Evening all.
I should have taken notes so I don't forget Simeon's important comment.
Prayers for Carole Ann's mom. Hope the injury will be minor
Okra, boy does that bring back memories. The first meal I ate at my future mother in law's home had boiled okra as a side dish. She was just trying to bring a little southern cooking to a smart mouthed 17 yr old Yankee who was planning to marry her son. It took me years to even try fried okra, which I do like, but can't, like Kay, get the knack of cooking so rely on restaurant fare.

Judie said...

Evenin' all.

Nest is quiet.

Yep, I think okra is mostly a southern thing. Never been able to successfully fry okra, either.

Think I'm going to turn in early. Maybe watch some program through my eyelids.

Sandperson is complaining. Something about time to go on Spring break. Told we don't do Spring break anymore. He'll be departing about 11pm.

Restful sleep for all. Prayers for all in need. Night light is on.

JudyEddy said...

Right behind you JUDIE
gonna try to get to bed earlier being the silly time change


grannyblt said...

I don't know who Simeon is. That auto correct is at it again.

Shirley, I also ate at a Cracker Barrel last night on our way home from Niagara Falls.

My birding friend and I wanted to check out Dunkirk harbor that is always open in winter. I've never seen so many gulls together at one time, we estimated 3,000 or more. And hundreds of ducks, mostly Scaup. Since it was a warm(above freezing) day we continued up to Niagara Falls, Ontario. We drove on the Niagara parkway which is parallel to the Niagara River. ( the river runs from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario with the Falls several miles up near Lake Ontario). On the parkway the road is next to the river with no development in between and lovely homes on the other side. Anyway, we saw hundreds of ducks and some tundra swans all along the river near the shore until we got near the falls where there was a lot of ice. The Falls had partially thawed from earlier in the week, so the water was still flowing under the ice. It was an amazing sight. It was a long day for a couple of old ladies, but certainly worth it.

JudyEddy said...

The Catalina Island update is hot off the press. I'm very EGGcited to read that K-17, who turns 30-years old in a month or so, is incubating two eggs! She's the female on Twin Rocks nest Here's the link to the Update: Catalina Island update

Hoda said...

Super Glue she says!
P A R D O N M E???
That is worst than stitches!!!!
You be careful JUDIE!
Don't get wet SUPER GLUE LADY now you have become!!!
Oh my!!! What will they come up with next!!!

Exciting PAULA that the Osprey will soon return.
Spring is on its way for sure.

Had a super yoga class and practiced with three people from Portland, Oregon. Nice people in their twenties here for a week of skiing.

GRANNYBLT you were in Canada. What fun, how awesome. Did you have to show your passport? Did you carry it with you?

Once more I know profound GRATITUDE. Blessed Be.

Hoda said...

Prayers for all who were aboard the disappeared Malaysian Airliner. If they find a large field of debris it was a bomb that brought it down. If they find a small field of debris then the pilot took it down deliberately, either suicide or a terrorist act!
God Rest Their Souls!

stronghunter said...

Hi,

back from dinner. We went to Applebee's. Food was so-so. We talked with the manager and got a 15% discount. I think it was a bad night in the kitchen.

Saw from earlier posts that we had an intruder in the nest awhile ago. Oh, I do hope this is a one-time even.

Now it would be nice to have that other cam so we could see action around the nest.

stronghunter said...

The plane disappearance sounds terrible, Hoda. Have been watching the news.

stronghunter said...

Super glue--sometimes they use staples, Hoda.

grannyblt said...

Hoda, we had our passports as the border at Buffalo is only an hour or so from DunkirkNY and thought we might go on up the river if the weather was good We have to pay a $3 fee to get into Canada, but nothing to come to USA. We were only in Canada for about 4 hours this time.

Mema Jo said...

Lynne your trip sounded very enjoyable
Your pic over on FB is awesome

Relieved the nest is peaceful - No one watching the nest over on FB must have been there around that time. One comment on the Outdoor was "dinner or trouble" so I think she must have been watching at the time of the fly out.

Mema Jo said...

Well my clocks say 11:20pm - I am wide awake!

Hubby and I ate at Cracker Barrel this evening after Mass. Were they ever crowded - wow - every table was filled - but really only a 15 min wait. They have a remarkable serving crew here at the Frederick one.

Mema Jo said...

Belle was off the eggs and now is back on them.

Mema Jo said...

Signing off for the evening

Prayers for all of us and our loved ones.

Goodnight to all ♥

Lolly said...

Hi all! We have had a fantastic day
We did wine tasting, came home, rested and then went to our very favorite winery! Enjoyed it and the couple next to us from San Diego. Came home cooked a great dinner!

Laurel and family went to Austin today. Joey teaches in Ponder, a small district near Denton. Ponder went to state basketball playoffs and won! State champs! Joseph is going to school in Ponder next year. Mainly to get away from not the best kids!

stronghunter said...

SED, everyone. See you tomorrow!

Lolly said...

I just have to say that due to time zone change and spring forward...... I am terribly confused!

What ever, I am going to say good night!

Hoda said...

Good night SHIRLEY.
Sorry you did not get to bowl today.
SED

Hoda said...

Goodnight all.
I will head out early to ski so I can come back to my yoga workshop.
Blessed Be all of our lives.

God Bless Us All

Yay BRIAN is homeward bound.
Blessed Blessed Blessed Be!

Kay said...

Oh, dear, here I am, unable to sleep and you've all been zapped by JUDIE's courier, The Sandman !

I sure did miss a lot of action. Hope that intruder gets the message. Those eggs look mighty good to a lot of birds. One has to be pretty bold to go up against two large eagles !

That Eagles4Kids nest is presenting an amazing saga. Have to stay tuned on that one.

JUDYE, I did see Google.com while the women were still featured. Neat and thank you ! I've bookmarked that page. Apparently there are umpteen ways to enter Google and that page is not what I open to.

Hurray for K17 ! I love those Catalina Island nests.

HODA, what a lovely compliment ! And thank you for giving us more of your history with your wonderfully generous and loving American family ! Paying It Forward is exactly the thing for you to do and I'm sure they feel that way, too ! I think you should write a book---have you considered doing so ?

Isn't it a kick the way we tear into a topic ? One little word, okra, and off we go. What fun ! A very simple side dish is: saute an onion, add a nice big can of diced tomatoes and a package of frozen unbreaded okra. Season to taste. Very good !

I changed all the clocks before Seth and I headed for bed and I see that in about 40 minutes this computer time will Spring Forward.

Guess I'd better try for some more zzzz's. SED ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

JudyEddy said...

GOOD MORNING EAGLE BUDS

JudyEddy said...

EAGLE CHIRPING

JudyEddy said...

off the EGGS and eagle chirping

JudyEddy said...

no eagle in view must be switch yep here we are

JudyEddy said...

pulling flugg around the front

38° is temp at the nest

Linda said...

I love fried OKRA!!

Like, Lynne1, my first experience with okra was at my future mother-in-law's house for dinner in Mississippi!! Definitley a southern dish, but oh so good!!

The trick with fried okra is to use corn meal with flour!

And my son, who would never touch the stuff is growing
it in his vegetable garden boxes in FL!! He likes to grill it!

Linda said...

Oh, and Good Morning!

Don't have time to stay and visit but wanted to
check in and wish you all a great day today.

Still battling migraines and taxes...

Not a good combination, but 'tis my season...

LOLLY - I'll have to tell you about my nephew's store called Simply Home Brew.... some day...
He's been making wine in his basement since he was a kid with his Dad and has ventured into a full fledged business, even now a regional supplier for other businesses.

SANDI - I'm loving that pill dispenser idea, too. Hope something works out for your Mom. Sounds like your doing her lots of good this weekend. Even getting out for a while, which is fantastic for her!! Keeping you and she in prayer.

Speaking of prayer....I am going to try to make it to church today....

xoxo

Sandi said...

Goodorming Judy, Linda and all my eagle friends. All looks quiet at the nest but it sounds windy there.

Yesterday didn't go at all as planned. I planned for Lisa to balk at the pill dispenser idea but she was OK with it. Mom was not. I showed it to her online and explained how it worked and how she could go back to being entirely independent with taking her meds, but all she saw was the price. Said no way was she spending $150 for a pill dispenser and she didn't want Lisa or me to spend that much either. Said she is perfectly fine with Lisa bringing her morning and night time meds each morning and leaving them at the condo for her to take at the appropriate times when her ipad alarm goes off (REALLY??). I told her I didn't want to hear her complaining then, that Lisa is treating her like a child.

I also planned to take Mom to the grocery store yesterday. It took her 2 hours to take a shower, get herself dressed, and fix her hair - no big deal, since we weren't on a schedule. At 2:30, she said she was hungry since she had eaten nothing. I fixed her a sandwich - she ate 1/4 of it and then felt nauseous and she said she was going to bed. At 4:15, I finally went to the store without her b/c I had to pick up something to fix for dinner.

Oh yeah, and the door lock on Mom's front door broke and had to be replaced (minor expense) and the toilet in one bathroom has started leaking (Denny couldn't fix that, had to call a plumber friend who will come on Tuesday to fix it).

Linda, I'm so sorry that your migraines are getting the best of you. Does the stress of tax season increases their frequency?

Kay, thanks for the generous offer to buy the pill dispenser - you're the best!

Hoda, 2 more sleeps for me! :) Brian tells me all the time that the tribes are currently intent on killing one another, not Americans. Sadly, bullets don't always hit their intended target! He also reminds me of the beefed-up Marine presence at the Embassy, but Marines are pretty powerless against a truck bomb. His words do little to allay my worries. Gone from there is good!

Lolly, don't drink too much!! :)

Have a great day all!

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

I logged on a few minutes ago to see three lovely eggs in the nest. Then they got rolled. Looks to be a beauteous day.

Sorry about the problems with your mom and the pill box, Sandi. It sounds like she really likes to have Lisa come over.

Back when I was caring for my mom, (one of the times I had her at my house) I left Kathryn in charge of the household and went out to the mall. I was so much enjoying a day of freedom, but when I called Kathryn to check on things, she said that when she offered to bring grandma her lunch, grandma said that she would just wait for me to come home.

We were able to convince her that Kathryn could fix her lunch just fine. The truth was that she could have fixed her own lunch, but she liked having us take care of her.

Mema Jo said...

Good morning to all ♥

Sandi I guess you should have just brought the dispenser in and not let Mom have made a choice. Hope that Lisa handles things well - has to be hard for her being so close and for you being so far away.

Very anxious for Brian's return and I bet Lynnis is very excited. How far along is the pregnancy?

Mema Jo said...

Hope Shep and Belle can find some fresh dry flugg for the nest. My yard looks like a mud hole. lol

Hopefully no more of this intruder drama... I just want our bobble heads to hatch and mature and fledge.
I am thinking that the week of March 23rd thru the end of the month will be our hatch time. BWE took 40 days mainly I think due to the cold weather. Their one egg hasn't hatched and they have concern for the smallest eaglet getting enough food.

stronghunter said...

Yay!! Will's car is fixed. We were thinking he would need to borrow mine to go to work today, but Kathryn's nephew Zachary came over and took care of things much more quickly than I expected, so I have the car if I decide to go bowling. I think this time I might call ahead to see what the lane situation is like.

It's plenty muddy here, too, Jo. I am hoping the two trees we planted last fall have gotten through the cold winter okay. We know they have had plenty of moisture.

My spring flowers are still trying to grow. Still just peeping above ground level.

stronghunter said...

It does sound like you might need to just buy the dispenser and present it to her as a deed already done, Sandi. At least, keep that in mind as an option.

stronghunter said...

We definitely have sound at the nest cam. I hear the wind blowing.

magpie said...

Good Sunday Morning, Eagle Pals


Sunshiney it is hereabouts

I've been reading, but not typing much, and I really CARE about the new concerns, the longstanding ones,
and am joyous about all the Happy, Fun, Successful, Encouraging and Inspiring reports and posts
(( HUGS ))

xoxo

magpie said...

oh, the okra stories...well, some might remember the famous
Beef Tongue expedition, when
Captain Gene carefully guided me
through its cooking and serving :)

got a lot of "Yucko" comments during that time, but we had a whole lot of fun with it

:)

magpie said...

concentrating on healing the hand here, and tending to daily things,
which include daily prayers and readings, and essential at-home
exercise routines here...but my Heart Hears and Speaks to all of you, and YOUR Doins'

Prayers for Wellness, and all good possible outcomes for our woes and challenges

Best Wishes for a Marvy Day !

God Bless Us,

Mema Jo said...

Hope you all have a very good day this Sunday. I did lose my hr but hubby didn't lol

Got all my critters and feathered friends to watch out on the deck. I think they were all late getting here and doubt they know about the time change. They probably wondered why their food was out there waiting for them.

Hoda said...

Not too many more days where I will be able to post " off to skiing this morning", so off I go.
Will go to Yoga workshop in the afternoon and will check in in the evening.

SANDI from out I read in the Arab Media BRIAN got it right in regards the tribes.
The positive aspect is most of the shooting is away from where foreign nationals are.
I agree with you. October can not get here fast enough!
The sooner he is out of there the better.
BLESSED BE BRIAN. TWO MORE SLEEPS!

Hoda said...

What not out!!!

Judie said...

Good just after noon!

Sandi, maybe a little fib wouldn't hurt - get the dispenser and say you found it on EBay for $15 - great bargain. I am so sorry for all your frustration and Lisa also. I think we're all very anxious to have Brian home again.

Linda, hope the headache goes away.

Kay, sandperson sends an apology. Says he got caught in a traffic jam on I-70. Seems a truckload of okra overturned and driving was very slippery and slimy.

Jo, I always think DST is an excellent justification for an afternoon nap.

Nest is quiet except for some wind. Berry Babe, as someone mentioned, is really wanting to escape that egg cup.

Shirley, glad the car is fixed. Yes, call ahead. Can you reserve a lane?

Margy, take it easy, please.

Okay, off to the newspaper. Lovely sunshine and blue sky today. BBL

Hoda said...

Hi JUDIE
Bye JUDIE

Mema Jo said...

Don't mind the extar daylight we get with the time change - my biggest concern is the time to eat... like it is already 12:42 and I am not the least bit hungry for lunch !

I ate the most delicious Cracker Barrel Apple Butter last night
Waitress brought some to the table with the biscuits - WOW - so good that I had to buy a jar. Now hubby is bringing me the cottage cheese to go with it. That will be my light lunch!

Mema Jo said...

The sound of the wind at the nest
sounds just like a echo-cardiogram or a sonogram - It really does! I guess that is why I usually don't turn the sound on.

paula eagleholic said...

My Mom was southern born and bred...we ate lots of okra...in gumbo ...jumbalaya...and fried...never boiled :-) And my Dad..being the farmer ..grew it for us. There was not much that my Dad wouldn't eat. :-)

paula eagleholic said...

Getting Larry out to Lowest and Wall world this afternoon..pretty here but windy...

JudyEddy said...

HELLOOOO


ON LUNCH

PUNCHED AT 223 THIS DUMMY FORGOT TO SET HER WATCH LOL I did all the clocks and the truck clock but forgot watch LOL I really only looked at it a couple of times a day like lunch time

JudyEddy said...

JO I love their apple butter
i have a jar in the refrig

JudyEddy said...

ok People are staring at me in Mcd I just laughed out loud reading the bad accident with the okra JUDIE LOL

Lolly said...

Good late morning! Internet problems today. Grrrr!

I like the idea of a little fib to get the pill dispencer.

We did laundry this morn and about to adventure out.

Another entertainment has been watching some ground squirrels in the vineyard behind us.

Love fried okra, but we have eliminated fried foods from the diet. Used to have fry fests, lol. Fish, okra, French fries, and hush puppies! Yummy!

Time to depart! Later!

JudyEddy said...

MARGY and local nest peeps BERKELEY coI am sure you all have heard of it just thought I would bring over

This was on facebook
Berkeley deputies investigate possible murder of a 72 year old woman "a 72-year-old woman not breathing, with a bag over her head and her hands bound."

JudyEddy said...

time for me to shut it down and head to the timeclock SYL

Mema Jo said...

Watched A hallmark this afternoon
Walked a bit out on the deck - it is windy out there

Now it is almost dinner time and I am not yet hungry......... Late dinners begin.....


stronghunter said...

Back from bowling practice. It is so very nice outdoors today.

Judie said...

Gee, maybe I can get a job as a detective. Another high-tech questionable death. Evidence points to accidental asphyxiation. lol Thanks for my giggle for the day.

Been puttering around. Got everything prepped for dinner. Chicken strips w/cucumber salad. Maybe some home fries.

Enjoy the afternoon with Larry, Paula.

With you Jo. My hunger clock and the time clock are not in agreement.

Off to check some nests then put my feet up.

Kay said...

Good Evening Eagle Buds !!!

Back from "The Importance of Being Ernest", Oscar Wilde's last work and so very good. Otterbein University's theater/arts dept. is outstanding !

JUDIE, what a mess--an okra spill on I70--no problem had it been in the summer time when it would just fry--but in the winter ? Wow ! Wish the Sandman would rely on his GPS and Sori for alternate routes in such cases !

SANDI, sounds like there are some mind games twixt your sis and mom at times. Good on you for calling their bluff when necessary. The offer stands if you decide at some later date to buy the pill box.

LOLLY, like you, no frying---can't recall the last time I fried anything. However, about twice a year I indulge in something like fried okra at Cracker Barrel or deep fried dill pickles at Buffalo Wild Wings or The Rusty Bucket which is a local eatery I do love.

LYNNE, you're the only Lynne now that the other one, dear heart that she is, has decided to be LYNNEDUH. I love hearing about your birding trips !

LINDA, so sorry you're plagued with migraines. Sure wish a cure could be found. Good hint on the okra coating of flour with the cornmeal. I'm sure some of our okra fans will try that !



Mema Jo said...

Eggs are uncovered
Just tuned in
Hope all is ok

JudyEddy said...

EAGLE CALLING OUT

Mema Jo said...

Going to check out some TV programs - there are some new ones this evening


The sun is just now setting
Beautiful sky ♥

BBL

Sandi said...

We be home - is it Lolly who likes to say that?

I have unpacked, fed the dogs, thrown a load of laundry in and eaten a bowl of Special K for dinner.

After reading Judie's suggestion this morning, I had decided to buy the pill dispenser and tell Mom I found it on Ebay for cheap. But then Mom asked me 4 times before we left where her night meds were. Each time, I held up her pill container and said, "They're right in here Mom, in the compartment labeled Sunday." And each time, she replied, "But where's my cup labeled 10pm? Lisa always puts them in my cup labeled 10pm." Finally, after the 4th time, I asked her if she wanted me to take them out of the pill container and put them into her cup labeled 10pm. She said yes, so I did. Good grief!

On the drive home, I told Denny what happened. He said that last night, when I was taking a bath and Mom's ipad alarm went off at 9:45pm, she got up, turned it off and then asked, "Where are my pills? They're not in the cup labeled 10pm." Denny was sitting on the sofa and said, "Mom, they're in the pill container in the compartment labeled Saturday." Last night, there were still pills in 2 compartments - Saturday and Sunday - and she couldn't figure out which ones she was supposed to take. Denny had to show her the correct compartment to open.

So on the drive home, I called Lisa and asked her to leave Mom's night meds in the pill container each day this week when she brings her morning meds over at 10am, rather than leaving them in the cup labeled 10pm. Then, when she calls Mom at 10pm to make sure she took them, she'll know if Mom was able to "find" them in the pill container, or if she says, "I couldn't find them b/c they weren't in the cup labeled 10pm."

If Mom gets so confused that she can no longer remember to open the lid of a pill compartment and dump her pills into her hand, then she really doesn't need an automatic pill dispenser; she needs someone to give her her pills in the AM and PM. If Mom does OK this coming week, then I'll order the automatic dispenser and have it shipped to Lisa's house. I found it on amazon.com and we get free 2-day shipping from them.

OK, I am going to watch some DVRd TV shows - our DVR is just about full and there are 2 new series starting tonight and tomorrow - Resurrection and Believe - that I want to start recording. Need to free up some space.

Goodnight my friends - I have really appreciated your advice and just your willingness to listen to my ongoing saga with Mom and Lisa. I love you all so much! See you in the early AM.

Hoda said...

Blessed Be SANDI

Odd with the time change and food.
I did alright today.
Now to see how the week pans out...
Season changes bring about a need for new food for me.

Yoga was good. Will continue well into May with the Sunday Yoga.

Am sleepy. It is only five in the afternoon and blessed Be the Light. I hope I can stay up till 8:00 PM

Some in my American Family got the cards announcing the birth of the twins. Some hurt feelings that they were not told earlier. Not going well. I am sad!

Cup of tea time.

magpie said...

Sandi:
Bless You and Lisa, and Denny, for all you are doing...
I have added your family to
my St Jude Prayers now,
a few others are on my Saint Anthony prayers

Good Evening Eagle Pals..

Yes, I read about the murder, might
actually get a return call back from one of the detectives, a personal and professional friend, just about....his promotion to Chief Deputy...
a [possible] murder NOT on Pendleton Drive for a change

magpie said...

I laugh out loud a lot too when
reading Judie's posts....there is just no one here to make fun of me when it happens !
:)

magpie said...

I am intrigued by these places that Paula was taking Larry to:

"Lowest and Wall World"

har de har har har....I think
that would be
Lowe's
and
Wally World !

Oh Linda...these persistent migraine headaches....
please, find a doctor that can help!
I am so sorry to read of these things

(( COMFORT AND BE-GONE HEADACHES HUGS ))

magpie said...

Holey Moley, Hoda....

Joy...for the parents and newborns.......I hope that over-rides any hurt feelings...

Enjoy your hearty healthy posts,
always....


magpie said...

So I have probably once again met my typing limit....

So, Best Wishes for a Good Evening, to all in ALL our Eagle Corners

Prayers for Wellness, and Joy,

magpie said...

Oh, Snap, Jo!
any reports from your Hedgesville grands and great grands on any
Eagle Sightings out their way ??

I thought I MIGHT have seen an Eagle perched on Rt 9 West near where the turnoff to their place is....
but I couldn't scope things out at the time...

"Just Wondering"

magpie said...

and to Kay:
Wow, sounds like great fun
at the Theatre!

"Theatron" - Greek, for
"The Seeing Place"

Prairie Home Companion, what I could catch on to today, was
wonderful !!


okay, 'bye now

Judie said...

I rather suspect Paula and Larry went to Simeon's secret pantry called The Lowest Wall In The World where one can purchase bushels of okra.

Dinner over. Kitchen restored to order. Eagle was resting quietly. Off to surf tv channels.

Sandi, you are an amazing person. Keep the faith.

Judie said...

Glad you enjoyed the play, Kay. One of my favorites.

Judie said...

Margy, no snappy of fingers! Not until the healing is done.

stronghunter said...

Goodness, I almost got cat-bit.

Was helping Kathryn give Lucky his sub-Q injection this evening. I had him on my lap and all of a sudden he'd had enough and tried to take a big bite out of my leg. He got a mouthful of jeans and nothing else, thank goodness. As far as I know, Lucky has never bitten anyone before, and Kathryn says he doesn't have many teeth anyway, but he had enough to get hold of the jeans. We will have lots of padding under him from now on.

George also needs sub-Q treatments now, so we did him too. He got downright nasty, although there was no biting or scratching, just cat cursing. We're wondering about getting some kind of cat muzzle.

stronghunter said...

Looked it up, and there are cat muzzles on the market.

JudyEddy said...

EAGLE CALL OUT

JudyEddy said...

eggs alone

JudyEddy said...

now back

Hoda said...

I can not bring up the nest.
It tells me page not found
I refreshed same
I did a new search same

Anyone else?

stronghunter said...

I have the nest, Hoda.

Missed the action Judy described, though.

stronghunter said...

I see an eagle peacefully sitting on the eggs. Head not tucked.

stronghunter said...

Bushels of okra--that might take awhile to eat.

Hoda said...

Thank you SHIRLEY.

stronghunter said...

Any luck, Hoda?

Hoda said...

No SHIRLEY.
It continues to tell me page not found.
Maybe you all should not turn off your feed...???

stronghunter said...

Yeah, Hoda. I don't know what your problem might be. Maybe try to reboot the computer.

Egg roll.

Hoda said...

OK now I have it!
Two eggs were in view and then an egg roll. Belle is on.

stronghunter said...

By the way, George is in a very good mood now. Purring and rubbing on the computer.

stronghunter said...

Good! Glad you got it back up, Hoda.

Hoda said...

That is what I did SHIRLEY. Thank you.
Not fun about cat bite!
Cat Q is cleaning ears perhaps?

Lynne2 said...

evening all!

what a gorgeous weekend it has been!

((((HUGS)))) Sandi.

Lynne2 said...

Oh Shirley, best to get a muzzle. #1 rule in the vet business is NEVER GET BITTEN BY A CAT.

Sub-Q, Hoda, refers to subcutaneous fluids being given to Lucky.

JudyEddy said...

HODA IT took me about 10 min to get it on my lap top this evening

JudyEddy said...

oops should have finished reading lol

stronghunter said...

Yeah, Lynne, I think a cat bite would have had me at the doctor's office. Do not want to mess with that.

Had a student once who came to school and told me she'd had a cat bite. It was ugly looking and had red streaks coming from it. It was a very small school with no nurse, so I called her mom and told her of my concern. Mom thought she'd be just fine until she got home. I tried, but I was young and this mom thought she knew better than I did.

A few days later, when this child came back to school, she still had her arm in a sling. Thank goodness, she recovered, and thank goodness, the mom did get her to a doctor.

stronghunter said...

Belle is tucked.

Okay, so Hoda has the live cam again, Shirley has avoided cat injuries, George is happy, JudyE and Belle are both tucked for the night.

Kay, Sandperson is going to try again tonight. Says he hopes all that d__m okra's been cleaned up.

Night light is on. Sandperson is packing a satchel. Restful sleep for all.

Lolly said...

Well drat! Just posted and it disappeared.

We had a great day. Went to wineries, enjoyed the countryside, grilled and ate outside. Saw a humming bird!

Need prayers for Laurel. She is having back spasms and has had an allergic reaction to a med. she is dizzy, skin very sensitive and throwing up. It is their spring break, no plans but not the way to have spring break.

Lolly said...

Tomorrow we are going to the coast. Going to see the elephant seals and go to Ragged Point to dine ! Yea!

Hoda said...

Prayers for LAUREL.
On it LOLLY.
Went and lit her and SANDI'S BRIAN a candle.
Blessed be to both

Heard eagle calls. Wasn't watching, so I didn't see what might have happened. Belle(?) is turned so that her tail is visible now. Last time I looked, I saw her head.

stronghunter said...

Hope Laurel is better soon, Lolly.

So glad that Brian will be home soon, Sandi.

stronghunter said...

More eagle calls.

stronghunter said...

But she is staying in place.

stronghunter said...

Can't tell if it is Belle calling.

stronghunter said...

I see a spooky, upside-down face in the nest.

stronghunter said...

Just lost the live cam.

Lolly said...

I am thinking of showering and getting comfy . Also need to do my nails!

Lolly said...

About time to hit. The pillow!

Night all! SED!

Hoda said...

World Health Organization recommends that we limit our daily intake of sugar to 25 grams, 6 teaspoons a day!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Cliff Bars. Healthy and nutritious I thought. Not any more. They have 22 grams of sugar!!!

I just finished reading their report.
Now I will quietly say:
Goodnight.
God Bless Us All.

Safe Travels BRIAN
Healing prayers LAUREL.

Good Early Morning Eagle Buds !!!

JUDIE, Mr. Sandman came thru with no slippin' n' slidin' ! He zapped me somewhere between 9 and 10 when I was toggling back and forth between Cosmos and The Good Wife and not doing justice to either of them. Roused up and went from recliner to bed at 1:30 a.m.--HODA was still posting at that time--too bad I didn't get on line, but I was too groggy.

HODA, you foresaw the possibility of trouble in the withholding of info re:the precious twin boys. Too bad, but love will overcome !

May I be the 1st of the day to wish our very own and wholly wonderful NATURENUT--LOWREEDA-LORETTA a SUPER DUPER HAPPY BIRTHDAY ? We love you gal !♥

Also see that SUNNY is celebrating a birthday today, too. I don't know you SUNNY, but love your name and wish you the best !♥

Kay said...

SHIRLEY, so glad the cat didn't nail you ! Cat bites are the pits---my nephew was bitten by a stray cat when he was 4 years old---wound up with something called Nocardia and nearly died. Mark required special handling for a good two years after the bite--breathing problems mainly.

SANDI, you know we have your back, at least as far as prayers and positive thoughts go. I'm thinking your Mom is perhaps beyond the help the "special pill box" is meant for after your description of the interaction between the two of you--her and Denny--her and Lisa. Well, you're certainly not lacking for advice here, but we aren't walking in your shoes. God be with you all ! On the bright side---Brian will soon be home ! Yeah !

6 teaspoons of sugar a day--that seems massive. So much is hidden in stuff we don't even think about. I became an avid label reader when diagnosed with Diabetes II a few years ago. Couldn't believe the amt. of sugar many every day products contained !

LOLLY, putting Laurel back on the prayer list. Hope the docs can give her something to build her back up again. Hope and and JACK can relax in the knowledge that Joey and the boys will take good care of her.

MARGY, yes, PHC was really a good one Sat/Sun ! Happy to have Garrison et al back with new live shows--always so up to the minute on current events. Great music !!!

LOL PAULA and Larry's "Lowest and Wall World" venture ! Perhaps next trip will be to TarZhay n' CauseCo.
Happy Larry is up to doing such things !!!

Kay said...

Wishing all a good Monday ! BBL

Sandi said...

Goodorming Kay and all my eagle friends - it's Monday - UGGHH!

Hoda, sorry to hear about the family problems due to the late announcement about the twins. I'm sure the parents knew their decision would upset people, yet they chose to say nothing until now. I hope the family will come around and at least you don't have to worry about saying the wrong thing anymore.

Lolly, hoping Laurel feels better quickly and can enjoy her spring break. Wow, this is really early for spring break, isn't it? When does school end for her and Joey and the boys? My spring break isn't til 4/20.

Belle is tucked and all is quiet at the nest. have a great day.

Good Morning Eagle buds

36° at the nest I see


stronghunter said...

Good morning,

Slept in a bit this morning. Just did not feel like moving earlier, although I did manage to make sure Hunter was out the door. It'll take awhile to adjust to the time change.

Happy birthday, Loretta!!

Lost the live cam last night, but see it's back now.

Eagle on the eggs.

stronghunter said...

Yikes, Kay! That was quite a cat bite. I never heard of that disease.

Almost 6 teaspoons of sugar in one candy bar Hoda? Wow.

stronghunter said...

Oh, I missed Cosmos last night, Kay. I really meant to watch it.

Happy birthday, Sunny.
