«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 307 of 307This past was totally sugary,
Tiramisu, home-made mini Whoopie Pies, and this morning, co-worker
brought in home-made Doughnuts....
Whee, more sugar in one week, than
in the last three months!
But it was fun ☺
Easter Week, after all....
Oh My Goodness, We split !
It caught me by surprise...
Shower-Bath time hereabouts...
ttfn...and Good Night in Advance to all headed for the pillows...
xo ♥
Yes you did and am usingit thank you MARGY!
Glad Michael is home safe and sound and that he had a dood trip. JO. Fist bumps sounds like a good thought...
Sandman is right on time
Everyone have a restful night's sleep
Tomorrow is Outside weather!!
I'll be thinking about the Farmer Market's Opening day!
Good Night to all ♥
Not looking forward to tomorrow. It is my "get ready for a colonoscopy day." When I went in to the doctor's office, the nurse asked why I had waited so long, and I said, "because I do not want to do this." Not really the answer I had planned, but the truth. She laughed and said that all of her other patients really like doing it.
Got a pic of the glowing poop, Margy. Will share it in a bit.
Wearing down now. Came home from baseball and did some tidying before Kathryn got home from work, then we both did a bit more cleaning.
This new job is keeping Kathryn busy which keeps me busy. She works ten hour days and every third Saturday from 8-2 or so. At least, that's what's scheduled.
She has actually been working more hours than that almost every day. She does hope this extra effort nets her a raise after the initial 90 days. It is tough, but being a single mom is not easy.
Janet, I laughed when I saw your post about Olivia being 11. Oh, do I know about the pre-teen years, and I do not think it was quite this way for my own children.
Hunter is actually growing a pretty good moustache. Really. I know that is unusual. And his voice has changed drastically in the past few months. He is still a skinny kid, though. It seems a little odd to see the facial hair and hear the low voice on this skinny 12-year-old.
He acts so confident until he is faced with a situation such as walking up to greet a group of people he doesn't really know, then he is a little kid again.
Enjoying those Hunter reports, Shirley....
I hope when the time comes that he meets up with some of the Momsters and Dadsters, he will feel comfortable
Hoping that Kathryn's extra efforts, above and beyond...will have good rewards, Shirley
Evening all...we are all slam wore out...took 1600 lbs to the dump tooday..from the roof..old water heater...toilet...kreosote boards....made the guys steak and scalloped taters...then we sat out by the fire.
Caught up on the blog...oh both osprey are here...one was eating in the tree next door at dusk
Have a good night..see ya tomorrow.
I think Hunter is pretty comfortable with the Momsters and Dadsters, Margy. You never know when this shyness will show up, though. It has not been that long since he would hide behind me when I tried to introduce him to friends.
Wow, Paula. I guess you are plumb wore out.
Going to say good night now. I will post those pictures tomorrow. Geesh, my stomach is already growling, and I have to start my liquid diet now.
Good Sunday morning my eagle friends! Last of my 10 days off! =(
Paula, sounds like a productive but exhausting day for you! You go, girl!
Shirley, wishing you a good day today as you get ready for tomorrow. Find something to keep you busy so you're not thinking about food all day!
Andy, good news about no surgery needed! Hope you continue to feel better!
Judie, congrats on finally getting through all those papers!!
Tennis at 8am for me - early this morning!
Windy at the nest and the kids are huddled together and alone. Hope breakfast arrives soon!
Prayers for all the needs on the blog, especially Lori's dad and Dana's dad.
Make it a great day!
Good Morning Eagle Buds
Good morning everyone. Well spring break is just about over and the weather is finally catching up! At least we will have good weather for our class Easter Egg hunts on Wednesday.
Thanks for the continued prayers for my dad. These are prayers of thanksgiving as he is doing so well. You would never know this man had a bunch of his insides removed and moved around. He amazes me every day!
Paula-loved the pictures of the men working on the roof. Now this may be a stupid question, but are they your sons?
Time to wake everyone up for mass.
Dinner here today. Guess we will barbecue chicken. Not sure what else we will be having. Annemarie and I are challenging each other today to stay on our healthy eating campaign. Met one of my neighbors yesterday who lost 50 pounds! Now that's two on my block who did it. This one also ran her first half marathon. I gotta find me some willpower. I only want to lose 15! How hard can it be dang it!
Gotta run. Prayers for all in need!
Good morning all. Dex had a rough late afternoon and evening last night but seems to feel some better this morning. He is holding his head up and looking at me and walked out for a nice drink of water. I hope for a better day all day. We will take it pretty easy. I am tired so will probably nap some today too. Hoping for some sunshine and a chance to maybe sit outside for a while. Have a good day all.
Good morning.
Babes basking in the early sunshine. Growing so quickly.
Glo, hope Dex is better today. Enjoy your nap time.
Jo, glad Michael is safely home.
Bright sunshiny morning here. Maybe some open windows later. Will need to plan out the remaining three weeks of school. Hard to grasp that I have only 7 more teaching days.
Kestrel box is MT. Snow at the bear dens and Ted and Lucky are no longer pals. Need to check on Isla.
Have a lovely day everyone.
Morning all
Outside with my coffee..osprey was in the tree..then he swooped down to pick up a stick for the nest...osprey season is in full swing here
Yes Dana those men are my sons :-)
Hope Dex is better today
Shoild be warmer here today. Roof should be done today
good morning all!
STRONGHUNTER: thinking of you tomorrow. i understand the prep for that is the worst part of the whole procedure....(hugs) and happy thoughts for you....I love your answer. Honest.
when i had the flu then bronchitis a few weeks ago, my dr asked me if i had had a fever or wheezing and i said look, when a child is sick, who checks these things. well typically the mom. well when mom is sick, do you think anyone checks these things? really? silly doctors!
and as for olivia, it has really started in the last couple of months.....and i keep telling myself, i made it thru the other two, i can do this...but wow.....maybe its my age, my own perimenopausal thing that makes the difference, i don't know. but wow.
my vet called me yesterday: she told me she can count on one had the # of dogs that have survived antifreeze poisoning.....and she said that if we had been a few minutes later, likely scout would not be here.
now having said that her white blood count is quite elevated. this could just be her body's natural reaction to having this foreign fluid in her body.....so back in two weeks for another run of labs.
we are still on the watch for any damage to the central nervous system (such as ticks, twitches, fainting, seizures) , as well as excessive thirst, vomiting, or excessive urination. hopefully with this next set of labs this nightmare will be done.
she is acting completely normal. so i am hopeful.
i was so excited to book my airline tickets to michigan yesterday! i've never booked any just for me before!!!!!! i am really looking forward to this trip.
granted i will be teaching on Saturday and sunday, but part of the reason, and i suppose the impetus for me actually going to michigan of all places is i've been online friends with two gals up there for about 6 years now. when another friend offhandedly said she'd love to have a continuing education class there it planted a seed and i said i'll do it. she's been helping me to get marketing, etc going.
so this is basically a working vacation for me. i will fly out on a Thursday afternoon and return on Monday evening.....soooo excited.
MAGPIE: i don't 'think at this point in my life i would be happy if i weren't full steam ahead.....i have a difficult time sitting still. if i am sitting, like yesterday while watching amie teach her class, i was online in the morning booking airline tickets, car rentals, etc and doing some work with regards to my business, then i played all afternoon online....i don't just sit. there was too much chatter for me to read, so i played on my computer.
hope you all have a great day. grocery shopping in a few, then the crew wants country fried steak for dinner, with gravey, mac n cheese and green beans.....and then we are going out for hot fudge cake instead of going to the bowling awards ceremony tonight. (i dislike award ceremonies as such, so i avoid them).
everyone have a lovely day. will check in later. light, love, hugs andsmiles to all!
Good morning,
I hear eagle cries.
Good morning my fine friends.
Janet wow your plans sound very exciting. I am also glad to read that Scout seems to continue to do very well. I think you caught it in time and you have a great vet. Shirley your family and friends are glad you have chosen to do something you need to do even if you don't want to. Well thats as far back as I can remember for now. Dex took his daily medicine for me. I am glad we could get that down. He is resting quietly by my side after a visit to the neighbors for only a few bites of chicken and a little walk. Doing ok so far.
Thanks for all the updates Janet.
Sounds like a great place to be PAULA.
Father Shep has arrived in the nest
with fresh fish..he just glided on in..
Good Sunday Morning Eagle Pals
xo
DANAMO-when you find that willpower, will you send some my way?! : )
And the wind is making that whistling noise again
sorry Shirley, did not mean to mention food !
Hope your preparations go well,
an I also think it is good that you get this done....
and now here is Mother Belle
Good morning to all my friends -
Jenny is here and we are going for lunch later with others. Should be fun because Vincent will be with us!
Belle just flew in to the nest. She flew up to 12 spot - has food but I can't tell what it is yet.
I was typing, I think Shep bailed and Mom took over at the feeding, Shep just ate while he was there, guess he deserved a few bites of that fish he brought in
Shep just came in also. Or was it Belle -
Sometimes you just can't see that spot on Shep's head..........
Whoever it was just flew out
I do believe Shamrock is getting the first bites this morning ☺
Have Fun Jo....well, I know you will!
Hoping that Dex bounces back to 100%
and same as for Scout !
seems like a beautiful morning
for the kick-off for Farmers' Market in Shepherdstown...
Shamrock must have sensed that breakfast was coming, she
had lightened the load just before the parents arrived
Good morning. Hope everybody will have a great day today. Gonna to do some work outside later when my son gets up. I see the whole family in nest this morning. Sandi - We will be in Seaford visiting family. Sory to not answer yesterday. We should get our licenses this week and head out fishing. Also, would like to take my wife down and show her the nest from the road before the tree gets too many leaves. We used to live in an old trailer before you get to the NCTC entrance...it's still there. Enjoy your days and take care all. I'll be checking in more this week as time allows .
things are sounding super for Paula at the Paradise, always
happy to read about this
DanaMO: Your report on your Dad is heartwarming....!!
And...keep your positive thoughts going for your weight loss program...maybe with the nicer weather it will be easier...
and You enjoy YOUR days WV Jerry,
sounds like you have some neat plans lined up !!
Seven count 'em 7! more teaching days for Judie.... that qualifies for the adjective: AWESOME !!
I have a freshly picked bouquet of daffodils from Jenny's flower garden - That is what SPRING smells like......
It was nice sized yellow fish that
Shep brought in....I say WAS as it is being devoured nicely now.
He landed at the 6, then hopped up to the 11 with it
Okay Jo!
There are so many awesome
daffodils out....all over the place!
And on with the day here for me,
James visit coming up in a few hours...
Best Wishes for a Super Sunday,
Every One...
ttfn xoxo ♥
Shep has been on duty for an hour or so now...
squawking and looking up and about...
hoping it's harmless, whatever it is in the area
signing off now...
Take Care, Every One
xo
Happy sunny, but windy Sunday!
Checked in on chicks and they are huge! One almost fell on it's head doing a PS!
Paula, sounds like busy activities at Paradise.What fun to see the ospreys! Had lots of osprey action at Park yesterday.The cam nest I saw TU now has TWO eggs.We were having a big river cleanup yesterday and some of the naturalists were at boat ramp clost to that O nest. Greg K said he saw an intruder male get in a fight with the nest male. They flew up, locked talons and both ended up in the water!!He said he's never seen that before.I've seen one bird in the water before that swam upstream! Greg's hoping that nest will survive. He switched cam to other nest which has lots of flugg! Have to dwnld camera and see what is visible.
Also saw MORE of nest eagle when leaving Park!!
Have a great day ☺ ♥
Beautiful day here.
Made a quick grocery run.

anyone gonna be in the area might want to attend at the Gardens
FROM FACEBOOK
IN HONOR, REMEMBRANCE AND CELEBRATION OF MOM NORFOLK
On Saturday, April 27*, 2013, at 1:30 p.m., we are inviting all to join us at Norfolk Botanical Garden to honor, remember and celebrate Mom Norfolk. We want this to be a celebration of all that she has done for all of us. Think what we have become because of her.
We want this to be a celebration of her!!!! Bring your tributes or mementos for her tree or her statue or both and we will just be happy we met her and were able to have her as part of our lives.
We also invite everyone to pack a picnic lunch and drinks and a blanket and we will find a spot and enjoy the Garden and each other. I’m thinking of bringing some music and maybe we can do an Eagle Dance or two. I think she’d like it! And of course, if Dad and the Missus hear music, they will be right there with us, too!
There are many events going on at the Garden that day. I spoke to them and they are happy to have us but the picnic area parking area will probably be full as will the picnic area. We can just find our own little oasis to have lunch! Let’s all meet at Mom’s tree at 1:30 p.m. and go from there!
We will be creating documents for those who can come and of course will have a Pocket Warriors document for those who will be with us in spirit! Eagle On!!!!!!!
(*We know the 27th is a day late, but we thought it might be easier for everyone to get together on a Saturday rather than a Friday.)
WOW the wind is whistling big time
one of the eaglets has it wing on Belle been there on and off since 538 the first pic I snipped
That may be Shep in nest I see spot now that he has turned the right way

both chicks are up and heading to see DAD they want him to share and he is He has his back facing them and he is feeding them backwards Good DAD multi talented LOL
both chicks are at dads butt and he got off balanced
odd he still hasn't turned around feeding them while they are under his tail feathers keeps knocking the one down or maybe ducking down

I think she told him to turn around LOL Now she is going to eat I guess both are passed out
wasnt that funny how we was feeding them backwards LYNNE did you see
Belle is now feeding POOF SHEP
Hi all. Wanted to stop by at at least say hi! I have been watching cam as much as I can but have been really in a busy work season and then our refrigerator dies, so had all that mess to clean up and new fridge shopping to do. Oh well!
Happy 3 week hatch day to Hedgie and Shamie! They are looking great. Love this big feet stage.
I go on vacation in a few weeks and hoping to go to Sherpherstown to see nest on way home at the end of April. The kids should be pretty active by then.
Hugs to you all. ♥
PS and, hope all is well here
I did Judy, my gosh they are so entertaining, aren't they!
Lydia, if you are going to stop in S'town, there are some people who would like to know! Please keep us posted.
Thank you for the reports. All is good and sometimes funny at the nest.
Oh where oh where has our warm weather gone...BRRRRR snow in the higher elevations and the wind is cold off the glaciers. Wearing coats and socks again...It is alright it is bound to warm up.
Glad to read JERRY will stop at the nest to show his wife and LYDIA too. Maybe the folks closer to the nest could arrange a lunch? A reunion? I wished I was closer.
LOL at your reports of Sheps feeding talents.
Good evening - Calm at the nest - bedtime for 2 growing eaglets.
It has been a Super Sunday with my 3 girls - lunch was great and Vincent was as good as gold. Shy at first but then his personality came out as he became the highlight of the day. He will be 1 in May. Same birth date as his Aunt Jenny.
Hey, just saw the ISS fly over the house!! Could see it really well through my binoculars! Thanks Judy for the heads-up about it! Denny said, "How did you know about this?" I said, "Judy in FL told me!"
Goodnight all - see ya bright and early tomorrow morning!!
Hi,
Getting really tired of drinking this stuff. I need to speed this process up.
I see Belle is tucked.
Glo - sure hope Dex is feeling well. The picture of him in his stroller on FB was great.
Dana reported that the ducklings are doing well - She expects most of them to hatch but will have a few duds.
We still have not had any rain even though it was called for today. The sunset this evening was beautiful. Hope that means another pretty day tomorrow.
Great you got to see it also SANDI and it was thanks to my weather man Paul he posted it on facebook and I just brought over
Forgot to say we got 1" rain the other day some areas south her got 4"
ok all you northers that use hats Here is a eagle hat Looks easy to make may try my hand at it
Eagle Hat
I need to spend less time at the puter I have a rough spot on my elbow LOL that is a sign of to much at the desk
I'll say warm.
Warm enough for the bugs to hit
the windshield...haven't had THAT problem for many months !
I was driving during ISS flyover but I saw one just like it
earlier in the week in the early morning...gotta love that ISS
Sounds like a Super Sunday, indeed, JO....Hurray for that !
Hello and Good Evening Eagle Pals
xoxo ♥
This time tomorrow, Shirley...
you will be able to say Good Riddance to all the preparations
and the procedure and think
about eating normally again!
Best Wishes on Good Outcomes.
Small consolation, but I do have
a mammogram on Monday, and then
a bone scan to see how my osteoporosis is doing.
Oh Lydia...
Bummer !!! Another one amongst us
with appliance problems !
Sorry about the refrigerator.....
I have poor luck with vehicle problems...but pretty good
fortune with appliances
Sounds like the Ocean at the nest....waves rolling in and out
Sounds like a real nice ceremony at Norfolk for Mom Eagle, JudyE,
thanks for passing that along
Oh
Wildflower news:
I finally saw Coltsfoot in Morgan County but could not find a good place to pull over and take photographs
and Magpie's Roost garden news:
My "James's New England Asters"
are putting up shoots, Already!!
Time for me to say Goodnight to all my friends. God Bless all of you & may
wellness prevail.

Jo, glad you had a good time. Not surprised Vincent is a good little guy.
Margy, glad you saw some flowers and hope you and James the Wise had fun.
Lydia, I know a secret place where old appliances go never to be found or seen again.
Sandperson is about to depart. The night light is on for anyone who may need to arise in the night.
Restful sleep for all.

No time to read back. Hope all are well! No falls! No drama at the nest! We have had so much fun! Heading home in the morning.
We have seen Jane and Herbert, but it had been seven years since we have seen our four nieces and their families! Way too long. We have had fun with our great nieces and great nephew. GREAT KIDA,

Good Monday morning my eagle friends. It's back to work day for me. =( 10 more weeks!
Shirley, hope your colonoscopy goes smoothly today.
Lolly, safe trip home!!
Paula, are you still at the beach? Hope you get a little relax time before heading home.
Temps are going into the 70s this week starting with today - too bad I'll be indoors all day.
Prayers for all - make it a great day!
Belle is awake and calling out. Must want a break. Both chicks are nestled together in front of her and quiet. BIG wing stretch from Belle now.
quick good morning to all. monday again.....
spent yesterday cleaning house...and worked a little outside. tom worked on the soon to be new privacy fence across the front of the house.
today its monday and back at it. we have beautiful weather finally, 70's by day. i think we might have found spring, but one more cold snap wouldn't surprise me.
i did buy my tomato plants this weekend, but won't put them out for another 3 weeks or so. i got the smaller patio tomatos for my raised garden. i couldn't find any last year....glad i have them now. i love fresh tomatos!
have a beautiful day all, will be thinking of you
i have a 3 p.m. appointment at olivia's school with the "S" team meeting....trying to figure out if she has a learning disability, or what is going on with her.....
light, love, hugs, and smiles to each of you.
good Morning EAGLE BUDS
Good morning my friends.
Good morning.
Belle is baby sitting and the kids are plotzed in the sunshine. Lovely.
Isla and her laddie were both on their nest. Windy, of course.
Janet, not to worry. Many techniques now for learning disabilities if that applies. I wasn't diagnosed until age 48, year before grad school, and I still did okay. Children today have many options.
Going to tackle some laundry and some reading for this week. Finish stalking tomorrow and then on to child molesters.
Hoping Shirley is doing okay this morning.
BBL
Good Morning everyone!
Been a very busy few days here in Maryland. I got here Saturday around 11...Taxes done yesterday!
Kate is at work today, so I have time to study, study, study!
It feels so great to sleep in my own bed and have all my own stuff where I left it! HOME! Feels so good to be here.
SHIRLEY, good luck with your procedure today. You'll be fine.
PAULA, glad you got so much done at Paradise!
One of the great things about being home, is I get unlimited viewing of the eaglets! YAY!
Good morning Its a NEW THREAD and feather time in IL. Head on over.
Stopping in on my lunch break to say hi and also that yes, I will let you know when I will be going to see the nest! Would be great to be able to see and meet some of you if you are around :)
Talk to you soon. I have to get back to work now, just wanted to respond.
