Hoda, I had a Tastykake Tasty-Klair pie for dessert tonight - I buy one every Sunday as my reward for surviving the "ordeal" of grocery shopping. =) That little 4 oz pie has: 21 grams of fat, 25 grams of sugar, 48 grams of carbs, 75 mg of cholesterol, & 300 mg of sodium. There is not one nutritious thing about a Tasty-Klair pie. But I buy one every Sunday and don't feel even an ounce of guilt about eating it! =D I say there's still time to get yourself to the health food store for a brownie!! And if I lived anywhere near TX, I would be in my car right now driving to Lolly's house for a piece of that cheesecake!!
PAULA and you had to mention it...somehow my sweet tooth acts up on the weekend and on holidays...Protein for tomorrow and I will make my vegetables more creative this week...You and SANDI and LYNN are skinny so you do not have to watch your weight...however this is not my situation!!!I think I can gain weight just reading what is posted on the blog for food!!! LOL... and have you all noticed MISS LOLLY has not gotten back to us about her baking...???LOL LOLLY WE ARE HERE...WHERE ARE YOU? HOW IS THE BAKING???
Happy to hear the Rus is /hope is, home now.... wonder if there was any way to have the 32nd birthday party for Will and Susan.... or if it is postponed
Wealth of information on here, great food ideas....
Hoping the DanaWV is going to be okay, see that she felt poorly and went to bed a loooong time ago
New stamp series coming out on January 20: Raptors: Includes Osprey, Golden Eagle, Northern Goshawk, Northern Harrier, and Peregrine Falcon... A snail-mailer's dream! Great article in our local paper today by Scott Shalaway, all about stamps !!
and first class mail..,44-cents goes up one cent later in the month...does not affect the Forever stamps, of course
Loretta hit the nail on the head...about...not being on here so much, due to ...when cleaning up for Christmas, discovering so much that has been left un-done that needs to be done NOW....I am in the very same boat, maybe even worse... got lots on my to-do list for the next few weeks/months, maybe even years !! Wuold like to knock a big chunk of it out before possible egg-laying, egg-tending, and egg-hatching season...
Lynn Had to laugh, big time, when you told DanaMo to "put him in the freezer in case symptoms develop" knew you meant the tick, but had to think "Monte" LOL
JudyE: very concerned, and sorry, about what is going on with your work situation, sounds like you have your ducks in a row, with your paperwork about your limitations, etc... Praying that all will be okay, and that you can go on about your business as you have been for so long
Margy, thanks for the info about the stamps...might have to buy a sheet? Used to collect stamps a long time ago...they may not come in sheets any more, I'll have to check that out!
okay, little prayer story...seat belt passenger front side failed today...was twisted and turned on itself inside its housing... "Dear God, We can use a little help down here..." Worked! Hoarder here, carries so much stuff in the Blazer, including pliers and screwdrivers...worked it and worked it thought I would have to take parts of the door apart... my assistant, James, was a BIG HELP, holding the strap in place for me while I struggled, and struggled...after 45 minutes... we succeeded ! I'm not sure who was more excited, him or me... but we were both QUITE impressed that our prayer request was answered
Brrrr.... what a game pooch Nick is ! Sounds like a really nice week-end Paula...glad to read of this
I have one un-used American Kestrel one cent stamp left, and a few of this and that, but have many stamps on envelopes from cards I have received over the years, going to make up some collections here too, in my "spare time"..LOL... My father used to collect stamps, so I have some very old ones of his
guess I am kind of running off at the mouth here.... about to sign off soon...
very touched to read your posts from earlier, Wanda and know that your are STILL a good cook.... and a wonderful all-around person...
also want to add my compliments to Shirley on her Mystical Tree post from Saturday evening....very eloquent and touching...
and to everyone, I sure do care what is going on in your lives...sorry I don't or can't get on here enough to show support and interest....Know that I care.... always
Oh this water is tasting sooooo good, would be glad to share my recipe with all: The Springs at the Berkeley Springs State Park !
The Moon officially "goes full" at something like 0230 Monday morning...if I am up and about, like for frequent trips to the loo, I might just go out and do a little howling of my own ☺
Prayers for Wellness... with special extra prayers for Tori and Robyn, all the family and the Armada of Health Care Folks...
Hope that Sleep is Sweet for all, restorative, healing...remember, Germs Hate Rest...
Good Night, Precious Pals, thanks for your Friendship and Fellowship...
God Bless This Nest, and God Bless Us, Every One xoxox ♥
Well I think the Good Wife show tonight was good - fast moving! I'm trying to keep up with who is suing whom. That moon is full enough for me right now.... The nest is aglow!
Heading on into bed very soon. Prayers for Tori and her family & especially for her drs and nurses. Hugs for all ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Good save on the seat belt, Margy!! My Dad was a big-time stamp collector. We sold his vast collection for a mere pittance back in the 70's. He had about 6 albums that were 5" thick each. Foreign stamps were his favorites.
HODA, we do have some beautiful family members, but, in this avatar is pictured a 1 month old infant named Tenley. My daughter, who is now a photographer,took that picture, yesterday. I thought it was prescious...wanted to share:)
Sorry I got lost on TV tonight. The cheesecake is cooling, however I do not make the praline topping until tomorrow. So, slow down, Hoda, you have plenty of time to get here. Also, remember, I am in north TX so you do not have to travel the whole big state. LOL
Getting late! Been busy scanning old newspaper recipes for child. Page so big, it's in two pieces. Trick tomorrow will be getting it into one sheet! Sherry sent pic of yard where they've gotten rid of dead trees/ underbrush, etc. & I saw GREEN sprouts of grass I guess under some trees! I circled it & sent it back! They're spreading rye seed for now--supposed to RAIN in day or two!!!! One of my faves--the Steelers didn't win & I even hung my Terrible Towel under the TV. Time to call it a day, so Pleasant Feather Dreams & Prayers forv Good Health, esp. Tori,Robyn, Lynn, Rus, Wanda & any others in need ;>)
SOMEONE posted this on FB---but for the life of me, I can't remember who! I had it in a new tab, waiting until after my shows to watch it......we may have seen it before, but it's well-worth a repeat! Too Beautiful
Loretta, great to hear that Sherry is begining to have green growth. Wow! Yes, they say we are going to have a soaking rain. Certainly hope so. Supposed to start during the night for us. They are saying 2 to 3 inches for us! Prayers girls, prayers!!
Did you see where we went to see the Llano eagles this morn?
Oh, Lynn, do not feel sorry for me baking my own cake! I told Laurel I would do it! She was going to bake something. However, she is so busy what with working and taking care of her family. I really wanted to try this recipe too. Tomorrow I am making homemade pizza and taking it to Laurel's and that too was my choice. I want to spend my birthday with her and her family and she does not have time to cook. Hey, I will let Jack and Laurel clean up. LOL
Now that I went back to read some stuff,happy to learn about Full Wolf Moon, RAPTOR STAMPS!!!!! and dare I saw Food since Margy is fasting! Lolly, is the cheescake for you guys, or a special occasion? We may have time to get to N. TX!!LOL The recipe I was trying to scan was a chocolate star or wreath decorated w/candied fruit & nuts. Has a lovely picture, but STOOPID machine scanned black & white! I told it that I wanted color! I may take it's pic and try to stick that on there, too! (Another reason for no time for chores---'puter stuff plus I am NOT Dorothy Domestic!)
LYNN The eagle video was posted on my page by Vicky Connell via Rose Summers...
LOLLY so glad that there is still a chance to drive down to Texas for a party to celebrate your Birthday...LOL...you do have an AWESOME FAMILY GOD BLESS THEM ALL.
Good night, Wanda. Sorry about the Dr. Guess her cancer treatment isn't going well? Are they getting someone else in to re-open soon? What KIND of testing for you tomorrow? Thought you were just seeing DeBord...???
Calling it a day here. Back to alarm setting tomorrow---ugh! Sleep tight, one and all. Sure wish we had heard something from Robyn today. Many prayers for Tori, and all in need. Love you all.
Now I am worried...what will Joseph and Jacob think when we all descend on their house to have birthday cake at their place...???Will they know we are friends of their Grandmama, and will they let us through the door even...Jacob is the one who stayed up half the night to simply come down and hug Grandmama goodnight when she was last there... I think if LOLLY posts a picture of her family birthday event then we won't all have to go there and the boys can have more time celebrating their Grandmama...!!!
LOL Hoda! The boys will let you in and be nice and polite. However, covertly they will begrudge you eating any cheesecake, especially my sweet toothed Jacob. ☺
Thank you, Lynn, for the birthday song. You are the first to sing to me and I do appreciate it.
I am falling asleep. Time to shower and get this bod to bed. Looking forward to seeing you all here tomorrow. Bring your umbrellas!
JUDIE and ANDY have not chimed in with the night light... so on their behalf I set the night light for all who might need it tonight. The security systems are set and I will say good night, God Bless and sweet dreams
Hi, Everyone, Hi, Hoda! Thank you for setting the security systems and turning on the porch light! Wow, it's taken a WHILE to get caught up here! Sorry to say that I fell asleep in front of the TV last night, and never got back here.
Shirley, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to Will and Susan! Golly, prayers for Rus (and Rebecca). Glad he's back home, and all is well. BTW, Shirley, LOVED your Mystical Tree post!
Good to see Crunch Bob here again! Howdy!
Glad to see that Tori is holding her own. Prayers continue!
Lori, prayers for LeRoy! Hope this will be his forever home. Any chance the lady would take Bobby too?
DanaMo, is Boomer OK? Been praying for him.
WV Dana, healing prayers for you!
Margy and Loretta, know what you two mean about having a long To-do list for the old homestead! I'll be busy tomorrow trying to cross a few things off, myself!
Well, have said prayers for everyone, especially Tori and Lynn, and for all creatures. Hope everyone sleeps well. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]
Hi Andy and someone else who asked - Hoda was it? ... but the lady can only take one kitty being as she lives in an apartment and has to pay an extra $35 a month for a pet! She recently lost her cat of 11 years and seeing LeRoy and how much he liked her has really perked her up since she has been grieving for her other cat. Sad. This will be an excellent home for LeRoy.
Wanda, thanks for sharing your story of TGA...never TMI here. :) Amazing what stress and exhaustion can do to someone.
Shirley, did Russ make it home from the hospital last night? Bet he is happy to have that over with.
Hoda, I like Lynn's food philosophy - eat what you want but in moderation. It's the moderation part that's so hard, though! Good on you for avoiding the brownies if that was your goal!
JudyE, sorry you're going through all that H E double toothpick at work. Remember to stay grounded and don't get caught up in the politics of it. (((Big Hug))).
I woke up to get a cup of tea. I hope JUDYE is sleeping well and that things go well for her tomorrow at work...PRAYERS...
So pleased ANDY chimed in...
I hope we hear more news from ROBYN on TORI'S surgery today.
LYNN do let us know what time your appointments are for this week...your comment about setting the alarm tells me you have some morning times in there???Sorry I missed it if you had already said.
I wonder if I will be up to see the morning visit? I will go read a bit and enjoy my tea.
Good morning all! Still trying to catch up. Lots of talk of food last night. Glad I was asleep. I went to bed to read, Monte was watching football and I was trying to stay away from the food in the kitchen. I do so much better at home than I do at school. Isn't that awful. Then when I get home I just want to eat candy. I need to start a new habit.
Morning Lori, DMo and Hoda! Hoda, are you up early or have you never been to bed? Oh I know, you couldn't sleep b/c you were obsessed with thinking about those brownies you didn't buy! Need to read back, but in glancing, I see that it's Lolly's birthday so, happy birthday Lolly! Have a big piece of that cheesecake as your present to yourself!!
SANDI, I had a wonderful sleep and just woke up needing to have a cup of tea...no thoughts of Mocha brownies till you mentioned them...so I researched in the health food store recipes on line and they do not have them...I will just have to wait till the next weekend that is all!!! NO PROBLE!!!LOL!!! You all have to make sure you do not bring them up during the week...PLEASE...
So strange I never get teh blue writing on my screen...writing is in black and links are in red...I do not understand it... So sad that BOOMER puts his ears back when he gets scolded...it must break your heart DANAMO...
In Kindergarten in the USA do you teach in THEMES...??? This is how they do it here, so science and math and language all go from theme to theme to teach the principles on the curriculum...
OK, off to get ready for the day - will check back before walking out the door to see if there are eagles on the nest. Judy, good luck at work today! Wanda, good luck at the doctors. DanaWV, hope you're feeling better today - we missed you on the blog yesterday! DMo, glad Boomer is OK! When Bandit was young, he ate lots of stuff he shouldn't - vet referred to it as "dietary indiscretion!" Have a great Monday all!
Good morning Hoda, yes Boomer is pitiful. I do not teach in themes. I know some people do, but I have textbooks for all my subjects. I have tried to skip around in my books and line things up to make them more "theme" like but it just gets confusing. I have moved my science around from the way it is in the book, but for the most part my math and reading do not connect. There is some overlapping and definitely cross curricular, but not in themes.
Sandi-I wish Boomer would grow out of it. It does seems that he b rings them to me more than eating them these days, but we still have him throw up socks at times. He will be 3 in March, I wish he would grow out of it soon!
DanaMo, I would tell everyone that if Boomer throws up a sock, the person who that sock belonged to will have to pay $50 towards his possible vet treatment. Really!
The picture of our friends dog Charlie's scar really does the trick, Adam is very squeamish. Unfortunately, it was on my phone and it seems to have disappeared. I couldn't find it last night (the picture that is)
It is only another 1/2 an hour before they show up...am I right??? I m thinking I would go back to bed, but if it is only another half an hour I will stay up...
Well our candle site has two new countrie on it!!! They do not seem to be able to keep others from positng on our group's section. Very annoying indeed.
Good Morning, Judye! Hoda, I hope you've been enjoying some great tea. Sorry, I'm so busy this morning, but you're not alone anymore with JudyE here. :)
JudyE, sorry to hear of all the unkind things happening at your store. Keep your chin up and take all the good advice from your friends here who will always love you!
I have such a bad feeling that they will want me to open up my availability to 7 days a week 24hrs a day that is what they have been doing to others and I don't want that I told them along time ago that if the store was a 24hors store then I would have never applied for a job then I don't want to loose my two days off in a row to watch Jordyn
JUDYE I hear you on the concerns and if they do the 24 hour availabilty then your option is to explore other stores...can you do grievance with walmart or not?
COLOUR ON THE CAM AND THE PICTURE IS A LOT CLEARER. i LIKE HOW THEY ARE CO-ORDINATING THEIRHEADE MOVEMENTS...PRACTICING BEING RESPONSIBLE PARENTS...NOW WHAT WAS SHEP'SOPEN BEAK ABOUT?
I will be giving my computer to Eric at work today so I will be without one probably until tomorrow Will come home at lunch and take it to him then POOF SHEP
BELLE MOVES UP TO THE TOP OF THE NEST DOING MORE RAIL FIXING FOR A WHILE AND NOW JUST WATCHES......HE IS STILL ON THE BRANCHTAIL FEAHTERS CAME BACK IN THE PICTURE
Yes JUDYE that was a nice long visit...did you have your camera going... Oh NO you are going to be without computer this afternoon???how will we know what is going on with you and the situation at work...I might have to phone you...I do not think I can wait till you get your computer back.
and I won't be making any decisions right away I basically have almost three weeks I think the reason is our schedules are made three weeks in advance and I will have to work that and they will put me somewhere else with another schedule

Hoda, I had a Tastykake Tasty-Klair pie for dessert tonight - I buy one every Sunday as my reward for surviving the "ordeal" of grocery shopping. =) That little 4 oz pie has:
21 grams of fat,
25 grams of sugar,
48 grams of carbs,
75 mg of cholesterol, &
300 mg of sodium.
There is not one nutritious thing about a Tasty-Klair pie. But I buy one every Sunday and don't feel even an ounce of guilt about eating it! =D I say there's still time to get yourself to the health food store for a brownie!! And if I lived anywhere near TX, I would be in my car right now driving to Lolly's house for a piece of that cheesecake!!
SANDI LOL!!! 25 minutes to go
I however am on my way to TEXAS!!!I wonder if my little Toyota Yaris can make it all the way there??? TEXAS is HUGE and my car is only little...
Sorry, Steeler fans... :(
I think probably only a half-hour delay, since the OT was SHORT if not sweet. Normal start time is 9, so I'll be ready by 9:20!
Liesl was not happy with me being in the tub tonight....she whined at me the whole time---makes it hard to concentrate on reading!
Ooh, Snadi---those commercial cakes/pies make me gag! Isn't it funny how different our tastes can all be?
Paula sounds just plain HUNGRY!!!!!
Yea, Lynn, all that food talk made me hungry!
Hoda, you can always go back and get the brownie tomorrow :)
Hmmm there is truffle theft talk on 60 minutes...
PAULA and you had to mention it...somehow my sweet tooth acts up on the weekend and on holidays...Protein for tomorrow and I will make my vegetables more creative this week...You and SANDI and LYNN are skinny so you do not have to watch your weight...however this is not my situation!!!I think I can gain weight just reading what is posted on the blog for food!!! LOL...
and have you all noticed MISS LOLLY has not gotten back to us about her baking...???LOL LOLLY WE ARE HERE...WHERE ARE YOU? HOW IS THE BAKING???
GOOD WIFE TIME:)
WANDA Who is this beautiful baby on your avatar...you have the MOST photogenic children in your family...
You all have to stop it !!
LOL...
I am on fasting for bloodwork in the morning, mmmmm, water is going to taste just great for 12 hours !!
Hello Evening Eagle Pals
xoxoxox ♥
Happy to hear the Rus is /hope is, home now....
wonder if there was any way to have the 32nd birthday party for Will and Susan....
or if it is postponed
Wealth of information on here, great food ideas....
Hoping the DanaWV is going to be okay, see that she felt poorly and went to bed a loooong time ago
New stamp series coming out on January 20:
Raptors:

A snail-mailer's dream!
Great article in our local paper today by Scott Shalaway, all about stamps !!
and first class mail..,44-cents goes up one cent later in the month...does not affect the Forever stamps, of course
Loretta hit the nail on the head...about...not being on here so much, due to ...when cleaning up for Christmas, discovering so much that has been left un-done that needs to be done NOW....I am in the very same boat, maybe even worse...

Wuold like to knock a big chunk of it out before possible egg-laying, egg-tending, and egg-hatching season...
Got the live feed rolling in case the Wolves (not sure there any actually around these parts...)

Lynn
Had to laugh, big time, when you told DanaMo to "put him in the freezer in case symptoms develop"
knew you meant the tick, but had to think "Monte"
LOL
JudyE:
very concerned, and sorry, about what is going on with your work situation, sounds like you have your ducks in a row, with your paperwork about your limitations, etc...
Praying that all will be okay, and that you can go on about your business as you have been for so long
(( Hugs ♥ ))
wonder if Lolly's Precan Praline Cheesecake is going to have birthday candles on it....if there is any left tomorrow after we descend upon Burleson
☺
Full wolf moon, eh? Kewl.
Oh, had to let ya'll know that Nick went swimming today :)
Margy, thanks for the info about the stamps...might have to buy a sheet? Used to collect stamps a long time ago...they may not come in sheets any more, I'll have to check that out!
okay, little prayer story...seat belt passenger front side failed today...was twisted and turned on itself inside its housing...
"Dear God, We can use a little help down here..."
Worked! Hoarder here, carries so much stuff in the Blazer, including pliers and screwdrivers...worked it and worked it thought I would have to take parts of the door apart...
my assistant, James, was a BIG HELP, holding the strap in place for me while I struggled, and struggled...after 45 minutes...
we succeeded ! I'm not sure who was more excited, him or me...
but we were both QUITE impressed that our prayer request was answered
Brrrr.... what a game pooch Nick is !
Sounds like a really nice week-end Paula...glad to read of this
I have one un-used American Kestrel one cent stamp left, and a few of this and that, but have many stamps on envelopes from cards I have received over the years, going to make up some collections here too, in my "spare time"..LOL...
My father used to collect stamps, so I have some very old ones of his
Oh, my....the plot just keeps on sickening, doesn't it?? Love seeing that quirky lawyer back, too! She's one slick chick!
I love your prayer story...MARGY and JAMES WAY TO GO!!!
The moon is stunning out there...WOW full or what!!!I say full...

Well I think the Good Wife show tonight was good - fast moving! I'm trying to keep up with who is suing whom.
That moon is full enough for me right now.... The nest is aglow!
Heading on into bed very soon.
Prayers for Tori and her family & especially for her drs and nurses.
Hugs for all ♥♥♥♥♥♥
Sorry Steeler Fans! :(
I wished JUDYE would check in to say Good night...We are praying for you JUDY. Sleep well.God Bless.
Good save on the seat belt, Margy!!
My Dad was a big-time stamp collector. We sold his vast collection for a mere pittance back in the 70's. He had about 6 albums that were 5" thick each.
Foreign stamps were his favorites.
12 hrs. of fasting is a bit excessive, Margy!
Yes, the Good Wife was good!
Going to try to get some reading in before the eyelids close.
(((Hugs for all)))♥
GOOD WIFE, tonight, was extra good. Going to be interesting to see what the Ditzy lawyer can do to free Will of his charges:)
HODA, we do have some beautiful family members, but, in this avatar is pictured a 1 month old infant named Tenley. My daughter, who is now a photographer,took that picture, yesterday. I thought it was prescious...wanted to share:)

Long day for me tomorrow...more testing for EKG abnormality and infection, somewhere?
Have to find another Pain Mgmt. doctor for GG. Dr. Gallagher is no longer going to practice and GG is almost out of her pain pills:(
GOOD NIGHT DEAR FRIENDS
SWEET DREAMS
PRAYERS FOR ALL OUR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES
Goodnight, Loretta! Too bad the Terrible Towel didn't work for you. :(
Cool that the kids are getting some re-growth on their property!
Poor Lolly had to bake her own cake....I've done that before!
Loretta, great to hear that Sherry is begining to have green growth. Wow! Yes, they say we are going to have a soaking rain. Certainly hope so. Supposed to start during the night for us. They are saying 2 to 3 inches for us! Prayers girls, prayers!!

Loretta, the cheesecake is my "birthday cake". Hey, had to have an excuse to bake and eat!!
Good night, Wanda. Sorry about the Dr. Guess her cancer treatment isn't going well? Are they getting someone else in to re-open soon?
What KIND of testing for you tomorrow? Thought you were just seeing DeBord...???
Thanks, Hoda! I thought it was you, but didn't see it!!
♫♪HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR LOLLY,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!♪♫
Of course, that's east coast time....you still have one more hour!!!!
Calling it a day here. Back to alarm setting tomorrow---ugh!
Sleep tight, one and all.
Sure wish we had heard something from Robyn today. Many prayers for Tori, and all in need.
Love you all.
It came from Vicky Connell and that is who I was trying to give the credit to LYNN.
Now I am worried...what will Joseph and Jacob think when we all descend on their house to have birthday cake at their place...???Will they know we are friends of their Grandmama, and will they let us through the door even...Jacob is the one who stayed up half the night to simply come down and hug Grandmama goodnight when she was last there... I think if LOLLY posts a picture of her family birthday event then we won't all have to go there and the boys can have more time celebrating their Grandmama...!!!
LYNN why set the alarm? Is your appointment not in the afternoon? You do not have to see the oncologist tomorrow right?
LOL Hoda! The boys will let you in and be nice and polite. However, covertly they will begrudge you eating any cheesecake, especially my sweet toothed Jacob. ☺
Thank you, Lynn, for the birthday song. You are the first to sing to me and I do appreciate it.
I am falling asleep. Time to shower and get this bod to bed. Looking forward to seeing you all here tomorrow. Bring your umbrellas!

so on their behalf I set the night light for all who might need it
tonight.
The security systems are set and I will say good night, God Bless and sweet dreams
Hi, Everyone,
Hi, Hoda! Thank you for setting the security systems and turning on the porch light! Wow, it's taken a WHILE to get caught up here! Sorry to say that I fell asleep in front of the TV last night, and never got back here.
Shirley, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to Will and Susan! Golly, prayers for Rus (and Rebecca). Glad he's back home, and all is well. BTW, Shirley, LOVED your Mystical Tree post!
Good to see Crunch Bob here again!
Howdy!
Glad to see that Tori is holding her own. Prayers continue!
Lori, prayers for LeRoy! Hope this will be his forever home. Any chance the lady would take Bobby too?
DanaMo, is Boomer OK? Been praying for him.
WV Dana, healing prayers for you!
Margy and Loretta, know what you two mean about having a long To-do list for the old homestead! I'll be busy tomorrow trying to cross a few things off, myself!
Well, have said prayers for everyone, especially Tori and Lynn, and for all creatures. Hope everyone sleeps well. God bless, and goodnight! Love all of you! :o]
Hi Andy and someone else who asked - Hoda was it? ... but the lady can only take one kitty being as she lives in an apartment and has to pay an extra $35 a month for a pet! She recently lost her cat of 11 years and seeing LeRoy and how much he liked her has really perked her up since she has been grieving for her other cat. Sad. This will be an excellent home for LeRoy.
Wanda, thanks for sharing your story of TGA...never TMI here. :)
Amazing what stress and exhaustion can do to someone.
Shirley, did Russ make it home from the hospital last night? Bet he is happy to have that over with.
Hoda, I like Lynn's food philosophy - eat what you want but in moderation. It's the moderation part that's so hard, though! Good on you for avoiding the brownies if that was your goal!
JudyE, sorry you're going through all that H E double toothpick at work. Remember to stay grounded and don't get caught up in the politics of it. (((Big Hug))).
Afraid I will have to pass on Lolly's cheesecake since I basically invited myself to her Texas birthday party!
♪♪♪♪ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
♫♫♫♫ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
♪♫♫♪♪ HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST LOLLY,
♪♫♪♫♪ HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOOOOOOOOO!
FloBear sends a Woof Woof, and lots of meows from the kittens!

Good morning LORI.

So pleased ANDY chimed in...
I hope we hear more news from ROBYN on TORI'S surgery today.
LYNN do let us know what time your appointments are for this week...your comment about setting the alarm tells me you have some morning times in there???Sorry I missed it if you had already said.
I wonder if I will be up to see the morning visit? I will go read a bit and enjoy my tea.
I hope things go well TODAY for JUDYE at work.
I also hope WVDANA is feeling better today.
Pretty awesome to hear GABBY GIFFORDS recite The Pledge of Allegiance
Good morning all! Still trying to catch up.
Lots of talk of food last night. Glad I was asleep. I went to bed to read, Monte was watching football and I was trying to stay away from the food in the kitchen. I do so much better at home than I do at school. Isn't that awful. Then when I get home I just want to eat candy. I need to start a new habit.
Lolly

Andrea-thanks for asking. Boomer does seem to be okay. I guess I was wrong. I can usually read the signs. He did bring me a sock last night. Left it on my pillow. I yelled at him and he put his ears back and looked pitiful. He knows he has done wrong. Second time this weekend he did it. Hopefully, though it means he hasn't eaten any. I chewed Adam out for leaving the sock and reminded him that I could show him the picture of our friend's dog who had to have surgery to remove a sock. That surgery picture is getting me a lot of mileage.
Morning Lori, DMo and Hoda! Hoda, are you up early or have you never been to bed? Oh I know, you couldn't sleep b/c you were obsessed with thinking about those brownies you didn't buy! Need to read back, but in glancing, I see that it's Lolly's birthday so, happy birthday Lolly! Have a big piece of that cheesecake as your present to yourself!!
Lynn- one of the flying labs is usually lying next to the tub when I am in it, or they just wait for me on the bed! LOL!
LOL Margy and Lynn-Adam didn't fit in the freezer.
SANDI, I had a wonderful sleep and just woke up needing to have a cup of tea...no thoughts of Mocha brownies till you mentioned them...so I researched in the health food store recipes on line and they do not have them...I will just have to wait till the next weekend that is all!!! NO PROBLE!!!LOL!!! You all have to make sure you do not bring them up during the week...PLEASE...
Okay enough of the blue this morning. I meant to just put it on the persons name. Sorry folks.
Need more coffee. That must be the problem.
Working on lesson plans. Got to caught up in the blog and can't believe I've been up 45 minutes already. Geez...
So strange I never get teh blue writing on my screen...writing is in black and links are in red...I do not understand it...
So sad that BOOMER puts his ears back when he gets scolded...it must break your heart DANAMO...
In Kindergarten in the USA do you teach in THEMES...??? This is how they do it here, so science and math and language all go from theme to theme to teach the principles on the curriculum...
LORI must be very busy...she has not been on for a while. I appreciated the sunrise and sunset information...
The nest is so beautiful in the moon light...it must be clear over there...
I wonder if MARGY got up to see the full moon?
OK, off to get ready for the day - will check back before walking out the door to see if there are eagles on the nest.
Judy, good luck at work today!
Wanda, good luck at the doctors.
DanaWV, hope you're feeling better today - we missed you on the blog yesterday!
DMo, glad Boomer is OK! When Bandit was young, he ate lots of stuff he shouldn't - vet referred to it as "dietary indiscretion!"
Have a great Monday all!
You too SANDI I hope you have a great Monday and a hassle free school week...
Good morning Hoda, yes Boomer is pitiful. I do not teach in themes. I know some people do, but I have textbooks for all my subjects. I have tried to skip around in my books and line things up to make them more "theme" like but it just gets confusing. I have moved my science around from the way it is in the book, but for the most part my math and reading do not connect. There is some overlapping and definitely cross curricular, but not in themes.
Sandi-I wish Boomer would grow out of it. It does seems that he b rings them to me more than eating them these days, but we still have him throw up socks at times. He will be 3 in March, I wish he would grow out of it soon!
That is so weird...I checked the blog at 5:40 to see if anyone had checked in and there was nothing new!
Good Morning HODA, DandMo, Sandi!
DanaMo, I would tell everyone that if Boomer throws up a sock, the person who that sock belonged to will have to pay $50 towards his possible vet treatment. Really!
Lori-Maybe you didn't refresh?
I would love to charge them, unfortunately the one's whose socks he usually gets don't have money$$$
The picture of our friends dog Charlie's scar really does the trick, Adam is very squeamish. Unfortunately, it was on my phone and it seems to have disappeared. I couldn't find it last night (the picture that is)
Okay, Dmo, then put them on pooper scooper duty checking for socks!
Better go wake people up. I am really not feeling it this morning!!
Are you working out this morning DMO?
It is only another 1/2 an hour before they show up...am I right??? I m thinking I would go back to bed, but if it is only another half an hour I will stay up...
Could be less than half an hour, Hoda.
Thanks LORI I will stay up then...DANAMO said she was working on lesson plans before she went to wake up her children
I wished JUDYE would chime in so she would know we are all supporting her before she goes to work...
Well our candle site has two new countrie on it!!! They do not seem to be able to keep others from positng on our group's section. Very annoying indeed.
G☺☺d M☼rning eagle buds Wow do I have lots to read this am again Chatty bunch are we
Good Morning, Judye!
Hoda, I hope you've been enjoying some great tea. Sorry, I'm so busy this morning, but you're not alone anymore with JudyE here. :)
Good morning JUDYE...I am here too...good to see you and I hope your camera is ready...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOLLY I hope its a good one
JudyE, sorry to hear of all the unkind things happening at your store. Keep your chin up and take all the good advice from your friends here who will always love you!
ealge

I have such a bad feeling that they will want me to open up my availability to 7 days a week 24hrs a day that is what they have been doing to others and I don't want that I told them along time ago that if the store was a 24hors store then I would have never applied for a job then I don't want to loose my two days off in a row to watch Jordyn

belle alone now here is is again
she is picking at a stick at 6 he is moving a stick to her she takes it now the action begins
WHITE FEATHER FLOATED BY AND HE RETURNS AFTER HE DEFENDED THE NEST ...WHAT A WONDERFUL RITUAL IT ALL IS...NOW BOTH DOING NESTORATIONS...
