Lynne2 said...

hey Jo! I'm Jan. 6!

Lynne2 said...

I see the rainbow ring too!!! Often means a weather front is on the way.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Going to bed now folks. Hopefully sore throat will be gone by tomorrow!

Lynne2 said...

OOOOOO split!

Prayers for your friend Lynn...wow, that IS young.

Shirley, would George happen to be on Hill's Prescription w/d canned food? You sure don't want him home tonight....remember your colonoscopy prep ;) He's gonna be a busy fella tonight!

Judie said...

Well, short nap and am back to sign off.

Hope George is all better tomorrow, Shirley.

Can't see ice rings around moon because my stove is too shiny bright -- first time in many moons.

Sharon, Thelma hope you both are better by tomorrow.

Instead of a frozen t.v. dinner, I think the owl is having a frozen blog dinner.

Loretta, I understand the logic but if Darth told me to get something new, I would be handing him the sales receipt.

Jo, thanks for the birthday/anniversary reminders. Sure hope you had nice evening.

Okay, I've done more than I should have today but just needed to feel I still had something accomplished.

Turning my light off but leaving the night light on for others. Andy, please set the security system when you come in.

Sweet eagle dreams for all.

Lynne2 said...

hope you feel better Sharon! Gargle with some salt water!

hedgie said...

Shar and Shirley----Propulsid was pulled for humans due to possibly causing heart arrythmias; it is still available, I think, as an orphan drug for those whose get no relief with other meds. Don't think it is made in US anymore. Veterinary compounding continues, so it apparently doesn't cause the problem with animals.

More info on my friend Rick. He fell in the middle of the night and struck his head, causing a severe bleed. Straight to surgery. Then a couple of days later, had a bleed on the opposite side. I imagine that the fall was due to low blood sugar----he is a brittle diabetic, and doesn't follow protocols well. He over-exerts, which uses up his sugar too fast but he doesn't adjust his insulin dosage. I have saved him several times at work with infusions of glucose.

Judie said...

Lynn, an eagle prayer for your friend. Young enough that we can hope for a quick and complete recovery.

Lynne2 said...

aahhhh, so that bright light coming from the Great Commonwealth of Virginia was your STOVE Judie!

Lynne2 said...

Oh Lynn, I sure hope he's going to be OK and WILL follow protocols from now on....

hedgie said...

Judie, congrats on your shiny stove! But you always accomplish something, so don't feel that you have to push it!!

Jo, thanks for sending out reminders!!

Loretta, I have that problem with my HP printer, too. I have re-downloaded a couple of times, but still can't get toolbox to come up anymore. Duh!!! But it does a so much better job w/ pictures than my Epson does, so hate to dump it.

stronghunter said...

Prayers for your friend to learn how to take care of himself, Lynn. Sometimes that is the most important part of the cure.

I am going to head up to my warm bed. Tired. Just hope George is sleeping soundly now. Sometimes it takes awhile for them to get him fixed.

I told them they might want to trim his claws before they started working on him.

See you all tomorrow.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Shirley
I am sure George will be glad to see you when you go to pick him up & he will really feel so much better.

Mema Jo said...

Good Night Judie! I am so happy to hear you and Frank had a good day together and you can certainly see the results just shinning away.
Take care and sleep well... Sure hope your leg feels better and better as each day passes.

Mema Jo said...

Oh, poor George! And, I know you miss him tonight.

Football on tonight, but I am not watching. Been playing computer games. Think I have collapsed after the holidays. They are predicting rain and snow tomorrow. Yuk! I will take a light snow but not the rain!

Cleaned house today and put a lot of leftovers into the freezer. Tomorrow need to rsvp a couple of parties. Going to a friends house NYE and two days later to a surprise party for the person who is giving the NYE party. So, two parties with he same group of folks. And, this is not a group I know well.

hedgie said...

His diabetes mismanagement has bee n a lifetime thing-----even as a child from what he has admitted. Things do not sound at all good....I am very worried about him. Fever, siezures, feeding tube, vent.....

NatureNut said...

Lynn, prayers for your friend and for everyone ☺

Put Moon & PA owl on spot.

hedgie said...

Oops...make that seizures---definitely one of those words that defies the ol' rule of I before E except after C!!!

hedgie said...

Well, dear friends, I am heading for the tub and then stoke the fire and hit the hay! Sure is a cold night---flurrying again here, and wind is howling. Supposed to be even worse tomorrow---argh!!! Hope everyone stays warm and sleeps well. Prayers for all.

paula eagleholic said...

LOL, I got stuck in the split!

Gnite Judie, Shirley and Lynn.

Prayers for your friend, Lynn.

NatureNut said...

Thx Lynn about same problem w/printer. I thought about reinstalling the program but didn't know if I had to remove what's there now or not. Was afraid I might not get any of it to work.
Judie has a great attitude! As a matter of fact, our TX Xmas presents came in their NEW HP printer box! Gotta check out the model!
I better tend to night chores, like shining the stovetop ☺ & get away from this machine!
So, Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

Lynne2 said...

Loretta ALL your pictures are great and those are some amazing Christmas decorations!

Ms Hopalong looks like she has an injury similar to a doe that I used to see across the street in the fields. But I didn't see her at all over the summer or since :(

Mema Jo said...

Lynne - I'll send an update on b-days tomorrow... Might get some more by then

Lolly said...

Good night, Lynn. Certainly will lift up prayers for your friend.

Sleep well! (((Hugs)))

Lynne2 said...

Good night Lynn and Loretta. I'm heading for bed too so sweet dreams and prayer for all.

Lynne2 said...

OK JO!

NatureNut said...

PS: Hadn't read back~~~Shirley, hope George gets all fixed and comes home soon. ☺

Mema Jo said...

MEGAN are you out there?

Mema Jo said...

The deer are in the snowy PA woods now. They have to use their noses in the snow to find the food - Should have been a food throw at 10:30.

Mema Jo said...

News time and also time to close up shop. Hope that snow stays away from this valley.

Good Night
Peace to you and yours
Prayers for everyone's needs/wants

Stay warm (((hugs))) ♥ ♥ ♥

Costume Lady said...

I'm headed for bed...spent the afternoon cleaning a bit at GGs and getting her some groceries
She is much better today!

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS.
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL

NatureNut said...

Minn & Da Bears-OT!!

Lolly said...

Game still going! Rather exciting.

Time to say good night. Weather report sounded better, Looks like the roads will probably stay clear, Hope so!

My eyes are tired. lol

Nite all,love and (((hugs)))

NatureNut said...

DA BEARS!!!

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone!

Fell asleep after dinner watching a boring TV show, and am just now getting here!

Lynn, MANY prayers for your friend, Rick. Hope his youth will help with recovery. Hope, too, that his diabetes can be better controlled. So sorry to hear that he's in such a fragile condition!
(((HUGS))) for you, and for his family.

Shirley, prayers for George, too!
Poor fellow probably IS mighty busy tonight! Sure hope he feels ever so much better, real soon! Know how much you must be missing him--(((HUGS))) for you, too! When we still had cats, we used to give them Petromalt. It comes in a tube, and I think tastes like fish. Our cats used to gobble it up, and it worked well for them. Not prescription, available at pet stores.
Judie, if you and Darth are for hire to clean ovens, I could use the two of you! (Maybe I should make that my project for tomorrow--Sis-in-law & Brother-in-law are home for now, so don't have to go anywhere.) On second thought, maybe you should just take it easy tomorrow.
Mema Jo, my Hubby, Ken, has a Birthday on Jan. 17th. Thanks so much for keeping us up to date on celebration dates! No easy task!
OH--forgot to mention that there was a Scrub Jay in our yard! Haven't seen one in a while. Love those rascals! Also, our Anna's hummers are hanging in there, even with the cold weather we've had lately. They are amazing little critters!

Ms Bookworm said...

Wanda, I'm SO glad to hear that GG's feeling better! You must be so relieved! Me too!
Sharon, I'd rather have a sore throat instead of what Thelma's got too, but actually, no sore throat at all would be best. Prayers for both of you, and (((HUGS))), too. Prayers of protection for those around you, too!
Well, better get back to sleep--Hubby will be up in an hour to get ready for work. Prayers for EVERYONE being said. The eye scanner is enabled, the porch light's automatic, and the night light and Christmas lights are on.
Sleep tight, and will talk to you later this morning. Love you guys!
G'night, all. :o]

Lynne2 said...

wow those flamimgo are in the water doing a happy dance!

glo said...

Da Bears Oh my who won? Haven't even turned ont he TV yet. When I do it will tell me how cold I am going to be :-0.

Good morning everyone. I guess it really is winter everywhere these days. I have like 3 layers of clothes set out for today.

Hope you all get to feeling better mighty soon. And George comes home today feeling so very much better. He is done with his Christmas treats I take it. I was awakened by quite the sound outside my window. Hoping it was just a couple of raccoons doing their thing and not an animal off to be breakfast for some other animal bUT that is the circle of life. I do think my neighbor deserves some new raccoons but that is another story completely. Like Sharon used to have, I have probably the sister for my neighbor to my right. She is a real prize . OK Gonna get dressed 3 times. Stay warm.

Oh glad to read GG is feeling better too.

normabyrd said...

TRY:---shiba inu puppy cam

normabyrd said...

LYNN2--try to goggle the site---

DA BEARS won in overtime!---(curses)!!

magpie said...

Good Morning Eagle ♀'s and ♂'s.

Brrrr!

But not as Brrrr as Finland, that is some snowfall they had overnight.

We might all have to wear 3 layers like Glo (and probably Dex) is doing today.

Well, maybe not our California Momsters and Dadsters....

sun just clearing the horizon here

normabyrd said...

Must start getting dressed---going to try to go to W/OUT this am!--24°
maybe??

Lynne2 said...

I can only find the shiba inu pup recorded videos from last year. Sure are cuties!

magpie said...

friend in the woods yesterday up here saw bluebirds, waxwings and a flock of robins! I've been in those same woods and seen them too, but not for many years, need to go back this time with a camera

magpie said...

Those are some great afternoon visit photos from yesterday that Jo posted in the album...Thanks Jo!

magpie said...

three layers for you too Norma, and hold on tight to something!

normabyrd said...

MORNIN' MARGY---I need to get your work days straightened out! ho!
ENJOY--SLEEP &/OR WORK! ho!

glo said...

Norma Norma whatcha doin cursin my Bears. Glad you went to see the pictures. I will go back out there today but not till after lunch this time, since its not a race between sun and clouds.

I dont have the link for the puppy cam darn. I did catch it some last year but I didn't save it. Puppy season for that family and eagle season locally, run about the same time. So I need it again too. Sorry Lynne but I am sure you will have it before long. :-)

magpie said...

Lynn I am sorry to read of your friend's illness and will be adding prayers as well

Shirley - also sorry to hear of George's ailment, and hope he will be ready to come home today.
Prayers for him and you today...

magpie said...

These are big dangerous winds around these parts, everyone be careful. Avoid the interstates with big trucks if you can, and watch out for flying debris.....

normabyrd said...

MARGY!---Please give LYNN2 the SHIBA INU PUPPY site!---It is open this am & is an adorable site!!

magpie said...

If the Eagles visit the nest, they will surely be using those talons to hold on tight!

Headed for sleep,
Best Wishes to all for a good day, and hope that all illnesses will subside today.

xo ☺ ♥

glo said...

Magpie Dex does have a naice heavy sweater and booties for when the ground is this cold. I left the heater running yesterday as only stayed at the dam about 15 mins, not that much activity there really just yet. Then swung by the arsenal dam area another 10 or 15. I will put an extra blanket in the car today for him in case I stay long enough to turn the car off. And its going to be sunny with light winds so won't be too bad. But yep his mama bundles him up too.

magpie said...

Okay let me look and see if I saved it Norma, Glo and Lynne...
back in a minute or two, but I think others will provide it if I don't have it....

normabyrd said...

WHOA MARGY!---No interstates in ROMNEY---LOTS OF BIG TRUCKS though!! ho!---

magpie said...

Well here is a link I have to study it to see if it is current:

Puppy Cam

magpie said...

Well that will get you started...I don't have time right now to figure out when it is live and when it is replay...but it should be fun either way!

Glo, your pictures were just great, back to have you doing that again for us !

Norma - I need to get my days and nights straightened out also! I return to dayshift this week-end...

TTFN for now, folks
xo ♥

Lynne2 said...

I'm tellin' you, that is too much cute for first thing in the morning!! You can almost smell their puppy breath!!

GOOD MORNING....This is the site that we watched earlier in the year and it was adorable!

stronghunter said...

Good morning!

Lynne, I went to bed last night without answering your question. George is on Hill's i/d. He also has bladder problems, so we have been through lots of prescription foods. He had surgery for those problems some time ago, and has been better in that respect. The end part of his alimentary canal has given him many difficulties.

Costume Lady said...

BEWARE of that site if your 'puter has been acting up...it just threw me off and into my email?!

glo said...

Thanks Magpie and Wanda Off to coffee and dog treats. Enjoy your day.

Costume Lady said...

Shirley, how old is George?

Mits said...

good morning everyone...have a good one:)

Costume Lady said...

Time for me to check out GLO'S GLIMPSES.
Margy and Glo would have a blast together, Birdwatching:)

Costume Lady said...

Good Morning, Helen...where have you been?

Mits said...

just have been busy, Wanda:), can't believe Christmas has come and gone soooooo fast.

Mits said...

eagle BWE

Mits said...

update from BWE........

12/29/09:
Nice shot of our parents rearranging the furniture.

If you're new to our cam, be sure to read our Eagle Watchers Guide (PDF), which has photos & facts about the Blackwater NWR breeding season.

Mits said...

amen;)

stronghunter said...

Wanda,

George is about 12 years old. He is a rescue kitty. Someone found him along with his litter mates, as I recall, in a parking lot at a shopping center where Kathryn was working. She brought him home, but when he got older, he did not get along with her other male kitty, so he came to live with me.

Costume Lady said...

Well, Shirley, sounds like he has found a special home with you! He will probably be like the ENERGIZER BUNNY when he comes home:)

Costume Lady said...

Sure would like to hear about the Kalis Christmas!

Costume Lady said...

Sure do love the way Blackwater keeps us updated on their site!
Thanks Helen for the reminder:)

stronghunter said...

Good morning, Helen, good to see you on here this morning.

Mits said...

thanks, Shirley....Wanda, Christmas was great, got to see the kids Christmas Eve and Christmas day, also good to see my nephew Jim and his fiancee on Christmas and Saturday, they will be returning to Oregon later today, Ceil, MM and Jim, brought them over to D.C. for the weekend, they went to the zoo and did some other things, so Ceil has been busy too.

stronghunter said...

Just called the vet. They are still working with George. It usually takes awhile. Poor guy has a hard time with this problem.

Mits said...

beautiful snowy MT nest up in Maine.

Lynne2 said...

Mits...sound like you had a wonderful Holiday!!

I am sure glad Wanda is feeling better, GG!

Lynne2 said...

OK as soon as I hit the button I knew I had that wrong....

WANDA, I am glad GG is feeling better!

(it was a dyslexic moment)

Costume Lady said...

Thanks Shirley, I'm always relieved when she feels good!

Helen, I hope Jim or MM will have some photos to share:)

stronghunter said...

wind is picking up here. I do not want to venture outdoors. I think it is a good day for a fire.

Lynne2 said...

Shirley I sure hope George is feeling better today. It sucks when a cat has 2 health issues going on at the same time....is he prone to UTIs? So often the treatments for one can inhibit the treatments for the other.

Costume Lady said...

Shirley, I just read your story of the pigeons...sweet story:)

stronghunter said...

I am glad GG is better, too, Wanda and Lynne.

stronghunter said...

Pigeons?

Mits said...

Wanda, Christmas day, looked like a paparazzi feast, someone got some pictures, hopefully:).

Costume Lady said...

SORRY, Lynne and Shirley...I had a Dyslexic moment too! Lynne had the sweet pigeon story!

stronghunter said...

George had lots of UTIs until they removed all of his male parts. Now he is much better. Poor guy has been through it.

I remember that I had mentioned at school that my kitty had surgery, but when kids asked what kind of surgery, I did not want to explain. That would have been TMI. Hope I've not given TMI here.

Costume Lady said...

I can well imagine the light flashes at the KALIS HOUSEHOLD:)

Costume Lady said...

Poor George, he probably doesn't know if he is GEORGE OR GEORGETTE!

Mits said...

roflmbo, Wanda, good one:)

Costume Lady said...

Time to make Dustin some breakfast. BBWIC

stronghunter said...

I hope he is not too worried about his macho image.

hedgie said...

New thread! Red rover come over!

movin said...




NEW THREAD

COME ON OVER !!

glo said...

Wanda Yes Margie and I would have a blast together but she doesn't come with near the natural padding I do. I would have to bundle her like crazy to ever take her to the dam :-). I think after I got her layered I owuld put rocks in her pocket before I let her near the river just in case the wind was blowing too hard too. On th eother hand spring over their would feel perfect to me if it was sunny and 60 most likely by the end of my winter. And aren't birds great in the spring. Well except my eagles go home to do their thing and I always miss them.
