Poltergeist HUH

JudyEddy said...

I should be tucked in too but didn't take my pills until a few min ago
Belle is still looking to the right

stronghunter said...

. . . or The Exorcist, Judy.

stronghunter said...

So, maybe you can tuck your head under your wing, Judy.

JudyEddy said...

no it would be stinky there LOL
I hear the wind picking up and more flakes now

stronghunter said...

Can tell it is colder outdoors. It gets cold downstairs and my bedroom gets too warm because the thermostat is down there. Need to shut off the heat ducts.

Seeing a few more flakes at the nest, and they're blowing.

JudyEddy said...

oops yep that is what I meant

JudyEddy said...

Does it look like snow is accumulating in the nest now of just the light maybe

JudyEddy said...

ok I guess I should step away from the computer it has a hold of me

stronghunter said...

I am sure it is cold enough that those flakes are not melting, Judy.

JudyEddy said...

BELLE is up and sitting at 11

stronghunter said...

Well, she got up and moved around a bit.

JudyEddy said...

wiggle back in cup

JudyEddy said...

back up she is turning around and digging in cup and down again

JudyEddy said...

snow looks like its going sideways

stronghunter said...

Settled right back down into the cup.

stronghunter said...

Does look that way, Judy.

stronghunter said...

I need to call it quits. I think it is possible that Hunter might have at least a late start tomorrow. We shall see.

JudyEddy said...

Well I'm calling it a day

stronghunter said...

Forecast is for an inch of snow here. We will see what that will do to the schools. My older children were very surprised when school closed for two inches of snow when we first moved here from Ohio.

Lolly said...

I am back and it looks like the snow is coming down harder...sideways!

Belle is settled in the egg cup and looking to the right.

Lolly said...

Maybe Belle was just cursing the snow when she landed in the nest. And, she came down to protect the egg cup. lol Guess we could make up a lot of stories.

Lolly said...

Heading to bed now. God bless this nest, the eagles, and all its' followers.

Night Belle...night all! SED!!!

stronghunter said...

Maybe she was cursing the snow, Lolly. I am going to snuggle between the covers now. See you tomorrow.

Hoda said...

WOW!!!
JUDYE and LOLLY I am glad you tried your yoga stretch. It strengthens my back too...I had the experience of cracking bones settling in too LOLLY when I first started.
JUDYE we let go of the clasp after a minute with arms on top of head and spread our wings so to speak to bring our arms down. This is what one teacher likes to do. The other brings arms back to original position and releases...

paula eagleholic said...

Well, look at that Lovely Belle in the nest!

Hoda said...

We have an expression here The Bigger the Flake the smaller the batch...
those flakes look pretty big to me...so let us hope she does not get covered in snow.

Hoda said...

Lynne I would take the small house too. I keep posting on FB about small houses and if I find one I think I would even buy in Nelson. It is a good place, yet the folks around here have BIG houses!!!

paula eagleholic said...

I see the snow blowing on the cam...but doesn't really look like much accumulation if any.

Small places are good too, but that does sound awfully tiny, Lynne. Hope you can find something soon! You need room for that monster recliner, LOL.

paula eagleholic said...

SED, Love and Hugs for all ♥

Lynne2 said...

Yep, Belle usually spends a few nights in the nest prior to laying her first egg.....

...but if there is one thing we should know by now is that nature will fool us!

No snow here, bright moon through some very thin high clouds.

SO, according to my research, the size of that tiny house isn't even the size of a 2 car garage.

Lynne2 said...

Belle is getting powdered!

Want a big smile? Go back to Feb 5 blog posts as everyone was watching Belle!

Lynne2 said...

Best head to bed. Glad I go in late tomorrow, and actually we are closing at 5pm as Dr Baker is recovering from her TOS surgery.

Good night and prayers for all!

Costume Lady said...

OOPS...no sign off last night~

Even though it was in the teens at Soup Kitchen serving time, we had 70 hungry and cold guests. We served them Lamb Stew over buttered noodles, garlic bread and chocolate cake for dessert.
We had two pretty drunk fellas, one told me he was in love with me and wanted to meet me after the SK closed down...Pastor Eddie asked him what he was going to do about my big husband over by the wall...he then said "Uh, oh, I'll have to think about that!" Didn't bother me anymore after that:) Settled down with his meal and then left.

GG had an appointment today to get her do-done and I hated taking her out in these fridgid temps but I wrapped her up in a warm coat and scarf and Gene dropped us off at the store's front door. Not much walking involved...had her walker
with us and used it to push her along. She is pleased with her nice, fresh look:)

Good night dear friends, sleep well...Love for all2

SORRY*****FACE PLANT!
No garbage pale to delete it:(

Costume Lady said...

BELLE STILL IN THE NEST...HEAD TUCKED IN!

Hoda said...

WANDA Glad to hear about the soup kitchen. Sorry about the drunk chap. That some face plant I would say!!!

LYNNE NO that would be unreasonably small for one person two car garage is not for you.

BELLE is getting powdered is right!!! As LYNNE said, there is a snow accumulation on her.


I wonder if SAMANTHA has had her baby by now?

Hoda said...

Goodnight.

PRAYERS♥

DanaMo said...

Good morning.

Wow eagle spent the night in the nest. Guess it's Belle? Too dark to see, but that is what someone reported last night.
Just a dusting here. Not sure if we will get a delay or not. Waiting....

DanaMo said...

I'm going to be lazy and post the notes I typed up regarding the procedure and appointment yesterday.
Tumor and lymph nodes significantly decreased and was a very good response to chemo.
The kidney was enlarged because of the blockage the tumor caused not allowing it to drain.
This procedure will tell them exactly where the tumor is and how obstructive (how big) it is.
He will try to get into the kidney but may not be able to.
He will check the bladder and see if he needs to biopsy it as well.
This will help figure out the best option.
He has metastatic ureteral cancer which spread to the lymph nodes.
Surgery may not be the cure.
Dr. needs to decide if doing surgery will help and extend his life by removing everything.
There is no evidence that removing everything will do that.
This is not a textbook case. In fact, it is very rare, not even on the list of cancers that get reported on, only 1-2% of cases per year are of this type.
He will find out where exactly the tumor is, the size and degree of obstruction.
The procedure is a cystoscope, urethroscope and possibly a biopsy of the bladder.
MRI looked great.
Biopsy will take a week.
Will present the case on 2/4/13 to a team of experts here at Hopkins. We will get a phone call after that day.
After surgery will have painful urination, possible blood in urine. May leave the stent in to allow kidney to drain.

stronghunter said...

Mornin'

Belle still in the nest. Head tucked.

DanaMo said...

Those notes were from all that he said prior to the procedure. After the procedure this is what he had to add.

They did not biopsy the bladder, didn't see the need. Did take a sample of fluid from the bladder to test.
The tumor is 3-4 cm in the mid uereter.
Now we wait...and we are really hoping theyw ill do surgery. I think we were very disappointed at the possibility that they won't because that makes it sound like they wouldn't do anything. I guess Dr. MCCormack here in town would do more chemo. I think Dr. Bivalacqua is hesitant because of the lymph node involvement already and the possiblity of not getting it all, therefore not really helping.

stronghunter said...

Prayers continue, Dana.

stronghunter said...

Belle took her head out for a moment and re-tucked it.

stronghunter said...

Snowing on her.

stronghunter said...

Kathryn said that school's closed here. I had not seen the report yet.

DanaMo said...

2 hour delay in Hagerstown!

magpie said...

Pretty amazing, Belle being in the nest since the wee hours of the morning, always a good nesting/egging sign!

DanaMo said...

Yes, Margy that is what I was thinking.

magpie said...

I meant to say
DanaMo:
Your notes are like a doctor's -
Well done!! Lynn♥ would be/IS proud of you for sure...hope all the questions wil be resolved with positive answers;
Thank you for letting us know
Prayers continue....
Two hour delays all around here also

Good Morning, and Good Day,
Eagle Pals

OUT DAMN SPOTS, OUT !!!
EVERYWHERE ! You are just NOT
welcome, that's it !

magpie said...

Very happy that you have school delay and you can watch the nest for a little while DanaMo...
Welcome Back !

Special Thoughts also for Jo and the four generations of Lennox Family with various medical things going on these days

stronghunter said...

Kathryn is just now warming up her car to go to work. The snow is very powdery. Easily came off the car.

stronghunter said...

Thinking that I will just get back under the covers.

stronghunter said...

Retirement is nice.

stronghunter said...

They say two inches in Fredericksburg. Hoda and others in the northland must think it's funny that schools are closed and people are going nuts.

stronghunter said...

Belle is awake.

stronghunter said...

Now she's tucked again.

Sandi said...

Good freezing, snowy morning Dana, Margy, Shirley, and all my eagle friends! 2 hour delay here and still snowing lightly!

I see Belle in a snowy nest - looks like she's sitting! Hmmm! Ravenously hungry last night and now nest sitting - good signs! Just tucked her head!

Special prayers today for Jo - all day long - that your cancer is gone!

Also prayers for Dana's dad, Lori's dad, Christine, and all the needs in our blog family.

stronghunter said...

It looks like Kathryn will have quite a trip up I-95. Traffic looks to be a mess.

stronghunter said...

Prayers and every good thought for Jo today.

stronghunter said...

Nest is looking more and more snowy.

Janet said...

just a quick good morning. back to work today! :)

winter weather advisory again tonight, from midnight on. we shall see. the last one was a bust around here.

hoping everyone has a good day. will be thinking of everyone, hoping for new babies, great news, and healing, love and comfort for all...



Sandi said...

Have finally caught up on the blog - you guys were chatty last night!!!

Dana, I'm sorry the news about your dad was not more promising. I pray that the biopsy results show that surgery is an option.

Still no news about Rebecca's grand entrance into the world?! That baby has a mind of her own, doesn't she??!!

Snow has just about stopped here but there is more in tomorrow's forecast. Snow candle will be lit at school today!!

Belle is awake and looking around but still sitting. Oops, now up. Almost Shep's arrival time of the morning.

Make it a great day all!

Sandi said...

Shep arrives.

Sandi said...

And Indian River Schools are now CLOSED for the day! Gotta love living in a rural area with no money for snow removal, no sidewalks for the kids to walk on and narrow roads for buses! Me happy!!! =)

magpie said...

Wow Cobalt Blue !

magpie said...

Well one way or another your SNOW Candle must have worked, Sandi!
Yay for You !!!!

magpie said...

Best Wishes for a Good Day for Everyone,

Good Morning - Ground is snow covered and schools have a 2hr delay.
News from my grandson Robert : Water is broken finally, epidural is in, things are moving along quite well after 2 days of just hanging out! Can not wait to meet this stubborn little girl :)

Christine is hoping to get home Friday or Saturday and then return in 4-6 weeks for the gallbladder removal.

Mema Jo said...

Robert just called and Rebecca made her debut around 7 am All 6lbs and 9oz.

Everyone is well - 3 good pushes and there she was.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY REBECCA

Lori O. said...

JO, prayers for your report from the doctor today. Congrats on your new addition to the family!

DANAMO, praying you get good news soon on your Dad and that he will get the surgery!

So happy to hear someone spent the night in the nest, and Shep was by this morning! I really missed seeing the eagles while we were in Pittsburgh.

Very cold again here this morning in PA...got a dusting of snow last night here.

I'm missing home and all my critters! Will likely leave here Saturday, so I have Sunday to get ready to go back to work.

Love to all of you and hopes that your day is filled with joy and smiles!

magpie said...

Hallelujah Rebecca !
Welcome to Our Wild and Wonderful

T-Bird said...

Good morning my eagle friends.

WV sUSAn said...

Good morning, Thelma!

T-Bird said...

I'm thankful this morning that Eagle-Eye Shar found the power chord attachment so I have a computer this morning and I don't have to use my phone.

WV sUSAn said...

Ohhh, great! So hard on the phone.

stronghunter said...

Eagle materialized.

stronghunter said...

Shep.

stronghunter said...

Just hanging out.

WV sUSAn said...

Hello Shep. He's a busy boy this morning.

Sandi said...

I'm here! Good morning Shirley and Susan!

WV sUSAn said...

Hi Sandi.

WV sUSAn said...

POOF Shep

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Last year our first egg was laid on February 5 so it is a bit early yet.

WV sUSAn said...

Super Bowl Sunday! I don't remember Belle staying in the nest this early last year. These eagles are full of surprises :-)

magpie said...

well it might be just me,
but the still cam is kinda frozen
LOL
cold enough for it
the time on the image I have 9:27 am

T-Bird said...

WV sUSAn-we have the pro bowl this weekend and the super bowl next weekend. I can't wait! Who do you want to win? I'm going with the emotional pick of the Ravens. Can you imagine what this game does to the Harbaugh family?

Lolly said...

Good morning! Took a while to read all the comments. It was exciting last night when Belle arrived in the nest. She arrived fussing and I still stand by the idea that she was cursing the snow! lol

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, REBECCA! Congrats to the whole family!♥

Dana, prayers for your dad.

Lori, we miss you! Glad you peeked in.

Nothing on the agenda for me today. Yea! Going up into the 70's again so I am sure I will head out some time today to work in the yard.

Lolly said...

SANDI, so happy for you that you got a snow day! I do know the feeling you are experiencing, a glorious day at home! And, I like that snow on a weekend it "wasted snow". lol

Laurel enjoyed her day at home with Jacob yesterday. She said he could not have picked a better day to be sick. She had the house open while grading papers and then went outside and cleaned windows. Hope he is doing okay today. He woke up terribly congested yesterday. I suggested a hot shower for him this morning, hope it wasn't necessary.

Lolly said...

WANDA, so now they are making passes at you. lol We are hoping to get our cam up soon. We have just been so busy.

Mema Jo said...

I have returned from my dr appointment and Spot is dead and shrinking. All is well - go back to be check in April.
For all of your prayers and positive thoughts I am so blessed to have you for my friends ♥

Baby Rebecca Michelle arrived at 7am
6 lbs and 9 Oz. Just a nice armful

Won't get to see her until I get rid of this coughing cold. Going back to dr if tomorrow I am not any better...

No word yet from Christine..... BBILW

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

DAMN SPOT BE GONE!!!!!! Great news Jo. I was holding my breath. I love you so much and am so grateful for this news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WV sUSAn said...

***************************

Good Morning, aLL.

***************************

My cams are not up this A.M. ...
says it's temporary, so maybe later.

Take a look at Phoebe's chicks though. It's raining lightly all over the area here in So Cal, and the little ones are looking very interested in things around them, and they might be near fledging time.


C(°Ù¿°)D Jim

Lynne2 said...

Wonderful news from Jo!

stronghunter said...

Will has brought firewood nearer to the house and started a nice, warm fire.
