I see what happens when I don't check the blog at night. I was on the phone with a very long winded friend last night and went to bed when she finally gave out.
Things are looking hopeful for our Belle and Shep.
I put a pic in album just now walked in from Kitchen and saw them in nest then he flew out and now he is back with no food OH come on guy bring her some food PLEASE
I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE I WAS CORRECT IN FLORIDA ALL OF OUR SHELTERS ARE NO KILL SHELTERS SO I WILL JUST DO DOWN AND GET A CAT I WANTED TO REALLY RESCUE ON YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN BUT I REMEMBER ON THE NEWS THAT FL WILL GO TO OTHER STATE THAT DO KILL AND BRING THEM DOWN HERE
NO I am not going to read it We can't be afraid all our lives The FDA does do inspections on food and I will not go there I am sorry thanks for the info but I mentioned it to Angie and she doens't want to read it also When I use to cook at a restraunt they said the fast cooking hamburger would cause cancer and I was so afraid and let it upset me Not any more there is a time we must just let go and go on with life I am sure you can dig up stuff on all kinds of food so I want to thank you anyway but will not read the article Sorry that is just the way I feel They say everything we put in our body can harm us we might as well just not live at all I hope you understand what I am saying but I am tired of being a worry wart JMHO
I see Susan get the comments emailed to her also I like it that way also so much easier instead of trying to remember where you left off at on the blog I really need to step away from the puter and get busy I need to do some cleaning even if my neck say no and it says no more reading for awhile
Good morning! Have read the blog through and I see no egg. That was what I eggspected!
JUDY, do you have excercises for your neck? It was in Dec. I think. that Jack was having neck problems and still does occasionally. However, he is very faithful doing his neck excercises as they really help.
You might know I have a very busy day today getting ready for tomorrow. Wish it was a lazy day so could just sit here and watch. I have house cleaning to do, groceries to buy and some errands to run.
Good Red Friday Morning to you Number One! and to all other Momster friends here this lovely morning!
We were hopeful but skeptical last night as we kept an eye on the white head tucked under her wing. I guess we are all in agreement that a 'test run' is a must! Now Shep- bring on a feast for our Lady Belle....
JudyE---I agree with you 100%. I will not be scared into not eating what I like, no matter what any study says. If we can't do that, we might as well just curl up and die. I like what I like, and I won't read that stuff, either.
DanaWV.....I only drank half-a-bottle.....it was ENUF!!!!
Passing through and I see she is still there And I know what hurt my neck yesterday at the park Jordyn wanted to see saw well I just bent over and pushed her up and down with my arms extended and that did it she is more than 20lbs but I had a blast doing it and pay later on it will go away after a while I am sure I got bedroom done now to mop the floor and last load of laundry is on and need to vacumn the livingroom and bed rooms BBL
Thanks for the agreement LYNN I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings at all just don't want to read it I was so upset when I worked at the restaurant it really bothered me that I may be killing people with cancer burgers
BTW. I am pleased with my small town hospital. Yesterday I went for routine blood work at 1030 am. By 3pm the doctor's office had called to tell me all my results were within normal range. I wasn't worried but always good to hear. When I lived in the big city I had to wait several days or a week for test results.
Ok stopping in again I see she is still there HMMMMM I am taking the rest of my Christmas stuff from the yard to the porch Only did half that day with Jordyn she didn't want to contiune so now I am almost done sooooooo pretty out in the 70s now
Watching our Lady Belle - Thankful for the sunshine today! Hope the moon shines very brightly tonight! With the infrared light anything white shows up very well - Like the white head of Belle. ALSO when the egg is laid you will surely know it by being able to see a white egg under Belle. IF the flugg isn't too fluffy.
Going over to FB and check out some friends & family.
DanaMO - I have Kaitlyn & her mom and grandparents in my prayers.
JudyE or others your not stepping on my toes. I will be eating a burger from Wendy's amd McDonalds!!!!!!! I do feel the same way. There is something in everything even stuff that is not food that is harmful to us. I won't stop living either. I keep my sugar where the doctor likes it. I still eat sweet stuff but in moderation. If I'm going to have something sweet that day. I don't have anything sweet the next day.
I'm living life!!!!!! (: Glad you JudyE, Lynn, Lynne1 and Lolly you watch more of what you eat than most do. Glad you get the things you like in too Lolly
I did delete it but I know many have the comments come through their email.
Oh Lynn if this Double Wide moves to another spot in this Mobile Home Court. It will be because I did not see your comment. I drank the "WHOLE BOTTLE:!!!! Yuck had to drank some fruit juice afterwards.
Do you think its instinct for the male to bring food or is it learned ????? Just odd that he hasn't brought any and I remember in past and other nest that they do bring it
Ok I need to get some decent cloths on not just a tube top and and tank top and shorts and head out the door I wonder what Angie and Jordyn are up too today Mommy and daughter time Angie just called and we are meeting at Biff Burger for lunch
I met people in the concert last night who are going to Egypt in March...I told them to cancel it is not safe!!! This morning two American women kidnapped as they left St. Catherine's Monestary in Egypt...they are reportedly released...crazy...this week saw bank robbery, kidnapping, over eighty peole dead in riots...why are people still thinking they should go there??? I don't understand it and it makes me very sad.

Robyn Ann Schonhans Toris sats are 99 to 100 still on vent but low setting, they will wait til after weekend to close her up and possible trache or no. Rest of numbers look good too
Toris sats are 99 to 100 still on vent but low setting, they will wait til after weekend to close her up and possible trache or no. Rest of numbers look good too
Tori is a little more aware today since they stopped the propafol (sp) and started her on another med to help keep her down and/or comfortable. Otherwise no change from last night which is good, I will know more when we go in to see her in an hour or so...
I'm betting it will be another day or so until we have an egg in the nest. I'm hoping it will be sooner, but if I remember correctly, Belle usually tries the nest for a couple of nights before she actually lays an egg.
DanaMo, Prayers for little Kaitlyn. Have put her, her Mom, and her grandparents on my prayer list.
Lynn, glad the "dynamite" finally worked! Hope you're feeling better this morning as a result. :o]
Hey, Jim! Good to see you here. We're in for it with the Santa Ana winds again today, I guess. Can hear them blowing like mad outside. Hope you're feeling well, and enjoying clear vision today!
I wish I could stay and chat, but have TONS of stuff to do today. Better hit the road running, so to speak. I will be in lurk mode as much as possible. HAGD, everyone! Later, alligators. ((HUGS)) to all.
Lynn, forgot to mention--I agree that our pups were MADE to make us fall asleep when they're lapsitting! It's apparently a "given." Sure not complaining, though! ;oD
Hi, Jim and Andy----our western contingent has arrived!!! Good to hear from you both....don't blow away with those winds!!
Hoda...he said 3-4 weeks on PET scan...it only comes to town on Saturdays, and if heavily booked, so I guess whenever they can fit me in in that time frame. Sure understand your concern about people wanting to go to Egypt. Hope they listened to you.
Lynne2---where have you been???? Was hollering out loud for you last night to look at the nest!!
Thank you everyone for the prayers for Kaitlyn and her family. She got out of surgery at around noon and is awake and eating. She did great. They will decide at 5:00 if she is going to be coming home tonight, but with as well as she has done it looks like she probably will!
Finally have a few minutes watch Belle in the nest and to catch up on the blog. I thought SHARON said Shep brought something small to the nest but then several others said he hasn't. Which is it? Looks beautiful at the nest today!
LYNN, the snow forecasts have fizzled for the Balto. area (I pay attention b/c of my mom living alone) so maybe Shepherdstown will just get rain. Let's hope!
DMO, glad to hear that Kaitlyn's suregry went so well - home possibly by tonight?? Amazing!
Every so often, Belle lets out a sound - has she been doing that all day?
LOL I was thinking the same thing, Paula. She was doing egg laying motions. Now she is looking around. Geesh, I have to go to the grocery store. She is bound to lay an egg while I am gone.
If you look on my blog under my wildlife, I just posted a pic of Nila that I took yesterday. Considering 2 weeks ago they said she had 1-2 weeks to live, she is looking pretty good. God is so in charge.
Shep did bring something this morning. She took it from him when he landed and did some mantling with it. It was only 3 or 4 bites for her though. She is looking under! She is moving. Do we have an egg?
I have returned from dr appointment with clipped toenails & I am please to see Belle in the nest. I need to quickly read as to when she came back and with what...
Thanks Sharon, so at least he has figured out to bring something. That's encouraging. Nothing is certain with this young man - we could be in for a lot of holding our breath and hoping that he has developed all of the instincts he needs to be a parent! On the other hand, I think he has shown a real loyalty to Belle - he didn't give up even when she wanted nothing to do with him last spring. It's all just wait and see!
My avatar is Annemarie and her best friend Olivia. I also posted some cute pics of her and her BFF on my blog. They have been together since kindergarten, but are going to 2 different high schools :(
Dropping in quickly to check the nest. See that Belle has flown the coop for a bit, so no egg yet.
Sharon, that's a fantastic picture of Nila--she looks great, considering what the doctors say about her. Prayers continue!
Quote for the day:
"START EACH DAY WITH A SMILE AND GET IT OVER WITH." --W.C. Fields
WV Dana, I have a quote for you, regarding your dance with your beloved Ed this morning:
"Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, LOVE gives us a fairy tale." -Anonymous
Okay, I need to head out to Walmart to do some grossery shopping. Going to check out a new Super Walmart in Fullerton. Hope it's a good one! BBL with a full report. :o]
Belle plays this game every year. Keeps us up all night, then flies off in the morning with nothing under her. I believe that is her signal to her partner that it is time to start giving her BREAKFAST IN BED. It has most always worked with LIB, but, we shall see with this new fella.
Had my last "easy" therapy this noon, will start more aggressive exercises next week...BRING IT ON!
Cool for you, WANDA. Glad to hear you welcoming the challenge!
ANDY, hope you like your new Super Walmart - I really don like ours anymore since they remodeled. Can't find anything!
LYNN, your optical migrane must have gone away since you are up and at 'em. Maybe you'll get to stay home all weekend and catch up on your missed time there with Leisl.
DanaMO, happy to hear you had an early day to end your long week. What a great perk!
Hi again, everybody. Back again. I felt kind of like I got up this A.M. turned inside out. Not too bad, but not right either, so I laid back down and had a nice nap (or add-on to last night's sleep. I feel much better now. TG.
The desert winds were indeed blowing in big gusts this morning, but right now, as I look out, they have died down to a more normal wind level. Maybe they'll come up again later in the afternoon.
It's a beautiful, clear, blue-skyed (sp?) day in So Cal today, and thank God and modern medicine I can see it all beautifully again!!
Not only that, both eyes are still getting better yet every day...e.g., this morning I notice I can see good detail on trees that are twice as far away as I could see in detail a couple of days ago. And I can now read the computer sized fonts easily...no mare enlarging them as much as would work on the site and then using a 6-10 power magnifier.
I "think" all the ghost images and doubles I had right after the surgery on the right one are gone; and the blurriness of detail in the left one is gone as well.
The world and its people are looking better and better day by day, and I am very happy about it.
I now have two very well contented cats in my house It took them maybe a half an hour and they are at home they are soooo funny Ben is 2years old he has a microchip he came from the SPCA the vet had him to help out with adoption and Girly is about 9 months to a year she is a spit fire and will keep Ben on his toes thats for sure they are already laying on the couch etc Pic and a short video is on blog
Just back from the grossery store. Also, went to Marble Slab and got a Vanilla/Oreo ice cream cake for Zach. He loves ice cream, so do the other two. They are not much for cakes. This family usually orders pies for birthdays.
Funny..Laurel sent me a message in fb. I laughed and Jack cringed. It was "So it begins.....Joseph 91 lbs, Jacob 94 lbs." Jacob(7) is 4 years younger than Joseph(11) He is still shorter than Joseph, who is skinny, but running 3 1/2 inches taller than Joseph at the same age. Jacob is NOT fat, he is just a BIG boy. I love him dearly, he is still just a little 7 year old first grader. Laurel does well to monitor what he eats so he eats healthy, NO packaged cookies or candy in their house. They do love ice cream!
Home for the weekend and see an MT nest! So, while we're all waiting for Miss Belle to put in another appearance, here's your dumb blonde joke of the day, courtesy of my former principal (who happens to hail from Clendenin, WV by the way):
A blonde hurried into the emergency room late one night with the tip of her index finger shot off. 'How did this happen?' the emergency room doctor asked her.
'Well, I was trying to commit suicide,' the blonde replied.
'What?' sputtered the doctor. 'You tried to commit suicide by shooting off your finger?'
'No, silly' the blonde said. 'First I put the gun to my chest, & then I thought, 'I just paid $6, 000.00 for these implants... I'm not shooting myself in the chest.'
'So then?' asked the doctor.
'Then I put the gun in my mouth, & I thought, 'I just paid $3,000.00 to get my teeth straightened. I'm not shooting myself in the mouth.'
'So then?'
'Then I put the gun to my ear, & I thought:
'This is going to make a loud noise. So I put my finger in my other ear before I pulled the trigger!
they have been chasing each other now since they have gotten here Girly is going to wear Ben out He plays back also so glad they get along I was worried about that
Impossible to know who's calling but, when Belle was in the nest earlier this afternoon while I was watching from school, she kept calling out so I'd bet it's her. Maybe she's training Shep - translation, "Hey you!! When I call, you come! Got it??"
LYNN, get your beauty rest, girl. You've gotta hot date at 10!
LINDA, you are SO bad!!
JO, I had to read the joke twice to get the punch line ... then again, I'm blonde! (PS - Only kidding about having to read it twice!)
Sandi - I didn't need to read it twice but I did need to stop and think about it before I got it. I did continue with watching Alcatraz - It's a little weird but I do like the characters.
I love watching the 2 eaglets at the Jordan Lake cam = rally stretched out!
Aha, I see my greeting gave me a good supply of much needed wax ! I hear that occasional eagle talk from the limbs above the nest.
WANDA, I agree with you, Belle is exhibiting her usual behavior in the day or two prior to actually laying an egg. Same thing she used to do with Lib. Now just hope Shep is a fast learner and can respond when really needed !
DANAMO, so happy with the Kaitlyn news and prayers continue.
JIM, wonderful post-cataract surgery news from your roost !!!!
Had so much to do today and so much e-mail I thought I'd never catch up. I was determined to arrive here about now in hopes of seeing an evening visit. Maybe Belle will arrive soon with plans of spending the night again. I have to remember to take a look now and then through the night now that she did that last night. A good omen !
JUDY, Ben and Girly are adorable and lucky to have you for the TLC they need !

Still waiting for breakfast, I see.

Lynn I'll be back shortly going to get the "dynamite"!!!!!!
Good morning! Have read the blog through and I see no egg. That was what I eggspected!
JUDY, do you have excercises for your neck? It was in Dec. I think. that Jack was having neck problems and still does occasionally. However, he is very faithful doing his neck excercises as they really help.
You might know I have a very busy day today getting ready for tomorrow. Wish it was a lazy day so could just sit here and watch. I have house cleaning to do, groceries to buy and some errands to run.
Good Red Friday Morning to you Number One! and to all other Momster friends here this lovely morning!
We were hopeful but skeptical last night
as we kept an eye on the white head tucked under her wing. I guess we are
all in agreement that a 'test run' is a must! Now Shep- bring on a feast for our Lady Belle....

Thanks for the agreement LYNN I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings at all just don't want to read it I was so upset when I worked at the restaurant it really bothered me that I may be killing people with cancer burgers
I have the camera recording and just stop it every 5-8 min just incase somehting happens LOL
I'm off to look at computers. Belle will probably lay an egg, but I'll catch the replay. HAGD everyone.
I'm with JudyE and Hedgie. I like what I like, with moderation, of course.
Good luck shopping, Lynne1!!! Hope you find a good sale!
Hi, Jo.....right you are----a test-night is normal! We may wait a day or two before Belle lays!
BTW. I am pleased with my small town hospital. Yesterday I went for routine blood work at 1030 am. By 3pm the doctor's office had called to tell me all my results were within normal range. I wasn't worried but always good to hear. When I lived in the big city I had to wait several days or a week for test results.
Judy, I agree with you...no toes stepped on here. I do try to eat sensibly.
Going to read the paper now...but watching the cam!
Ok stopping in again I see she is still there HMMMMM I am taking the rest of my Christmas stuff from the yard to the porch Only did half that day with Jordyn she didn't want to contiune so now I am almost done sooooooo pretty out in the 70s now
1047 still there How long can this take days????????
Watching our Lady Belle - Thankful for the sunshine today! Hope the moon shines
very brightly tonight!
With the infrared light anything white shows up very well - Like the white head of Belle. ALSO when the egg is laid
you will surely know it by being able
to see a white egg under Belle. IF the flugg isn't too fluffy.
Going over to FB and check out some friends & family.
DanaMO - I have Kaitlyn & her mom and grandparents in my prayers.
JudyE or others your not stepping on my toes. I will be eating a burger from Wendy's amd McDonalds!!!!!!! I do feel the same way. There is something in everything even stuff that is not food that is harmful to us. I won't stop living either. I keep my sugar where the doctor likes it. I still eat sweet stuff but in moderation. If I'm going to have something sweet that day. I don't have anything sweet the next day.
I'm living life!!!!!! (: Glad you JudyE, Lynn, Lynne1 and Lolly you watch more of what you eat than most do. Glad you get the things you like in too Lolly
I did delete it but I know many have the comments come through their email.
Oh Lynn if this Double Wide moves to another spot in this Mobile Home Court. It will be because I did not see your comment. I drank the "WHOLE BOTTLE:!!!! Yuck had to drank some fruit juice afterwards.
she got up and looked in cup i don't see anything
she is not in cup now
So Belle just moved out of the bowl, standing in the middle of the nest now
she did look at the egg cup like what they hay lol
JudyE, her butt wasn't even over the egg cup all that time....
she is just looking and preening her wing now
I got the part where she got up and looked in the cup on video
sort of sad that Shep hasn't brought food
@Paula after you have an album started and put some pictures in it in Photobucket. Do you download it? If so can you later add pictures to the album?
I am off to start my day!
I do not think we will see an egg today. Maybe tonight. We shall see!
Have a good one!
she is moving flugg around the cup after a wing stretch
house is clean Yard is back to normal post Christmas laundry is finishing up so I am done Yeah me
Good Morning.
Glad to see she is still there.
No egg yet from what I can see.
I have not read back yet so will go do so...
I hope all are well.
and that was getting up late I am debating turning on air I am sweating off course from working and it not as warm now as it will be later
Good for you JudyE now what are you going to do for some fun?
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
GOOD MORNING,
EVERYONE.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
C(°Ù¿°)D Jim
Pull up a chair in the waiting room with us JIM
Now Belle is watching out over the back of the nest....she's so pretty ☺
Do you think its instinct for the male to bring food or is it learned ????? Just odd that he hasn't brought any and I remember in past and other nest that they do bring it
Yes, she is regal and gorgeous, Paula.
Good Morning again, Paula, Judy, Jim, DanaWV...
Hello, HODA and Lolly!
I agree PAULA she is beautiful so REGAL looking I just bring my self to look at another nest right now

DanaWV---don't plan on going anywhere for a couple of days!
Forecast is for rain tomorrow eveing/night ending as snow Sun, AM---about an inch. Belle, either hurry up and DO it, or WAIT!
Optical migraine coming on...to sofa I go until it passes.
Ok I need to get some decent cloths on not just a tube top and and tank top and shorts and head out the door I wonder what Angie and Jordyn are up too today Mommy and daughter time Angie just called and we are meeting at Biff Burger for lunch
The state of Education!!! How sad!!! Can you believe this?
US students answer questions...not a spoof either!!!
I met people in the concert last night who are going to Egypt in March...I told them to cancel it is not safe!!! This morning two American women kidnapped as they left St. Catherine's Monestary in Egypt...they are reportedly released...crazy...this week saw bank robbery, kidnapping, over eighty peole dead in riots...why are people still thinking they should go there??? I don't understand it and it makes me very sad.
Wing stretch. She is so beautiful!
POOF
Poof Belle from three
And she just took off.
pROBABLY WENT TO GET SOMETHNG TO EAT SINCE HE HASN'T BROUGHT ANYTHING TO HER OK I AM LEAVING TO MEET ANGIE FOR LUNCH
OMG, Belle spent the night??? YAY! Has Shep brought any food??
Hi from work!
wonder if the female at NBG stayed all night.
I think that Belle tired of waiting for Shep to bring her a carry out lunch and
has gone for her own. This could mean
big trouble!

Lynne2---where have you been???? Was hollering out loud for you last night to look at the nest!!
Good afternoon.
Very optimistic news for Tori. Hope she continues to heal without complications.
Congrats Lynne1 on normal blood readings.
Maybe tonight will be Belle's delivery time.
Thank you everyone for the prayers for Kaitlyn and her family. She got out of surgery at around noon and is awake and eating. She did great. They will decide at 5:00 if she is going to be coming home tonight, but with as well as she has done it looks like she probably will!
Early dismissal today for the end of Catholic Schools week. So glad to be finished!!
Going to get this house clean now. I will be keeping an eye on the nest.
Thought I just saw and heard a clunk.
Oooohhh I got wax ☺
I am hearing eagles and there 1 is now! :) Shep.
Good Afternoon there Shep
Eagle in the nest, digging in the bowl
It's Shep
Belle just flew in.
And Both.....
He's at the 6, she is fluffing the egg cup area
Belle at the egg cup again.
I would like to see that egg cup a little more formed before they lay eggs.
Remember, I am new at this.....
Sharon, why is that?
She is in the perfect position to lay an egg.
I agree Sharon, they need more fluff...but then again, I can't see her feet!
No one mentioned that Shep poofed
Finally have a few minutes watch Belle in the nest and to catch up on the blog. I thought SHARON said Shep brought something small to the nest but then several others said he hasn't. Which is it? Looks beautiful at the nest today!
LYNN, the snow forecasts have fizzled for the Balto. area (I pay attention b/c of my mom living alone) so maybe Shepherdstown will just get rain. Let's hope!
DMO, glad to hear that Kaitlyn's suregry went so well - home possibly by tonight?? Amazing!
Every so often, Belle lets out a sound - has she been doing that all day?
Couple of small calls from Belle
Bell Calling Out.....
Running out to get my prescription--it wasn't ready in time for Christie to pick it up. BBIALW.
Here we go....
Here we go....
LOL I was thinking the same thing, Paula. She was doing egg laying motions. Now she is looking around. Geesh, I have to go to the grocery store. She is bound to lay an egg while I am gone.
If you look on my blog under my wildlife, I just posted a pic of Nila that I took yesterday. Considering 2 weeks ago they said she had 1-2 weeks to live, she is looking pretty good. God is so in charge.
False start!
Shep did bring something this morning. She took it from him when he landed and did some mantling with it. It was only 3 or 4 bites for her though. She is looking under! She is moving. Do we have an egg?
Out of the egg cup, now standing in the middle of the nest
I do not see an egg, but did you see her looking down into the cup?
Who knows? She is blocking our view.
I cannot wait to get my new computer tomorrow. My ancient one is so freaking slow!
I have returned from dr appointment with clipped toenails & I am please to see Belle in the nest. I need to quickly read as to when she came back and with what...
BRB
Don't see an egg yet.
Shook her feathers but I don't see an egg.
No, she wouldn't have come out of the bowl.
cup, whatever...
Think she's gonna poof
She moved a couple of sticks.
Sharon, great picture of Nila. She really is pretty and is looking good.
Looks like Belle is thinking of poofing.
And gone.
POOF Belle.......
Poof Belle!
Now I can leave for the grossery store. Later!
SHARON - You are so correct. Nila looks pretty darn good to me. I would never have known just looking at her picture..............
Somewhat strange behavior
Wonder what spooked her to leave..
Hope Belle returns soon.
Difficult to fly around with the
egg in your tummy......
Thanks Sharon, so at least he has figured out to bring something. That's encouraging. Nothing is certain with this young man - we could be in for a lot of holding our breath and hoping that he has developed all of the instincts he needs to be a parent! On the other hand, I think he has shown a real loyalty to Belle - he didn't give up even when she wanted nothing to do with him last spring. It's all just wait and see!
y feet have to go up!!
Being up until 2am and then again at 4am and running to dr has me beat.
BBILW
Making progress...
I was hoping I would check back and see Belle back in the nest. Oh well, back at it for now.
My avatar is Annemarie and her best friend Olivia. I also posted some cute pics of her and her BFF on my blog. They have been together since kindergarten, but are going to 2 different high schools :(
Just cleaned and medicated Frisbee's ears. He is not happy with me and boy do his ears look sore. Poor baby.
Treats all around to help me get back into his good graces. ☺
okay...I'm talking to myself.
Home....and beat the school buses!!!
Hi, Gang!
Dropping in quickly to check the nest. See that Belle has flown the coop for a bit, so no egg yet.
Sharon, that's a fantastic picture of Nila--she looks great, considering what the doctors say about her. Prayers continue!

WV Dana, I have a quote for you, regarding your dance with your beloved Ed this morning:
"Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, LOVE gives us a fairy tale." -Anonymous
Okay, I need to head out to Walmart to do some grossery shopping. Going to check out a new Super Walmart in Fullerton. Hope it's a good one! BBL with a full report. :o]
HELLO...
Belle plays this game every year. Keeps us up all night, then flies off in the morning with nothing under her. I believe that is her signal to her partner that it is time to start giving her BREAKFAST IN BED. It has most always worked with LIB, but, we shall see with this new fella.
Had my last "easy" therapy this noon, will start more aggressive exercises next week...BRING IT ON!
Great Attitude, WANDA!! So happy to see you and know you are coming along so well!! God is Good!!
Nila looks pretty good, Shar!!
Hi, DanaMo---glad you had an eraly-out day.
Great news about Kaitlyn!! Prayers continue.
Poor Frisbee.....:(
Wow---Judie, Linda, Sandi---every one is checking in!!
So we had a false alarm, huh?? Too funny!!
Hope you're right about the snow fizzling, Sandi.
Cool for you, WANDA. Glad to hear you welcoming the challenge!
ANDY, hope you like your new Super Walmart - I really don like ours anymore since they remodeled. Can't find anything!
LYNN, your optical migrane must have gone away since you are up and at 'em. Maybe you'll get to stay home all weekend and catch up on your missed time there with Leisl.
DanaMO, happy to hear you had an early day to end your long week. What a great perk!
I feel a nap coming on....need to rest up for a full line-up of new episodes on CBS tonight---including my date with Tom!!
I feel a nap coming on too Lynn.
Wanda, I agree, great attitude. Bring it on, take the challenge and run with it! ☺
Just got up from a nap - feels great. Go for it girls!
Hi again, everybody. Back again. I felt kind of like I got up this A.M. turned inside out. Not too bad, but not right either, so I laid back down and had a nice nap (or add-on to last night's sleep. I feel much better now. TG.
The desert winds were indeed blowing in big gusts this morning, but right now, as I look out, they have died down to a more normal wind level. Maybe they'll come up again later in the afternoon.
It's a beautiful, clear, blue-skyed (sp?) day in So Cal today, and thank God and modern medicine I can see it all beautifully again!!
Not only that, both eyes are still getting better yet every day...e.g., this morning I notice I can see good detail on trees that are twice as far away as I could see in detail a couple of days ago. And I can now read the computer sized fonts easily...no mare enlarging them as much as would work on the site and then using a 6-10 power magnifier.
I "think" all the ghost images and doubles I had right after the surgery on the right one are gone; and the blurriness of detail in the left one is gone as well.
The world and its people are looking better and better day by day, and I am very happy about it.
C(°Ù¿°)D Jim
I need a nap. Not very appropriate to do so at work.
Hey Tiger Lady....love the "bring it on" attitude!
WANDA....YOU GO GIRL!
Jim, so happy your vision is greatly improved!
Oh Andy that was so sweet "the quote" Thank You (:
Very happy to hear the news about Kaitly, even better she may be going home!!!
Jim so happy for you about your eyes. Sounds like you are in a perfect wonderland.
Good afternoon everyone. I see y'all are getting excited about egg laying. I have no doubts that Shep will deliver food when it's needed. Have faith!!
I now have two very well contented cats in my house It took them maybe a half an hour and they are at home they are soooo funny Ben is 2years old he has a microchip he came from the SPCA the vet had him to help out with adoption and Girly is about 9 months to a year she is a spit fire and will keep Ben on his toes thats for sure they are already laying on the couch etc Pic and a short video is on blog
My new family members have a new furever home
WANDA is an inspiration to us all! Love her!
Just back from the grossery store. Also, went to Marble Slab and got a Vanilla/Oreo ice cream cake for Zach. He loves ice cream, so do the other two. They are not much for cakes. This family usually orders pies for birthdays.
Funny..Laurel sent me a message in fb. I laughed and Jack cringed. It was "So it begins.....Joseph 91 lbs, Jacob 94 lbs." Jacob(7) is 4 years younger than Joseph(11) He is still shorter than Joseph, who is skinny, but running 3 1/2 inches taller than Joseph at the same age. Jacob is NOT fat, he is just a BIG boy. I love him dearly, he is still just a little 7 year old first grader. Laurel does well to monitor what he eats so he eats healthy, NO packaged cookies or candy in their house. They do love ice cream!
Hello again!
DanaMo, good news about Kaitlyn. Hope she gets to go home later on.
Wanda, so happy you have moved on to more challenging exercises. Congrats to you, lady.
Lynn, sorry you had a migraine. Hope it's gone.
Jim, we are happy for you.
Last look was MT nest. Maybe tonight.
CLUNK!!
JudyE, the 2 new little furballs are
really beautiful! I'm sure they will keep you good company. ♥
I heard something on the cam
Home for the weekend and see an MT nest! So, while we're all waiting for Miss Belle to put in another appearance, here's your dumb blonde joke of the day, courtesy of my former principal (who happens to hail from Clendenin, WV by the way):
A blonde hurried into the emergency room late one night with the tip of her index finger shot off. 'How did this happen?' the emergency room doctor asked her.
'Well, I was trying to commit suicide,' the blonde replied.
'What?' sputtered the doctor. 'You tried to commit suicide by shooting
off your finger?'
'No, silly' the blonde said. 'First I put the gun to my chest, &
then I thought, 'I just paid
$6, 000.00 for these implants...
I'm not shooting myself in the chest.'
'So then?' asked the doctor.
'Then I put the gun in my mouth, & I thought, 'I just paid $3,000.00
to get my teeth straightened. I'm not shooting myself in the mouth.'
'So then?'
'Then I put the gun to my ear, & I thought:
'This is going to make a loud noise.
So I put my finger in my other ear before I pulled the trigger!
roflmbo....great one, Sandi!
Judy, the kitties are beautiful. Love the video. They are two laid back kitties. Loved the stretching and tail wagging. Have fun!
JUDYE - So I see one of your cats is named after one of our "presidents" Ben??? LOL
JUDY, congrats on the new family members - they are both BEAUTIFUL!! Will they be indoor-only cats? How lucky are they to find a loving home!!
WANDA, as everyone else has said, great attitude!!
JIM, happy that you are again seeing the world that you were missing out on!
SHARON, Nila is proof that it ain't over til it's over! Maybe she'll prove those doctors wrong! Any new news on Joe?
I hear an eagle calling!
Sorry......I couldn't resist.....
I hear an eagle....
ealge call
Sandi rofl I didn't guess the ending on that one but then I'm brunette! lol
Love your new pics DanaMO
Yep indoor only I don't have window sills EAGLE CALL
THEY BOTH CAME WITH NAMES
BEN IS MIRCOCHIPED TOOO I JUST HAVE TO REGISTER HIM TO MY NAME
EAGLE CALL
EAGLE CALL
I WISH WE KNEW WHICH ONE IT WAS
EAGLE CALL AGAIN
they have been chasing each other now since they have gotten here Girly is going to wear Ben out He plays back also so glad they get along I was worried about that
I put a bunch of Jordyn plastic balls like ping pong balls down and Girly loves to bat them around I will pick up toys at work tomorrow
Impossible to know who's calling but, when Belle was in the nest earlier this afternoon while I was watching from school, she kept calling out so I'd bet it's her. Maybe she's training Shep - translation, "Hey you!! When I call, you come! Got it??"
LYNN, get your beauty rest, girl. You've gotta hot date at 10!
LINDA, you are SO bad!!
JO, I had to read the joke twice to get the punch line ... then again, I'm blonde! (PS - Only kidding about having to read it twice!)
no catnip needed here yet anyway
eagle calls
love it SANDI
Ah, JudyE! Very cool of you to adopt TWO kitties. They are beautiful!
eagle calls
Sandi - I didn't need to read it twice but I did need to stop and think about
it before I got it.
I did continue with watching Alcatraz -
It's a little weird but I do like the
characters.
I love watching the 2 eaglets at the
Jordan Lake cam = rally stretched out!
BEN is a lover already he keeps coming up for some petting and loving I love it ♥
Linda, you are bad. (But I laughed) I wondered about the names.
HEY...IT'S F-R-I-D-A-Y!!!
Heading up to watch the gkids tonight....and yes, I'm taking Nick. I didn't take him last time I went up, and the kids were really missing him!
Split happens, LOL
Good Afternoon Eagle Buds !
Aha, I see my greeting gave me a good supply of much needed wax ! I hear that occasional eagle talk from the limbs above the nest.
WANDA, I agree with you, Belle is exhibiting her usual behavior in the day or two prior to actually laying an egg. Same thing she used to do with Lib. Now just hope Shep is a fast learner and can respond when really needed !
DANAMO, so happy with the Kaitlyn news and prayers continue.
JIM, wonderful post-cataract surgery news from your roost !!!!
Hi Kay!
ok enough of the calling come on down to see us
Had so much to do today and so much e-mail I thought I'd never catch up. I was determined to arrive here about now in hopes of seeing an evening visit. Maybe Belle will arrive soon with plans of spending the night again. I have to remember to take a look now and then through the night now that she did that last night. A good omen !
JUDY, Ben and Girly are adorable and lucky to have you for the TLC they need !
