Kay said...

Thank you, Steve ! I've put out the New Thread Call. Hope you're having a good day and week !

Kay said...

SHARON, like Shirley, I don't know what the numbers mean, however, I'm sooooo glad the iron is smoothing out the wrinkles in your health and welfare picture ! Continueing prayers !

Ms Bookworm said...

Good Morning!

Thank you, Steve, for the new thread. Hope you are having a good day! Thank you, Kay, for the call over!

Well, gang, I'm in a bit of a quandary--the "Doctor Gary" who called looking for a transcriptionist 3 weeks ago has called and left a message (late yesterday afternoon). He says they sent me an e-mail, but didn't get a reply. (Why didn't they call me?) I have carefully checked my e-mail, and my "Junk Mail" folder--nothing. He wants me to call them back. I wish I could say I were less suspicious of them, but there's just something weird about them. How come the doctor goes by his first name only, and why don't they ever mention the name of their medical group? Anyone have any input for me? I'm not wanting to give them any important info--know what I mean? Hmmmm....

Lynne2 said...

Sounds too weird Andy....go with your gut.

Hi everyone!

Ms Bookworm said...

Sharon, I'm SO glad you are starting to feel more like yourself! ((HUGS))!!
Prayers continue!

stronghunter said...

I would be suspicious, too, Andy, What is the deal with these potential employers you keep encountering?

Lynne2 said...

Guess what? My "sad" job called, no appts. this afternoon so I have been asked not come in. UGH>

Oh well, I'll go with Steve to the dentist!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Shirley and Kay, the numbers do mean that I am getting better.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Andy, can you go into the office and find out more?

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Sharon,
I COULD go into their office, but judging from their area code, they're in the Los Angeles or Pasadena area, and I don't want to go there by myself. Too far (about 40 miles), AND they never gave me their address, either! Just odd. I might e-mail my teacher and see what she thinks.

paula eagleholic said...

LOL I was stuck on the other side of the split! And then a new thread!

Lori, will that interview air at any other time, or will it be available online?

Ms Bookworm said...

All I can say is, whenever I have ever called a legitimate doctor's office, the person answering has said the name of the medical group or full name of the doctor, then something like "Pam speaking. How may I help you?" You call these folks, you get "Hello?" and you have to ask who they are! BIG red flag!

Lolly said...

Ola!! Whew!! Presently 100.2. Came in little over an hour ago from working in the yard. Now I am wiped out!

Margy! Your toesies!! You are a wild child, for sure! LOL

Lori, (((HUGS))) We are here for you. Momster prayers are powerful prayers, and plently are going up for your Mother.

I will start working on my pictures. Will let you know when I have them all up on the blog.

Andy, that is very mysterious about the doctor. Be very cautious.

JudyEddy said...

Thanks for the new thread STEVE Check checking in before getting a shower and headin out for dinner with son BBL

Judie said...

Andy, I suggest you investigate further. Try to use reverse phone number using the computer to see what comes up for a name/address. If you can get a name check with the AMA, online malpractice claims, etc.). When your gut says be cautious, be cautious. Regardless, if this person is contacting potential employees through the school, you should absolutely make known what is happening. JMHO

JudyEddy said...

Steve had this on face book from

SC3 2001
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5Mh7i-S3_w">SC3 2011 from STEVE

hedgie said...

Hello. Didn't get home til 4! Long lunch meeting. THe one gal sure can talk! All interesting, but she gets off on tangents and it's hard to steer her back to the topic we are there for!!! We were critiquing (I like post-mortem!) the open house!!!

hedgie said...

Sharon, Hmg could be better, but hopefully it will continue to rise and NOT drop again. Of course, if you were past middle-age, it would be acceptable as is!!

Lolly said...

I am getting really irritated. I posted pictures last night on my blog but today, while trying to add more, I am having tons of difficulty. First I could not load pictures. Now, I loaded pictures but when I hit publish nothing happens.

Has anyone else had this problem recently? Help!!!!

Hoda said...

Camera shakes...

hedgie said...

Hola to you, too, Lolly!!!

Andy.....Yep, try the reverse # thing. But I would also ASK them for the info that is NOT being provided! AND definitely let the school in on this suspicious deal. I would say they are the ones who would have made DR. Gary aware of you....so THEY should know who/what he is.

JudyEddy said...

SHIRLEY
GG in the BEAN PATCH♫♫♪♪♫♫In the valley of the jolly Green Giant came to mind♫♫♪♪♫♫ /So glad she loves her wheelies

Hoda said...

JUDYE the link of what Steve posted on youtube can not be found according to the message I got...would you try again?

hedgie said...

Gee, Lolly, I often have that problem...but I'm only doing a couple at a time, so I just keep trying! It's worse on the desktop than on the laptop---I end up having to send them to myself in email and then do it from the laptop. So I always thought it was me!

hedgie said...

JudyE, I just get Blank Page heading on the video.

JudyEddy said...

One more try HODA

magpie said...

Judy
in the picture...

We, Denise and I, were helping GG put on her Princess Slippers before she went out ☺

Hello Eagle Pals xo

JudyEddy said...

it worked for me now ok gotta go BBL going to Red Lobster MMMMM

magpie said...

looooong luncheon Lynn
Welcome Home

Lynne2 - not such a bad thing, not going to the Sad Job, and GOING to the dentist with Steve

magpie said...

maybe your pictures are just too spectacular for your blog, Lolly ☺

I have not had too much trouble, but I just do five at a time, no notations except as the heading

Paula, glad you found us, Twice !

Andy, Ditto from me for the good advice here on CAUTION

magpie said...

going out to check on the "crops" and soak up a little HOT Vitamins D and K

bbl

magpie said...

and Yes, Wanda...I L♥ve the picture of Denise holding GG's hand.
I enjoyed being with you and Gene all your family and Katie and Q and Lynn that night, so much...
Thanks Again !!!

JudyEddy said...

I had issues several times they uploaded but looked like they weren't there but I hit the add pic and they then showed up ODD and I have lots of issues with video OK now I am leaving BBL

JudyEddy said...

Love the pic of GG and Denise also but exactly who is Denise? is she on the blog not on cheat sheet??

Kay said...

JUDYE, when I go to the link you provided for Steve's FB entry, I get my own profile. Sure hope it's not on FB ☺

Kay said...

LOLLY, don't have a clue about your problems posting pics on the blog. However those I do see are wonderful ! Good family fun in one of our most beautiful locations ! Thanks for sharing !

hedgie said...

JudyE-now it says: This video is unlisted. Only those with the link can see it.

Info: An unlisted video is a different type of private video. Unlisted means that only people who know the link to the video can view it (such as friends or family to whom you send the link). An unlisted video will not appear in any of YouTube's public spaces

hedgie said...

JudyE---Denise is Wanda and Gene's daughter!!!

Lolly said...

Thanks, Kay! Have a whole lot more pictures but it is still giving me problems. Just will not publish! Oh, well, I am getting a frustrated headache. Going to quit trying for a while.

When you do go look at the pictures, remember to click on them, and then again to enlarge to full screen. Much better!

hedgie said...

Kay, are you on FB????? I didn't know that, did I?? Friend me!!

Kay said...

JUDYE, when I clicked on HODA in your 5:22 post, it took me to Steve's video. Excellent ! So neat to see some of the things they do at NCTC. There are some valuable communication skill reminders there. We don't "hear" each other on this blog, but I'm determined to read posts more thoroughly so that I understand what a blogger is saying. We have a variety of "accents" in the way we phrase, spell and punctuate, but I'll make an effort to have better understanding and to post my thoughts in a plain and simple way, too. TRY is the operative word ! ☺

hedgie said...

I don't know where my mind is......just feeling so befuddled since yesterday....sorry.....but I SAW AN EAGLE TODAY!!!! Mature....Margy---(s)he was over Tomahawk Intermediate....which probably means fishing the creek??
Quite low----banked so that full wing spread was obvious (BIG) and then when (s)he straightened, I could see white....traffic was stopped, so I was safe with eyes to skies!

Hoda said...

WOW BRAVO STEVE AND NCTC!!!

Great video of their activity during the conference.

Thanks JUDY E for posting it.

Kay said...

LYNN, no I'm a hold out agin' FB ! I was just referring to Judy's tag line on her original posting of the link. Did you try the HODA Judy sent a little later ? It worked for me.

Lolly, thanks for the enlarging hint, I'm heading back for another look see !

Hoda said...

LUCKYYYY LYNN..sighted an eagle and traffic was stopped.Thanks for sharing.

Kay said...

LYNN, what a great and thrilling Eagle sighting !

T-Bird said...

Good evening eagle momsters and dadsters.

Lolly said...

Hey, Thelma! How be ya?

hedgie said...

NZ Quake

Kay said...

Good Wednesday evening to you, too, THELMA !

LOLLY, enlarging the phots made them evem more enjoyable. What a happy family and understandably so !

Kay said...

NZ ? Again ? What a shaky part of the world that is. We have a friend who's daughter has lived there for years. Every time I see a new quake report my heart stops til' I find out how severe it was. No injuries reported on this one, yet.

Kay said...

Goodness Gracious, that last message to Lolly has more than one typo and right after I promised to do better. My bad !

Kay said...

Okay, I guess our eagles have been visiting much later in the evening, when they do, that is. Going to have some dinner, watch some news and Jeopardy. BBL

T-Bird said...

Hey Lolly, doing okay this way, you?

Lolly said...

Kay, we really do not mind typos, though sometimes it is entertaining to make fun of typos.
We would not have the momster dictionary if not for typos. I have made several contributions. LOL

Lolly said...

Suffering in the heat, Thelma! But, I will survive!

hedgie said...

Pigeon's remember faces

Very interesting!

hedgie said...

What was Bluefield's high today, T-bird? It is currently 92° here. Whew!

hedgie said...

Sofa time...BBL.

JudyEddy said...

OH LYNN saw a eagle so neat!!
and remember always be nice to pigeons neat article

Dinner was nummy in the tummy ok nummy isn't a word but it rhymes LOL LM got to go get comfortable for a bit

Hoda said...

I am pretty certain that one or both were above the nest between
5:00-6:00 PM EDT...it started with camera shaking, I posted that, and continued with noise on the casing off and on. At the time there was no wind at the nest site. I wonder if they will show up tonight?

Judie said...

Lynn, so happy you saw an eagle, adult at that. Lucky lady.

Kay said...

LYNN, pigeons remembering faces ? Pretty amazing. I wonder how many other birds actually have that capability ?

hedgie said...

Got an email from NC Suzan....included was this info:

Did you read that the Blog is getting a new name? it will be Google Blog and the changes will go into affect in about six weeks. Google also purchased Picasa.


Did anyone else hear about this? Gee---wonder if google can manage to toally screw up Picasa?

Kay said...

JUDYE, a Red Lobster dinner with your son, sounds yummy to me ! There are some expensive seafood eateries here, but I'm always pleased with my RL meals and don't feel like I need to take out a loan to pay for them !

JudyEddy said...

CarolAnne sent me the picture and I posted it on my blog the eagle on the car I love it I just wish I could see the video I asked her to friend request me being its on her and I can't see it because of that I guess But the picture is just tooo cute Love it
EAGLE ON CAR

magpie said...

Awesome, Lynn I just read your post...!!!
Could be, from...well, not sure where....
maybe the same one I saw last year...maybe one from Sleepy Creek just cruising around !Bravo !

JudyEddy said...

What is a RL meal??? I sit here scratching my head thinking LOL

JudyEddy said...

Color are starting to fade on the nest

Kay said...

I don't know which direction the wind is blowing, but I wish Belle and Truder would visit now. We can see most of the nest for a change !

Kay said...

JUDYE, just did an abbreviation for Red Lobster. LOL

JudyEddy said...

I am a little slow at times LOL

magpie said...

Ha Ha Kay
the wind is blowing THIS a'way.

Hoda said...

OK I am a woman with a mission. Wish me luck as I go video the Dragon Boat Senior Team Paddlers. If it works out I will post it.

I hope to read that they visited the nest while I am gone...I will miss seeing them. BBL

JudyEddy said...

what was that

JudyEddy said...

a pop of sort

JudyEddy said...

fireworks

JudyEddy said...

I know our neighbors were blowing some last night again hope they are out

magpie said...

I missed that
Judy
because I hit the darned refresh button on the cam instead of on the blog !

JudyEddy said...

sounds like fireworks a pop pop every now and then or am I hearing things now?

JudyEddy said...

Spoke tooo soon they are doing fire crackers on my street right now

paula eagleholic said...

JudyE are you hearing my neighbors, LOL ☺

Lolly, wowser, Hot hot where you are! How did Ashley do on the trip?

Hoda, hope you get it taped!

paula eagleholic said...

Lynn, you saw an eagle! How wonderful!

Lori, prayers for your Mom and hugs for you. Did you hear anything yet? Are you going to be there for the surgery?

paula eagleholic said...

Was waiting for the eagles and eating a late dinner.

Going to take Nick for his first walk shortly. He also has his first vet visit tomorrow night. He has a couple of stitches to be removed from being neutered and he'll need a couple of more shots.

JudyEddy said...

magpie said...

I think it was good

magpie said...

Linda said...

Evening All!!

LOLLY - Whew is right....You surely had a hot day today!

LORI - Keeping you and your Mom in my prayers ♥

Now to catch up on the last day and a half.....or more!

hedgie said...

Well the way I interpret it is that instead of being called Blogger, it will be called Google Blog.

Good luck, Hoda!!!! Hope it works!

Love RL, JudyE and Kay----but can't do it too often!!! Not very convenient--have to travel to Hagerstown.

Goodnight to those turning in. Restful sleep!

Paula, hope they don't have to dig for those last sutures. Poor Nick!

Judie said...

Paula, hope the walk with Nick was fun exercise. I'm sure he was a perfect gentleman. He'll be just fine with the vet tomorrow, also. You have a winner.

Hoda said...

Well!!! I am back I thought I had a long video but it turns out I have a short video. Don't blink as you might miss it...Some lovely ducks flew right infront of the camera. I have it uploaded on Windows Live on my computer and I was able to watch it an am able to send it as an email, and now JUDY E or PAULA you have to let me know what I have to do to get it to the blog...Thanks for all of your help.

Judie said...

Hope the video worked, Hoda.



The sandperson is nearby. I have set the night light for 11pm in case anyone needs to get up in the dark or comes in late from the West Coast. Restful sleep for all.

Kay said...

Goodnight MARGY n' JUDY ! I'm right behind you. We early birds need our beauty rest !

Margy, I think we all need to get a bigger prayer jar, though I think there are some at the bottom that have been beautifully answered. Prayers of thanks, for those ! Praying fervently for LORI's mom, Nancy. Praying, too, for LORI and sending a big hug {{{{{{{{L♥RI}}}}}}}}}}}} Will be asking the Good Lord to bless all who are in need of His loving care as well. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Have a good rest of the evening, a restful night and a great morning, y'all ! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

♥L♥I♥B♥E♥R♥T♥Y !!!!!!!

Lolly said...

Paula, Joey grew the beard for Elvis. He has shaved so he could have sideburns. Now he starts the beard and sideburns all over again for Elvis next month.

Ashley, did fine...actually she did great. Now, I am going to tell the truth, she did great avoiding all work...quote "I am out of my element." No lie! Jack and I cooked all meals, Laurel helped where she could. Ashley, "You need milk, Zach? Ask Grandmommy." "Laurel, do you have vaseline, Zach needs some for his face....he'll want you to put it on." Yes, I am being ugly, but it got a bit ridiculous. Those were two direct quotes. The vaseline was unbelievable and the request for milk was when I had just sat down and had been working hard and she had been sitting.

Hoda said...

The video is actually 15 seconds...not too short!!!LOL!!! I have it also on Realplayer. I have to subscribe to get it on youtube apparently.I will await instructions...

Lolly said...

I am going to try loading more pictures to the blog. I was so frustrated this afternoon. When I clicked on publish nothing would happen. We'll see......

paula eagleholic said...

Oh, I read about the straw over the weekend...didn't realize what that was in the nest!

Looks like the man on the moon, Margy ☺ It's pretty tonight.

hedgie said...

Google changes

Lolly said...

Well, I am still unable to add more pictures. Think I am going to download the pictures to another computer and try on it. Makes me so mad. The pictures I do have on my blog I did last night with no problem. Grrrrr!

paula eagleholic said...

Hoda,
You can create your own blog. You can name it anything you want. Once you create a blog, you can upload it there...You have to create a post and then upload it on the post. Uploading videos on your blog is best for short ones.

You could also upload to youtube, and then share the link on the blog. Doesn't take much to do a youtube account.

hedgie said...

So I guess this will become Google Blogs Shepherdstown etc.
Did not remember that they already owned Picasa....soon to be Google Photos.

paula eagleholic said...

Lolly, I want to BARF! LOL! Think I lucked out better with Ajay and Laura!!

NatureNut said...

Good Evening Everyone. Been watching Nat'l Geo. tonight. Great shows about Appalachian Trail,Grand Canyon, and Canyonlands Park in AZ.
We had a bang up accident up the street last night. There is a church that has many meetings and often collisions between reg. traffic & some coming out of church driveway.Ambulance took someone away~~hope they're OK. The man that lives up from us on our side of street is across from the church. He is a car dealer & usually parks on street in co. car. His was totaled about a year ago, so last night he moved it into driveway!(After the wreck)

The forces of nature have unfortunately struck again.Called Park this afternoon as couldn't see anything on osprey cam. My buddy, Pam, said it was offline & big problem at other cam nest. As I've mentioned, our original cam nest (not online yet)had first set of eggs destroyed by crows. Female laid 3 more that just hatched about 3 weeks ago.Today, naturalist ,Greg K., discovered the Mom was destroyed by a GHO. (Again!!)That happened about 3 years ago. He fostered one of the tiny chicks to another nest, built a partial roof again to cover the remaining two. Since they seemed rather small, they will be given extra chunks of fish that were thawing out today! Hopefully Dad can manage feeding just two. The males do not shelter chicks from weather, tho. Only time will tell whether that cam goes online. Learned from Park PR wheel today that they were pleased w/response online to cam & that one juvie was gone! Must be yesterday's Flapper! (I bet it comes back to spend the night.)
Dare we pray for an eagle cam??

paula eagleholic said...

The blog name should stay the same, Lynn.

hedgie said...

Way to go, Hoda!!! Hope some of the movie makers can help you get it posted!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Lolly, it's probably blogger acting up tonight.

NatureNut said...

Sorry for the litany~~only one post today!
Lolly, read your in-law stories. Barf is right!
Paula, happy dog walk & hope things are OK at vets tomorrow.
Glad to read Sharon is getting better and
prayers for Lori's Mom & to her! ♥

hedgie said...

Oh, Loretta, so sorry about all the trouble. Poor Mama osprey! What a lot of disappointment.

Hoda, if you do a searc for Google Blog help, it will tell you how to set up your blog.

hedgie said...

Lolly, your account of Queen Ashley doesn't surprise me at all! Too bad she doesn't have a clue.

paula eagleholic said...

Judie, Nick was the perfect gentleman on his walk! How did you know? Someone has worked with him...he walked right next to me, no pulling at all.

Linda said...

I think I'm too tired to read the Google Blogger changes....

I just hope that we don't have to look for another website to get on the blog. If something like that changes, will someone please send out a momester email for those of us who miss things from time to time......like me ☺

Linda said...

PAULA - I'm so happy for you that Nick is doing so well. What a blessing.....and a well deserved one for YOU!

stronghunter said...

So glad that you have good numbers, Sharon.

stronghunter said...

I need to take care of my bed. I stripped it earlier today. I will probably not return tonight, so I will say good night to everyone now.

Rest well, my friends.

NatureNut said...

Hi, Lynn! I forgot to send congrats on your eagle sighting!! That's great!
Was still searching for little Spotties at Chelsea today--0. Maybe they're out early in the AM. Haven't seen many foxes either. We know they're there, just don't see them.

Linda said...

I had a pretty exhausting day today and can hardly see straight! I work for someone one day a week to help out with his books. Some weeks it's a few hours and other weeks it's a LOT of hours. Today was a LOT of hours and I didn't bring a lunch! I should have left to get some lunch, but I didn't because I kept hoping I would finish!! That didn't happen!

Anyway.....I think I will head upstairs for the night and get some rest.

LOLLY - The pics you were able to post are great! Patience, my dear!! Maybe tomorrow it will be a breeze!!

Keeping you all in my special prayers for the so many needs. We do share a special bond here, which I think is amazing!!

Good Night and God Bless Each and Every Precious One...... ♥♥♥

Lolly said...

LOL I like that...Queen Ashley. She is highly intelligent and I am sure a great lawyer. However, she is so self centered and spoiled that it is just unbelievable. She is also manipulative. I do love her as my son loves her, but sometimes I want to scream.

Linda...I am trying patience but it is not working. LOL ☺

Hoda said...

Well I am having MAJOR DIFFICULTIES with the blog uploading my video. I need to put some space between me and it...I'll try again tomorrow.Sorry when I get overwhelmed with technology I have an inability to think creatively about what next to do...It does not want to upload when I create a post and I am doing the same things over again. I will catch up with the blog and relax a bit.

Hoda said...

PAULA I SENT YOU THE VIDEO IN AN EMAIL let me know if it works please.

hedgie said...

Hoda, maybe it's a google problem since Lolly is having trouble, too!!

FB is being a pain, too----can't delete or hide stuff today....argh!

From what you've said before, Lolly, Ashley comes by it honestly!

Hoda said...

Thanks Lynn for your thoughts that it could be a google problem...I will breathe and try again some other time. I hope Paula can open it. I will wait and see what she says...

hedgie said...

BTW.....Jo is home, safe and sound!

hedgie said...

Linda, sorry you had such a long day. And Shirley has had a fight with her bed???
Paula, as my parent's dear friend Bud used to say: "What a dawg!" That was his way of complimenting a good one!!! Good Nick!

paula eagleholic said...

Hoda, got it! Played fine. Sent you an email!

paula eagleholic said...

Try uploading it tomorrow, Hoda!

Hoda said...

The MAJIC of this blog is that people are so full of compassion and understanding and you are so very supportive. I tried one more time and it told me I was successful!!! So would you please visit my blog post and see if it works? It is under Dragon Boat Practice.

hedgie said...

Going to say my goodnights now. Liesl is sleeping soundly and I'll be heading for the tub as soon as news is over. See you all tomorrow. Prayers for all.

NatureNut said...

Had a June "Family Portrait" of the new baby ospreys. Put on Nook.

Nighty-nite time, so
Pleasant Feather Dreams ;>)

hedgie said...

Congrats, Hoda! It worked fine! Thanks----enjoyed it! Now you can really start filming to share your adventures!!!!!

Hoda said...

THANK YOU LYNN... I am so grateful for how patient and supportive our group is.

Goodnight and sweet dreams to all who are headed to bed GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU ALL.

paula eagleholic said...

Way to go, Hoda!

Hitting the hay here...

(((Hugs for all♥)))

Hoda said...

Thank you Paula for your instructions on setting up a blog.

Goodnight everyone, I will sign off now and see you all in the morning God Willing. God Bless and sweet dreams.

Lolly said...

Just got back. Have finally finished adding our camping pictures. Loaded a ton for you to see and believe me, it is not all. LOL

Rocky Mt. Natl Park blog. Remember to click on the pictures to enlarge, click again to make full screen.

Hoda, congratulations on loading the video. Just need to dive in and do it. That is how I learned...trial and error. Still making errors! LOL

Heading to bed now. Nite all! Sweet dreams! (((HUGS)))♥♥

Lolly said...

Oh, and do not forget to click on older posts when you get to the end. More pictures there!

Lori O. said...

Gosh, I love you all. Just finished reading the last thread and I feel better already.

KAY, thank you for the examples of people who have had heart surgery and survived happily...that's a great "bottom line" and I love those!

JUDYE, what a beautiful card. A nice message for anyone.

Costume Lady said...

OK, GG was in the bean patch, but she had just come back in when we got there. She told me she has beans about 4 inches long...ahhh, won't be long now:)

Off to bed I go~
GOOD NIGHT MY FRIENDS
PRAYERS FOR ALL

Lori O. said...

Thank you everyone for your prayers.

Mom called last night after I had gone to bed and left word with Kate that her surgery is tomorrow/Friday morning at 9. Kate said she wasn't very forthcoming with details so she probably is scared and doesn't want to talk about it.

PAULA, the interview will only air one time, Sunday morning at 7:30...you can stream it online from www.washfm.com
Really, it's nothing special, probably stuff you all know already, but a thrill because I think WCV is so wonderful, as we all do because they just do such great things for all animals, especially our eaglets!

BTW: I was on their website yesterday and they're doing a survey of how viewers would like them to expand their web services. So, put your 2 cents in!

Need to get going now ... still working today then come home and get ready to go to Pittsburgh.

SHARON, great news that your iron levels are up and you're feeling better. AMEN!

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Getting here so late it's early!!!

After everyone's good advice about that doctor, I looked him up online. His office is in Los Angeles, and he's a general surgeon. He has a licence in good standing, with no problems in the past. He graduated from the American University of Beirut. His office is called the Hernia Clinic.
I e-mailed my teacher, and she did some research, too. She thinks he is OK, and would be worth a try. Guess I'll call them tomorrow. Thanks for your advice, ladies!

Well, guess I had better make sure the porch light is on, and enable the security systems. I have said prayers for everyone, and every creature. Hope everyone is having sweet dreams. I need to get a little sleep myself! Don't be looking for me, early birds! I will be back later on in the morning. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]

Lori O. said...

Oh no.

Not sure if it's must my computer or what, but I can't get the live cam to run longer than 2 to 4 minutes.

I refresh after it stops and it runs fine for a few minutes then goes blank/black again with the circular arrow chasing itself in the middle of the screen. Hmmm.

Lori O. said...

Cam seems to be fine now. Had to refresh at the usual 14:42, but it's on!

Come on Belle & Truder.

Good Morning my wonderful friends and Early Birds!

Kay said...

G☼☼D M☺RNING gL♥RI !

So glad your Mom's is going to have surgery without further delay. The sooner the better. It will, no doubt, do wonders for her morale to have you there. You know we'll all be praying contiuously ! I have to hope there will be a computer available to you there so you can stay in touch with us.

Kay said...

No wind at the nest and so the leafy canopy is covering half the nest.

Lori O. said...

Hello KAY!

Thanks for the prayers. I'll be taking my i-pad but I'm not the greatest at it!

Kay said...

Another sweet avatar, LORI !

ANDY, so glad the doc checked out okay. He probably has one of those difficult to pronounce last names and has adopted the habit of using only the first. Here's hoping your follow up will produce positive results for you !

Kay said...

Oh good, I forgot about your new I-Pad. I suspect you'll be quite good with it by the time you head back home. Practice on us ! We won't mind ! Will your brothers be there, too ? Your dad must be thrilled to know his precious daughter will be at his side !

Kay said...

HODA, your blog efforts paid off and the video of the dragon boat team at work is good. Beautiful scenery. There are annual dragon boat races on the Colorado River at Laughlin, NV. The crews are Casino employees and the boats are highly decorated and colorful. Quite a festival with much money going to charities. I was too old to get involved when they began early in the 2000's, but had many young friends to root for !

Kay said...

LOLLY, enjoyed your vacation pics sooo much. They brought back such good memories of visiting and camping in the Park in the good ol' days ! It was always a stopover either coming or going when my family left Tucson to visit my aunt and family in North Platte. They sometimes met us there. I have some old black and white pics of those occasions. Great fun ! My parents, sis and BIL lived in Boulder 1962-1964 and I took my three kids up there on the train a couple of times. Mother n' Daddy had a doughnut biz and I loved going on the Estes Park delivery runs with him. Beautiful scenery in every direction !

Kay said...

2 EAGLES have landed !

Lori O. said...

Me too, KAY. VERY PROUD of HODA for trying and succeeding at the video project!

Dad loves it when I'm there when Mom is in the hospital. That way he doesn't feel like's the only one who has to entertain her...of course, my mother is fully capable of entertaining herself. I think he just doesn't feel so guilty when he falls asleep in the hospital room and it gives him someone to make the 95 min drive with.

Lori O. said...

I JUST SAW THAT! WELCOME HOME BELLE & TRUDER

Kay said...

Belle was at 12 briefly , but has wandered under the awning. Truder in center and partially hidden, too. He decides to fix some railing at 9 spot. She's moving and POOF

Kay said...

Truder moves under the awning and POOFS, too !

Lori O. said...

I JUST SAW SOMEONE POOF FROM UNDER THE LEAVES AT 4 OFF TO THE RIGHT EDGE.

Lori O. said...

Great job KAY! Glad I wasn't alole this morning. :)

Kay said...

Too, too short you two, come on back. COLOR gLORIous color arrives now that they're gone !

Lori O. said...

Definitely much easier to see them with the natural light. So tough to see them poof from the edge under the leaves.

Kay said...

Thanks, LORI, hurray for teamwork. Wonder why they sometimes stay for such a brief time ? Just assuring themselves that the nest is in tact and establishing, should there be any eagles eyeing the nest from afar, that this is OUR territory ?

Julie asked me to visit her, poolside, this morning before it gets too hot and while Seth is at work. We don't get nearly enough one on one time, so are both looking forward to this.

Kay said...

My piece of the cam has been on for 49 minutes with no halting. Next time I might have to refresh repeatedly. No rhyme or reason to it's erratic ways !

Kay said...

The black birds and small songbirds no longer frequent the nest. Guess they were only interested while building their own nests. It's been about a week since I've seen a squirrel dashing through, too.

Kay said...

PAULA, Nick is a treasure ! Someone must have worked with him, as you say. Do you have any history on him ? 2 year old granddog, Malcolm, must be walked with a Gentle Leader on, otherwise he yanks us down the street. Amazing how powerful even a small dog can be when he spies a squirrel, chipmunk, bird or another dog.

Kay said...

Hmmm good ! GG is about to harvest a crop of beans. Good eating ahead for her and her dear family !

Lori O. said...

That reminds me I need to go look at WANDA's pictures!

What a great idea for you and Julie to get together poolside in the cool of the morning, KAY!

I was watering my pots on the deck at 2:00 this morning. It's much more pleasant at that hour than
2PM!

Kay said...

Looking beyond the nest it appears to be foggy there this morning.

Kay said...

LOL, watering plants at 2am ! I wonder how many little nocturnal eyes were following your every move ?!

Kay said...

The WCV/NBG trio appear to waiting for the morning meal to arrive. It's hard to imagine them leaving this environment and learning to hunt for their own food. Guess hunger will be a great motivator and they are to be released in an area where many juvies and single eagles congregate. That will give them a bunch of friends to pattern after.

Lori O. said...

Hey KAY, I know this is about the time you leave. I'll have more time to chat when I'm sitting around at the hospital. I love you! Big hug.

JUDYE & DANAMO, I missed your charm & company this morning. Have a wonderful day with Jordyn, Judy.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Kay said...

Okay, I'm giving up on the thought that our beautiful fine feathered friends will return this morning. They must have gone fishin'.

LORI, will be praying for safe travel as you head for Punxsutawney-Pittsburgh. Mega prayers being said for Nancy and your whole family !♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Heading for newspapers, e-mail....

Will be back this afternoon.
In the meantime hope the rest of you awaken fresh and alert--you know what "they" say, "The world needs more lerts !"

magpie said...

Good Morning Eagle Pals...
running a little behind schedule this morning

Lori

magpie said...

Happy to read that Belle and Truder made an appearance this morning...
good reporting Kay and Lori ☺
Thanks !

can't stay long, clock is ticking too fast this morning....


Best wishes for a good day, Everyone...

xoxo ♥

Judie said...

Good morning, everyone.

Sharon, very pleased your numbers are indicating improvement.

Lori, will keep your Mom in my thoughts and prayers for tomorrow. Your Dad will be very happy to have you there.

Lowreeda, so sorry about the Osprey mom. Sure hope Dad can manage on his own. So sad.

Andy, very pleased the doctor seems to check out as okay. An interview can't hurt and may be a door opening for you.

Off to do some work. Wishing everyone a lovely day.

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

Lori, prayers for you and your family. I will be thinking about you.

Judie, thoughts for you in your preparations for the new school year. Lots of new material to incorporate with all that has been going on, I'm sure.

Hoda, I can't wait to see your video. You have such a sense of adventure.

Paula, you have one cool doggy there. Great to know that he has been well trained to walk on the leash.

stronghunter said...

Injuries at the running of the bulls. This event always just mystifies me. I cannot imagine why someone would want to do such a crazy thing.

stronghunter said...

BBL--Must vacuum,

T-Bird said...

Good morning eagle peeps.

T-Bird said...

Stronghunter, you can come and vacuum my house too. : )

grannyblt said...

Morning all. Great video Hoda. I tried to leave a comment, but guess I'm not signed up??

Lori, I will be sending good vibes down to Pittsburgh for successful surgery and healing.

Still no eagle nest sightings for me.

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING...
I was just reading about a juror in the Anthony trial, explain the reasoning for their verdict. Exactly what JUDIE told us!
***********************************
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Juror number three in Casey Anthony's murder trial, Jennifer Ford, said she and the other jurors cried and were "sick to our stomach" after voting to acquit Casey of murder charges.




Jennifer Ford


Ford told ABC News, "I did not say she was innocent, I just said there was not enough evidence. If you cannot prove what the crime was, you cannot determine what the punishment should be.

There is no doubt in my mind, that they were sick to their stomachs and shed many tears over that verdict. I'm so glad that this juror spoke up and let us know their feelings!

hedgie said...

Good morning, gang.

Lori, prayers go with you for a safe trip, easy and successful surgery and recovery for Mom Nancy, and for you to feel our arms holding you together in love and support.

Kay, have a nice mother-daughter visit with Julie. Hope the water is warm enough for a dip.
Cool that your parents owned a donut shop!!! Independent or a chain store???

Andy, many of the southeast Asian docs use only a first name because most Americans can't pronounce their last names. Glad things are checking out!!! Yep---go for that interview---and good luck!

hedgie said...

Shirley, Hoda's video is on her blog!

Grannyblt Lynne1---you just have to log in with your google sign-in: uncheck the box that says Stay signed in and then you can leave your comment---a stupid quirk that has popped up in recent weeks. Very aggravating.

Hi, Thelma and Wanda. Everyone tuned in for sentencing?

Linda said...

Good Morning.....

Present and accounted for! Wanted to join with my friends for the sentencing.

Linda said...

Parents are there. I wasn't sure they would be there today.

Casey almost looks too happy and gitty, but I guess the fact that she isn't going to jail for the rest of her life.

I think it is hard for us to look at her and understand her actions knowing all we know. I hate seeing her eyebrows going up and down all the time.

Here we go............

Costume Lady said...

Grinds my soul to watch Casey primping and adjusting her hair piece to her best advantage.
It will be interesting to see and hear about her actions after she is released. Justice will be served, eventually, and I hope we get to see it when it does happen!

Linda said...

I agree WANDA. Unless she has changed, which rarely happens, she will be in trouble with the law again in the not so distant future.

GOD is watching and is in control. He is the ultimate Judge here and in His time, he will take care of justice for precious Caylee!

Linda said...

L♥RI - I am sure today is a busy one prepareing to go to Mom's and getting there. Praying for traveling mercies for you today and that "Jesus takes the" surgeon's hands as His and heals your Mom's heart condition! ♥♥♥

(((((( HUGS TO YOU ))))))

hedgie said...

Judge did the best he could. At least she won't be walking out free today.

Linda said...

Better get some things done. Will check in later.

Wishing all my dear friends a Blessed Day today!

magpie said...

I guess we might SPLIT soon

magpie said...

Good Morning
Heard "Every Breath you Take" on Lori's Radio station on the way to work::

Every Breath you Take
Every Cucpcake you Bake
Every Plate you Break...
that's what "Lou" was saying after the song...too funny
was hoping to hear Lori's voice


xoxo

magpie said...

Final launch for Shuttle Atlantis:
Friday
July 8
from the Cape
scheduled for 11-15am or something am

hedgie said...

Love that song----don't know why Loo would make fun of it!

Weather is VERY dubious for launch time tomorrow....something like 85% chance it will be a no-go.

Hi, Margy!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Morning, all!

Glad to read Casey Anthony will not be set free today.
