Tap. Tap. Tap. Good morning, may I come in?

Well, thank you. I'll put some coffee on.

Yes, this is typical of the early hours of the first day. Cannot sleep.

Hi Andy, glad you have the work but would prefer you also have a paycheck. Burris Basin sounds terrific. A must visit for you and then a report to us.

Lynn, after looking at the video, have you considered the beauty of a mountain top cabin?

Linda, happy to hear you and Dennis went out tonight. That was a nice break.

Going to read through material one last time.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day in spite of aches, pains, power outages, and other concerns. BB tonight.

Lori O. said...

Have a great day back in the saddle, Judie! Hugs for when the wanna-be adults stress you out. ♥

DanaMo said...

Good morning Judie and Lori! I'm up after a good night sleep! Wow was I tired.

Great first day of school. I stagger the start so we have a small group for the first 3 days and then the whole class Thursday and Friday. Not that my class is large. I actually had 3 drop. Twins that were moving to the area ending up in Harrisburg instead and another family, the father just lost his job...had to put the student in public school due to money.

DanaMo said...

So bummed the cam is still down, I bet these cool mornings bring our friends to the nest.

Lori O. said...

I had to take Kate to the ER last night and didn't get home until midnight!

We were outside watching the vulture chick who had branched to a bigger tree and when we started walking back to the house, she clutched her chest in pain. She couldn't even speak. Then her head started throbbing and she got sick to her stomach. Of course, I'm thinking heart attack, so I gave her two 81 mg aspirin to chew. She wouldn't let me call the ambulance so we drove to the ER. The did an EKG and all the heart attack tests and couldn't find anything. Then they did a CT scan to make sure it wasn't a blood clot in her lung since she's been having sharp pain in her left lung this past week.
So... can I ask you to please say prayers for Kate that appointments this week at a Pulminologist and Cardiologist find and resolve whatever is wrong? Thank you! ♥♥♥

Lori O. said...

DANAMO, YAY for a great first day back to school! Singled out any youngsters for entertaining stories this year?

DanaMo said...

OMGosh Lori that's awful! I will say a prayer for Kate today. How scary!

DanaMo said...

We have one so far who has some great "one liners"! LOL! Gotta love kindergarten!

DanaMo said...

I think they loved going on the Safari and spotting all the animals!

Judie said...

Couldn't stay away.

Glad I came back. Lori, that is really scary. Been down that road with Darth several times. Sending serious prayers that Kate's tests will provide answers and treatment will be immediate and successful.

DanaMo, glad you had a good first day with the youngsters. Hope the second day is even better.

Okay, need to make myself look less scary for the wannabe adults.

Bye

Good morning,

Having my coffee and trying to get the cobwebs out of my brain. Read the comments from last night and early this morning. You all sound so knowledgeable and compassionate. I will just say "ditto" to all of your advice and kind words.

Right now my poor brain is being invaded with the sounds of cartoons.

Kathryn talked to Hunter again this morning and took notes to use when she calls the principal.

Hmm, Pepsi, the kitty next door, seems quite interested in watching my yard. Birds?

And squirrels seem to have taken an interest in my finch feeder. one of the socks has been ripped. Need to find a better spot to hang it.

stronghunter said...

Have a good first day with the wanna be adults, Judie. Which class is this?

stronghunter said...

2.2 aftershock at 7:39 PM yesterday. I did not feel that one.

paula eagleholic said...

Good Morning, all! What a gorgeous day! They talked on the news about possible rain for Texas, sure hope so! Lori, how scary! Prayers for Kate!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Good morning everyone.

I want to put in a prayer request. There is a guy that I talk to on Twitter, Kris Anderson. He has cancer and it is not looking good. His cancer markers are back up again. He has 2 small children and a beautiful wife. He did a video last year to Train's Marry Me for his wife's birthday, beautiful video. Anyway, he was on Oprah when she was in Australia. He is in the fight for his life and I know the prayers around here are powerful. His blog is:

Kris Anderson

stronghunter said...

Prayers for Kris, Sharon.

stronghunter said...

Jack Hanna on GMA.

stronghunter said...

Hunter is off to school on his bus. He was eager to go this morning and was the first one at the stop. I saw some other boys arrive to join him.

Lori O. said...

Good morning, SHIRLEY, SHARON and PAULA.

Prayers for Kris and his family, Sharon. Absolutely. What a battle.

My apologies for not having read last night's posts yet. I'll get there. Leaving work to get home early and sleep.

Last I heard, Kate has an appt with the cardiologist at 10:45.
Thanks for the prayers best eagle buds!

Have a blessed day! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

stronghunter said...

Prayers and best wishes for Kate, Lori. I think you have enough to do without reading all of the posts. There are times when any one of us just can't read everything. But there is always someone to step in and respond to another's needs. That is one of the many good things about this blog.

hedgie said...

Good morning, gang!

Lori, so sorry to hear about Kate's incident. Sure hope they don't find anything serious, but that they do find an explanation! How scary for you both. How young is Kate? So glad you knew the "CHEW" the ASA routine!!
Please keep us posted---and, of course, Momster prayers are going up.

Also for Kris, Shar. What a sad situation.

hedgie said...

Shirley, glad that all went well this AM with the bus stop switch.
Can't wait to hear what the school plans to do about the bully. Remind Kat that if they don't take it seriously, got o the school board.

DanaMo---glad your day was fun Monday! Too bad about the student losses...know how much the parochial schools are suffering in this economy.

Judie...you are such a cute pixie that you could never scare the students!!!

LOL, moutain-top cabin?? Been there, done that....the ponderosa was on top of the mt. Now the cabin is near the foot of the same mt. Nope-----it's beach area for me! If the economy would improve so that I could get for this place what it appraised for 11 yrs. ago, I would move down there permanently!

Lolly said...

Good morning! Sitting here drinking my coffee. Annie woke me this morning, first time she just wanted petting. She purred...in the middle of the night. Then a second time at a horrible hour and she wanted food. I refused! Then a third time wanting out. Grrrr! But, when she slept through the night I was worried. LOL

Lori, prayers for Kate. I am sure that was very frightening!

Shirley, did Hunter catch the bus at the new location? Hope so!

Dana...always started the first day of kinder with an average of 20 students. The first hour of the first day I would have help but after that just me. Never had an aide. Did have some high school helpers, but sometimes they were more of a hindrance than help.

Lolly said...

Woke to two claps of thunder, but no rain!!!

Lolly said...

Have friends on a hill top in Virginia. They used to have a home right on Chesapeake bay. When a storm came and their home flooded they headed to the mountains! Know that they were happy this week!

hedgie said...

Got more chastisement this AM about the dog on the interstate. I'm about ready to give up expressing my opinions. People should realize that opinions are like ---holes: everyone has one. It doesn't make anybody necessarily wrong. Free speech is only allowed when it's politically correct, I guess.

Linda said...

Good Tuesday Morning!

Another Powerless Morning for us! Ugh.....

Maybe today???

LORI - Serious Momster prayers going up for Kate. That must have been so scary for you both. You must be exhausted with NO sleep. I am guessing they sent her home? Kind of wish they had admitted her to observe her for future episodes.... Praying that there are some answers soon. ♥

JUDIE -Good luck on your first day back. I see you were up good and early, that is for sure.

MARGY - Your first day back as well after the break! Hang in there!

LYNNE - Hoping and praying today is a better day for you.

They cancelled the first day of school here because too many people and schools without power still. Bet the kids are thrilled!

SHARON - Will pray for both Chris and Kris today! How is Chris doing today?

Well, I'd better conserve power and shut down.

Will check in later!! Praying for power!

LOLLY - Our temps are beautiful. It's 65° right now!! Should only go up into the mid 70's today. Definitely bareable!!

ttfn............HAGD

Lolly said...

Have finished two mugs of coffee. Think I am going to head outside for a wee bit.

BBL

Lolly said...

Good morning, Linda! Yea, glad you are having good weather. 85 here and heading up above 100 once again. Groan...........

stronghunter said...

Lolly, Hunter caught the bus at the new stop. No problems with that. I watched from the porch.

Kay said...

G☼☼D M☼RNING ! Was that release of NZ and KS to be on cam ? Can't come up with it.

♫♫ Happy Birthday to B☺BBIE!♫♪♪

LORI, I'm so glad you were with Kate when that incident occurred ! Thinking of her this moment as she faces more tests.

SHARON, sad news about Kris--hope Kris and Chris will be Aok ! Keep us posted.

LYNN, I'm in the dark about the dog on the freeway story ???? Frank's kids should watch that video---perhaps they'll be happy to entertain the idea of a house a block or two from the beach !?

SHIRLEY, good for Hunter ! He's not letting the bully get the best of him if he's eager to go to school ! You asked about the new puter---can't say these numbers mean anything to me, but, it's a HP Pavillion, Windows 7, 640GB Hard Drive, DVD Burner... I have a nice big flat screen monitor so didn't need that component--my laptop was on a docking station and hooked up to the monitor, a full size keyboard and mouse. This puter came with a nice new keyboard and mouse. Get this..."Computer, Product of Mexico"/"Mouse and Keyboard, Products of China". What's wrong with this picture ? ARGGGGGHHHH !

Kay said...

LINDA, hope by the next time you check in it is with power restored !

LOLLY, LOL, if I'd had two mugs of coffee "outside" is not where I'd be headed ! Hope you aren't about to see more Dillo damage !

Holding good thoughts for JUDIE, DANAMO, MARGY and JUDYE as the work day proceeds ! Sorry I missed you all earlier. Had a fitful night and slept in this a.m..

Kay said...

BBL. Heading for the "beauty parlor"---it's haircut time. HAGD !

paula eagleholic said...

The still cam is back on!!

paula eagleholic said...

The eagle release was not on cam~

hedgie said...

Too bad they aren't showing the release live. :(

Linda, sorry still no power...:(
Hope today is the day! Did you let in lots of cool night air, and will the house stay cool for the day?

Lolly, I'm with Kay---if I'd had hot drinks, don't think I'd want to go out, either! Want some iced tea??

Kay, on Sunday I heard a call on the scanner that a motorist called 911 about a dog on the interstate. She didn't stop....and it made me angry. I posted a rhetorical "why" on the animal advocates FB page....and got clobbered for it.
Oh, yes....made overseas...very maddening, isn't it? But sure glad you have a new fast machine!

WE HAVE A NEW THREAD

Costume Lady said...

GOOD MORNING...
Wishing a good FIRST DAY BACK to all our wonderful teachers, children and to our Margy, who has had a pretty nice staycation. Lots of lovin James time, is perfect!

I so hope that Kate has had someting simple to take care of (like indigestion) and not a heart problem. It's good that Lori was there when her pain began, to help her. Asprin, YES! Good going, Lori!
Prayers for Kate and Kris~

I've been working on Capt. Gene's lap top all morning...it is so screwed up. I think I finally got his facebook cleaned up...it was very weird. I would try to get my facebook page and after a moment or two, it would jump over to Gene's facebook page???

I just go onto my facbook page and found this message from Karla:

Karla Wright Adams
We are here. A very nice state trooper id'd us, checked our pass and let us thru. Even though a 10-5 curfew is in affect. Things look good.

I thought she would go back down, to OBX, but not this soon. Hope she finds some sea treasures. She and Denise love 'Sea Glass', green, blue and red...hard to find.
I don't even know who is with her!
I'm sure she will be sending some photos, soon.

DANAMO, looking forward to hearing some stories from your little jokster (one liner)!

JUDIE, looking forward to your experiences this year from your wannabe adults:)
