Costume Lady said...

On my break and thought I'd check in.
Computer died last evening, actually, it wasn't the computer, it was the Power Surge thingy. Gene went into Best Buy and bought a new one. Woking like a charm now:)

I see Lolly and Jack made it home. I know she can't wait to see those grandboys of hers! Glad their trip was a safe one and hope they come back here, next year:)

stronghunter said...

That's "posted a couple of pictures." Hunter posed. I posted.

stronghunter said...

Hi, Wanda. Thought you would like to see the costume in action.

PA Nana said...

Lynn, that story is just like mine.

Costume Lady said...

Thank for putting that up, Shirley. He looks super-great and a good fit. Did you have to cut the eyes out some more? Looks like he can see very well:)

Costume Lady said...

My break is over.
BBL

PA Nana said...

Wanda, almost forgot. I wanted to tell you that I thought Jayden looks like the little one on the HP commercial where he's riding around in his walker. They are both so cute!!

My new avatar is my grandsons this summer.

Okay, must go now. bbl

paula eagleholic said...

Great pics, Shirley...which reminds me, gotta bring my camera tonight!

Diann, love the pic...think that HP commercial is cute!

stronghunter said...

Diann, trick or treat will be tomorrow night here. Hunter says he does not want to go. He is funny about that.

He and Kathryn are at a county Halloween party now. He didn't really want to do that, either, but Kathryn did.

stronghunter said...

We haven't adjusted anything, Wanda.

paula eagleholic said...

Darn smart eagles...think they know I'm sitting here waiting on them, LOL

paula eagleholic said...

Heard a small clunk and we have and eagle!

paula eagleholic said...

BIG clunk

paula eagleholic said...

BOTH

paula eagleholic said...

Belle in 2nd

paula eagleholic said...

Where's the sticks, guys?

paula eagleholic said...

SOOOOOOOOOO NICE TO SEE OUR PAIR!!

PA Nana said...

EAGLES!!
Just got back on and there they were.

paula eagleholic said...

Lib poking around the back, Belle just looking around

paula eagleholic said...

Belle's gonna poof

paula eagleholic said...

Nope she's still looking around

paula eagleholic said...

There she went.

glad you can see them Diann

paula eagleholic said...

There he went.

PA Nana said...

HI Paula! Poof and follow the leader. both gone :-(

PA Nana said...

So nice to finally see that we still have eagles visiting the nest. I was beginning to wonder.

Now that I saw them I must go and read email. bbl

Have a nice time at the party Paula, see ya later.

wvgal_dana said...

I got an MP3 player how do I download songs onto it? Does anyone know?

wvgal_dana said...

Found out Treat or Trick is tomorrow night here. Someone was sorry they told me wrong. Dang and I wanted to go out and eat tonight if I hadn't go for breakfast.

I haven't had supper yet..:(

paula eagleholic said...

Don't know what kind you have Dana, but if you download them to your computer, then you can probably hook up the MP3 to the computer and transfer them over.

wvgal_dana said...

What site do I get the music from? Is there a free site?

wvgal_dana said...

It is water proof to use for in the pool.

wvgal_dana said...

No ear plugs it is SwiMP3 by Finis

wvgal_dana said...

I probably have to find a way to download music to Windows Media Player. Don't know how you do that. Then can hook in to USB port and transfer to MP3 player. I guess???

paula eagleholic said...

Got a video of tonight's visit, uploading to youtube.

Gotta get ready for the Par-tay!

paula eagleholic said...

Yes, Dana, that's the way.

there is a real cheap place to buy from, let me see if I can find it.

paula eagleholic said...

Here you go, Dana. Very inexpensive

magpie said...

Good Evening Eagle Pals!

I literally checked in on the nest in the nick of time, saw two, then one, then NONE...that quick

Dana -
I vote for the eagle...but I like them all ☺

Diann, sounds great, grandson and Teresa....enjoy some kid fun!

Love the Tombstone Cowboy, Shirley...
I finally remembered that James got The Grim Reaper last year from Countryside Costumes !

Paula....have fun, figure you are already gone by now

and WELCOME LOLLY AND JACK !!

magpie said...

I like that little chap in the rolling baby thing too, AND, I remember when that song came out:
I got a brand new pair of roller skates and you got a brand new key ♪ ♪ ♪

Lolly said...

Hi all! I just want to say thanks for letting me share my trip with you and then for the welcome home. This group is the greatest and I love you all!

We unhitched and headed out for Annie, stopping at the grocery store first. Annie is very happy to be home. She is actually not crying a lot, but she has been purring up a storm. She is shedding like nothing since she has not been petted for a month. Poor baby. She even let me comb her. She is just beautiful, her coat is shiny, her eyes are bright, and she gained 1/2 pound. My Annie is just great!!! Wahoooo!

We bought steaks and we are taking them to Laurel's tomorrow for dinner. Yea! Can hardly wait to see them.

The yard looks fantastic! We have had fall (New England) and now we are back to summer. No color here, most of the leaves are still on the trees. Crazy, huh? Bought a new fall garden flag in New Hampshire and have already put it out with my scarecrow I already had and a pumpkin I bought at the grocery store. We are home! :)

magpie said...

glad to see the Morning and that Lynne2 saw them and got pix.
Paula, too funny, there you were a'waitin' on them tonight and they did not disappoint!

will check your video out...
guess I will find out if it is up yet...

Glad to read that Wanda was okay, just her power surge thingy was kaplooie ! Sometimes my personal power surge thingy goes kaplooie !

okay, file 13'ed (slang for throwing things into a round trash can...) a bunch of stuff at work today, feel I need to do the same here....
Saturday Night Date night with the clutter, oboy fun

ttfn xoxoxo
Best Wishes for a great evening....

magpie said...

Oh, also, I was watching for ISS right after the Eagles flew out...thought I saw it, went for my field glasses, and it had completely disappeared, if it was that in the first place...very unusual....

Dana I would not be very well-behaved with enough candy around for 300 trick or treaters...
Have Fun Tomorrow Night...


Glad to hear that Annie is enjoying being back at HER roost with you and Jack also, Lolly

paula eagleholic said...

Here's the video

No Stick

paula eagleholic said...

Heading out, see ya'll tomorrow. Have a good evening!!

hedgie said...

Bear report is up early. Sure don;t like the way Dave Gervalis "speaks" to Dr. Lynn!!
Bear report

Lolly said...

I am with you, Lynn. Dave Gervalis' email is degrading.

We have had dinner and now watching the Rangers. We actually have the trailer almost empty and I am about to start my 4th load of laundry. Will clean the trailer tomorrow before we head to Laurel's.

stronghunter said...

Thanks for the video, Paula. I missed the visit today. It was good to get an eagle fix.

And thanks for the bear link, Lynn. I didn't know about everything Dave Gervalis was writing about, but I have problems with his tone, to say the least.

Lolly said...

Yes, thanks, Paula for the video. Nice long video!

hedgie said...

Glad you all saw our eagles.

Charlie and Jessie were just here, filling my corn feeder.

Trailer fire, with an injury, and 6 or 7 pit bulls loose, one lost in fire......what a shame. Sure hope that animal control rounds up those poor, scared dogs.

hedgie said...

Shirley, go back to yesterdays' Bear report and read the first installment.....this guy is showing NO respect for Lynn and his many years of research, experience and efforts. Strikes me as a glory hog who thinks that he and he alone is right!

Wish Judie wasn't so inundated with schoolwork-----would like to hear her interpretation. Wonder if the guy is short (Napoleon complex!!)

magpie said...

where was the trailer fire, Lynn?

please and thanks

hedgie said...

Jeremy Dr. off Tomahawk Run, Margy.

hedgie said...

Scary situation back around Carolyns' neck of the woods today, too. 3 squatters attacked owner who tried to enter a "vacant" cabin to ready it for renters with a knife....fled on foot. Not found.

stronghunter said...

I read the other report, Lynn. It's dripping with anger and sarcasm. Not very professional nor scholarly. It speaks for itself. I don't know what the facts are, but the attitude is something else. Defensive. But I don't know why. Something has got his underpants in a twist.

stronghunter said...

That is scary, Lynn. I hope they catch them.

Kathryn went upstairs awhile ago saying she wasn't feeling well. A bit later, Hunter abandoned me. He left me with no remote and a kiddie TV show that involved lots of screaming. I had to get up and retrieve the remote and turn off the TV. I don't need screaming.

Dogs are now peacefully sleeping.

magpie said...

Thanks Lynn...Jeremy Dr, used to be a rather rough hard-scrabble area, not sure if still that way, and yes again, did NOT like that call up off Haymaker Rd I think it was...a bold daytime crime...

This is the Christmas Stealing Season coming up...

stronghunter said...

Screaming TV show is gone. Peace and quiet reigns. Ahhh.

stronghunter said...

"Defensive" was the word of the day with my Block 3 kids. I told one of them not to be so defensive. Then I declared it to be the word they needed to add to their vocabularies. They can be feisty, but I enjoy them.

Mema Jo said...

I am back from Mass, Roy Rogers (yea)
and CVS (candy and cards)

I am headed to watch a taped show with hubby - nothing we like is on TV tonight.

I am interested in knowing what our gal, Paula. wears to her party. If she is going on a broom - it must be a witch. lol

Thanks so much for the video of the visit.

magpie said...

If anyone wants to see Finland Water Nest and Little Boat from earlier today it is on Feathers, Fur & Miscellaneous Link and also I added a few things to Fun & Dandy link a few days ago...from Back Creek/Swinging Bridge...


vocabulary, love it Shirley....
just love learning new words....
learned defensive a loooooooong time ago :) and :(

hedgie said...

Margy, I suspect it is still a rough area back there. Of course, so is Haymaker! I hate the kids being back there. Not a good influence at all, and the schoolbus riders expose the grandgirls to too much stuff.

Hope Kathryn feels better, Shirley. Glad you got your remote back. I can't stand that screaming stuff, either.

I think Dr, Lynn is most conciliatory and acquiescent to the jerk!

Mema Jo said...

Hunter looks very Halloweenish in the costume. Hope he has fun this evening.

Oct. 30th youth shotgun at NCTC
Just in case you hear any shots on live feed. I don't know the hours of
the event - hopefully daylight hours.

BBILW

stronghunter said...

Another pose with the pumpkin. I like this one better.

hedgie said...

Good pics, Margy!

stronghunter said...

I agree. Beautiful pictures, Margy.

wvgal_dana said...

Thanks Margy for the trip to Swinging Bridge.

Oh my Paula I needed that video "eagle fix" thank you so so much !!

Margy that candy would have drove Ed nuts being here. He would have already been testing it to make sure the kids couldn't get "sick" lol Me doesn't bother me a bit. Cake or pie or ice cream is my downfall.

magpie said...

thanks folks...glad you like the pix...
was out there (Sw Br) right after work for a short break...looking for some "heart leaves" - did not have any success, but I saw some of THE largest sycamore leaves I have ever seen...but no good photo opportunities

really like any and all pix of Hunter, Shirley....these are a lot of fun

Dana - uh....cake and ice cream are sort of my weaknesses also ☺

okay back to decluttering here for awhile...making some progress I guess
also doing some cooking
xoxox

stronghunter said...

Very quiet upstairs. I think Kathryn and Hunter were both tired.

stronghunter said...

Thanks for the compliments, Margy. Hunter will appreciate them, too.

stronghunter said...

This is the picture I was looking for. A little closer and I got him to turn the pumpkin around.

stronghunter said...

I don't know when we will ever get decluttered, Margy. I really wish I had finished up that closet cleaning I started on during the summer. I did not know what was about to happen.

stronghunter said...

Kathryn and Hunter picked up some candy today at Target. It looks like they got lots of it. I haven't gone to the store today. We need laundry detergent.

I will need to do some homework tomorrow. I need to do an expanded unit organizer for my professional development session on Monday. I will be working on American Romanticism.

NatureNut said...

Hooray for Rangers. One more out and they'll have it!!Hope Lolly and Jack had enough energy left to watch!!!!Welcome Home---loved your trip!!!
90 more comments since last here! Went to work for a few & got some great deer pics!!! Had dinner and been working on them & some others. Poor 'puter is pooped!!Could it be 'cuz 5 programs were open???? Gotta give it a break.
Haven't read everything,so guess there's no baby yet in Atlanta. Sorry I missed our birds. Thx all for putting pics in album!!!
BBL

stronghunter said...

We went out to walk the dogs this evening and there was a beautiful sunset. Unfortunately, by the time I got into the house and grabbed my camera, the moment was over. It did not last very long.

stronghunter said...

Hi, Loretta!

wvgal_dana said...

Ed never talked much when we went out to eat. So tonight we went to Applebee's. I didn't feel alone like I thought I would have. I felt he was sitting across from me. Ask him the usual questions that I always ask. Seem we both enjoyed ourselves being together.
I didn't want any dessert but Ed seen the choc cake with choc icing and soft choc'leeeee inside with ice cream having hot fudge flowing over it.
One thing I'm am tired of is his winning these darn, not really disagreements. I wanted just one of those little things. HE WON!!! I have a nice dinner left for tomorrow. When I signed the receipt he added it little Ed mark LOL the manager and my waiter really enjoyed our company. Manager said he wished more people would work the lose of a loved one this way. I told him I just couldn't get rid of the guy before dating and I still can't LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOL and I wouldn't want too. WINK!!!

Nighters
Prayers for those that need them
and maybe you better add me in trying to figure out how to get music on that MP3Player.

Lolly said...

Well the Rangers won the game tonight. Wahoo!

Thought I had lost my watch, but just a little while ago found in on the floor behind my seat in the car. Must have just fallen off my wrist. So glad I found it...it was my retirement gift from school, had my name engraved.

TCU does not play until 10 tonight. Boy, I am going to be up late.

Think I will give myself a manicure.

stronghunter said...

About ready to head upstairs for the night. The doggies will hold down the fort.

stronghunter said...

Enjoy the game, Lolly. Ten there is eleven here. I home I am asleep by then.

stronghunter said...

I hope . . .

Lolly said...

Loweeda, thanks for the cheer for the Rangers. The first two games were just so discouraging!

I lasted this long, but I bet I do not last through TCU. Jack is presently watching the STARS. Sports, sports, sports!

Lolly said...

Oh, my, they are coming out with Lily and Hope Christmas cards that are just too cute!

Mema Jo said...

After Mass when we were driving up the mountain, the sky was brilliant with colors - mainly the pink caught my eyes
I too wished I had a camera with me.

Margy the pics are really beautiful..
I love fall colors!

hedgie said...

Hello.....eyes got so heavy reading....sat on sofa and promptly dozed off! Y-A-W-N!!

NatureNut said...

Shirley probably went off to bed, but have to say that is one great looking cowboy you have!!
Puter had a nap, so just went online & didn't see a joyful update from Atlanta yet.
Was able to finish pics, so they will probably be on before dawn. LOL
Just some local fall stuff & deer.
I may konk out after eating my lemon meringue pie. Dana made me do it---speaking of those ice cream brownies! I love your attitude. ☺
So, Pleasant Feather Dreams & Prayers for all ;>)

Costume Lady said...

IT IS FINISHED...for another year.
Did just a little better than last year.

Tired and sleepy...

GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL

hedgie said...

Whoo-Hoo, Wanda!! Congrats on surviving the ghoulies and witches and princesses, etc.!!!! Now you can rest and recoup!!!!!

Well, saying my goodnights, too. Tub is calling my name.....and then the bed will follow suit.

Prayers for all. Another month almost gone. Hard to believe!

Lolly said...

A little better is good, Wanda!

I am looking forward to tomorrow night, as I will be passing out candy at Laurel's house and get to see the boy's in costume.

TCU is ahead! 7 to 0

magpie said...

Wow I missed a few, off to the pillows...I'm not far behind

I agree, the sky at sunset was stunning, the pinks AND the cloud formations, outta sight !

Looking forward to seeing NatureNut's pictures in the morning...

Been great spending time with everyone this evening...

Bravo Wanda and Gene...another year with the Costumes comes to a close...

and Yay, Lolly, finding that watch. I lost a very very special fire department watch 10 years and have not found it...yet ! Special gift from a special person...sigh

Sounds like a nice evening, Dana...good for you, and Ed ♥♥

Prayers for health, and happiness

God Bless Us, Every One
xoxo ♥

Mema Jo said...


The Lions Sleep Tonight


And I think I am about to join them in sleep.

Good Night All
Prayers for All
Hugs for All ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Lolly said...

Game is at half time and TCU is ahead 28 to 6. I have fallen asleep only once. Jack has been sleeping as well. Think I am going to go watch the game in bed. LOL

Night all! Sweet dreams!

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Getting here very late. Hubby & I watched several of the TV programs we had recorded.

Had a very nice day today. Hubby took me to Cheesecake Factory for lunch. Had cream of chicken and vegetable soup, 1/2 of a chicken salad sandwich, a mixed greens salad with vinagrette dressing, and a piece of low carb cheesecake (like a New York cheesecake, but made with Splenda). Boy, talk about yummy! Took half of lunch and all of the cheesecake home, and had them for dinner.

Shirley, love the pictures of Hunter and George! Great costume!

Wanda, glad the costume shop did well this year. That's great!

Lolly, Jack, and Annie, welcome home! There's no place quite like it, is there?!

Paula, thanks so much for the video of Belle and Lib! I appreciate the eagle fix. Sure good to see them again!

Oh, Lolly, SO glad you found your watch! Would hate to see you lose one that has such sentimental value.

Well, gang, it's getting pretty late here. Think I'll call it quits for today. Turning on the night light and the porch light. Prayers have been said for everyone.
The eye-scanner security and Dana's thumbprint-scanner security are enabled. Sleep tight, and I'll talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]
