♫ ♪ ♫ LOL, Lori !
The fabricator has been hear for the measurements. Now it's just a wait game...I'm hoping before graduation but not sure if it's going to happen. We are also trying to do something with the back yard. I think we are going to add more "hardscape" because the dogs just destroy the grass. We had a landscaping company come in and they wanted 10,000!!!! So, well, I guess we will do something ourselves LOL
We now have 35 peeps on the Facebook Shepherstown page COOL BEANS huh
Belle looks so pretty sitting alone
You can do it yourself DANA. Landscaping it fun and adds value to your home, has a great return too. I'm with you on the dogs though. Dalai and FloBear have destroyed a 12 foot sq area, and I reseeded another yesterday!
oh I should sign up for that fb page.
you can see the page with out being on it I think I'll send link
FACEBBOK PAGE
I set my alarm this morning to make sure I would be up in time for this.
It's always a better day starting it off with you guys + a visit is the cherry on top!
LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE IF i THNK YOU CAN SET UP FOR PUBLIC
Lori, Margy signed off about 11:30 last night, so I'll bet you're right about her sleeping in today.
Does it look like the weather is goo for Megan's Farmers Marketing today ?
Hopefully the weat isn't "goo", but is very good ! ☼
BELLE MOVING FROM 10 - NOW FACING THREE FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE NEST.
GETTING READY TO GO...AND SHE'S GONE.
I'm no MEGAN, but I'll grab a forecast. BBIAM - grabbing Coffee, too.
Yikes, I have to get another cup o' Joe ! Should have read "weather" in my last post. My brain and fingers are not coordinated today !
Thanks for the link I "liked" the page. But rather converse here :)
NEST WEATHER for today:
Today: Areas of drizzle this morning and a chance of showers between 10am and 3pm, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 3pm.
Otherwise, cloudy, with a high near 67. South wind around 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%.
New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.
BBIAM
Missed Belle leaving because I got swallowed up in Facebook.
Good Morning
I see we have wishes for
GOO WEAT this morning ☺
I got a 16-second view of Belle before she left.
DANA Mo do you have a facebook page What I want to find out is If they don't have a facebook page can they view the page I think they can just in case they want to look and not join If anyone out there is not on facebook please click on the link I sent a sec ago and let me know if you can se it OK Thanks I did a video and am posting to the page now BBL
Hope Megan has a successful day in spite of the iffy forecast. Thanks, Lori !
Glad you made it back from FB, Dana ! It's not for me, I'm just a crazy ol' woman resisting change, I guess.
One friend claims to have had her identity stolen via FB and another says she got a computer crashing virus from FB. Don't know if those are valid claims or coincidence.
Megan
If you are checking in:
I am on my 4th cutting of Lettuce leaves, such fun! and very tasty
And now I have enough Megan Plants on the patio to put out my
Bless My Blooms
plaque
(avatar)
I hope there are lots of folks who will brave the drizzle to make it to market....if you are going today
thanks for the weather forecast, Kay...is that for WV or Ohio ?
Changed my avatar, another "old" picture.
OH Kay
Never mind that question, I see it was Morning GLori that posted the weather....sorry
Thanks Lori !
Margy ! Goo morn, to ya !
Judy, I was able to access FB, no problem, so we can read without joining up. Good to know. I'll have to bookmark it. Thanks !
DanaMo
Great picture
glad you got your Steak !
No cooking, no clean-up, no dishes too ☺
Off to work I go I wonder if and when we will get a new thread No time was specified from what I remember I hope you all have a great day BBL
You have to have a facebook account to sign into facebook, but you don't have to "like" the page to view it once you are on facebook. Does that answer the question? I'm not sure if it does.
I enjoy facebook because I've been able to connect with my high school friends. It's been a great way to organize our reunion and just to catch up. I really limit my "friends" list because I just don't see the need to have hundreds of people that I am friends with. I like it for that and I like this because it's a group who all share a common interest and we have all become friends.
Dana, what a beautiful photo ! Thanks for sharing ! You got yourself a good lookin' guy !!!!
lots of different kinds of "trees" in the nest
I saw some of the daytime visits from work Friday
but only one new picture in the E-M album from Friday, from Loretta last night
I can't do screen grabs from work
We must keep our old "standards" going
Good Morning MARGY. Love your "Bless my Blooms."
I connected with all my grade school through H.S. buddies through Classmates and a church site, years ago. E-mail daily with many of them and we've had some great face to face reunions as well. Can't think of a soul I care about that I've not already found without FB.
I'm thanking God daily for the wonderful friends I've found right here, too !
Oh, DANA, you were a beautiful bride. How are your three four legged kids today?
I thank Him for you, too, Kay!
Speaking of...things must be getting better. I didn't read a single prayer request from Thursday afternoon on.
Glad to hear BOB is getting up & around. OH BOB - I really enjoyed your pictures at the Garden (forgot the name now - is it Longwood Garden?). I'd love to visit there.
Margy, "Bless my blooms", how sweet it is !
SHIRLEY, I've been thinking about you every day. I'm so thankful you're past that scare. You must catch yourself smiling a lot these days. :)
Lori:
What a great day in the garden for you!
I have seen lots of poison ivy and oak also....woof, that's a weed I do not like!
Now if it had flowers, that might be different
Honey Locusts and Honeysuckle are blooming, so pretty, and fragrant !
Work day for me, have to move along
Wanda
I missed your late night good night, always check to see, and hope you always will do that when you can
Hope all is well with you and all the family....Was there a Friday Night Family Fun Night for you??
Best wishes for a Good, Safe, Healthy day, Everyone
I'll try to visit from work
xoxox ☺ ♥
Be safe Margy.
The four legged kids...well the puppies are still getting into everything. I don't know what I am going to do with them. Boomerang was eating butter off the counter and I was sitting right here at the table. I couldn't believe how bold he was...then he comes over after I yell at him and pouts, while licking his chops! I need to figure out a way to get them to stop counter surfing. Any ideas.
Thanks for the compliment. I wore my moms gown which was really special and yes I got me a handsome man. He just knocked on my door one day, well actually it was Friday the 13th. :)
KAY, DANA, what's up for you this weekend?
Lori, you're right about the decline in prayer requests. Better weather must be making folks feel better ! I think the gang was so euphoric over getting the blog back that aches n' pains just flew out the window.
Thanks Lori and Kay...
It's a lot of fun, my little porch garden
so much more to chatter on about, but this thread might be fragile if Steve's automatic updates don't "take" so ....
I better be conservative
xoxo ttfn
I think we are working in the yard between the rain drops. This is a slow weekend. Next weekend is very busy so I am going to take advantage of nothing being on the schedule today and tomorrow!
Oh Lori:
Alone Again, Naturally... one of my very favorite songs, always makes me cry
And thanks for the tributes to our Firefighter, he made a big contribution to our fire department over the years, was a fire line officer, and helped develop the Junior Fire Department program for our company
which is still one of the strongest programs in the state !
Had an exciting (stress) evening yesterday. Freddy walked into the yard with a young bunny then Batman (they're cats) grabbed it, so Kate and I are chasing hobbly old Batman around trying to get him to let go of this bunny and he finally did when Kate hurled a rake into the bush he was hiding under! After half an hour the bunny wasn't going anywhere. I'm sure he was stunned and in shock = read a lot of bunnies actually get scared to death. So I picked him up with a towel, there was a small amoung of blood on it but he perked up and hopped to the back of the crate. I picked dandelion greens for it and we'll let him go somewhere "catless" up the street today.
I haven't even checked on it this morning. Everything said to have as little contact with it as possible. Hope he's okay. I'll keep you posted on his release today.
aw...Boomer got a baby bunny last year on Easter morning! It was still alive when he gave him to me, so I just moved him to the front yard away from the dogs. We have a bunny hole under our front porch so I put him there in hopes that he would be with others...never really knew what happened to him.
check out the little "heart leaf" at the bottom of our nest ☺
Have to feed the dogs or FloBear will begin with his moose noises and wake the neighborhood.
Magpie, that was the first thing I thought this morning when I saw the leaf, it looks like a heart.
Sorry, zoned out on you for a few. My keyboard froze and had to reboot????
Dana, would it seem too cruel to sprinkle red pepper along the edges of the counter tops until the pups decide they really don't want to go there ? Someone else must have a better idea !
Lori, you asked about weekend plans. I won't have Seth here this evening and overnight. He and parents are getting together with friends. We have an agreement that we never turn down such opportunities because we have many Sat/Suns to spend together. He and I will go to the Band Concert in the Park of Roses tomorrow evening. The first of the season.
Lori, nice rescue of the little bunny ! Of course, Batman and Freddy were just doing what comes naturally, but they sure didn't need the bunny for food. Hope it's okay today and will enjoy being released.
Margy, you're probaby already out of the door, but I thought you were off on weekends now ????
Time to catch up with news of the day, e-mail... So, going into LM and will see y'all later. It's been great sharing coffee, chat and Nestcapades with you today !
Wishing you all ♫ A bright, bright sunshiny day ♫♪
Anyone up for a trip to Hawaii ?
Rare Birds
Aha, back just in time to get Waxed ! Ouuuucccchhhh !
Oops, go to the bottom of Page 2 and back track to 1.
Back tracking to LM myself.
8:06 a.m., eagle in the nest.
Flew off and back with a stick.
Flew out at 10 o'clock position at 8:12.
YEAH AND WHICH EAGLE WAS IT ??
IT MOVED THE HEART LEAF, THE NERVE !!
Sorry to say that we checked on the bunny to release it and it did not survive. Must have had internal injuries - hard to see through all the fur. Very sad.
Wanda
I am looking for you...
hope the gardening is going well, you and your tubby gardens ☺
Oh Lori :(
so sorry to read of that...
I am signed on at work now
but better start being an honest woman and earn my paycheck
will be watching through the day
xoxo ☺ ♥
Let's just say when I report eagle, it is him. When it is Belle, I will say Belle. I am in the transition and praying for acceptance of "him".
!!! ♥ REMINDER ♥ !!!
PUT YOUR FOOD DONATION FOR THE HUNGRY OUT BY YOUR MAILBOX FOR THE POSTAL SERVICE WHICH WILL BE PICKING IT UP TODAY FOR LOCAL FOOD BANKS AROUND THE COUNTRY.

I didn't know about it and did not leave food out at home...wonder if the mailman will pick up from here ???
Will check the cupboards and give it a try
thanks Lori !!
Quote on Eagles4kids.com :
"The happiest people do not have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything they have."
Morning, all!
Thanks for all the lovely commentary.
Eagle...good for you Sharon :)
I slept in! It felt really good!
I am going to watch the grandkids later today/tonight. John and Ajay going out for their anniversary, then to a friends birthday party.
I am going to bring Nugz with me.
Lovely wedding pic DanaMo
JudyE, cute card!
I am going to try and get some mulch today...was going to use John's truck since it's still here...then he called and said he had the keys, LOL. Guess I am back to my car trunk for mulch bags!
Oh, the hack tower doors are open at CRC...I think Kinsey is the only eaglet left!
Lori, sorry about the baby bunny :( My dogs have found bunnies in the back yard on occasion as well. You can't fuss at them, they are only doing what comes naturally.
DanaMO...bitter apple spray on the counter edge? I am LOL at your recounting of Boomerang!
NBG eaglets look great! They are perching on the big crib rails!
Good Morning everyone - traveling day for me down to the graduation.
I hope that in the crowd I can actually pick out Christine! lol
Today is oldest daughter's b-day
Couldn't reach her by phone this morning - out running around.
Well Sharon it's one more week in
Bedford! Then Homeward Bound!
I will be back on later this evening - Stay dry and make it a good day.
3 eaglets at CRC now...2 fledglings are back!
Have a great ride down the road, Jo. Enjoy the day!
Will have to read the blog later. Heading out to Denton. Beautiful day here. Presently 57 and sun shiney!!! Can you believe 57??? Wow!
Have a great day! See you this evening!☺

Ahhh Change its everywhere. Not predictable. Not controllable. I hate to make decisions. I don't seem to do that as well as I used to, at least I don't think I do. Not to change, well that too is a decision. But change is all around all the time. Some I like, some I don't like at all.
I do like this change though. I can send everyone ♥ and a nice day wherever you go and whatever you decide to do or not do I hope your heart is filled with a ♫song♫
Good morning,
Damp morning here. Hunter's baseball practice was called off. Kathryn put in a movie and we have been just relaxing.
Good morning my wonderful eagle buds!
Tom is taking a nap, Mattie is watching a movie, and I am blogging! That, my friends, is a good day!! It is overcast here this morning and I have no problem with that at all! Sharon is on her way to get Mattie so Mattie can help her pack today and tomorrow!! One more week and my sis will be home!! God's timing really is always perfect, ya know?
Haven't had a chance to go back and read the blog, will try to catch up a little bit! We sure are a chatty bunch!!!
Pete's Pond is back on.line, but it's aligned with another group, not National Geographic. Picture looks great, but it's not moving about much right now:

Good Morning Eagle Pals ♥
It's raining up my way this morning and I'm finally done catching up on the blog since midnight last night. Whew!!
Lori - Sorry to hear the bunny didn't survive. We have such a heart for God's creatures!
Glad the early birds caught the visit this morning as they always do!
KayIM - Hawaii sounds great!!
Paula - Glad you slept in. It feels good. I do it TOO often!!
Margy - Glad you can still check in with us today. Too bad you have to work today!
Sharon - Glad you enjoyed our singing last night!! We were on a roll for sure, thanks to Lynne!!
Jo - Safe travels today and enjoy the graduation!! Hope the weather is good.
Shirley & Sissy - Nothing wrong with a quiet lazy Saturday morning!!
Lolly - Enjoy the cooler weather when you can.......Summer is right around the corner.
I'm working on my self-study continuing professional education credits today. Don't be jealous! LOL
Will be in LM as I take my tests at my desk.
Hope everyone has a blessed and happy day today! ♥♥♥
Home for lunch I thougth for sure we would have a new thread by now I wonder what time he set the automated feature
FYI I just put two picture one from the 13 and todays of both on them on the eaglemomster album
Hi,
I am wondering if the automatic feature will work since there were so many problems. We may have a week-long thread going here.
The nest is resplendent in green this morning.
Such a big word, Shirley......
I think I can take it out of context, though!!
Good NOON to all!
Another dreary day here.
Happy Birthday to Jo's ?Carol?, and Happy Graduation to Christine. I think it was to be held indoors.
Not too perky here...think TH. yard work caught up with me....or the dampness! Back hurts, knee
and ankle hurts and sinuses are a mess! Oh, well.....just taking it easy! DO have to go vote in our gubernatorial primary, but have until 7, so no rush.
Sorry about the bunny, Lori :(
LOL, bitter apple doesn't work! At least it didn't with Mai, and I just had to use it this morning for Liesl---and she went RIGHT BACK to chewing on the same thing!
Try crinkled alum. foil on the counter, DanaMo.
Lovely wedding pic of you and your sweet man!!
Thanks, Jim for Pete's Pond update.
Oh I got 1 minute Good Morning Wonderful Friends.
Hope you feel better soon, Lynn! xoxo ♥
I did get kitchen and bathroom cleaned and a load of laundry finished. Think it's time for some lunch!
Dang posted 1 minute past lol
I did send WVSusan a Happy Birthday email due to the blog being down.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY WVSUSAN AND PLENTY MORE ( :
DanaMo HAPPY ANNIVERSARY YOU YOU AND YOUR WONDERFUL HUSBAND
Ok Hedgie-Lynn tell me what did you get Liesl for her losing her toothy??
Paula I am thrilled that the medication is working for the "wonderful handsome Nugz".
Give him a nice rub for me and if he likes a scratch behind the ear that too. Hugs to you!!
My heart goes out to the wife and daughters of the young fire fighter and his parents and friends.
I am like you Mema Jo hope I don't miss Jesse Stone Movie. I've liked the ones he has been in before.
Sharon has a week and counting down with Thelma >>>>>> heading home.
Happy Birthday to Jo's oldest daughter.

Ok out of here back to work will try to read more when I come home You all have a great day AND face book now has 38 peeps and not even been up 24 hours It just doesn't show who has liked it like some pages do I wonder why?? BBL
According to Linda WV avatar on the OC forum there was a SNOWY EGRET on the nest this morning...Did any one here see it?
Stronghunter, I think we are going to have a week long Thursday Thread and I hope it does not crash from over load of comments...have we ever had such a long thread before?
The Library Conference Registeration is done and I was glad I volunteered. Good crowd of people there and some very good sessions...
Please be carefull when cleaning out your cupboards for the various food drives...check out the expiration date. The Soup Kitchen was given some expired cans of something (can't remember what) and they leaked all over the shelves:(
Good Point, Wanda. Too many times people give unwanted or expired items that do no good!
Hi Hoda!! Sounds like you have had a productive morning! I know I have seen threads with over a thousand posts here and maybe others have seen even more, so we'll hope things go well for us now!
Thanks Pa-Lynn(Linda), It was a good morning with the Library Conference Registeration. I too hope that this thread does not overload. I missed it when the site was down. Do you know if Snowy Egrets are common in West Virginia? A reported sighting this morning on the OC forum???
Excellent point about food donations Wanda Happens at the shelter often too. I am off to my cupboard now. Good reminder.
Nope, missed the snowy egret! Cool.
Just got back from getting my mulch from my local hardware store...love them!
Was able to get one of the last BBQ chicken dinners from the Lions Club BBQ, and scored a couple of tools for the beach house at a yard sale.
Gotta get showered and packed to head to John's...spending the night there too...getting my Mother's Day breakfast in the morning!
Wow, that is 1/2 chicken in my BBQ dinner...saving it for tomorrow!
Hoda, I do not remember a week-long thread.
Catch up w/ ya'll later tonight!
Have a good afternoon!
we have been up to 1200 comments thought!!
Afternoon all!
Woulda been here sooner but I'm suffering from laryngitis....all that singing last night ya know!
Very funny, Lynne!!!
Save your voice just in case you get a call for an audition somewhere!!
I didn't see a snowy egret, Hoda, and no one else mentioned it. Hmmm....
Oh, yes, we've had threads go voer 1000 posts on several occasions!
Dana, tooth fairy did NOT come for Liesl! But I did get her a new leash and collar yesterday!
Ha, ha---see the OC moderator put up strict rules for posts on the Observations forum.
Well, I often see egrets around here.....whether they are "snowy" ones or not, I don't know!!!
Lynne, stop talking----rest your vocal cords! LOL!!!
I started the idea of that thread months ago......and they still can't get people to just post actual activity on the nest!!
Hahaha! Consider the source....
Hedgie Has Liesl grown into a new collar. Tell me "shhhh" does it still have to say Meow?
It was a great idea, IMHO, if you couldn't read through all the posts, but just wanted to know what happened at the nest.
For a while people were posting, "Empty Nest at XXLXXpm"
Then people would ask questions, post opinions, discuss things, etc.
It just didn't seem to work!!
OC did try as they obviously did at the beginning of their thread today to let people know the purpose of that thread, but no one would go back to the original post to see what the thread was about!!
LOL Linda!! If you could REALLY hear me sing, you'd been looking for something to put me out of YOUR misery!
Steve is cutting the grass. Finally got the mower up and running. I need to go rake...it's really long and I hate long wet grass all over the yard.
Hey Lynne - Why are they singing Country Roads, Take me Home over on the OC Thread - Nest Observations Only Post #112 on???
Someone is lurking on our thread and doing a copy cat??
PA Linda----you should have e-mail!
no way! Interesting coincidence. I don't even go there!
I think the references to the song are just a part of their signature on their posts of a couple people!
Okay, back to my studying......and LM!!
Off to vote. BBIALW.
Thanks Lynn - You're so awesome!! You never forget ♥♥
Lynne - I never go to their forums either, but Lynn mentioned something about the moderator rules on a thread, so I went over to check it out.
It used to bug me when they reported Nest is Empty, Nest is Empty, Empty Nest, Nest is Still Empty every 10 minutes......
Thanks again, Lynn!
A Snowy Egret ? I'm flabbergasted, because there were several of us on watch at the time of day WVLinda says she saw it ! Check between 7am and 7:30 and you'll see some very observant people were at the SSCC at the time !
Lynn, so hard to learn to pace ourselves when we get going on jobs like you had on the "to do" list yesterday. I do the same thing, over do one day and pay for it the next. Election day on a Saturday ! Brilliant ! I think all elections should be on weekends when most folks are off work.
Wanda, such a good point on expiration dates on foods/cans. Seth and I both volunteer at CRC, that is, Clintonville Resource Center, working in the pantry and "boutique". One of our duties is to go through all food that comes in from community food drives before it goes on the shelves. It's amazing how much expired stuff we have to pitch ! It kind of amuses me to see how many cans of soup and jars of peanut butter are donated, as if many think that's about all the needy want to eat. We have a tough time keeping enough canned tuna, chicken and meats on hand. Now that I've worked there that is the #1 item I purchase for donation. Also, food stamps do not cover toiletries and there is always a crying need for those. They aren't food, but they are necessary !
Paula, have fun with those precious grands !
Great Caesar's Ghost, five minutes ago it was sunny, now it's dark and the sky has opened up. It's pouring ! Prediction was for widely scattered showers--guess they scattered into my neighborhood with a vengence !
Good mid-afternoon.
Lunch was nice. Always fun to chat with Interpol.
Rainy day so feel a nap sneaking up on me.
Have been trying to speed read and finally had to stop as it seems at some point Shirley took a tumble perhaps trying to escape the gun shot that might have left a body in a cemetery (of course, one would expect to find a body in a cemetery) and all this activity was accompanied by a chorus of Almost Heaven, West Virginia while the Bedford ladies pack up their belongings in preparation of leaving town as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, someone apparently attempted to high-jack the blog and Steve has wisely left town for a week. Whew, what an exciting day it was yesterday.
Lori, sorry about the baby bunny. We haven't seen ours for about two weeks but hope it will reappear soon.
Lynn, not sure what happened with Liesl but hope she's behaving.
Shirley, sounds like a nice way to chill with daughter and grand.
Paula, enjoy the time with family and happy belated Mother's Day breakfast. Don't forget to give us an update on Gianni, please.
Hi Linda and Glo and Wanda and all others I've not caught up with.
Lynne2, glad Steve is feeling better -- at least enough to cut the grass.
Happy Birthday to Jo's oldest and happy graduation day for Christine.
Need to do something with laundry. BBL
I'm back....THAT did not go so well...ran into an old ex-bf...ugh! Funny coincidence about that situation, tho'....when I was a "new" nurse, I worked with a gal who told me at my work bridal shower that one of her classmates was from up here. When I first started working at the local hospital found out that she was a member of the hospital's old family institution and that she had died of a brain tumor. Chapel was---and is---dedicated to her memory. Then 7 yrs. later I met him at GM. And mamny years later I dated him.
LOL, Glo---no MEOW this time! I actually found an extra-small dog collar at Food Lion!!!! Wouldn't you think the pet stores would be a bit better stocked??!!! :)
I only went over there to OC to see who posted about the egret, and saw that mod post. Ha, ha----Glen posted the Take Me Home, Country Roads....he's one of the troublemakers, isn't he?
Linda, how's the exam going?? Good luck---know you will do just fine!
Finished one exam, Lynn - Got 96%!!
Now I am on another 6 hour course that is beating me up big time!! Can you say....BORING??
Have to have 80 hours every two years and always procrastinate....
I only have 10 hours left of self study to do, but have to do 32 hours of live webinars.... Ugh!
Judie - I just love your sense of humor!! So witty!
I don't think Glen was a troublemaker over there, but I could be wrong. We all had our struggles with Hans!!
Sorry you had to run into your old bf, Lynn.......
I guess it happens in a "small town."
Thanks you Kay IM, it is what I was thinking, some of us here were watching at the time and no one reported a sighting...I did not go back to our blog to compare the times I have to admit.Sorry for the oversight. I appreciate your comment.
This is the second time that the announcement by the moderator at the OC site has appeared...they have been getting better about deleting them yet at times it takes them sometime to do so.
PA Lynn, the only self study I do anymore is the contemaplation of my own navel. It's boring, too ! are you up against a deadline on these courses ?
Hedgie Lynn, I take it sparks did not fly upon seeing the old flame ? Phooey, we need some excitement this afternoon. I don't know the players on the OC and rarely take a look at their comments.
Judie, love your post of 2:58, wrapping up yesterdays drama in one fell swoop !
Yes, Kay, I have to complete my remaining hours by June 30th!!
Shouldn't be a problem! I've done this before.....and will probably do it again!!
I'll finish up the self study hours this weekend and then do the webinars 3 or 4 afternoons a week over the next 4-5 weeks and then I should be set!!
Hoda, doesn't it seem incredible that out of so many people watching at any one time there would be just that one report and no on catching any pictures ? Can't really say with absolute conviction that it didn't happen, but I remain a skeptic.
Jim, forgot my manners earlier. Thank you for the Pete's Pond link. I lost it somewhere along the way and am glad to have it back.
That's "no one" catching pictures, of course.
LOL this is great indeed by Judie

Steve even thinks he has us all set with automated new threads. Well he tried but blogger cop and whoever works for him tried harder I am afraid. Maybe not but if it doesn't auto happen tonight or tomorrow I think this is what it is for the week.
Pa-lynn In regards to who is stirring the pot over at the OC site both male names mentioned certainly set tehmselves up to be expert. Glenn says the way he knows Truder is an adult male, and not a sub adult, and therefore it is Liberty he is seeing, ...are you ready for this???...the colour of the eagles legs/feet...when corrected he simply claimed he knew that all along...still claims it is possible to have a clutch this year and still claims that there are at least three eagles that show up in this nest, at times four...I am dizzy with shaking my head!!!
Judie, I loved your summary, too!!! You are on the ball!
Linda, when I retired I also inactivated my nursing license, so no more CE's for me!!!! Tho' I do still occasionally do some online ones and bank them JUST IN CASE anything happened that I had to reactivate. Highly unlikely but sometimes you never know what social security may try to pull.
THE PAIN THE PAIN
OMG, my experiment of not using any Aleve or Tylenol is NOT going well. Seems that besides my knees and back, there is a lot of pain in my shoulders, upper back, elbows and my legs, mostly the front of my upper legs (aka THUNDER THIGHS!!). And it's BAD. If a 1 is no pain and a 10 is so bad I couldn't move around, I'm at a good solid 7. It so hard to rake and my husband is getting angry that I won't stop. Whatever dude...
Glo, I was wondering about yesterday;s BLOG OUT and if that would mess up the Auto Thread Steve has set up. Well, if it has, this will be the longest thread in Blogstory!
LOL Judie!
Pa-Lynn I remain a skeptic also.
Linda, sorry I forgot my manners with you as well. Best of luck getting the self-study and webinars completed. Please remind me what you do these for -- I'm sure I missed the significance while speed reading. As Andy can tell you, we are a solid source of support for our A students.
heading back out....
Oh, okay, Linda. Lynn's comment brought me into the current blogosphere. I bet you're a nurse taking comprehensive exams in order to keep your license active. How's that for being a quick study? Good luck and you have our support, of course.
Headed to elevate my ankle. Don't even have to look outside -- it's raining.
BBL
TRUDER in nest.
Judie---what Liesl did this morning: in one minute while I answered the phone, she chewed the binding loose and pulled out carpet fibers on the bound remnant in front of the door! Mai pulled that stunt, too. I sprayed it good with the bitter apple---they both went RIGHT BACK TO IT! ARGH!
Poof from 11 spot
No, Judy - Nursing isn't my area of expertise!!!
I'm doing this for my CPA license....
Hoda - I haven't gone into any of those OC threads in so long, I didn't know who was who. I don't remember Glen too much, so I thought he was okay. GUESS NOT....if he thinks all those things about the male eagle. My goodness. Glad I got out when I did.
Lynn, wonder if there is something particular about that piece of carpet? Maybe the type of fiber or some scent to the fibers/backing? Do you have an old piece of something you can substitute to see if she has the same behavior? Just wondering...
Lynn, Seth called a few minutes ago to say Malcolm has chewed on the third remote control in 5 months. He's destroyed all of them. Loves plastic. Seems the human beings in the house need to put the remotes in a safe place rather than leaving them sitting o the couch ! At least Liesl is a puppy, Malcolm is 2 years old.
Well, I guess I'll turn in my crime solver's badge. CPA? Well, that's good, also. I'll holler when I need help, please and thank you. Good luck getting everything completed on time.
Lynne2, you've probably said, but I missed it. What is this going without pain relievers experiment all about ? Now the pain is way ahead of you and it's going to take a while to get it under control, I'm afraid.
Hoda - I just logged in for the first time in a couple months, because I remembered I friended a male over there from England just before I got fed up with the whole thing. IT WAS GLEN!!
That is too funny. It was on March 25th that he friend requested me, so he is an expert in a little over a month?? Interesting!!
He even told me he has never even seen a bald eagle and they don't have them over there in England! Don't know if that is so, but it is funny to learn he is now a trouble maker and and expert!!
What a RIOT!!
You have much patience to go over there!! I see where you report nest activity the RIGHT way!! You're too kind!!
Judie----Nope! Linda is a CPA!
I'm still getting a kick out of you, Judie, especially since you think I might think you lost your manners!! In this blog??
As soon as you think you're in this "blogosphere," you realize you're NOT!! Too much to catch up with on an hour by hour basis!!
I SOoooooo enjoy your light hearted comments........and of course, your support. ♥♥♥
Usually these self study courses are pretty straight forward, but this one I am taking now is kicking my butt!!
I'm ready for a refund or an exchange..........or maybe some of Lolly's wine.....
Sorry for all my typos......Maybe I should "preview" before I post....
Linda, did you tell Glen that the bald moniker isn't really what they are? Just that the white made them look "bald" apparently to Audubon or somebody way back when? But yes, I think they only have Golden Eagles across the pond. Very majestic, too!
Okay, now back to the question on FFOR under both the SEC and PCAOB definitions......Ugh!!
I mean, really......does this mean anything to me???
Lynn - I have NO intentions on posting over there again. I'll go in and look on a rare occassion, but I had my fill in about 10 days there!!
If he is such an expert, we will let him figure that out for himself! ☺ ☼ ‼ (just playing around)
Judie, I still have the carpet piece that was there from when Cinnamon was still here. I had put it downstairs so that her smell wouldn't be on the carpet---I had the carpeting itself cleaned before Mai came, but not the remnant "mats". Will have to bring it up now cause I sure can't have a fraying piece at the entrance!
I believe "balde" is one of the French words for white and somehow that was shortened to bald for Bald Eagles. Who dunnit I dunno. I also believe Bald Eagles are only found in North America with the largest concentration of them in Alaska.
Per Wikopedia:
The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a bird of prey found in North America. It is the national bird and symbol of the United States of America. This sea eagle has two known sub-species and forms a species pair with the White-tailed Eagle. Its range includes most of Canada and Alaska, all of the contiguous United States, and northern Mexico.
Bald Eagles are not actually bald, the name deriving from the older meaning of the word, "white headed".
Haliaeetus Leucocephalus, how about that for a new Truder name ? It just rolls right off the tongue !!!!
And class....that is our lesson for today!! Thanks, Kay! ♥
Yeah, I bet that would be fun to type out while having your first cup of coffee at the SSCC!!!
I bet we would see MANY variations of spelling then.....
LOL, PALynn ! It sounds like a disease or the technical term for bad breath !
OK, clearly I've been gone too long....Leisl has become destructive, Linda has changed careers to nursing , Judie is now our meteorologist, and Kay is and gotten her Masters in Orinthology while picking up men on Facebook. Geesh, I can't leave you all alone for a minute!
LOL, Lynne2, but wait, Glen belongs to PALynn. As appealing as he seems to be I would never make a move on the man of another blog bud !!!!!
Kay, I've been taking Aleve 1-2 twice a day per my back Dr (and now the knee doctor)for about 10 years now. I am worried about the cardio side effects, and my knees seem to just be getting worse instead of better. So I stopped taking it, and Tylenol, to see if they were even helping me at all.
oh woops, Sorry Kay! LINDA is picking up men. Hmmmm. He probably has chocolate.
Yeah, Lynne.....maybe even M&M's!!!
Didn't pick him up on FB, either.
Get it right, Girl....it was on the OC forum about a month and a half ago......
Dumped him there, too!!
Wait.....if I get to be the nurse, will someone else take on this exam for me. I'm about to get Lolly's wine bottle or burst into tears. It is like GREEK. I picked a tough one!
Thanks for the explanation, Lynne. So, now are you thinking they were helping and you need to be on some kind of pain killer ? Can the doctor suggest something that would protect your digestive system and also address cardio concerns--that is, something to be taken along with the pain killer. I'm out of my element here, Hedgie, help !!!
Truder on nest, arrived while I was away
Good Saturday evening all. It seems as if we are having a little trouble with our carpets. :) I don't miss that at all.
Hope this finds everyone doing ok and looks like talking up a storm. Speaking of storms, we are on a thunderstorm watch here and yes, LYNN, the fire is still burning over in Alligator River Refuge. It depends on the wind as to wether we are declared a code red for air quality. Our field day was called off in the afternoon, as the winds switched to coming out of the sw and we got pretty smokey. Also I see where someone went from a nurse to a CPA. You know ladies, that is how rumors get started! :)
So sometime between 5:27 and 5:34. Picking around on twigs and greenery at the 8 spot.
I'll go back on the Aleve for now. I have Tramadol for the days that are really bad. I was thinking of asking about Cymbalta which is an antidepressant that according to the commercial will help musculoskeletal pain. I can't afford to have my back fixed, and I'm not happy that my knees are so bad so suddenly. Now I find I have bilateral pain in all my big joints. If I were a horse, they'd shoot me!
Colonel Adam Boomerang the Yo Yo Truder present Wow I see we have a visitor I was watching news and looked over
for some reason I had to log back in to google HMMMM wonder why
Oh JIM, thanks for letting us know that the Pete's Pond site is up and running again. I looked in to find a wonderful pic, but no animals at the present time.
Yes, Candy, we're just sharing our professions!!! I figure whoever can pass this ridiculously difficult I'm taking can have my title, too! Why not??
We just share and care here.... ♥
Hi Candy! You really should have been here for our sing a long last night!!
poof
poof
LOL, Candy ! Good to "see" you !
Truder is gone.
I'm sure he'll be back after all he is a boomerang
POOF Truder !
Poof Truder.
Is he and Belle seeming to get along ok and maybe bonding? It still won't be the same tho.
Candy, hope that storm doesn't materialize, stay safe !
speaking of carpets....Daisy or Puddles, and I really can't be sure which, dug a hole in our living room carpet a while back....oh geez, and now I hear someone upstairs vomiting so I guess I'll go CLEAN carpet now.
Kay IM, my head spins when I get on here now a days. There is so much chit chat and other things going on with everyone. It is hard to keep up if you aren't on daily. I still have a habit of falling asleep early weekdays.
Candy, I guess you could say they get along most of the time. They have their squabbles, but then the course of true love never ran smoothly, "they" say ! Belle has a lot of rough edges to smooth off the young guy !
Kay IM We could sure use the rain to put out the fire over in Alligator River Refuge. They said that the other day the wind was blowing out of the east and they got the smoke all the way to the Raleigh/Durham area. I don't know if that is true, but that is what is said. ( Again, I guess that is how rumors get started. :P:) LOL
Well Belle had just better set him straight right in the beginning. :)
Shirley and Judie, if you are lurking, watch the weather. The radar is showing some big storms that may be coming at you from the south.
wow, check out my daily message from God from Facebook....this is so timely!
On this day, God wants you to know
... that God will get you through the pain. Everyone experiences pain sometimes, emotional and physical. Next time it threatens to overwhelm you, take a deep breath. As you breathe slowly, picture God holding you, crying with you, giving you the strength to get through.
Candy, I didn't mean to bail on you. For the second time today I had to re-boot when the keyboard and mouse quit working.
I was going to say, I know it gets hard to play catch up sometimes. I don't know if you're aware that the blog was down for hours and hours this past week. I think some posts were lost and it appears that Steve's automatic new thread setting isn't working. Some of us have been extra gabby as we were soooo excited about getting the blog back !
I'm going to bow out now and run my virus and malware programs. Need to see if there is something bogging this system down.
Hugs to all and BBL ! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Watched Black Swan. It was very strange.
