«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 531 of 531Hold on to your mittens, cats and kittens....we are about to SPILT!
oops, here I am!
Split time!
Split time!
Hi Lynne! That was fun.
Made me stutter.
Pain pills got you stuttering Shirley? LOL!
Hope they are making your poor nose feel better. Don't even want to think about how that must have hurt :(
I think this means we have WAX!
Pain pills are making me mellow.
Yeah, wax and a split.
don't know why but I turned on the cam....poor Ed, they need to retire him and bring back the fun singing animals again! I can just barely see the nest, looks like no one has been there since I left this afternoon.
I did not know what they were going to do when I went in, but they needed to take action today because it has already been more than a week.
He said that I also have a deviated septum, and he thinks that's a result of the accident, too. I see him again on Thursday.
Yeah, that Ed just does not learn how to take care of his boat.
does he think you'll need surgery for that Shirley?
Sad news:
Panda death
When the pain meds wear off, I'll trim George's claws. Don't think I want to do that right now, though.
As someone said earlier, it gets unpleasant if you cut into the quick.
I do not know about surgery yet.
So sad about that panda.
This was posted early on Brandon's CaringBridge page. Please hold this family up in your prayers, bless their hearts!!
Brandon made a major turn for the worse early this morning. We were faced with a decision regarding intubating him. Partially based upon Brandon telling one of his docs that he is not a quitter, we made the decision to go forward with the intubation.
Before he was intubated, he was able to spend time with each family member and his friends who were here telling them he loved them and asking us to take care of each other. We will post more later on this wonderful time.
We have made the decision that the intubation will only be on a short term basis and if there are no signs of improvement, we will make the decision to stop the intubation.
Our prayers now are for a miracle, and if not God's will; wisdom, peace, & grace and ask you to join us in them.
Lynne, I watched it get dark at the cam. No sign of eagles or eagle footprints.
Right before I left to go babysitting, I heard the RS hawk outside so I ran out to look. First thing I saw was a smaller hawk in the tree where the eagle was....and then off to the right there were THREE RS hawks, just raising hell! Ran back in to get cam, GONE. I think I got a picture of the smaller one, and one RS, but will have to check later.
oh how sad about Brandon....prayers continue.
Prayers for Brandon and his family.
Yes, very sad about the panda.
Oh, Sissy, that is very sad.....Brandon has fought the good fight. Prayers for a peaceful transition, and for the family.
Shirley....did the dr. numb your nose with the cocaine spray??????Can't imagine going through that without..........awful. I am hurting for you...
Lynn Much better luck at the dam today. glad that I went. Well I figured you wouldn't cover her face but ya know they blindfold eagles and they go to sleep and they blindfold horses to get them out of a fire so I thought I better be specific just in case. I want it to help you and Mai. Good Luck and let me know how it works in a message. Chances of me finding it on here after tonight are slim. I will check in some but it could be few and far between and I won't have time to read all the in between messages.
Glo, don't think I will do anymore tonight. Lighting not the greatest, plus I am slam wore out, as Sissy says! Mai seems to be, too. Don't know how much she slept in crate while I was gone....left her with a kong with pieces of kibble dipped in peanut butter--frozen--as Lynne suggested. Should have kept her well occupied, plus good for teething!
I had a very busy day with Christine & family - the girls are just beautiful in their looks but more so in their actions.
I am very touched by the news of little Brandon. Prayers for him to miraculously to be healed and for his family to have faith.
I was sorry to read about the young panda - he was only 4 yrs old... Too young to pass -- too soon.
It was already dark when I returned home - cam was black. I realize no one today sighted our eagles......
Total Lunar Eclipse this week!
He numbed my nose with some kind of spray and some cloth things that had threads attached, but it hurt when he pushed them in. I felt like he was pushing them all the way to my brain.
It was still painful.
He said that he usually sends people home with some Valium and does the job the next day, but there wasn't time. He did ask when I had called--think he was trying to evaluate whether the staff had given me the appointment as quickly as they should have.
Maybe I should have pushed for an earlier appointment, but that part is over now.
Lunar eclipse--when? Although I am not sure I will brave the cold. Maybe look out the window.
Going to catch a TV movie
Waking the Dead - About cold cases
on chn #268 8-10...
BBL
Jo, so glad you are having such a good time with the family!
Sure hope Mai enjoyed her treat Lynn!
Hello everyone,
Tried to do a quick check of most recent posts but need to catch up more tomorrow.
Shirley, I hope what was done worked and Lynn, hope what was done for Mai worked. Sent a message to Bev.
Very, very tired all day today after seeing surgeon. Infection continues.
Sent Darth to Kennedy Center to see South Pacific with a friend of ours.
Headed for bed early tonight. Pleasant dreams everyone. The night light is on.
Night-night, Judie. Sticking with the same antibiotic??? Rest well.
I'm sure Darth will enjoy his evening out. Hope he fixed you ice cream before he left!
Shirley, really too bad he couldn't have given you the valium and let it take effect before he did anything. Grrrr.
Thanks for eclipse info, Lynne!
Lynne, thank you for the article on the eclipse. I had forgotten the date.
Shirley hope you are feeling better.
Yeah, I was willing to accept any drugs he might have offered.
Judie, I hope you get rid of that infection very soon. You've been through enough, already.
Yo Steve we need a weekend thread!
Ouch, Shirley, but I'm sure you're glad it's over and done with. The surgery for the septum isn't fun, either. John had it done, but he was very happy he did. He can breath through his nose so much better!
Did the grocery store on the way home, have everything for Christmas dinner...except rolls and dessert. Not sure if I want to do yeast rolls or something easier, and trying to think of something different for dessert.
Never knew pandas could get epilepsy.
Holiday Affair is on TCM but cannot remember who brought it to our attention.
That would be Lynne2, hope she's watching it!
I'm recording it, Suzan. Afraid I would fall asleep if I tried to watch it now. I think it was either Lynne or Diann who told us.
Paula, there are yeast rolls in a pan in the freezer case that Christie uses a lot and says they are the best....I can't remember the brand, tho'. Tried to call her and she's not home. She uses them to make pepperoni rolls, too.
OH NO I FORGOT!!!!!
Paula......Rhode's Dinner Rolls. Orange and clear bag.
Just posted a bunch of pics on my blog...Birds, last Sat tree cutting and Soldier's Delight hike.
I just cannot believe I forgot the dang movie.....WAA WAA WAA
the moon is so very bright tonight that I can still see the nest!
Off to shower...
Chocolate pudding for dessert. Maybe layered with a whipped topping with cherries in it or strawberries.
Ooooh. How about layering with a peanut butter confection? : D
Hello Folks.
If the eagles show up on the nest, the snow will help silhouette them. I can see the nest partially where the snow is.
Rhodes has very good stuff.
Great Shirley! Your nose is fixed!
Next time drink about 5 margueritas!
I missed Holiday Affair too. Dag naggit.
Watching Miracle on 34th Street. TCM
It's hard to take the news of Branden.
Earnest prayer will continue.
Thanks for the tips on the Rhodes rolls, will have to check out store in Frederick, doubt that Jubilee has them.
LOL, Shirley wouldn't be feeling any pain after 5 marguaritas!
I still may do my own, though. It's kind of a tradition that my Mom started ♥ I might catch he__ if I don't, LOL
Buttermilk Salad is easy and a refreshing dessert type dish.
Oh. Tradition rules at times.
Right O.
My kids used to help roll them up....they were yeast rolls, but we used to do them in crescents.
Buttermilk salad?
Me, too: Buttermilk salad????
Hi, BEagle! Did you have to work today? How much snow did you all get?
My Grandma's rolls are yeast rolls, but they are done with butter, cinnamon and brown sugar. They are Christmas breakfast! I still make them every year from scratch. Christie helps me most of the time.....but I'll be doing it on my own this year. :(
This is what i found for it
Ingredients:Servings:
6
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, do not drain
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
1 cup buttermilk
8 ounces Cool Whip
Change Measurements: US | Metric
Directions:Prep Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 4 1/4 hrs
1 Heat undrained pineapple and jello in a saucepan till jello is dissolved.
2 Mix in buttermilk and Cool Whip.
3 Pour into mold or bowl.
4 Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Comments on the recipe were to try it with different flavors of jello and different fruits.
Lime jello (or any kind you prefer)
(6oz)
Crushed Pineapple (20oz)
Buttermilk (2C)
One of those frozen bowls of whipped topping. (8oz)
Bring crushed pineapple to a boil and then stir in jello till all dissolves. Refrigerate till it begins to set (about an hour).
Add two cups buttermilk. Refrigerate till thickens.
Fold in the topping.
You can throw in some meaty nuts too.
That's it. Pretty simple.
The method on the one I shared worked better for me.
You cannot go wrong with this salad.
Thanks for sharing the pics, Lynne.
Comments there!
Oops, almost forgot:
Happy Birthday to Margy's James!!!
sounds nice and light
♫♫ Happy Birthday James!! ♫♫
There's been a sprinkling of frosty dew about all day. We returned to work as usual this morning. I worked until my son called and I went to pick him up shortly after lunch.
We stopped and had a meat-eaters pizza at Bellacini's for dinner. I feel very heavy right now. : D
Happy Birthday Master James!!
Recipe sounds very good!!
Used to always make a black cherry jello w/ black cherries salad, but no one will eat it but me, so don't bother anymore. Grandma always made it, too. I also like carrott salad, but it's another one that no one else likes. Weird kids!
It was a FIVE STINKBUG shower....one on the ceiling, one on the floor, one on the sink, one in the tub and one on the mini blinds. REALLY????
Happy Birthday James!! Hope the gang is having fun visiting!
My mother used to make lime jello with pineapple chunks, carrots, and pecans.
That's about as fruity as I can get with it. There's always room for jello.
I still have yet to do the lemon pie that Shirley shared.
I really like carrot salad too.
I knocked a stink-o bug-o off my Christmas cactus!
Ho Ho Ho! While at Park luncheon today (lots of food!), a beautiful juvenile eagle sat in tree outside Vis. Ctr. It had a variety of colored markings, almost uniform, like large tweed! I'll take camera tomorrow!
I was checking the past couple years' eagle photos & in '09, there was one in nest on 11-21.Of course that's the only pic I got. This year I've seen birds twice at the nest in Nov. & Dec., but nothing much going on there lately, that I've seen. Looks like nest is larger, tho.
Got home & did lights & huge wreath in picture window. I alternate years w/it and manger scene.
Gotta eat something soon & check laundry.
BTW, Fubby ordered some Xmas items from someone named "Peggy"!!!!He doesn't know if it's the outsource guy on TV ad named "Peggy"!!They sound like they are in Eastern Europe or Russia. Today F got an email from Peggy saying order should arrive by Xmas. ROFLMBO!!!
Happy Birthday James!!!!!
I like Waldorf Salad.
Hi, Everyone,
Well, got the various errands done. It was NOT fun driving around out there--people here are just plain nuts! They are driving like absolute maniacs! Glad I got the last box of gifts off to the kids today. It should get there either Tuesday or Wednesday.
Thank God, our oldest car passed the smog test! It has 218,000 miles on it. We were really praying about that one.
I'm really upset that nobody has seen our eagles, and not anyone at NCTC either, I guess. Where can they be?!
Hope the night cam is working soon. Maybe they come to the nest at night, when no one can see them.
Well, need to go spend some time with Hubby and Emma. Sissy, prayers continue from this roost for Brandon and his family and friends. Hoping for a miracle.
Gosh, Lynn, that Kong treat sounds really good! Will have to look for that peanut butter in a squeeze tube.
I was just looking at Emma tonight, and realized that she's completely outgrown 2 of her 3 winter coats! The one she's wearing now is getting too short to cover her whole back, too. Wow, forgot how FAST they grow!
The first one we got her, a fleece hoodie, looks like it MIGHT fit a Chihuahua puppy, it's so small!
I've been feeding her a slightly larger portion at each meal. She's the type that if she's full, she just leaves the rest, and will go back to finish it later.
I am not much of a cook. I tried chocolate fudge and had to chisel it out of the pan with a small hammer and screwdriver. I tried again and it came out like wet chocolate sand.
I sort of gave up on baked goods after that.
Ooooh, Shirley,
I sure don't envy you, considering the torture the doctor put you through today! Prayers that the pain goes away pronto! Hope your nose is as good as new. Has George been taking really good care of you? Bet he has been. Somehow they just know when you aren't feeling 100%.
Our friend Andrea in Nevada sent us a picture message today. They got quite a bit of snow, and she took a picture of her front yard. It looked like a big bowl of sugar. The high there today was only 39. No wonder Emma doesn't mind rain at all! No big deal!
Oops! Please excuse my manners!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MARGY'S JAMES!!!!
Hope it's been a spectacular day for you!
NatureN..it is so good to hear you talk about the eagles.
So glad we don't have those smog test things here. I had to do those in Nashville.
Well, gonna go spend some time with Hubby and Emma. Am going to turn on the porch light and the Christmas lights. Judie, thanks for turning on the night light.
Have said prayers for everyone. The eye-scanner security and Dana's thumbprint-scanner security are enabled. Wrap up in those flannel sheets and electric blankets, folks, an sleep well. I'll talk to you tomorrow. God bless, and goodnight!
Love all of you! :o]
The Victoria/Sidney nest is really swaying in the wind. It can be seen through the spidey's lattice work.
The BWE cam went down and will be replaced this week according to the web site.
I enjoyed the movie - now to pick up what I didn't do earlier today.
Love your food talk!
Loved your pics Lynne.
♪♪♫♪♪ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, JAMES
♪♪♫♪♪ Have a great year ahead!
Good Night Everyone
I have had a busy day and need to find those pillows.......
Prayers for all in need
Hugs for Everyone..... ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Loved your pictures Lynne. But a picture of a stink bug? Whoa!
It's time to go back to my crochet for a bit before bedtime.
Goodnight.
Prayers for you.
♥
Beagle, just the name Bellacini's makes it sound deliciously filling and fattening!
Oh my, you all have been chatty since I was last here. Will has been setting up my iPhone and showing me the various features. I think I will enjoy it.
I'm very sleepy and tired. I will see you tomorrow. Good night all.
Happy birthday, James. Bless you!
I love Waldorf salad, too, Suzan.....made with peanuts, not walnuts!
SB's MUST die out soon. I found one yesterday again.
Sleep well, Shirley.
Kathryn had a stinkbug somewhere in her room on Wednesday night. We do not know where it went.
Hunter freaked out because he thought it was a wasp. I wasn't here to see all of the excitement.
Good night.
Thanks, Paula.
Andy, I was just marveling today at how much Mai has grown in 2 weeks----mostly in height!!! Her sweater still fits---it was a bit baggy before.
I am totally worn out, too, gang. Don't think I will last much longer. Dozed off twice on sofa.
Flannel sheets and electric blanket for sure, Andy! Can't wait to snuggle in.
Everyone sleep well. Heal!!! Just a reminder----love you all!
G'night Shirl...feel good in the AM! G'night Lynn!
BEagle, yeah, just had to throw the stinkbug in!
Managed to catch Miracle on 34th St but HOLY MAMA the commercials are at least three times as loud as the movie! I don't think i'm going to make it to the end though...
So I'll say my goodnights now, and prayers for all!
Just dropping in to say Hi ( : and that it has been a "full day for me".
Picked up rental, got a yummy smoffin (muffin, egg and bacon) from Sheetz. I like it better that McDonald's.
Came home here PARKED MY CAR. In house we three looked and laughed at pictures. Daughter even helped me find pictures I have been looking for. They were right in front of my face. Although the album was on the BIG bookcase where pictures in frames and many things set. She did find a picture of the hat that Daddy wore when we 1st got together. That made us both happy.
Told care of Little Man.
Left and they took me so I could show them the wonderful EAGLES NEST OF THE HOME OF LIBERTY AND BELLE. Top of tree up high is there where Belle and Liberty sit. It truly is still a beautiful tree. The guard did say he has seen both of the eagles. I said to him, "well normaly at this time they are already fixed and fixing that nest up. Coming in and out many, many times a day". He said, "Well maybe those birds know something we don't and it is best they wait and they won't have such a hard egg laying winter". I sure hope and daughter is along with us praying that Liberty and Belle come back to the nest. They ask me many questions about the nest. So my daughter said Mom you are great at telling things like a story. So tell us the story of the nest, eagles, eaglets and the Momsters and Dadsters. They were in awww over some of the things they learn't and both was excited about how the parents care for the eaglets. ( : Also how the eagles care for each other too. ( :
She is coming sometimes tomorrow to help set up camera. Try to get the MP3 Player working for when I can start at the pool.
Prayers and good night my friends.
Went to Best Buy in Martinsburg and daughter helped me with buying a camera and things I needed for it. No Gene I did not get the one you have. Brought items home and she set some things up while I fed Little Man. We did some clowning around and much laughter her, boyfriend and myself.
Then I think it was getting near 8:30 or 9 PM we when to Ruby Tuesdays. LOBSTER yummy !!!!.
By that time I was more than pooped.
I have not caughter up on comments. I am sorry for that because I worry how everyone is doing health wise.
Prayers for those that need them with health problems, and any other type of troubles. Safe driving prayers for Glo and possibly others.
Glad you had such a great day Dana! And glad to know that the eagles were seen by the guard.
Oh, Lynn....I don't know how to answer directly from blog comments, but the track piece there I believe may be original but repaired often over the years.
Regarding Steve's beard...he grows one every winter. In that picture, it's just about a week old. It grows FAST! He had one when we got married. Then he shaves it off in March or April. There are pics on FB of the wedding, and WOW, it's a lot whiter now!!
stinkbug on a Christmas cactus? Oh, that's just so wrong....
GOOD NIGHT!!
Dana, sounds like a wonderful day. Glad you went to NCTC, good report from the guard. So nice of your daughter to help you out with all the new technology. And dinner sounded great! Don't worry about trying to keep up here, we'll let you know what's happening!
Waiting for the last load to come out of the dryer, then headed to bed.
Dana, glad you found a camera that you like. Hope it works well for you!
Family Friday was another fun evening. Jayden does not sit still for a minute...he loves to go from one end of the house to the other:)
Sleepy time here...
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
SLEEP WELL
PRAYERS FOR ALL
Sneaking on really quick, no time to read the blog. Having a great time. All are in bed except me and I am headed that way. So, great, just the six of us exchanging gifts and talking talking talking. Kids come tomorrow.
Nite all1 Sweet dreams!
Good Morning, my warm, loving and precious Eagle Pals
I want to thank all of you for your Birthday Greetings for my grandson, James, who turned 11 yesterday. I will show him the blog comments addressed to him, when next he visits.
Our little small party was a hit, very loving and fun time, but afterwards, he, his father, mother and grandfather, headed back to Berkeley Springs, and shortly thereafter, Mom and Grandpa had to start on their Southward trek to Florida....so a happy time to be followed by a sad, emotional farewell....his time with his mother and grandfather was good....
I ask for your prayers for safe travel, and comfort of the heart for James and the also.
I have tried every which way to open the Still nest cam and find
No internet connection...I think I can get into the "Life Feed" and will try that shortly.
Had to come to the Blog through the Momsters link off the E-M page.
Dana
you are surely experiencing Chrismas!
Your reports are lovely and I am so very happy for you !!
(( VERY LARGE HUGS ♥ ))
Lynne
Thank you for the Lunar Eclipse alert !!!
Hope the skies will be clear....I will take a Panda Nap after work and hope to view some of it...I can dress for cold weather !
I stayed outside almost the entire time for the February 2008 eclipse...it was spectacular, skies were perfectly clear !
I work 12 hours today, but hope to start working on Christmas cards tonight after work ☺
I have done a little Christmas decorating here...including the miniature room box...It is on
Magpie's Roost link...
lots of little things in there to see
I have the Live Feed up, don't hear any sound and don't see any signs of action....
and it slows down my blogging...
perhaps the FWS sites are down...could be a Denver thing...
sure hope we get a New Thread soon !!!
I have read all the comments....would love to address each and every one....
but time runs short....so please know:
I Care !
Best wishes and prayers for good things today for each of you and your families today
Have to step aside now, get ready for work...
God Bless Us, Every One
xoxoxoxo ☺ ♥
I am totally LOST-----I showed a post from Loretta at about 11:50 last night announcing a new thread......nothing else until I posted w/ a good morning message.......never found a new thread and those posts are not to be found....and Margy's posts are here for this am. CONFUSING! Anyone else??
Dana, sounds like you are having loads of fun! Keep it up!
Margy, glad the party was a fun one! 12 hrs....ugh!
Wanda, was the bag still pn GG's porch? See that she had started to shovel, AND walked out to mailbox......you need to get on her about that!!!!
I think the servers are down in Denver, I can't get into any FWS site. They often do maintenance at quiet times around the holidays.
Hi Folks.
Come on over to the new THREAD.
My two deletes...I thought as soon as I typed these two there is going to be a new thread...
Jim and Andy.....weather guy just said 4-10" of rain for LA.......need an ark???
6-8 ft. of snow in the Sierras! Awful!
A seal named Neptune at the Toledo Zoo died this week. He was 36 and had actually worked with the Navy Seals, and was donated to Mystic, Conn. aquarium in '78. He went to the zoo in '99.
