Potted Plant Owlet is out and about. Will be learning to fly and hunt all too soon.
Lily and babes seem to be doing okay. She's not sharing them, yet.
Got some school work done today. Headed to the basketball game against Temple. Plan to stop by the psyc. dept. to collect my two boxes of student papers, etc. Class was good yesterday.
Will check in when I can. Meanwhile, the alarm is set for the Sandperson who has also agreed to turn on the night light. Wishing everyone a pleasant evening.
Hunter is home. I think he actually came in through the garage. I think I will check the doors. You would have to leave two or three doors open and the gate to the kitchen, but . . .
Good afternoon everyone! Watching 4:00 news and weather report - It may seem like winter is returning! I knew that the 1 snow only was too good to be true
I love watching Izizi (pot plant owlet) and Misty's 5 puppies!
Steve thanks for the fresh new thread! Congrats Janet on the feather Enjoy your evening!
Shirley - what would you really do with all your time if it weren't for Hunter lol ♥
Got Samantha booked with UNC Neuro Surgery on the 31st, opthamology on Feb 1, UNC Pediatric endocronology on Feb 6. So hopefully I will have some information and answers to my questions soon. She also had her xray today so I should know early next week if she for sure has scoliosis.
Hmmm, just checked the weather for our area ... WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH LATE THURSDAY NIGHT...
* LOCATIONS...CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN DELAWARE AND THE LOWER EASTERN SHORE OF MARYLAND.
* HAZARD TYPES...SNOW.
* SNOW ACCUMULATIONS...2 TO 6 INCHES.
* TIMING...RAIN WILL MIX WITH SNOW THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...CHANGING OVER TO ALL SNOW THURSDAY NIGHT. THE SNOW COULD FALL HEAVILY FOR A FEW HOURS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON OR EVENING.
* IMPACTS...ROADS AND WALKWAYS WILL BECOME COVERED WITH SNOW RESULTING IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. THIS WILL BE A WET SNOW WITHOUT MUCH WIND. SOME ISOLATED POWER OUTAGES ARE POSSIBLE IF THE HIGHER END ACCUMULATIONS MATERIALIZE. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL BELOW FREEZING AND ANY STANDING WATER OR SLUSH WILL FREEZE SOLID BY FRIDAY MORNING.
* VISIBILITIES...ONE QUARTER MILE OR LESS AT TIMES IN HEAVIER SNOW.
Looks like I'll be lighting my snow candle tomorrow at school! I could use a snow day - any day away from these kids this year is welcome, even if it means I have to make it up in June!
Jo, great to hear that Christine has some appointments lined up for Samantha and will get some answers!
Lolly, I suspect that, if Jack's doctor was really concerned about Jack's prognosis, he would discourage him from waiting. So, if he's OK with taking a "wait and see" stance, I would take that as a positive sign!
Lori, I sure am thinking about you a lot this week and praying that good things happen for your dad this Friday. The waiting is so hard when what we want is action and positive results!
Hey, has anyone heard from CarolAnne? She hasn't been on the blog in a very long time!
I'm getting all my stuff ready to go so I can leave tomorrow right after work. Thank goodness it's not supposed to snow until the afternoon! I hope you get all the snow you want!
Your right SANDI on CA its been since Oct since we heard from her I am guilty on not emptying my email and I have emaill in my deleted since Nov 1 and she is not on it at all
OK gonna head out to the second hand store to pick up a bike if they still have it I only came home to see if we had visitors and off course I missed it BBIALW
Van imagine what kind of day Thursday will be at school, Sandi. One year, when we were in a windowless classroom, I had kids wanting me to write a pass so that they could go see if it might be snowing. It was a small class, so we took a field trip to a window. Skirted around the principal's office, though.
I saw the SNOW reports all day long at work, looks like Martinsburg might be left out :(
Jo, Thanks for the Updates on your precious great granddaughter.... The prayers are encircling wide and far...
Glad the Eagles showed up, reckon that soggy nest was not much fun to stay around long for, just for that important event that is becoming so much more frequent: H-P !
Snow for many areas here and there and saw Spotsylvania mentioned often
Somewhere out there in all these clouds is a toddler moon, and it goes Full on Jan 26. Which means later each night so we might have some Moonshine if those eggs come along late Jan-early Feb. Full Moon Feb on the 25th and in March, the 27th.
Jewels got a Beauteous New Hairdo! Colorful and stylish! We took a rain check on our after-work since she came in at 0400... but we have rescheduled for Next Week, Same Time!
time for some "homework." Hoping that Judie and Shirley both enjoy their evening activities, basketball game and bridge respectively. And that everyone else enjoys their evenings also ! xoxo ttfn ♥
We do have an Anniversary today for Donna and Raymond Cox. You will hear from Donna mainly on FB. She was an original momster and also visited the GA zoo to see the baby panda.
Hi all! About to start dinner but wanted to say hi first. Great day...got a lot accomplished. Made to the Brookstone store and bought Michael's gift and then went to a dept store and got myself 2 pairs of jeans. Wahoo!
Came home and we got ALL Christmas in the attic! Including all the outside lights. Wahooooooooooo!
Now I can rally concentrate on cleaning closets. It is really sort of sad, putting some toys that Jack built in the attic. My boys are growing up!
Hi, Everybody! Nothing much has been going on except work & sleep! Got a whole day off tomorrow with NO appts. so finally scheduled my haircut I never got before Xmas!!! DUH. Probably have to cancel----further South than here! Oh well, I have homework from Chelsea. Left Park late yesterday, but could see an eagle sitting on branch next to nest----crummy visibilty, though. Also found out that the other pelicans last seen at the Park 6 years ago were white pelicans. Ours we saw on that Saturday a couple weeks ago was a brown p. and first ever seen there!!!!!We should get a prize~~~~like a COLA!!
Lolly: If you were on a "payroll" at your house, just think of all the $$$$ you'd make, especially in the Overtime ! Yay on all you accomplished today, and Every Day ! Those Jack-built toys in the attic.... will be brought out again one day, I just betcha!
Yes, Margy, maybe 15 years or longer from now. Joseph is 12, needs his college complete before thinking of marriage and babies. lol Wouldn't he die if he know what I was saying.
Jack did say that the Turkey consulting job is not looking too good. The guy recruiting Jack say that Turkey is no being very good at communicating so he thinks it does not look good. Glad Jack will be home however could have used that extra $ to help purchase a new trailer. Oh, well.......
Well Lolly...I am sorry if the no-go to Turkey would be a disappointment for Jack...but ya' know, these are important months for the two of you to be together♥♥
A fine meal as a reward for your hard-working day today, Lol but then again, ALL your days are hard-working and I think ALL your meals sound great regardless!
Had a terrific day. The Kzuri Jewlery group is a wonderful group to meet with and they are a lot of fun and efficient. Lots gets accomplished and it is clear in terms of our discussions. Our luncheon the 25th of May is shaping up nicley...The African Jewlery will arrive in April and we have two other events to also look after. It should be a good fund raiser.
Yoga was good.
Very cold here the last few days so am very pleased to be able to bundle up when I go for my walk.
Incredibly productive day. I like it that way. Its still chilly, but it is January and I rather expect in TN that is the way that it should be. No snow/ice though. Looks like the eastern seaboard is experiencing what TN had last night and for the past few days. SOrry ya'll.
Getting ready for work tomorrow. Back to it at long last! I am antsy and ready to go back.
Everyone, have pleasant and peaceful sleep. Good night!
Sitting here with my feet up, fire roaring away, and watching AI. Really do not care to watch until the final 10 or so, but thought I would watch tonight.
Bought Michael a Boogie Board. It is a LCD tablet you can write on and then press a button and it is gone. Hard to buy for someone who can afford anything and does not really have hobbies. Thought he and Zach can write notes to each other on it. They can have fun with it!
The group was very excited about my applying for CPP and OAS and they cheered me on as I told them of the process. Some are younger than I and the older ones filled their forms a long time ago and it was a different form so they did not have to deal with the question of where they were when they were 18 years of age. One very smartly pointed out that Canada has agreements with other countries and if a Canadian can prove they worked in a foreign country then out gov't goes about securing an extra pension for us. This one woman thought was the reason for the question...I smiled. It is all in how we look at things. Right now with the barcoded passports they know everytime we leave and we return and they might change the forms again for the future applicants. I liked that they were so very supportive of me when I told them about my applications. Good friends.
THIS IS FROM FACEBOOK Carol Flaer SenechalEAGLE ON ALLIANCE Now this is important! Clearly, the methods being used to make Dad and the Missus leave the Garden are not working. They have removed three nests, they are using paintball guns and lights, they have modified the trees and our wonderful eagles are staying put. The USDA and the city have come to realize this isn't working. So starting yesterday I believe the city has given the USDA permission pick up on its harassment efforts to include times when the Garden is open. They will still be using the same techniques, PB guns, lights, noise, modifying trees, etc. but these actions will be taking place for all of us to see. The plan then is then after a week, to re-evaluate what they have been doing - the USDA and the city will meet next week to decide what happens next. Now I have to say that our eagles' attitudes towards protecting and remaining in their home territory is what drives me. And it drives all of us to continue to EAGLE ON!!! We need boots on the ground this week and weekend at the Garden to document what is happening. I will be out there. Who is with me????? Don't panic please - no wringing of hands! Our eagles are very smart. They have held out this far haven't they. They are teaching US how to EAGLE ON!!!!!

I guess they are going to go and video or they are suggesting making it a good news piece so some one if you all have eagle alliance you ought to read what they are saying It just breaks my heart to read and know nothing we can do about it Life sucks
ICE on everything here, except the roads, and just enough to only bring down SOME branches, but more than enough for a winter fairyland look to the world! I have pics on FB.
I'm secretly thrilled that Jack may not be going to Turkey after all!
This is one of the comments I had mentioned building a nest and this is the response I feel so much better will see if I can find out more
Les Mclean Judy Eddy Plans are well under way and trees have been selected for building an alternative nest for them on private land. Waiting for a few more details, that's all...
Doctor appointment was nothing but good news. After 4 xrays, Dr. Knutson says my new knee has healed perfectly! Other knee has only a tiny bit of arthritis and shouldn't bother me for a looong time:) Anything interesting happen with our Royal Pair today?
Hitting the hay early this evening Good night, love and blessings to all♥
Back from bridge. It was one of those dark, rainy nights. So hard to see the lanes in the highway. Hated it. Thank goodness, coming home was easier. I have a longer drive than anyone else, so they asked me when I wanted to quit for the night. I opted for earlier rather than later.
Well I'm calling it a day SED ♥AOYP See ya in the am ☼ at Sycamore Sunrise Cyber Cafe Bless this Nest and all ♀ ♥ ♂ whom watch it at Sycamore Palace Healing thoughts for those in need
"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone is fighting some kind of battle."
Good morning my eagle friends!!! Another rainy one here, but I'm hoping to see a change!
Lynne, a snow candle is any white colored candle that you designate to be good luck for bringing about snow. Teachers burn them in their classrooms whenever snow is forecast. They rarely work but, if they are of the scented variety, they make the school smell very nice! =) There are other school superstitions that "encourage" snow to fall, like wearing your pajamas inside out when you go to bed and sleeping with your head at the foot of the bed. Again, there is very little actual data to support that any of this works, but it's fun! Shirley is right that the kids will be bonkers today, just with the forecast of snow!!
Lori, safe travels for you this afternoon!!
Prayers for all of the needs on our blog. Make it a great day!
Super Knee Knews, Wanda! I wouldn't have figured anything less for you...because you did as you were instructed to, and had Father Captain Warden Gene to Help too ☺♥
Best wishes back to the work days, Janet...sounds like you packed a punch on your days off
xoxo Safe Travels to All today, especially Lori heading out right after work !
Just found out that Hunter is off from school this afternoon, tomorrow, and Monday for semester break. So, we do not have to worry about whether or not there will be a snow day.
Used to tell my students to turn their pajamas inside out and go outdoors barefoot and dance around on one foot, or some such thing. Fortunately, I had high school kids. Probably should not tell little kids things like that.
When I was in Stafford County, the teachers in my department used to make bets on when we'd get an early dismissal for snow. Everyone put in a quarter and bet on a particular time. I think teachers can be crazier than students when it comes to snow days.
One math teacher who was next door to me for awhile used to assure the students that the buses were already lining up to take them home--just to fuel the excitement.
Be safe Lori Prayers for your Dad and all of you as well. I am tired today. Only slept restlessly for maybe 4 hours. I must go back to not reading the blog or FB walls in the evening. It kicks me into high gear which is not at all what I need to go to sleep. Prayers for all today. I am going to go get a snowthrower and see if I can put it together :-)
GM all. I managed to catch Belle's visit a while ago...yay..
I've been missing Carol Anne also.
Lori, i don't know how long you expect to stay in Pitttsburgh, but it is supposed to get much colder- but not a lot of snow. Prayers that all goes smoothly for your Dad.

Oh, Shirley, I will actually brush my teeth before leaving home and will make sure the door is closed.
Yay, Judie.
Hunter is home. I think he actually came in through the garage. I think I will check the doors. You would have to leave two or three doors open and the gate to the kitchen, but . . .
Good afternoon my eagle budlets!

Jack did say that the Turkey consulting job is not looking too good. The guy recruiting Jack say that Turkey is no being very good at communicating so he thinks it does not look good. Glad Jack will be home however could have used that extra $ to help purchase a new trailer. Oh, well.......
Evening, all!
Gotta read and catch up.
Well Lolly...I am sorry if the no-go to Turkey would be a disappointment for Jack...but ya' know, these are important months for the two of you to be together♥♥

Hi!
Happy anniversary, Donna.
Back from bridge. It was one of those dark, rainy nights. So hard to see the lanes in the highway. Hated it. Thank goodness, coming home was easier. I have a longer drive than anyone else, so they asked me when I wanted to quit for the night. I opted for earlier rather than later.
Good news JUDYE for nest on private land...how will they get the eagles there though?
Goodnight to all who are headed to the pillows AOYP SED

We have been watching a recording of Downton Abbey. Jack and I both are enjoying that program. We missed some of season 1 and that is what we watched.
Heading towards going to bed.
I am out of the closet for tonight, but back in tomorrow! lol
Night all! SED!!!
Good morning my eagle friends!!! Another rainy one here, but I'm hoping to see a change!
Lynne, a snow candle is any white colored candle that you designate to be good luck for bringing about snow. Teachers burn them in their classrooms whenever snow is forecast. They rarely work but, if they are of the scented variety, they make the school smell very nice! =) There are other school superstitions that "encourage" snow to fall, like wearing your pajamas inside out when you go to bed and sleeping with your head at the foot of the bed. Again, there is very little actual data to support that any of this works, but it's fun! Shirley is right that the kids will be bonkers today, just with the forecast of snow!!
Lori, safe travels for you this afternoon!!
Prayers for all of the needs on our blog. Make it a great day!
good morning all. all this snow talk, and none here. west of here is getting hit, though.

Good morning,
Just found out that Hunter is off from school this afternoon, tomorrow, and Monday for semester break. So, we do not have to worry about whether or not there will be a snow day.
Used to tell my students to turn their pajamas inside out and go outdoors barefoot and dance around on one foot, or some such thing. Fortunately, I had high school kids. Probably should not tell little kids things like that.
Never heard of a snow candle, though. That's new to me.
When I was in Stafford County, the teachers in my department used to make bets on when we'd get an early dismissal for snow. Everyone put in a quarter and bet on a particular time. I think teachers can be crazier than students when it comes to snow days.
One math teacher who was next door to me for awhile used to assure the students that the buses were already lining up to take them home--just to fuel the excitement.
Gooood Morning Belle !
I think the other birdy making noise might be a downy woodpecker
Wel I have already seen more Eagle this morning than all of yesterday
Hope some of you can SEE our Fair Lady right now
Good Morning BELLE & MARGY!
Belle, Margy, and Lori!
Good morning to all of you.
Almost time to go make sure Hunter catches that bus this morning.
Not entirely sure when they will be dismissed.
Color at the nest.
Good morning, SHIRLEY, JANET & SANDI!
Leaving for PA after work this morning. Hope you're all okay in the snow. I'll be driving in rain.
Good morning my friends.
Good Morning More Eagle Pals
and So Long Eagle Pals...
workday looms....
(( All Day Hugs ))
curious that Shep did not show this morning, maybe he's food-shopping
okay bye
I See Ya' there T-Bird ♥☺
Travel safely, Lori.
Be safe Lori Prayers for your Dad and all of you as well. I am tired today. Only slept restlessly for maybe 4 hours. I must go back to not reading the blog or FB walls in the evening. It kicks me into high gear which is not at all what I need to go to sleep. Prayers for all today. I am going to go get a snowthrower and see if I can put it together :-)
Thank you SHIRLEY & GLO...one hour til I hit the road!
Hope you get a good nap today, GLO.
GM all. I managed to catch Belle's visit a while ago...yay..
I've been missing Carol Anne also.
Lori, i don't know how long you expect to stay in Pitttsburgh, but it is supposed to get much colder- but not a lot of snow. Prayers that all goes smoothly for your Dad.
Lori, safe travels for you. No rain this way yet. Hoping the surgery goes well for your Dad. Please check in with us when you can.
