Thanks Steve for the new thread. As you can see we were busy reporting.

To all those that want to know what is going on around Red's (Bill's) area go to the other thread.

Thanks for the call over (:

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Good morning my eagle budlets.

Update on Nila:
The doctor told her family yesterday that she has 1-2 weeks left. Her organs are shutting down. I talked to her on the phone this morning and asked her how she was. Her answer? I'm doing pretty good. How are you?

They were going to move her to a regular room and out of CCU but her nurse in CCU wants her to stay there so they can make sure she keeps her BiPAP machine on and doesn't get toxic with CO2 buildup. She gets confused really easy. Please continue with your prayers.

CarolAnne said...

Morning all,
Glad to see the eagles have been in and out and practicing the HP.
Baby bears have arrived, next up – eggs, then eaglets.

Wonky weather throughout the nation. Very strange, hope no one is seriously affected.

Here’s a fire dept story no one wants to hear:

My son lives in a small rural area that has a volunteer fire dept. Recently he volunteered for the dept. and took the training. This is the email I received from him:

Had my first fire call at 11:00 last night..... unfortunately I was the only one who showed up. The rest of the dept was to tanked up from their Christmas dinner/awards banquette to respond, so they had to page out another fire dept.

Scary to think that’s what you have to depend on in a fire emergency.

Stay safe, enjoy your day.

magpie said...

Hope today is a good day for everyone, for whatever is on your dance cards...

Lynn, hope transportation and treatments go well today,
Wanda, hope all your pre-operation plans "fall" (poor choice of words)
into place

Happy Birthday to Jo's Ed...lots of Happy Have Fun Wishes for the Day

and Prayers for all our new and ever-present Health Needs

Good morning,

Slept in this morning. Things are still icy here, but I might get Hunter to go with me for some bowling practice later on.

Hoda, I don't think anyone answered your question about school delays. (Maybe they did--I did a very quick skim of the posts.)

Most often the delay is two hours. If it needs to be longer, there is usually a cancellation.

Parents and everyone else just deal with it. I have wondered what I would do with the bowling. If there is a cancellation, I could take Hunter with me if bowling isn't cancelled. But if there is a delay, I might be able to take him a bit early and bowl. Otherwise, I might just miss bowling.

wvgal_dana said...

@CarolAnne My nephews are on the fire department volunteer.
The one nephew (they are all brothers or cousins) is on Ambulance and his wife is EMT on Ambulance. For instance when he had his 4th of July Party at his house. A lot of the volunteer fire department people were there. Certain ones DID NOT DRINK because they were on call. I don't know why that would not have been the case at the volunteer fire department your son is at.

stronghunter said...

Happy birthday to Jo's hubby Ed.

Hope your meeting goes well, Judie. Maybe you will find something interesting.

hedgie said...

Hi, Margy. Thanks for callover.
Hope your day is going well!

CarolAnne....living in a rural area presents lots of response concerns. Just ask Margy! My oldest SIL was a volunteer with our (then) smallest volunteer company.....it was always a struggle. My youngest SIL was with a larger company in the next county and they had a VERY active and responsive membership. They both were/are professional FF's, as well. Charlie was with the Air National Guard prior to his disbility. Shannon is with Fairfax Co., VA which is among the best of the best in the country!

Mema Jo said...

Good Morning, Steve and Thank you!
You are forgiven about your delay on a new thread but we made out very well.
Hubby says 'thank you' for all his well wishes.
Sure was foggy here this morning.
Hoping the temps rise!

Going to previous thread.......

Red said...

Good morning folks. I'm doing fine here. We had lots of wind and rain here but no tornados. Most of the damage is in the Birmingham (central Alabama)area.

Thanks for all your concerns though.

stronghunter said...

Checked out Webster University--I see that they have campuses worldwide.

hedgie said...

Shirley, now that Hunter has friends in the neighborhood, is there an at-home Mom that you could leave Hunter with if that need arose?

magpie said...

Good News Red !

hedgie said...

LOL---does anyone else fill every hole of a waffle with syrup?? Laughing at myself as I just did it!

stronghunter said...

My brother was a volunteer firefighter for awhile. I remember the phone ringing in the middle of the night and him rushing off. Often another family member offering support--answering phone, yelling to him, helping him find something, etc.

hedgie said...

Red---good to hear that all is well.

magpie said...

that you're okay that is, Red...sorry for any and all damages elsewhere....

Sharon
deepest concerns and thoughts for your friend Nila, and once again...your comfort is surely a blessing at this time
(( Hugs ♥ ))

stronghunter said...

Might be, Lynn. We are getting to know some of the parents. But lots of them work.

magpie said...

If I had waffles, Lynn...I would do so just because you mentioned it...
it reminds me that I still don't stop on cracks on sidewalks !

stronghunter said...

Good morning, Red. Glad to see you are okay.

stronghunter said...

Don't have waffles too often, Lynn, but I would not want to leave an empty hole.

hedgie said...

NBG eagles (whoever the female IS) mated this AM. Hope you can see this pic....it's a good one!
HP at NBG

wvgal_dana said...

Lynn will you please show that picture to Shep. He is getting better. I think asking permission though is NOT THE NORM lol

By the way GREAT picture!!

wvgal_dana said...

Red if you check out the other thread. You will see I was trying to check on you. Happy that you have come in to let us know you are ok. (:

hedgie said...

Temp is holding steady at 32° here....appears to be raining lightly. Still foggy.

wvgal_dana said...

CarolAnne when I was at those parties. It never failed at some point they would get a call. Off they would go the volunteers (and they had not been drinking in case they got a call).

Red said...

I fill each hole in a waffle with butter then pour syrup over it all. Haven't had one lately though as I'm still having sausage biscuits and gravy most mornings until I get tired of it. That may never happen. lol

hedgie said...

Thanks for the waffle support.....I thought maybe it was part of my OCD!!!! I don't step on cracks, either, Margy....that old childhood rhyme is forever ingrained in my brain!!! Maybe because my Dad's arthritic crippling was due to a broken back when he was a teen (football injury).

Mema Jo said...

BTW - Paula I want you to know that I vote for Nick's advocates each morning

Squirrels and titmouse and Crows - big black crows are coming to the railing of the deck getting the peanuts!
Amusing to say the least!

movin said...



sssssssssssssssssssssssss

GooD MorninG, aLL iN
EagLE LanD.

sssssssssssssssssssssssss

Rain today in So Cal...but not quite yet.

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

movin said...

It's raining now on the Channel Islands though.

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

Mema Jo said...

Your darn right - I fill every waffle hole with butter and then syrup.
You all are making me hungry! I just ate
my PB banana, but a waffle sure would taste great!

hedgie said...

Jo, do you have a diabetic syrup? If you don't have any waffles, you could fix french toast for lunch!

hedgie said...

Hi, Jim! RAIN in So Cal on a Monday??? How depressing!!!! ♫"It never rains in California....."♫ I can't remember the rest of the words!

wvgal_dana said...

Darn just missed a picure of Jewel's the bear washing one of the cubs. You could see the cub. awwwwwww

Jewels said...

good morning from the work place... Jennifer fell down the steps on the porch ontot he concrete walkway/ bruised her back up she says... needless to say the girls are home since the fall and getting cleaned up made them miss the bus.. poor baby girl..for once they get up on their own and out the door and now this...

so sorry to hear Nila's updates. My prayers and thoughts are with them all.

hope everyone is managing this crazy weather pattern!!
Back to work I go!

wvgal_dana said...

@Jewels I hope Jennifer is ok. She is probably going to have a very sore back. If so should she apply heat or ice?

wvgal_dana said...

The wind is gettin up and blowing at the nest!!

Mema Jo said...

Hope Jennifer isn't too bruised, Jewel.
I think there were a lot of slips today.

Lynn, I use 'sugar free' syrups. They
really taste great!

Off to do my household duties -
Why does my kitchen table look like a
junk heap! Of course I know where
everything is - just ask me and don't touch!

BBILW

magpie said...

oh man Carolyn, sorry to hear of that....will Papa be back home soon....?

Should be "seeing you tomorrow" at work ☺

Jo...my kitchen table is the very same way !!!

wvgal_dana said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JO'S ED SINCE TODAY IS REALLY HIS BIRTHDAY

wvgal_dana said...

Yes below is a link and look at all the eagles flying and in the trees click below

Illinois white spots in trees and flying eagles

hedgie said...

Oh, no...my poor baby....I wondered how they were going to get to the bus since Charlie took Caro to work.....hoped they were going to use the 4-wheeler and that Jess wasn't going to take the car out the lane. And then this......tell Jenn to put an ice pack on her back......and take some ibuprofen.

hedgie said...

Jo and Margy----your tables are what we always called "organized chaos!"

magpie said...

can hear the sound of melting snow/ice at the nest cam...

movin said...

I could have been wrong about the rain, since it just got considerably louder ... and harder ... and when I looked outside, it appeared to have been raining for a while.

C(°ٿ°)D Jim

magpie said...

Lynn
That applies to my entire Roost !
ttfn xo ♥

Take care when you head out: Remember the Rule:
No Slips, Slides, or Tumbles....

hedgie said...

That's the link I posted a couple of weeks ago, DanaWV. Amazing to have so many in one place! The refuge lies within four states: Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois. This is where Glo is spending some time now, but I thought she had said Dam 13 was on the Iowa side. Maybe I misunderstood.

hedgie said...

Shutting down incase they show up early. Still need to put Liesl downstairs in her big crate.
See you all later.

wvgal_dana said...

Stay safe and safe travels Lynn. (((((((HUGS))))))) see you when you get back. Watching for any ice while walking.

Lolly said...

Good morning! 52 and chilly in the house. Need to do my walking to warm up.

Judy...Steve does not call the eagles by name. Shep is only our official name for the male eagle. Do not let it bother you that they call the eagle Ben. Just do not go there!

Sharon, you truly are a good friend to Nila. Prayers for her. Hopefully they will keep here where she does not get confused, though pain meds could do the same thing.

Listening to a wee cub squeak! Oh, I saw a cub for a second! It was clinging to one of moms faucets!

Lolly said...

Oh, there it is again!

Lolly said...

Jewel is licking it and just occasionally you get a glimpse.

Lolly said...

Well, going to have to leave this entertainment. Jack is ready to rake leaves. Will bundle up and head out and after a while working I will warm up and shed the coat!

Have a great day...and yes, remember the rule...falls are not allowed. Remember that Momsters and Dadsters!!!!

JudyEddy said...

Red said...

A few years ago I visited the Mississippi River area near where Glo lives and saw lots of eagles. I have put a photo of them on my blog.

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

Well no meeting this am when I got there Co Jennifer had already left I guess I looked in the office and didn't see the HR KenEllis either

Red said...

The Birmingham area got it the worse Judy. Just lots of wind, lightening and rain here. Birmingham is about 90 miles south of us.

JudyEddy said...

♫♫Happy Birthday♫♫ to Jo's Ed

I just say where RED checked in earlier also so good to hear you are ok I guess I should read the entire blog before I comment HUH OH well back to reading

JudyEddy said...

LYNN I fill mine with butter then peanut butter then syrup

JudyEddy said...

wvgal_dana said...

Something to know: Today 1/23/2012 is Chinese New Year.

Kay said...

Yep, The Year of the Dragon ! Celebrate by taking a dragon to lunch !

JEWELS and LYNN, sorry to hear about Jennifer's jarring fall. On ice, I surmise. She'll need some of your special TLC for a few days!

STEVE, we appreciate the New Thread. NYC ? I'm envious !

SHARON, thoughts and prayers galore for Nila, her family and for you---such a good, kind and considerate friend. Amazing she's asking how you're doing in such selfless way ! I can tell she's a beautiful person, too !

RED, good news for you. We hear Alabama and the worries begin. Sorry for those folks who were in the eye of the storm, but happy you're safe.

I keep frozen waffles and sugar free syrup on hand----hmmmm good---and yes, all the "holes" must be brimming with "butter" n' syrup !

Kay said...

Our ice and snow is all gone. Expecting high wind and some rain late this afternoon, but it's better than that white stuff !

Jewel is being such a good mommy ! It's such a joy to see nature take it's course as she instintively knows just what to do.

JO, give Ed a big Momster hug for us on this, his "real" birthday ! Hope he thoroughly enjoyed the celebration last night.

Hoda said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JO'S ED.

THANKS STEVE FOR THE NEW THREAD. I hope you enjoyed New York.

Sorry Jennifer fell.

PRAYERS SHARON.

I understand about cluttery tables JO and MARGY...I have decided I feel lost when my table is clear!!! I do not kow where anything really is,storing away my life so to speak!!! Yet it is one of my chores today to clear the table yet again...do it once a month it won't get too bad...LOL

Hoda said...

Glad RED and family are OK.

JUDIE I hope the meeting has information that is practical and with vision.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

The eagle has landed.

Hoda said...

SHEP ARRIVED

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Shep.

Hoda said...

IN MIDDLE OF THENES LOOKING AROUND FACING TEN

Hoda said...

HE CAN NOT DECIDE IF HE IS GOING TO FLY OFF DIG IN CUP OR SIMPLY LOOK AROUND, FOR NOW HE IS LOOKING AROUND

Hoda said...

IT IS WINDY AT THE NEST

Kay said...

HODA and SHARON, glad you were on it ! I wasn't paying attention to the fact that the cam had timed out at 14:48---too busy listening to Jewels offspring and can't hear the sounds at our cam ! Very windy there.

Hoda said...

MOVES TO SIX RAILING AND INSPECTS THE TWIGS

Hoda said...

LOOKING AROUND STILL AND FEATHERS RUFFLED IN THE WINDS

Kay said...

HE'S HALF HEARTEDLY PICKING AT RAIL IN THE 6SPOT. LOOKING LIKE HE WANTS COMPANY.

Kay said...

THERE SHE IS !

Hoda said...

IN COMES BELLE AND HE GOES BACK TO THE CUP AREA

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Belle just flew in with fluff.

Hoda said...

DIGGING IN THE FLUFF AND THE SNOW SEEMS TO BE RECEDING

Hoda said...

THEY HAVE A LOTT OF ARRANGING TO DO ...BELLE WAS SCRATCHING...I WONDEER IF THE FLUFF HAS TO DRY BEFROE THEY LAY AN EGG?

Hoda said...

SHEP AWKWARDLY HOPS ON THE RAILING AT NOON AND BELLE MOVES TOWARDS FIVE

Hoda said...

BACK CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER IN THE CUP AREA...

Hoda said...

POOF ONE

wvgal_dana said...

SHEP FLYS OUT ONTO LIMB

Hoda said...

SHEP WAS THE ONE POOFED.
STILL CAM IS LOST FOR NOW

Hoda said...

OH DEAR I HAVE THE TWIRLY LINE ON THE LIVE FEED ALSO FROZEN

Hoda said...

ON REFRESH I GET THE ERROR MESSAGE UGH!!!

NatureNut said...

Good Afternoon Eagle Buds. Just got home from Hosp. Radiology for U know what. Will elaborate shortly.
I was asked if I had taken a tumble in the past 3 months. Yes (but I tripped over suitcase, no body malfunction). So I got a new Fall Risk bracelet. Asked if there were any Xtras, as some of my friends might need one. NO!
Anyway, this was a 6 month call back, because they saw "something" probably benign last time.After 2 mammos--one a "cone" type w/small circular cylinder to highlight area (& squish you more)& 2 ultrasounds, they started mentioning MRI.Finally one of the techs saw a tiny speck ON MY SKIN!!!!!Either a tiny mole,dark freckle,etc. That has been the culprit all along!!!!!! I went by my surgeon's nearby office (he would have been next on the list if they were still puzzled) to give them a good laugh, but they were gone for lunch!
If this is too indelicate, I'll delete. But sometimes the clouds have a silver lining! ☺

Hoda said...

STILL CAM IS BACK UP AND BELLE IS STILL THERE JUST LOOKING AROUND

Kay said...

I got it right back with "refresh". BELLE SITTING IN MIDDLE OF NEST SURVEYING THE SCENE. MAY BE WATCHING SHEP.

Kay said...

HE RETURNS !

Hoda said...

SHEP IS BACK CAME IN FROM THREE

Hoda said...

OH NO STILL CAM IS GOING WONKY!!! HORIZONTAL LINES!!!

wvgal_dana said...

Same thing happened to me Hoda. I just had to x out and bring up page again and again until it finally loaded cam.

Hoda said...

BOTH STILL IN NEST IN MIDDLE AREA.

NatureNut said...

WOW. Eagles still there!!! I finally saw them!! Getting some captures!

Lolly said...

I see two eagles!

Kay said...

LORETTA, Halllelujah for that "silver lining" ! This is a real day brightener ! They are supposed to cover all those little spots, moles, etc. with those little bullet stickers--guess that one got by the tech. ♥♥♥

Lolly said...

HP!!!!

Kay said...

OKAY, SHEP, DECENT HP, YOU'RE GETTIN' THERE !

Hoda said...

SHAKING HIS FEATHERS AND OFF GOES BELLE

NatureNut said...

HP minute ago w/squeals!

Hoda said...

SHE TOOK OFF FROM ELEVEN HE IS STILL STANDING AT ONE

Kay said...

LORETTA, that's not "too indelicate" at all. A good reminder for those who may be due to make that all important appointment !

Hoda said...

LOOKING AROUND AND WATCHING BELLE FLY ...SHEP SCRATCHES

wvgal_dana said...

Yep that was a good HP he decided not to announce and just hopped on.

Hoda said...

I missed the HP with camera problems...I am glad it was a decent job as reported...

Hoda said...

SHEP CONTINUES TO STAN AROUND AND LOOK AROUND

Kay said...

HODA, once an egg is fertilized the die is cast and Belle will deliver it no matter what the condition of the nest. They are not bothered by ice or snow at all. Those layers of feathers are great insulation and their brood patches will take care of eggs and little ones ! Mother Nature is amazing !

wvgal_dana said...

A tiny speck on skin causing all that trouble. Glad he seen it Loretta (:

wvgal_dana said...

Shep Flys Out

NatureNut said...

POOF!

Mema Jo said...

Whooo hooo! Table has been cleared
Most of it was trash worthy!
Now to rest for 10 minutes - before
starting another chore.

Those little but LOUD bear cubs are
something else. Can't keep the sound
up too high or for too long.

WOW! didn't read before posting - Need to watch the nest

BBL

Mema Jo said...

No fun watching the MT Nest lol

Lolly said...

I returned at just the right time. See that they have been here a lot today.

Loweeeeeeda! Great news and thanks for sharing!

Jo, Happy Birthday to your "e"hubby. Golly we can not put an e there for his name, maybe and L from your last name, that makes him a lubby!!! LOL

wvgal_dana said...

Hoda but sometime s in the past the snow has gotten to the eggs and we did not have a hatch. That is Nature!! and SAD :(

Hoda said...

Thanks KAY...I was thinking also of mold on wet grasses and such...but you are right once it is fertilized it will arrive in its own due time...

Judie said...

Home now.

Interesting meeting. A real sales job. Don't know. Feel a bit unsure about my ability to meet their purpose. Am to meet with two instructors. That may help to clarify. Summer course. Nine nights for four hours each. Pay is meager.

Thank you, Steve. Have a good week.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Mema Jo's Ed. Would that be HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PEPA Ed?

Home just in time to see the brief nest visit. Sure hoping for some eggs soon.

Sorry Jennifer fell. Hope she is doing okay with nothing more than a bruise or two.

Waffles? Each hole filled with syrup? Oh yes, fill and then fill again after a bit of butter!

Scary about the volunteer fire department.

Continue prayers for Nila's peace.

Headed across the hall to read my lecture notes for tomorrow.

BBL

Kay said...

So happy to get in on the nestcapades ! Now time to get some stuff done before PT appt. Too much pain over the weekend and will be seeing the doc again on the 2nd of Feb. instead of the 23rd. Meantime, am to ice the area for twenty minutes several times a day/night. Thanks, as usual, to our dear LYNN, for insisting I call in ! She takes such good care of us all !!!!!!

Wishing you all a warm and enjoyable afternoon ! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Mema Jo said...

Loretta - next time do keep on hand some
of those Fall Risk braclets! Just
saying - we may need them!

Lolly said...

Very good, Judie! I like Pepa Ed!☺

Hoda said...

Funny story Loretta!!! Silver linning indeed...

NatureNut said...

Sorry~~meant to say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JO'S ED!!!!♫ ♪ ♫

Hoda said...

OK JO's tble is clear...I will leave the computer on and go do some clearing of my own...LM

Judie said...

Lowreeda, glad you are okay. So worrying until all is determined no problem.

Lynn, know you've gone off by now. Hope the day is okay for you.

Hoda said...

WOW WHT A BIG STICK...EAGLE BACK AND ON RAILING AT ELEVEN

Mema Jo said...

Ok Lolly - Lubby is enjoying all these extra hugs attached to girlish names!
lol He really thanks you and I think he
very much appreciates all of you due to
the friendship we share......

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Somebody just flew in with a tree.

NatureNut said...

Jo, I'm saving them (bracelets)Have 2 now! I won't go back there for another year, I hope. Maybe some other docs have them! TEE HEE!

Lolly said...

Days we spend time raking and hauling leaves we do not walk. Get our excercise outdoors. Up to 60 now and sun shiney! Tomorrow afternoon the rain is supposed to start. Then Wed 100% chance on rain and they say several inches. BRING IT ON!!!!!☺

Hoda said...

IT IS BELLE I DO BELIEVE

Lolly said...

Glad you said something Sharon. My cam had stopped.

Mema Jo said...

Eagle has returned

Fixing the crib rails......

hedgie said...

I think you pic is of the same location, Red!!

Loretta.....very strange.....I have lots of moles....have never caused a problem. Thank goodness that was the suspicious part....but you should not have had to go through all this angst. ARGH!

Hoda---only 6 more treatments to go!!! Weekend off. Barring any weather delays, I'll be finished a week from tomorrow!!!

Hoda said...

STILL WORKING WITH THE STICK AT THE RAILING. Camera froze again UGH!!!

Lolly said...

LOL Jo! He may not like it when he knows we are calling him your lubby!

Lolly said...

I like all the new fluff they have brought in. Let's get rid of that snow!

Hoda said...

I AM NOT SURE WHICH ONE IT IS REALLY...I WISHED THE EAGLE WOULD TURN AROUND

NatureNut said...

Is that Belle? I can't see a spot.

Hoda said...

IT IS SHEP MY MISTAKE AND MY APOLOGIES.

hedgie said...

Lolly, if my house was that cold, I'd have turned up the heat big-time! Brrrrrr. I never let mine go below 70!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Belle just arrived.

NatureNut said...

Saw the spot---Shep.

Hoda said...

SIX MORE TREATMENTS TO GO...YEAY...
I knew you do not go on the weekends LYNN

Mema Jo said...

Lynn, you have done an exceptional job with your daily treatments !
Very proud of you and wish we could have
been of more help p.s. Lubby said "Do
you think we should go over again?"
I said, I sure do!

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Whoohoo on the finishing a week fro tomorrow!! You go Lynn!

Hoda said...

IN ARRIVES MISS BELLE AND TUGGING ON RILING MAOR TIME AND BEAKING!!!

Hoda said...

NOT NICE YOU TWO!!!

Mema Jo said...

Really shaking up that nest!
I wish Shep would always keep the black mark on his head. Makes it so easy to ID

hedgie said...

Hmmmm....peanut butter, butter AND syrup on waffles.....I will try that!!!

Drat---Beggin Strips commercials are running in full force again. Poor Liesl. She REALLY hates them.

Local paper was here when I went out, so time to read it now.

Mema Jo said...

I wonder what they are watching?
Do you all see the mark on Shep?

Hoda said...

JO SAY MORE ABOUT THE MARK ON SHEP...LOOSE WHITE FEATHER SHOULDER AREA ON THE RIGHT...IS THAT IT?

Lolly said...

Lynn, I was talking about outdoor temps. Did I say something that indicated I was talking about indoors? We do keep the house cool, presently 66 inside, and unless it is extremly cold we turn the heat off at night. We like to sleep with cool temps. Love bundling up under the covers.

Mema Jo said...

I guess I faintly see it - Wind must
have blown the other white feathers over
the mark.

I will place on toast PB Honey but not on my waffle. Well, maybe I'll fill 1
hole only with PB Just to see.

Hoda said...

THEY ARE STANDING AROUND AND WATCHING THE SKIES...

Lolly said...

It is nice to see our beautiful Belle looking cleaner.

Hoda said...

STILL CAM IS SO WONKY IT IS NOT WORKTH TAKING PHOTOS...

Mema Jo said...

Hoda - I meant the black mark on the Head otherwise know as a SPOT.

Lolly said...

Oh, I meant to say this morning that I just poor on a little syrup at a time. Do not like soggy waffles. I heat my syrup and do not fill all the holes at once. LOL Now I am hungry!!!

Mema Jo said...

I see the small white feather on the
right wing. It looks loose.

Hoda said...

BELLE DOES LOOK GRET LOLLY

Hoda said...

THE WIND IS PICKING UP SOMETHING FIERCE OVER THERE...

Mema Jo said...

Lots of eagle tracks in the snow filled
nest at Decorah!

Hoda said...

OH MY BUT THEY ARE STILL AND ATTENTIVE...

hedgie said...

Lolly you said: Good morning! 52 and chilly in the house. Need to do my walking to warm up.
11:51AM (our time).

Mema Jo said...

BBILW

Hoda said...

THANKS JO...I DO SEE THE MARK NOW BUT EARLIER WHEN HE FIRST ARRIVED BECAUSE OF THE ANGLE OF HIS HEAD I DID NOT SEE IT...I APPRECIATE YOUR ANSWER.

Hoda said...

Well my table is not getting cleared and my flat is not getting tidied and where will the day go if these two simply just stand there??/

OH VOCALIZING!!1

Hoda said...

MORE VOCALIZING...

Hoda said...

waffles with butter and warm maple syrup sounds DELICIOUS...maybe this is lunch for me when their Royal Highnesses leave...

Lolly said...

Ok, Lynn, see what you mean...that was the outside temp and it was chilly in the house but not that chilly!

wvgal_dana said...

Won't be blogging for awhile. Where I get one of my medications for diabetics. They messed up when I talked to them last month. I just called the refill in to find out I don't have any refills cause the end of the year came. I told them what the other woman said. They are going to call dr. tomorrow to get me a 30 day script. I'll have to take the paper work I'm filling out into the dr. tomorrow so he can do his part and they send it off so I can get the medication again. grrrrrr

hedgie said...

Long visit!!!!

Hoda said...

OH SHEP TURNS AROUND TOWARDS ELEVEN LOOKING IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS BELLE. HE THEN GOES BACK TO NOON

Hoda said...

SHEP TUGGING ON TWIGS NOW AND BELLE IS STILL ATTENTIVE...

NatureNut said...

Waffle talk reminded me that I brought homw lunch, but forgot to eart!!! I like oleo & syrup in all the holes, too. Don't have them often--mostly pancakes.

Looks like a standoff in the nest. Wonder if they're watching something and that's why Belle "spoke".

Hi,

I checked in awhile ago and saw our two in the nest. I did have to take the time to make a call to schedule a mammogram--was supposed to do this in November, but did not. Told myself that I must do it today, so now I have. Was actually able to get the appointment for Wednesday.


Poof one--Shep?
