HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHLEY!!
Are you headed down to help her celebrate, LOlly?
Happy birthday to Ashley from me, too!
Yes, therefor the dessert. She is doing the spa thing today with friends.
She probably will not eat much of the dessert...it's the thought. She really watches what she eats and runs runs runs! She is looking great for 40.
BBL.
Headed to the kitchen!

♪♪♫♪♪ Happy Birthday to an 'original' Momster - Iris - Thinking of you and hope to see you in October
Good Morning Everyone
This weather is sooooooooo nice!
Picnic time at daughter's is today.
It has a dual purpose of a Labor Day celebration and b-day celebration for her hubby! He is 10 years up on Ashley.
40 and 50 are milestones!
Celebrating with fried chicken and crabs.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR IRIS,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!
Happy Birthday to Ashley, too!
Morning all. Cool and breezy--lovely AM.
Shirley, enjoy your long weekend. Think if I was you I'd rather be at work Tues. than in dentist's chair!!
Jo, birthday greetings to your SIL, too. Mmmmmm...crabs!!! Sounds good!
Good Morning to you Hedgie.
Isn't it beautiful outside? I love it.
Had a lethal birdstrike on a sunroom window yesterday evening. Heard the hit...found the body this morning....poor birdie. :(
Yes, Jo. Just fear that the wind is too strong for the Navy parachute team to perform at the airshow. Maybe the wind will die down come late afternoon.
Gotta go down and drag in softener salt. Got it as far as basement door yesterday. Bill said to go ahead and put in one bag and they try resetting the softener....if still making funny noise, then will have to call Sears for service call--yuck!
Good Saturday morning to Everyone in Eagleland.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO IRIS, ASHLEY, & JO'S SIL!!☺ ☺ ☺
75° and windy--nice and cool.Will be keeping a lookout to see if hummers are still here.
We might go to car meet in Balmer this afternoon. Gotta do some stuff~~~BBL
GOOD MORNINIG EVERYONE...
lOVE THIS COOL, BREEZY DAY. 72° and sunny right now...mostly cloudy later, only going up to 75°.
A perfect day for mowing...if...you have any grass to mow, which we don't!
Need to get busy on the costumes in the shop...going to re-vamp some things. Have a good day♥ BBL
♫♪♫♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR DEAR FRIEND, IRIS♫♪♫♪ I wonder if she is at home or in her Florida home?
Do hope she comes again for Open House...she's a fun Lady:)
Lion Cub Cam - FONZ
Turned off AC and opened house.
I got pinched when I lifted the Praying Mantis off the inside deck screen to the outside.
Then I got stunk on by a stink bug!
They are really trying to invade my house by way of a screen door - the never ending battle has begun and I am not happy about it.........
Salt is in....and stupid machine still is jsut humming at me with a weird error code that isn't even in the manual! ARGH!
Nope, Wanda---nothing left to mow here, either!
Ouch and pew, Jo!!! Stay away from the door!
9 eagle sightings in one hour at Hawk Mountain!!!
I have a few things to accomplish
I'll be back before leaving for the
picnic
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A Good Saturday
Morning tO You aLL.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hi, Jim! What are you doing this weekend? BBQ at your sisters?
For any who mentioned Iris coming for Open House----she is on the YES list!! Her cousin Barb from Harpers' Ferry, too.
Yeah, Hedgie. That's the usual plan...we have a good confab AND some of the best Bar-B-Q you'll ever taste.
How about you?
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
I hear eagle calls!
Glad you heard eagle calls. While working in the yard I have been hearing more red shouldered hawks calling...I mean a lot! Love it!
Well, we are headed to Denton.
BBL Have to say GO FROGS! Their first game is this evening at Jerry World!!(Cowboy Stadium) Wanted to go but tickets were too expensive for me!
Bye!
Jim, nothing special here.....eldest has to work; youngest will be at in-laws.
Paula, you were in the right spot at the right time!!!
Okay, Lolly, I'll say GO FROGS, too!! But also need to say GO 'EERS for all of my WV friends!
Did Jack carve a big EAGLE head, Lolly???
It's an armadillo cockoo clock to hang on the wall!
I am out the door......... I am so hungry...... Take Care.......
BBL
Quick visit.
Happy Birthday to Iris, Ashley, and Jo's SIL.
Jo, sorry about the pinch and stink. Sure hope eating crabs makes up for it.
Hi Jim, hope you enjoy the bbq.
Hard to believe it's time for Wanda, and Gene, to begin thinking about costumes. Seems like just a week or two ago the season was over. Any holiday plans with GG?
Hi Lowreeda. Enjoy the car meet, if you go. Nice weather for it.
Shirley, at least once you finish with the dentist you will have mostly a day off.
Lynn, I take it the water softener is trying to be sick. Hope it will heal itself without a service call.
BBL
Holiday plans with GG? I guess you mean Labor Day and not Halloween!
Yes, we will spend the afternoon with her probably cook out on the grill and maybe look at some more of her old photos...can't believe she has some that I have never seen!
Happy Birthday also, to Ashley and Jo's SIL...lots of B'Days this month:)
Have fun, Jo!!
Judie, are you and Darth doing anything special this weekend?
Wanda, SO glad that you are going through pics with GG now; hope she can ID them all for you....label them!!
All I can say is that when they critique this air show.......there is going to be LOTS of criticism. The stuff I've been hearing on the scanner borders on criminal negligence on the part of many.
Things are happening on our cam.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY IRIS
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU (:
Lynn it must be softner machine problem day. You make the 2nd person having a problem with their Sears Water Softner.
Happy Birthday to Ashley and Jo's SIL.
Hummers have had a rough time of it today due to the wind.
Happy Birthday Iris!!
Home, now heading out to a cookout...catch ya'll later!
And Happy Birthday to Jo's SIL, too!
Dana, this is the 3rd service call I've had to make on this one.
No hummer action here today!
Back from the library and grocery store. I picked up a prescription at the grocery store pharmacy. It seems like those pills get more expensive every time I get them.
One month's supply would be $929.99 but for insurance. I paid $64.67. That's just one prescription. The other one is expensive, too. I really have to make sure that I have insurance of some kind.
Hi everyone! Just a quick check-in to send birthday wishes to Ashley, Iris and Jo's SIL. What a great day to have a birthday, the weather is perfect and I'm loving this.
Just an update on my BIL,Charlie. He is now home,on 2 antibiotics and in severe pain. Keep the prayers going. He still has another surgery to go when he's over this infection.
Did you all see the panda twin cubs born in Japan. So cute!
It's supper time. bbl
Keeping those prayers going for Charlie Diann.
Hi Shirley and Diann!
Yes, it is a lovely day!
Medicine costs are outrageous, and it is all about corporate greed! Shirley, when you start shopping for a Part D program, choose very carefully! And the inane "donut-hole" will not disappear until 2019! What kind of reform is that??
Diann, any idea how long it will be before they take Charlie back to surgery? Prayers continue, of course, girlfriend!
Lynn, I may be going to Part B very soon. I do not want to have to accept the insurance plan from my employer if I don't have to. It's an HMO that will require me to change doctors.
The insurance Kathryn has right now is an HMO and it is giving her fits.
Every prescription she has taken in has been rejected until they can decide whether or not it is justified or if there is a generic. She has had to self-pay so the can get the medicines she needs. She is supposed to have physical therapy for the shoulder pain, but they have stalled on that, too. This is after she waited three months for the policy to take effect.
I know I've complained about this before. Sorry.
Tom has a very important medication and cannot take the generic. They are dreading what will happen with that one.
Wanda, I meant Labor Day. Maybe you can get GG to dress up as a sweet grandmama for halloween?
Shirley, sorry about the medications and expense. Hoping Kathryn and Tom can get things worked out, also.
Nothing special for us for the long weekend. Just relaxation. I have been watching a mom and dad cardinal feeding a baby. I am surprised as I thought the babies were all born in the Spring. Fun to watch. Coloring suggests maybe a baby female.
Lynn, what happened at the air show? What criminal negligence?
Hi Diann. Still sending prayers for Charlie.
Hi Dana.
Off to put my feet up and check out t.v. BBL
Hi Judie,
I am planning a quiet weekend, too.
Shirley, open enrollment for D starts in Nov., I believe.
As for Tom's med....Dr. should write letter explaining why he can't use the generic form and send it in. If that doesn't work...check with drug manufacturer for their cost-assistance program.
Judie---things like: because road was shut down and residents were "evacuated" for the day, they denied a man with a prosthetic leg the right to go home to get needed medication; all traffic on one road was changed to ONE WAY, but somehow two-way traffic got through and there were many head-on near-misses; attendees were left standing waiting for shuttle buses for so long---without water (no one was allowed to bring in any beverage) that some were getting faint---medics had to be called; alleged injured couldn't be located. Those are the highlights. Lots of lowlight SNAFU's as well.
Back briefly. Lynn, Charlie will have his next surgery when the infection is cleared up. don't know how long the medicated apparatus lasts but he'll have to have a regular hip replacement then.
Shirley, I feel for you and the cost of medications. Charlie's first prescription for antibiotic to go home was $995. Of course, Judy's ins. didn't cover it so they had to go with the $298 one. She didn't say if it was the generic or what. I almost fell off my chair when she told me.
My doctor had to write a letter to Jim's carrier for one of my meds when the generic just wouldn't do and maybe your doctor will do the same for you. Maybe we should all buy stock in these pharmaceutical companies? Someone is making a haul!
Had Jim turn the old furnace on and hope it doesn't cough. It's old and not working efficiently but still praying it lasts until we get a new one. It sure got cooler. Loving it!
If I don't get back later everyone have a good evening and restful night.
God bless
Medicare part D is terrific...
I do have to pay a monthly premium of $30-35 but my meds are very reasonable. For instance, I take a pill, once a day, that costs $400.47 for a three month supply, I only pay $56.85...that is for 3 months! I take others that are equally as costly but reasonable for me.
Here's a blast from the past for most of us: I'm watching The Graduate!! Love those Simon & Garfunkle songs!!
Picnic turned out very well -good food and so many many family members of our daughter's and her hubby's. Crabs were of a good size and had great seasoning from Mays - Rt 355. Fried chicken and so many side dishes.
Butterflies and hummers were making a show! GS brought the banjo. Sparkles came out after dark.
Great Time! So thankful to have been a part of it.
Evening Everyone. Worked (had fun) outside fooling w/flowers, watering, etc. & counting butterflies. 7 tiger swallowtails together on butterfly bush!One little cutie snowberry clearwing moth has been on the lantana for 3 days. Looks like a tiny hummer. I had to take some pics, of course, even tho I have some older ones.
Fubby dozed in front of TV in afternoon, so I popped my corned beef in pot to simmer. (We did not go to Balmer)I cook my cabbage & taters in the meat water after beef is done. It goes in low oven w/mustard & brown sugar topping for about 1/2 hour.
Been watching the car race which is done!!Tomorrow night is the big Nascar race. Now I'm trying to make some space for a little choc. moose tracks ice cream!!
Going to watch an hour TV show and then
head for bed.
BBILW
Prayers for Diann's BIL. What an awful ordeal.
Re:Drug costs~~our insurance pays some, but we are getting some of the more expensive ones from Medco~~~mail order. They won't charge over $65--that includes 90 day supply I believe.Fubby had Dr. call them & give Rx.
Lynn, I believe they said November, but I will be able to enroll before then as a first-timer. Otherwise, I would not be able to enroll without going without coverage for a month. I hope I won't have to do that. It is already into September.
I am going to head upstairs. I've spent most of the day grading papers. I had a huge pile of them.
See you tomorrow. Good night all.
Speaking of Clearwing Moths, my girls were sitting by Denise's pool
having a glass of wine when they spotted a beauty. Denise snapped a picture of it and I have posted the picture on my Just For Fun.
I love those little critters.
My comments were rejected by the error message. This has been happening way too often in the past week or so. Too tired to re-write.
Glad for those who had a nice day. Sad about the issues with medications and cost. Wish it were otherwise.
Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson...
Turning my light off but will leave the night light on for others coming in, headed back the hallway, down to the tub, up to the shower, or simply headed for the pillow feathers.
I am going to call it quits earlier than usual. All the outside cool air has done me in.
Good Night All
Prayers for all of you and your families and friends...
Hugs for all.... ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Bear update:
Safe Bears
Goodnight to all turning in. Glad everyone had such a good day!
Talking to Chris....only 4 people from lab showed up at her goodbye dinner....:(
Hurts her....got to sympathize....no gift, tho' they did pay for her dinner.
Will see you all tomorrow. Prayers for all.
mUSTA had some fun doings today from the commentary. Enjoy the rest of the weekend to the max.

...Y-a-w-n!...Hi, Everyone!
Getting here pretty late again--we were over at SIL & BIL's house, taking care of the bulldogs. Ate dinner there, and then watched some TV. It was a few degrees cooler there today, and it's supposed to cool down more tomorrow.
Sorry this wish is belated now (it's SO late!), but HAPPY BIRTHDAY to IRIS, ASHLEY, AND JO'S SIL!!!
Went shopping today and got some new clothes for our GG-daughter, Sierra. Gotta mail them to her on Tuesday.
Watched a new William Shatner show that we'd recorded. Think it's called 'Aftermath'. Very, very interesting! This one was about three of the victims of the DC sniper shootings. Judie, you'd like this show, for sure!
Well, getting very tired, so am leaving the porch light on. Judie, thanks for turning on the night light. Prayers are said for everyone--especially for Charlie.
The eye-scanner security and Dana's thumbprint-scanner security are both enabled. Sleep well and soundly, everyone! Talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight.
Love all of you! :o]
We are home. Had a fantastic dinner at Laurel's. Joey had an aunt and uncle visiting, so we had 8 adults and the boys.
Jacob's birthday is Wednesday and took him his Batman Costume as he wants to wear it for his party next Saturday. He went to bed with the hood. LOL
Tomorrow church and then Dallas. Every one will be there except Joseph who is going to a slumber party.
How did you guess? An armadillo cuckoo clock, that cuckoos in English and can be used as a toilet tissue holder! I never thought you would get it with the clues I gave you. Wow, you are so sharp!!
TCU won! Go Frogs! And, thank you, Lynn, for your Go Frogs.
Nite all! Sweet dreams!
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE...
IT'S GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL DAY!50° and sunny right now, going up to only 78°. My kind of day:)
Going to GG's after church and try to talk her into going over to Berryville Moose to watch Dustin play in a Poole Tournament. If not, we will do something on the grill.
Morning, all!
Nice cool crisp night and morning. It felt good to sleep under the covers with the fresh air.
Went to Ajay's parents last night for an engagement party. Her younger brother is getting married in 2 weeks. He is in the Navy, stationed in Norfolk. He will be going to Cuba in February. We sat around the fire pit and played "The Newlywed Game"...remember that one? (I didn't play) Had a lot of good laughs!
Good Morning in Eagle Land to All.
Wanda do you really think GG will want to go? Would be nice (:
When I was typing I heard this noise on our live feed. Chattering...I guess it is some kind of bird. I also heard it yesterday. Would love to see it.
Don't sound like the squirrels.
Shirley sorry about Kathryn and Tom's Medical Insurance including the cost of what is not generic and even then they put restrictions on them too. I will add that to prayers.
Believe me I am there too. Big
surprise when they lowered our Insurance Oct.1, 2009 with all these deductibles. Higher prices for drugs. Plus the cost of test until you reach $1500.00 for the year.grrrrrrrr
Judie I also would think that all baby birds would have been born and that step all over.
Neat and exciting to watch and guess it is a baby female. Cute and Enjoy the GIFT (:
Please Diann make sure that furnace is NOT putting out carbon dioxide. We brought a house
in Fells Point in Baltimore. Nice but when they came to check furnace it got condemned.
Good SUNDAY morning, even tho' it takes a few clicks to get here.
Anyone familiar with this site? I'm sure Lowreeda is!
Patuxent Bird ID Infocenter
Hmmmmm...off to a good start at airshow....another "lost" patient......who woulda thunk that medics would have to play detective?
I have Finland on the water up Saak. and no hoodie no oprey. Nothing in site. Will wait awhile to see if I see a cruise ship.
No osprey at Finland land nest.
We have an Osprey at BWO. Placing a stick.
How about this sunny Sunday Morning -
Really feels good!
Hedgie that site is new to me - quite elaborate.
I truly wish that certain boundaries could be set as off limits for the bear hunters.. Realistically I know we could lose a research bear and that is going to be heartbreaking.
Jo, I just don't understand why they don't make it illegal to kill a collared bear.....sure seems simple enough to me. The bit in the update about some encroaching hunter and the research cam disturbed me greatly.
Thanks, Lynn, don't recall that Patuxent page. I know you can send them emails about tagged birds, too.
Going over to FB -seems like my speedy Daughter already has pics up of her hubby's b-day get together..
I don't like looking at pics of myself I more so don't like videos of myself
But what is that saying we all know
It is what it is
New thread. Y'all come on over.
Thank you, Steve.
Good Sunday Morning!!
It is 70° here!!! We did have hummers yesterday, haven't really checked yet.
BTW, put pics of the flutterbies I saw yesterday on blog. I think Wanda's is maybe called a Hummingbird Moth, but doesn't look like a clearwing---same Sphinx moth family. They are so pretty--think I collected one during high school and the books only gave a scientific name back then--no common!
Lynn, have used that bird site in the past---that's Federal Govt. up in Laurel. I've been using Cornell lately, but looks like they've upgraded Pax.
Well, need more coffee, then should shove off to office for a couple hours.
Just saw 2 of the hummers thru kitchen window. The "bad boy" sat in tree and actually let a female sit and sip before chasing her away this time!
Clunk clunk!
Got a new note from June, Karen's friend:
Hi Lynn,
Thanks for your concern. Karen's thrush is finally gone, thank God! She
has some good days and some not so good. We finally got her mom in an
assisted Living facility. It's a very nice place and I think she's finally settled
down. She was trying to escape!
Karen only had 1 round of chemo, she decided after being so sick from it
that she wanted some quality time. I think she made the right decision, the
chemo really knocked her down.
I'm hanging in there, I just want to make sure she has good days and I cherish
every second of time with her!
Thanks Lynn for the prayers and to the momsters, we need them and they do help!
hugs back to you all!
June
