brought over- Sad to hear the news of Jack Lalanne's passing yesterday. Jack Lalanne My former mother and I used to exercise with him when I was little, but mostly I liked his white German Shepherd dogs!
I saw magpie's "EAGLE IN OUR NEST" and thought it was an hour earlier; I got confused by the time difference and thought maybe that was an hour ago! Silly me. Had there been a fly off and return already? I'm so confused.
Interesting...when the den cam freezes up, it freezes up for everyone. Learned that because it just froze up on me and when I got back I looked at the chat and it had frozen up on them as well.
Jo, not sure...Hope was clearly trying to dive into Lily at one point. No idea what happened when the cam was frozen...but now it LOOKS like Hope in front nursing, Lily on her side, head to right.
I used to have the view chat button but it is gone now. I just click join chat but do not join in, just view. It goes way too fast, but sometimes I want to know their opinions about something.
OK if the bear in front IS Hope, she isn't nursing, I just saw her lift her head and look to the left. It's hard to keep track of who is who when there is an interruption in the feed!
Good morning everyone :) I don't see anyone in our nest at the moment. They have shored up the sides quite a bit! The nest cup seems to be in progress, but where did all the leaves go that were there?
I would like to ask a quick favor: my mother lost her job last week, after 10 years at the same company. She has some infirmities which make working difficult, but at her age, she would reach early retirement before she would be approved for disability, so she's in limbo. She really needs another job, and soon. Would you mind, my dear friends, just sending a little positive thoughts her way?
Too soon to tell, they were saying it was going to be bad, gonna depend on how the storm tracks. I am watching it closely. We sure need moisture here, I prefer rain, it's much easier to deal with than snow.
Yesterday morning the rs hawk was back in one of our pecan trees. He was out on the thin ends of the branch, flapping his wings to keep his balance. Then he flew off. LOL Pecan trees easily get web worms. In the winter, when the leaves are off at the ends of branches you see masses of tangled webs. The hawk was gathering the web stuff for his nest.
The last two mornings I have seen a red bellied woodpecker at the seed feeder, usually they go to the suet. He chases off all the smaller birds, hunts for what he wants in the seeds and flies off in the same direction every time. Went to anther window to see if I could see where he is going, no luck. I can almost time when he returns and repeats this action.
Too much to catch up. Weekend was not a comfortable one. Much sleep needed along with pain pills.
Lily is taking good care of her babies. Hope was looking around staying behind Lily, one cub nursing, one cub squealing. Now quiet with motors running.
MT nest last I checked. Please, no snow at the nest!
So pleased Barb's surgery was successful. Very positive thoughts for your Mom, Delphia.
Need to get some school work done. Don't feel like it but ...
Looks like our friend "Mother Carolyn" is going to have to postpone surgery for now. Waiting on more tests results but not exactly sure why just yet. I know that she's been diagnosed with early CLL which is NOT a factor, but that she had a stress test today...MTBR
Good afternoon. Made it to my meeting this AM---it was 2° here when I left. Ridiculous. SO glad I have remote start on my truck. So many visits today.....saw one while I was getting dressed early---probably 7:15'ish, and a couple of times since I got home. Lunch is over, I've caught up on the blog. Judie, sorry your weekend wasn't good. Hope you feel better today. Delphia, prayers for your Mom. FYI: "early retirement" does not factor in for Social Security Disability.....they go by what your full retirement age is. But a lot depends on what her infirmaments are.....you can look on their website to see what qualifies for disability retirement, but you have to have been "unable to work" for 6 months before applying. It can take a while for approval, unless it's fast-tracked for a terminal illness or end-stage renal disease, but then it's retroactive to date of application. Prayers
Did a little straightening including a couple of drawers and a box out of my closet. Yep, woman on a mission. Going to repair a Christmas sweat shirt and then straighten the linen closet.
Judie, sorry it was not a good weekend for you. Prayers for you that this is a good week.
It was cold here this morning, in the 20's, but not like you in the east. Thank goodness. It is now up to 46 and we have a beautiful sun!
I think the two eagles at NCTC often look closer to the same size this year...really makes it hard to tell sometimes.... but you're right! that H-P answers the identification problem
Switched to the Lily cam right after Lynne put the alert up earlier, wow, what a good showing. When it froze I figured I had just timed out.
JO love your expression, hearing those little Volvos going !
Good Afternoon and still Morning in some places, Eagle Pals
Delphia positive thoughts on the way of course, and prayers... is your Mother nearby to you?
Lynn take consolation, my Massachusetts sister had -20 wind chills this morning... I have a remote starter: I go out and turn the engine in, lock the doors and finish getting dressed !
I would love to put bird feeders out, but don't want another squirrel bothering me... don't think I would get any woodpeckers here though. Sigh. I need a place in the country!
good news for your friend Barb's sister Lynne, continued prayers for Dana's friend Larry, and continued wellness/improvement prayers for you Judie ! I know God is listening, sometimes He just answsers things in HIS time and not ours...hard to get used to that sometimes...
wellll, it is overtime money... still leaves me time to do stuff tomorrow...but thanks for the sympathy, Lolly - so glad it is only the last four hours of the evening
Got peppers, onions, celery, and stew meat a going...
LOL, Margy.....luckily I have a dual oven.....top one is storage for chips and other snacks! Bottom is free for cooking!! Sorry you got snagged....but please don't ever tell us you are calling off----I'll be calling 911!! BTW----do you know that it's against the law in the city to leave a vehicle running unattended???? Even when locked! A friend of a friend was charged on Kentucky Ave. for doing what you do!!! But I always did it your way, too, until I got this truck---but I've never been within city limits.
Yes, Lynne, too bad that Mother Carolyn's surgery has been put off.
well, Lynn, I did know that, but I also thought possibly naively it was if the vehicle was unlocked...I will check it out, cannot afford any tickets ! I sure know they are HOT about fire lane violations, and illegal parking in handicapped spots...as well they Should Be !
So JO is going to make feetie prints in the air ☺ glad the dentist visit went OK, hope the painful bill never arrives !
Lolly, in our first house, we bought avocado green appliances!!! Then when we put in dishwasher, it had changeable panels---and I liked the yellow!!! Yep, 70's for sure!!!!
Hi, Gang, Boy, I'm tired! Have been cleaning up leaves, tree berries, and twigs out front. Got the parkway and the sidewalk all clean, but decided to stop. Won't have any room in the brown trash can for grass clippings, and the gardeners will be here tomorrow.
Emma is napping again. Maybe I should be, too! Have a big English exam tonight. Studied earlier today, but my brain decided to stop retaining information, so am giving it a rest. Lots of eagle activity today! YAY!!!!
Judie, sorry you had a lousy weekend ankle-wise. Hope this week turns out to be a good one! Prayers!
Gosh, it is BRUTALLY cold back east! Hope all of you manage to stay thawed out!~~hope that problem pipes, washing machines, etc., all decide to cooperate!
I am SOOOO tired, I think I'm going to go take a quick panda nap, before Hubby gets home from work. Will be back later tonight, after school. Have a good, cozy warm evening, everyone! :o]
also heard geese, and dogs funny thing about this computer...and the live feed....
the sound is about three to five seconds after the action...so they squeal and chortle when it's all over LOL ! and when I post - it's all invisible, then the words start appearing very slowly...like a ghost in there typing!
think I have to reload Adobe or something like that
Hello BEagle - good you can watch at the new job...I can watch at the "Old"job...
Haven't read earlier posts, but I guess some of you heard about water main break down here. In fact, Fubby found out from his Paw Paw buddy on phone this AM!! Hasn't affected our water pressure, but we're probably in the "boil water" area. Don't have to---have bottled. I finally figured out exactly where it is---back street of industrial complex between main post office & Hampton Mall a few blocks down. Parallel to Beltway. They closed the Census Bureau in Suitland & some area schools, etc for no water.
Oh that's way cool, BEagle... you and the NCTC cam, and your supervisor with the Lily cam! I think you are at the right place! Hope you get settled in quickly ☺
Just saw a news story on the Lib. of Cong. hawk. Had good pics of him flying/perching up in the dome of the main reading room.They DO have netting below to keep it in tthe one area and it DID take some bait to eat but avoided getting trapped!!One smart bird-must be reading at night! ☺
ESPN is moving into Ft Worth, getting ready for Super Bowl. Sundance Square is going to be ESPN headquarters. They started setting up today. I'll say again.....I am so tired of the Super Bowl.
A few weeks before leaving the old job, I got a lady there interested in the NCTC eagles. She got really excited about it.
She, in turn, got a young lady interested in Lib and Belle. This lady had a bone removed from one of her feet and has a difficult time getting around while healing.
She is very excited about the eagles too and says thank you, thank you.
Now Lolly if Dallas was in the Super Bowl....I bet you wouldn't say that. I bet you would even want to watch the Super Bowl. Would you say that is true?
BEagle glad you was able to give that lady something to do while she healed. So now she probably watches all the time...why??? Because it is addicting...we are eagleaddicts lol
Loweeeeda - you really think they leave a night light on at the LOC so he can read......? Too Funny! I truthfully pray they get him out without hurting him in anyway.
BEagle I was glad to hear about the new job's 1st day. Wow! what a supervisor! You two can keep each other up to date! You will settled in shortly I hope!
Heard some louder humming and some squealing on Bear cam. Maybe Hope is drinking and baby is hollering!
Had checked Sutton before dark, & cams were in better position. One looks down into refuge nest w/ eagle in it & other 2 show the lake nest, but bird's head was partly blocked by a board.
Weather people STILL are not sure what this storm is going to do just yet. But right now they are saying snow late Tues. night and Wed. morning, change to snow/rain/sleet during the day and then snow again PM Wed with possible accumulation of 3 to 6 inches. YUK.
BEagle, so great that you can keep the cam up. You will get settled in fine! And your co-worker has missed a lot by not being tuned into the Bear cam this year!
Loretta, glad you saw the report on the hawk. That water main break is really something----cars tossed and flipped, roads broekn up. What a mess the beltway traffic must have been!
Lolly, I have NO interest whatsoever in the Superbowel (intentional sp.!) this year. Can only imagine how the hoopla there will impact the citizens! UGH!
It would be more interesting if the Cowboys were in it, but I would still be very tired of all the superbowl hoopla. They are even charging $200 to stand outside! It is a rich man's entertainment and I think it is disgusting. You would not believe all the stores opening and selling stuff before they even knew who was going to play.
Right you are, Lolly. It is no longer a game for the fans. It is all for the business. I think advertisers just all need to bow out for one and then maybe the NFL and the network, etc. might get the message. It's insane.
Heading for tub. House is taping. Need to put wood on the fire, and too tired to make too many more trips down and up the steps. BBL.
It has been a "business for years" it just didn't start.
It is with ALL SPORTS baseball too.
I have always complained that a family can't take their kids to a baseball game or a football game without spending an arm and a leg.
Then again Ed and I went to the movies and Lord the cost!!!!!!! We then had learn't to go to a Metina (spelling wrong). Families don't have too many places that don't charge huge amounts. That has always been a petpeve of mine. Just not football and baseball.
In the past they have ALWAYS STARTED SELLING SUPERBOWL STUFF before it is even here. NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!! IT IS AS IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME!!!
Same way with stores Christmas is out way before hand. Valentines stuff is out in January. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE NOTHING HAS CHANGED...
Same way with stores Christmas is out way before hand. Valentines stuff is out in January. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE NOTHING HAS CHANGED...
GAS IS $3.199 REGULAR GAS A GALLON IN VIRGINIA I JUST PAID $2.999 which isn't much better. Why does gas have to be so high even in Virginia?????? Because as in everything the "people" don't have the say......it is the higher upper people in BUSINESS/POLICITICS...GAS DOES NOT HAVE TO COST THAT MUCH. FAMILIES NEED TO GO TO WORK...GET KIDS TO GAMES AND ACTIVITIES BUT WHO CARES IF A NORMAL FAMILY CAN'T HARDLY MAKE A GO OF IT.
SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD IS NOT FOR THE REGULAR INCOME FAMILY...MIDDLE CLASS IS NO LONGER ... EITHER POOR OR RICH.
Lowreeda, I may be mistaken but I believe the LOC hawk has been reading a first edition of Cooper's Landing.
Andy, good luck with the English test tonight. I know you'll have another A+.
Shirley, sleep well. Sometimes that's just what we need.
BEagle, so glad the first day was comfortable and especially happy to know your supervisor watches Lily. You two should get along just fine. Wishing a quick learning curve for you.
Humming motors at Lily's house. MT nest at the Sycamore Palace.
Thank you all, all fine. Just have to remember what my therapist told me: just because your brain wants to, it doesn't mean your body is ready -- don't rush. Therapy tomorrow after school.
Dana, I have a feeling that the price of gas and fuel oil will increase even more. The only thing that we peons can do is to dial down our thermostats and limit our car trips. We are dialing our heat way down and burning the fireplace. I just might buy an iron kettle and cook over the fire:)
Belle looks well settled in....maybe it will be an all-nighter.
Gee, sorry I mentioned the Superbowel. Gotta say, tho', that gas in WV is 3.19, in VA 2.99. VA is ALWAYS cheaper than here---at least in the Winchester area.

Sad to hear the news of Jack Lalanne's passing yesterday.
Jack Lalanne
My former mother and I used to exercise with him when I was little, but mostly I liked his white German Shepherd dogs!
Just a reminder
Lisa has made an update to the
BWE Eagle Cam Web Log
some very interesting information on there, and additional links as well
you can click on the link on the BWE cam, to the upper left...
Yes, Jack LaLanne...96 years old...
was a pioneer in Fitness Education
okay back to work here...
checkbook made out okay with the nestorations...I came out a little ahead but it won't last long !
Best wishes for a Good Monday, everyone
xo
two birds at BWO -
they almost resemble red-winged blackbirds
not sure what they really are
EAGLE IN OUR NEST
Eagle arrival
Good morning, Margy! I am here with you.
Really working on the nest. Was more fluff brought in? Saw fluff being moved around.
Lolly
not sure about flugg I mean fluff delivery...I didn't see the landing
earlier I think they just rearranged the stugg I mean stuff already in there
Okay Lolly and kickngbird
You have the baton
I have to disappear
Nothing quite like watching an eagle in the nest in WV and listening to bear cubs in a den in Minn while drinking coffee in TX. :)
Poof!
I saw magpie's "EAGLE IN OUR NEST" and thought it was an hour earlier; I got confused by the time difference and thought maybe that was an hour ago! Silly me. Had there been a fly off and return already? I'm so confused.
go to bear cam!
k - they were here between 0700 and 0730 Eastern time....
then again just now...
don't worry, I am confused all the time !!
Sounds great Lolly....I'll be right there !
ttfn xo
ah shoot she turned back around that fast.....dang! bear cubs visible for a second! NO WAIT, moving again...
It's pretty amazing, isn't it? I'll have to go too. But I'll be back to lurk later. :)
awwww....a Lily Hope kiss!
Those bears are just fantastic. Got a quick view of the cubs. Tried to get a pic but it is just so fast! Hope is sooo cute!
love to hear those little motors running!
Interesting...when the den cam freezes up, it freezes up for everyone. Learned that because it just froze up on me and when I got back I looked at the chat and it had frozen up on them as well.
Morning! Thanks for the new thread Steve.
Lynne, Thanks for the call to the Lily cam. I think I saw one cub. Question: do you thank that is the new cubs or Hope nursing?
Yeah, it sounds like everyone is happy now.
Good bitter cold morning to everyone.
Got to see the eagles come to the nest. If they came earlier then it was the 2nd visit I got to see.
Happy Steelers won not sure they can beat Green Bay. It will be a good game.
What day is the stink bug dinner and NCTC visit; day, time, where and do we really need stink bugs to get in lol????????
I think we hear the new cubs right now, but sometimes we hear Hope as well.
Oh I did only have our live feed up and did hear and eagle call....oh it was a glorious sound (:
Lynne & Lolly- do you have the option to Join chat or to View chat? I used to but I haven't for a while...
Those little volvo's motors really are going strong.
I can hear a quiet squeal......
yeah, I had a freeze up too.
Jo, not sure...Hope was clearly trying to dive into Lily at one point. No idea what happened when the cam was frozen...but now it LOOKS like Hope in front nursing, Lily on her side, head to right.
I used to have the view chat button but it is gone now. I just click join chat but do not join in, just view. It goes way too fast, but sometimes I want to know their opinions about something.
Jo, I don't have the option to just VIEW the chat anymore either. Just to join. Wonder why?
OK if the bear in front IS Hope, she isn't nursing, I just saw her lift her head and look to the left. It's hard to keep track of who is who when there is an interruption in the feed!
Good morning everyone :) I don't see anyone in our nest at the moment. They have shored up the sides quite a bit! The nest cup seems to be in progress, but where did all the leaves go that were there?
I would like to ask a quick favor: my mother lost her job last week, after 10 years at the same company. She has some infirmities which make working difficult, but at her age, she would reach early retirement before she would be approved for disability, so she's in limbo. She really needs another job, and soon. Would you mind, my dear friends, just sending a little positive thoughts her way?
YAY! Just got a call from my friend Barb's sister...surgery is over and the Dr said everything went very well! She is in recovery now!
Think the leaves got covered with another kind of fluff.
Prayers for your Mom, Delphia!
Of course Delphia! I hope she can find something soon. I've been without a full time job for almost 2 years now. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
Very, very good, Lynne!
Close up of eagle at NBG, think it is having a bad feather day!
EAGLE our nest!
And now two!
Delphia, hello again. Glad you came on and we certainly will send positive thoughts upward for your mom.
Dana - Wed, Feb 9 at 7 pm
No SB are needed - free admission....
Thanks Megan!
Aren't they beautiful!
Weather guys aren't quite certain of
the kind of precip Tues or Wed...
What say you Megan
Sort of! Seemed to be a balance issue.
oh wow, I HEARD the eagles!!!
I heard them too Megan beautiful sound (:
Too soon to tell, they were saying it was going to be bad, gonna depend on how the storm tracks. I am watching it closely. We sure need moisture here, I prefer rain, it's much easier to deal with than snow.
Such a pretty site right there at the sycamore tree :-) Its a beautiful morning in my world in oh so many ways indeed.
its time to turn on my live cam I hear :-)
Delphia prayers for your Mom to find something for work. Praying for whatever God's plan is for your Mom HE puts it into play.
There they go! One called out when they flew out.
Whoops! One right back!
With fluff and right to work on the cup.
That was quick cause now here comes one again......
And there's... Belle? And poof, as quick as she arrived, the other just left.
They are trying to drive us crazy this morning in and out, in and out, and which is which lol
Well someone is in the nest right now...can't tell whom...
NOw here comes more fluff! Both in nest
Belle in the nest now
I usually look at the white tail feathers showing....
I think that was Lib that just flew in with fluff.
Guess we will be able to tell which is which IF there is HP
LOl That is the only way I can tell, Jo.
Well there you go, HP!
well, now we know!
Good morning my peeps!
I keep having to restart my cam. ARGH! I did get to witness the eagle porn just now though! :-)
Morning Sharon
My Live feed & still cam are doing well
Lib better go get some foods for Belle if he wants her to stay in the egg well
LOL I think he heard me........
Sharon did Sissy take you and T-Bird for a ride in her new set of wheels this weekend?
There goes Belle, too. MT nest
Now over to the bears
They seem to be napping....
USeeWildlife.com
Yesterday morning the rs hawk was back in one of our pecan trees. He was out on the thin ends of the branch, flapping his wings to keep his balance. Then he flew off. LOL Pecan trees easily get web worms. In the winter, when the leaves are off at the ends of branches you see masses of tangled webs. The hawk was gathering the web stuff for his nest.
Mema Jo, I actually got to drive it for a while. We all went for a little ride and then me and Sissy drove to Smith Mountain Lake. Love her new car.
The last two mornings I have seen a red bellied woodpecker at the seed feeder, usually they go to the suet. He chases off all the smaller birds, hunts for what he wants in the seeds and flies off in the same direction every time. Went to anther window to see if I could see where he is going, no luck. I can almost time when he returns and repeats this action.
Wow! She let you drive! Very nice sister!
Had my breakfast, coffee is about gone, time to move. Not going outside as it is too cold. Guess indoor work is calling me.
Have a great day! I'll be back!
Wow Sharon! That is great I love the RED wheels......
Ok all this talk and Sissy a new car. Sharon got to drive it -- nice sister to let her. Red wheels so it must be on facebook..I will go there later.
Need to go take prescriptions to store. Get some things for Little Man...he is starting to cost me (: lol....me luvs him.
Glad Barbara made it through the surgery good.
Remember to keep Larry in prayers please. At Winchester Hospital Critical Care Unit on Life Support.
Thank you...
Prayers for those that need jobs.
Prayers for cold temps causing problems with water pipes for some and for others that it don't cause problems.
Sure hope Belle doesn't choose this next storm to lay her egg.
Send me an email as to when, where, and time for the dinner before the "stink bug show". Please and thank you.
later
Good afternoon.
Thank you, Steve. Stay warm. Thank you, Margy. Stay warm, also.
Too much to catch up. Weekend was not a comfortable one. Much sleep needed along with pain pills.
Lily is taking good care of her babies. Hope was looking around staying behind Lily, one cub nursing, one cub squealing. Now quiet with motors running.
MT nest last I checked. Please, no snow at the nest!
So pleased Barb's surgery was successful. Very positive thoughts for your Mom, Delphia.
Need to get some school work done. Don't feel like it but ...
BBL
aw, Judie, so sorry you had an uncomfortable weekend :(
Looks like our friend "Mother Carolyn" is going to have to postpone surgery for now. Waiting on more tests results but not exactly sure why just yet. I know that she's been diagnosed with early CLL which is NOT a factor, but that she had a stress test today...MTBR
Eagle just flew in!
Judie - there is an eagle in the nest for you now.
Still in the nest - wish they could find lots more fluff! Fluff is a good insulator.
I need to get ready to go to dentist for a small filling.
Keep your eyes on the birds and bears
Poof!off she goes. MT nest
Hi, I see a lovely eagle in the nest. Now gone.
Kids are busy working on an assignment. But not for long.
New Tral Cam on WILD AND WONDERFUL...no bears or such!
Headed to GG's.
Good afternoon.
Made it to my meeting this AM---it was 2° here when I left. Ridiculous. SO glad I have remote start on my truck.
So many visits today.....saw one while I was getting dressed early---probably 7:15'ish, and a couple of times since I got home.
Lunch is over, I've caught up on the blog.
Judie, sorry your weekend wasn't good. Hope you feel better today.
Delphia, prayers for your Mom. FYI: "early retirement" does not factor in for Social Security Disability.....they go by what your full retirement age is. But a lot depends on what her infirmaments are.....you can look on their website to see what qualifies for disability retirement, but you have to have been "unable to work" for 6 months before applying. It can take a while for approval, unless it's fast-tracked for a terminal illness or end-stage renal disease, but then it's retroactive to date of application.
Prayers
Hope all frozen pipes/vents, etc have thawed out!
Dana, you have mail.
Weather report is so iffy, who knows??
A bit warmer here this morning, Lynn. It was 9 degrees.
Did a little straightening including a couple of drawers and a box out of my closet. Yep, woman on a mission. Going to repair a Christmas sweat shirt and then straighten the linen closet.
Judie, sorry it was not a good weekend for you. Prayers for you that this is a good week.
It was cold here this morning, in the 20's, but not like you in the east. Thank goodness. It is now up to 46 and we have a beautiful sun!
impressive TV on BWO
was.. and I don't mean a television!
(at BWO)
I think the two eagles at NCTC often look closer to the same size this year...really makes it hard to tell sometimes....
but you're right! that H-P answers the identification problem
Switched to the Lily cam right after Lynne put the alert up earlier, wow, what a good showing. When it froze I figured I had just timed out.
JO
love your expression, hearing those little Volvos going !
Good Afternoon and still Morning in some places, Eagle Pals
Delphia
positive thoughts on the way of course, and prayers...
is your Mother nearby to you?
Lynn
take consolation, my Massachusetts sister had -20 wind chills this morning...
I have a remote starter: I go out and turn the engine in, lock the doors and finish getting dressed !
I would love to put bird feeders out, but don't want another squirrel bothering me...
don't think I would get any woodpeckers here though.
Sigh.
I need a place in the country!
good news for your friend Barb's sister Lynne, continued prayers for Dana's friend Larry,
and continued wellness/improvement prayers for you Judie !
I know God is listening, sometimes He just answsers things in HIS time and not ours...hard to get used to that sometimes...
got snagged for a four hour shift
"2nite" at 8 pm on my night off :(
I rarely get sick, usually tell my co-workers if I call in, it is likely to be terminal !
Going to go do some cooking !
ttfn
xoxoxo
Guess I'd better say
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
GooD MorninG,
EveryBodY.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
While it still is morning..out here at least.
C(°ٿ°)D Jim
Well, goodness, Margy! Hope you never call in. :)
What next? Linen closet cleaned, even put down new shelf paper. Won't tell you the color that was down. It probably dated back to the 70's. LOL
Nothing much going on cam wise. Back to being constructive!
Oh, sorry, Margy! Wish you had tonight off!
wellll, it is overtime money...
still leaves me time to do stuff tomorrow...but thanks for the sympathy, Lolly - so glad it is only the last four hours of the evening
Got peppers, onions, celery, and stew meat a going...
going to be meals for a few days
Hi Jim !
...and potatoes !
If I didn't have so many things IN the oven, I would probably BAKE more...this is a slow-cooker meal
LOL, Margy.....luckily I have a dual oven.....top one is storage for chips and other snacks! Bottom is free for cooking!!
Sorry you got snagged....but please don't ever tell us you are calling off----I'll be calling 911!!
BTW----do you know that it's against the law in the city to leave a vehicle running unattended???? Even when locked!
A friend of a friend was charged on Kentucky Ave. for doing what you do!!! But I always did it your way, too, until I got this truck---but I've never been within city limits.
Yes, Lynne, too bad that Mother Carolyn's surgery has been put off.
Lolly, so what color WAS the old shelf paper??
Back from the dentist - no pain - only took about 15 min max - The pain is going to be when the bill comes, I'm sure. I'll let you know!
Cams are all calm........
Hope BEagle's 1st day at new job goes well.
Feet are going up...........
well, Lynn, I did know that, but I also thought possibly naively it was if the vehicle was unlocked...I will check it out, cannot afford any tickets !
I sure know they are HOT about fire lane violations, and illegal parking in handicapped spots...as well they Should Be !
So JO is going to make feetie prints in the air ☺
glad the dentist visit went OK, hope the painful bill never arrives !
About to head home. It has been a reasonable day.
BBL.
Lynn, yellow and avacado green. Oh, my! Blue was under the sink. That is all changed now!
hope I can finish cleaning up in the kitchen before a possible Royal Pair visit....
Lolly, in our first house, we bought avocado green appliances!!! Then when we put in dishwasher, it had changeable panels---and I liked the yellow!!!
Yep, 70's for sure!!!!
the colors on the Eagle at BWE are spectacular !
Mom's house had avocado green, too. We moved that fridge to the beach house. That puppy ran for darn near 40 years between the 2 places....
Back to work...
switching on the live feed now
can't really blog during that
Shirley: hope you get to see an eagle visit and some more H-P to cap off a "reasonable" day ☺
funny look on eagle face at BWO
think that it is one of the refuge eagles, not Dad...
Eagle!
EAGLE!
EAGLE ALERT OUR NEST
2 eagles!
HP!
got a pic of the hp
Got a pic!
Up loaded the hp picture to momsters album.
Wow, just checked in at the right time!! Got a couple pics of 2 in the nest.
Beautiful sight!
Put pic in album. Dana got it, too.
HP
Second hp! Got another picture.
Missed the HP but got to see them both fly off.
I have permission to watch the still cam at the new position. : )
Oh, missed two HP's.
HELLO EAGLE FANS!!!
Both HP's in album by two people .. that is what we need people snapping those pics. ( :
Hi, Gang,
Boy, I'm tired! Have been cleaning up leaves, tree berries, and twigs out front. Got the parkway and the sidewalk all clean, but decided to stop. Won't have any room in the brown trash can for grass clippings, and the gardeners will be here tomorrow.
Emma is napping again. Maybe I should be, too! Have a big English exam tonight. Studied earlier today, but my brain decided to stop retaining information, so am giving it a rest. Lots of eagle activity today! YAY!!!!
Judie, sorry you had a lousy weekend ankle-wise. Hope this week turns out to be a good one! Prayers!
Gosh, it is BRUTALLY cold back east! Hope all of you manage to stay thawed out!~~hope that problem pipes, washing machines, etc., all decide to cooperate!
I am SOOOO tired, I think I'm going to go take a quick panda nap, before Hubby gets home from work. Will be back later tonight, after school. Have a good, cozy warm evening, everyone! :o]
Three of us, Dana!
BEagle, great that you can watch cams. So....how was your day? We were thinking of you.
Oh--forgot to mention--I was sorry to hear that Jack LaLanne had passed, too. Watched and exercised with his show for years. Prayers for his wife!
So glad you got an HP pic. Can't find mine!?Guess it didn't get saved? Contrast on nest was really good!
Saw it, heard it, twice...♥ ♥
also heard geese, and dogs
funny thing about this computer...and the live feed....
the sound is about three to five seconds after the action...so they squeal and chortle when it's all over LOL !
and when I post - it's all invisible, then the words start appearing very slowly...like a ghost in there typing!
think I have to reload Adobe or something like that
Hello BEagle - good you can watch at the new job...I can watch at the "Old"job...
How was the first day ????
For some reason everytime I took a pic my screen froze up for a minute. Frustrating!
My bear cam was down so I heard them afterwards. Also, I think I heard geese flying over.
BEagle I too want to know how did new job go?
It was a good day. Brutal only to the point that I am not settled in.
I asked my super if I could watch the eagles nest since it was through a .gov web.
No problem. THEN she said, I watch a bear named Lily!
I got two pics using the snipping tool but they load onto the E-MN album rather small, so I won't add them
gotta figure that problem out !
LOL Little Man is getting snail mail now LOL Thank YOu ( : Hugs
So I asked, Did you see the twin cubs Lily had?
She had not since she hadn't watched it since last year.
I heard the geese over the bear cam yesterday.
Haven't read earlier posts, but I guess some of you heard about water main break down here. In fact, Fubby found out from his Paw Paw buddy on phone this AM!!
Hasn't affected our water pressure, but we're probably in the "boil water" area. Don't have to---have bottled. I finally figured out exactly where it is---back street of industrial complex between main post office & Hampton Mall a few blocks down. Parallel to Beltway. They closed the Census Bureau in Suitland & some area schools, etc for no water.
Oh that's way cool, BEagle...
you and the NCTC cam, and your supervisor with the Lily cam!
I think you are at the right place!
Hope you get settled in quickly ☺
Glad to hear your day went well, BEagle. LOL Funny that she watched Lily last year but had not watched it yet this year.
What do you do? (Your job!}
gonna zone out for 45 mins before the half a night shift
Yes, Loretta, that was SOME water main break...a 54" pipe...Whew !
what a mess !
ttfn xoxo
Best wishes as school, Andrea
Just saw a news story on the Lib. of Cong. hawk. Had good pics of him flying/perching up in the dome of the main reading room.They DO have netting below to keep it in tthe one area and it DID take some bait to eat but avoided getting trapped!!One smart bird-must be reading at night! ☺
I do accounting and auditing work.
ESPN is moving into Ft Worth, getting ready for Super Bowl. Sundance Square is going to be ESPN headquarters. They started setting up today. I'll say again.....I am so tired of the Super Bowl.
A few weeks before leaving the old job, I got a lady there interested in the NCTC eagles. She got really excited about it.
She, in turn, got a young lady interested in Lib and Belle. This lady had a bone removed from one of her feet and has a difficult time getting around while healing.
She is very excited about the eagles too and says thank you, thank you.
Thanks BEagle! We wish you the best with this new job.
Ohhhh, the weather just reported that we have "artic air" headed this way next week. Rain or snow???? That is the question.
Now Lolly if Dallas was in the Super Bowl....I bet you wouldn't say that. I bet you would even want to watch the Super Bowl. Would you say that is true?
BEagle glad you was able to give that lady something to do while she healed. So now she probably watches all the time...why??? Because it is addicting...we are eagleaddicts lol
Oh Lolly I hope it is just "AIR"
Loweeeeda - you really think they leave a night light on at the LOC so he can read......? Too Funny!
I truthfully pray they get him out without hurting him in anyway.
BEagle I was glad to hear about the new job's 1st day. Wow! what a supervisor! You two can keep each other up to date! You will settled in shortly I hope!
Heard some louder humming and some squealing on Bear cam. Maybe Hope is drinking and baby is hollering!
Had checked Sutton before dark, & cams were in better position. One looks down into refuge nest w/ eagle in it & other 2 show the lake nest, but bird's head was partly blocked by a board.
Jo, I bet there's a security light in there!!LOL
BEagle, so glad to hear about your new workplace & that they're cam watchers!
Thanks Loretta
for that update on the hawk at Library of Congress...wish I could see it !
Just realized that Steve's New Thread comment from this morning stated:
"Coldest Morning this Winter"
That's a Big 10-4 !
time to head out for mini-shift.
Good Evening to All, and To All a Good Night.
God Bless Us, Every One
xoxo ♥
I just put a pic on my blog you may find amusing. Or NOT!!!
Weather people STILL are not sure what this storm is going to do just yet. But right now they are saying snow late Tues. night and Wed. morning, change to snow/rain/sleet during the day and then snow again PM Wed with possible accumulation of 3 to 6 inches. YUK.
BEagle, so great that you can keep the cam up. You will get settled in fine! And your co-worker has missed a lot by not being tuned into the Bear cam this year!
Loretta, glad you saw the report on the hawk. That water main break is really something----cars tossed and flipped, roads broekn up. What a mess the beltway traffic must have been!
Lolly, I have NO interest whatsoever in the Superbowel (intentional sp.!) this year. Can only imagine how the hoopla there will impact the citizens! UGH!
Oh no. I pretty picture of a SB. Put that thing in an airtight container!!
:D
A pretty picture of...
Yes, there are a lot of eagleholics around!!
Ahem!
It would be more interesting if the Cowboys were in it, but I would still be very tired of all the superbowl hoopla. They are even charging $200 to stand outside! It is a rich man's entertainment and I think it is disgusting. You would not believe all the stores opening and selling stuff before they even knew who was going to play.
Stopping by to say hello and good night. I am so tired tonight and have to work tomorrow night.
See you later.
God bless.
Goodnight, poor Shirley.
Right you are, Lolly. It is no longer a game for the fans. It is all for the business. I think advertisers just all need to bow out for one and then maybe the NFL and the network, etc. might get the message. It's insane.
Heading for tub. House is taping. Need to put wood on the fire, and too tired to make too many more trips down and up the steps. BBL.
It has been a "business for years" it just didn't start.
It is with ALL SPORTS baseball too.
I have always complained that a family can't take their kids to a baseball game or a football game without spending an arm and a leg.
Then again Ed and I went to the movies and Lord the cost!!!!!!! We then had learn't to go to a Metina (spelling wrong). Families don't have too many places that don't charge huge amounts. That has always been a petpeve of mine. Just not football and baseball.
In the past they have ALWAYS STARTED SELLING SUPERBOWL STUFF before it is even here. NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!! IT IS AS IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME!!!
Same way with stores Christmas is out way before hand. Valentines stuff is out in January. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE NOTHING HAS CHANGED...
Same way with stores Christmas is out way before hand. Valentines stuff is out in January. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE NOTHING HAS CHANGED...
GAS IS $3.199 REGULAR GAS A GALLON IN VIRGINIA I JUST PAID $2.999 which isn't much better. Why does gas have to be so high even in Virginia?????? Because as in everything the "people" don't have the say......it is the higher upper people in BUSINESS/POLICITICS...GAS DOES NOT HAVE TO COST THAT MUCH. FAMILIES NEED TO GO TO WORK...GET KIDS TO GAMES AND ACTIVITIES BUT WHO CARES IF A NORMAL FAMILY CAN'T HARDLY MAKE A GO OF IT.
SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD IS NOT FOR THE REGULAR INCOME FAMILY...MIDDLE CLASS IS NO LONGER ... EITHER POOR OR RICH.
bye
tell us how you REALLY feel Dana! LOL!
I know your frustration. Everyone feels it.
Lowreeda, I may be mistaken but I believe the LOC hawk has been reading a first edition of Cooper's Landing.
Andy, good luck with the English test tonight. I know you'll have another A+.
Shirley, sleep well. Sometimes that's just what we need.
BEagle, so glad the first day was comfortable and especially happy to know your supervisor watches Lily. You two should get along just fine. Wishing a quick learning curve for you.
Humming motors at Lily's house. MT nest at the Sycamore Palace.
Thank you all, all fine. Just have to remember what my therapist told me: just because your brain wants to, it doesn't mean your body is ready -- don't rush. Therapy tomorrow after school.
EAGLE JUST FLEW INTO THE NEST!
EAGLE IN THE NEAST!
laying in the egg cup!
Yep, wiggled right down into the nest cup.
just checked about 10 mins ago I think and no one was there...
Yeah, I've had the cam up, just saw eagle fly in.
Put pic in EM album!
Can't wait to see how long she stays!
wonder if an egg will be laid tonight??? Lots of HP in the last couple of days...
Please don't lay an egg, Belle, it's too early!
Eagle in nest!!
It's been there about 20 minutes now. And tonight certainly could be an egg laying night:)
Dana, I have a feeling that the price of gas and fuel oil will increase even more. The only thing that we peons can do is to dial down our thermostats and limit our car trips.
We are dialing our heat way down and burning the fireplace. I just might buy an iron kettle and cook over the fire:)
I'm with you Wanda....hope they wait til AFTER the mess to come Wed.
Lynne, Jan. 31 was the earliest that our pair have laid and egg, let's hope they don't try to break that record!
Belle looks well settled in....maybe it will be an all-nighter.
Gee, sorry I mentioned the Superbowel.
Gotta say, tho', that gas in WV is 3.19, in VA 2.99. VA is ALWAYS cheaper than here---at least in the Winchester area.
Well, I guess nothing is certain...especially after the goings on at BWE. How many nights in the past has she spent in the nest prior to an egg?
See the nest is occupied. I do hope that if an egg arrives the snow will not.
Going to watch a bit longer then need to turn my light off. Will leave the night light on for others coming in later.
I think WV has higher taxes on gas, which makes it more expensive.
I forgot to tell you that I am watching
"You Lie To Me"
S P L I T
OH MY GOSH BELLE IN THE NEST
WE NEED A EGG LAYING WATCH..
