time now!
Hey Daba:) Scroll up to Jo's 2:46 post from today, she posted a link to the panda naming page.
Who the heck is Daba??? I meant Dana.
Hi Dana!!! Great to see you back1
Thanks Sharon and Wanda been doctoring the left eye now. Things go good for awhile then blurry. Prayers for fix it all.
Thanks Megan I would have missed the comment for the page to name the cub.
How many times do you all think we get to put a name in?
If you have a couple of names you want me to run by my Chinese sister-in-law, let me know.
Tee hee Megan I love the miss spellings. It makes for fun...I knew what you mean't tee hee...
Yea Shirley you keeping yourself together or are you letting those kids tear you apart....put them in a corner lol
Doing okay, Dana. Most of my students this year are pretty good.
Hello Dana
YABBA DABA DO!! That was too good Megan!
Thelma and Buddy how goes it...Did you have Buddy on a lead today?
Hello Dana! I go to eye DR tomorrow but just for a check up due to using the steroids.... Crossing my fingers that all is good. You and Ed get ready to stay warm - cold spell coming in.
Thinking of you both always!
Dana, I've been trying to see what Chinese name means Roly Poly... lol
Dana tonight is Tuesday TV shows
Are you able to watch TV without it being blury?
I got home too late to see the evening visit but I sure enjoyed all the new pictures from the last few days and from the first of month on the Momsters album, some really great photos! Megan, you had time to see the Eagles and post pics for us AND execute the great day as Head Muckity Muck.
Glad that Birthday Girl Wanda got to see them also !
Good Evening Eagle Pals
The slide show feature is fun on those albums too.
Shirley, glad things were pretty much good today at the doctor's...love your first doctor's commments. Waiting on news from Judie too...
And glad to see our long lost Dana on here earlier also ☺ ♥
Judie
The two crimes I passed along for you to solve is 1) How to catch the Night Bandit and 2) How to figure out why Lynn ends up in the Penalty Box on her computer...
Boy all the mail I send, and I messed up on getting Jo's and Wands's Snail Mail cards out on time. Was a little distracted towards the end of last week, and forgot about the No-Mail Holiday...
Sorry ladies...
Hi Jo I was looking at Great Gift too. I'll relax on the recliner and listen to the tv some I'll see and some I'll miss.
Yep warm we need to stay.
Have to take doggie out now on lead. He can't do steps anymore. It's hard on both of us. The family is going to help us put a ramp back in for the back yard for him to go down. We have one before but when knew porch put on guy talked Ed into taking it off. BOO !!
There sure is a Gaze of Raccoons out at Pix Pa...missed the 7:30 shoot if there was one...
Chang Gang...like that, would be from Sharon, who likes to call Swinging Bridge, Swanging Bridge ☺
I got my grand prize mail today on being one of the first to see our eagles! Thanks Margy! I loved that care and the sticker, but more than that -- I love your friendship!
time to make some phone calls, be back in a little while.
Hope Little Man enjoys his outing, Dana...all 17 pounds of him ☺
xo
That Was a light shining in the PA woods
Almost looked like a spot light and all the raccoons ran away or went up the tree.
Thanks Sharon. Likewise ♥
Howdy Dana if you are still here!
Oh, and the calendars shipped today!
Glad your day went smoothly, Megan.
Missed the visit, had to throw the ball for the dogs and son stopped by to get paid! Gotta keep the help happy!
YES, thanks, Margy, I love stickers;)
Well I hope you all have a good evening.
Don't let the bed bugs bite.
I can only keep Pix Pa up for a few minutes at a time...you've all heard my monotonous freezing story about that. So I missed the scampering raccoons, Jo. Just checked Lake Washington, looks cool and breezy there, no eagles but it is nice to see it live.
Great Pictures from last night's Eagles Visit, Paula.....☺
I think that snowmancam thermometer is stuck at 38°
Margy you always surprise me with snail mail. I love it! Don't get much mail except fliers and ads - pay bills the paperless way on line.
Love the stickers you send me!
Favorite card from you says
Just let the sun shine straight
into your heart
Hey Margy, I can't keep it up either, I do the refresh one.
I had to order a new laptop for the college kid, he broke his screen. I should have ordered 2!!
There has not been any eagles up at Lake WA that I've been able to see and I check it out daily when I do the little burrowing owls.
Hello Paula! Frost on the Pumpkins
tonight?
Hi Daba! Great to see you have been on.
Well, my work on the trailer came to a screaming halt today. We discovered our pecans were starting to be ready to be picked. Jack and I spent a good part of the day in a fine mist picking pecans. We had more that a wheelbarrow load when we decided to stop for the day. My neck was hurting from looking up! Wahoo! A pecan crop this year.
It will be hard to get to the trailer tomorrow. I LOVE picking pecans!
Is it gonna frost tonight?
Wow Lolly that's a lot of pecans! I miss the ones my grandmother used to send up...she lived in Mobile.
Glad you had a great trip!
Sheila and her chicks are napping!
Lisa has some interesting pics on her update page.
Shirley -
Furniture delivery WED
WHoo Hoo !
If I win the lottery tonight I am going to get lots of new furniture - maybe a house full or maybe a smaller house! I wish, I wish, I wish....
Then we would ALL really go on a LONG
ROAD TRIP !!!
Hi there Margy, Paula and Lolly.
Oh I don't eat them but love the smell of pecan pie.
Oh Margy I think the poor pup is loosing weight lol
Frost Paula Frost people will be covering their flowers.
Two years ago we had a fantastic crop of pecans. Our best ever. Jack lets them dry and then shells them. We had 43 gallon bags of shelled pecans. Last year no pecans, but we still have pecans in the freezer.
Lolly - once you pick them from the trees do you enjoy hauling them for those luscious pecans?
OK this was fun but eyes getting tired.
Heading for recliner and something cool to drink.
Take Care
God knows who needs the prayers I send to HIM.
Have Fun Enjoy Life!
I better go cover em up! Thanks for the heads up, ladies!
Off to watch TV programs
BBILW (During commercials to play catch up)
Hi Dana!!! GOod to see you back with us. Did Ed's Steelers win this weekend??
I am going to submit ShangTu----it means warrior, I think! Need to check that---my female SharPei was named Shanghai Cheque (get it??), so named her daughter ShangTu (get it?). LOL! Her sons were Number One Son(who was born w/ hydrocephalus and had to be euthanized) and Key Luke.
Evening Everybody!
Had checked Shepherdstown weather on Sunday & then next Sat. was supposed to be 61. NOW, they say high of 49!!! Maybe showers~~~boo.
More layering ☺
Well there was a potential glitch in our Sat. plans. Fubby, in his zeal for antique cars, bought one & it is coming from Wisc. on SATURDAY.(I know how to drive by myself!!!!)Made a plan w/driver to deliver and get payment from neighbor. Just sent him pics of front of house & driveway. DUH!!
Glad to see Dana on here! ☺
Lolly, sounds like you were farming today. There are a couple pecan groves along hwy to my daughter's TX house. My SIL loves them, is from TN, & always has to have pecan pie for Thxgiving (as well as pumpkin).
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WANDA!!!
I help pick and pick them up, Jack does the shelling. After they dry, he starts shelling them while watching football. He has an electric pecan sheller. He cracks them outside and then brings them in to complete the shelling and picking. He gets beautiful pecan halves. Yummy!
We have 5 pecan trees down front, only 4 produce good pecans. Have one tree in the back yard, but the squirrels can get into it and it is already picked clean. Trees down front are away from the house and the oak trees. They are also wired, to scare the squirrels away.
What do you wire them with, Lolly?
My pix is really dark, can't see much!
Lolly, dear, you may eat any and all of my share of pecans!! Only nuts I like are peanuts, cashews and macadamias!!
Too bad acorns aren't people food---i could supply all momsters and dadsters this year!
Loretta...glad you got that situation worked out!! What did Frank buy???
Does he want me to bring him the info on the Norwalk and the Futurliner to look at????
Jack has wired the trees with a pet sized fence charger. He has put two rings going around each of the trees. We see squirrels run past our trees to the neighbors. lol
Lynn.......pecans are soooo good! I love to bake with them, love pecan pie, season them to use in salads and have a great recipe for green beans that has pecans.
Raccons at pix now...
so is that a little charge there for the squirrels, Lolly? bet it's funny to see them run past.
Remote at pix was on, not sure what's there!
I love pecans...think they're my fav nut
Yum, I had to go get a handful out of the freezer, Lolly!
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't!
I do......love pecans.
Yaba daba do- just knew someone would go there. lol...
Lolly, do you need our mailing addresses?? :)
I think she does....
LOL Would love to share if we lived closer!
All our family gets pecans at Christmas when we have a good crop, as well as our neighbors.
lol Megan! I looked at the keyboard to see why your typo happened. Dana is now Daba!
The worst part is I saw the typo and fixed it...except I deleted the n instead of the b :)
And you can't eat just one~!
Yeah, when I bake quite a few go into my mouth. lol
Watching Dancing!
Hi everyone,
Had a really tiring day today.
Too sleepy to try to catch up on all the doings. Did see Dana has returned - so nice to have you back.
So, turning my light off but leaving the night light on for othrs. Someone please take care of the security system for us. I'll try to catch up tomorrow but have about another 200 grades to post for the students. Can't wait for few days of freedom from school and students.
G'night
Commercial - I am on my 2nd NCIS show
I love pecans! Especially in pies!
BBILW
Well, Judie
You will have some hard-earned Freedom and Fun this week-end.

Good Night...
I love pecans. Love to eat them and love things that have them in them. Like Butter Pecan Ice Cream for example ☺
Hi Folks
Waiting for Loretta to answer what make and year and color of vehicle is showing up this week-end. Wonder if it has fins
I Love that Flag on Sissy's avatar!
Martinsburg Hotel, huh...which one ?
Or did you say Winchester, CRS'ing it here.
I think Lolly IS dancing, not just watching.
Time for a bath...
Happy Birthday Again, Wanda, before we Split... ☺
Sissy is staying at the Red Roof Inn in Winchester on Friday night and the Days Inn in Martinsburg on Saturday.
We are getting ready to split!
