Lolly said...

Hey....it's me! Took Judy's advice. lol Trying a new avatar and see if that will help with getting rain.

You will not know it's me!!!! I will not know it's me!!! What to do? What to do?

Lynne2 said...

RAIN RAIN RAIN FOE LOLLY!

Lynne2 said...

FOR

Lolly said...

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Have another one I am going to try out.

Lolly said...

How about this one?

Lolly said...

Well, it is supposed to be animated. Well, boo hiss!!!!

Lolly said...

Think I will go with it even though it is broke. lol

paula eagleholic said...

Like the umbrella, Lolly!

Back in paradise.

Went to Cohen's football game. They have combined the 2 teams in his area, so he didn't get to play as much, but he still enjoyed it. They won today, so now they are 2-2.

I see the Skins took another beating....

Got the Eburg house all vacuumed, sheets washed, beds made, stuff picked up and put away. It got the Lolly treatment, best as I could do it this afternoon, LOL.

Beautiful here, cool breeze, have the windows open. Moon throwing out lots of light tonight.

Nick wanted to go for a midnight stroll along the water,,,,but I know him better than that! He would be in the water in a heartbeat. We will walk the beach tomorrow night when I get home from work.

Week #3 coming up...hard to believe how time is flying!

paula eagleholic said...

Lolly, sure hope you get rain soon! My grass is all dry and brown, but I mowed it anyway. It did still have some green spots. Now it is brown and trim!

Sorry to hear about Izzy.

Judy, glad you like your new table!

I ate Panera mac and cheese on the road!

stronghunter said...

Raindrops for Lolly's flowers.

paula eagleholic said...

Meant Week #3 at the new job!

Lynne2 said...

ROFLMBO Shirley....that looks like a poor Daisy being killed by killer rain!!!

Lynne2 said...

Dry here too. We had a heck of a storm on Thursday evening but it was not too much help. The pond where we walk the dogs is over a foot down! Grass brown in many places.

Mema Jo said...

Wow in three days we have just not gotten 200 plus 14 or so. So happy most of us ere outside in this beautiful weather!

Lolly, Izzabelle and Bosco - when they leave and go to a happier place
it will be hard on the boys and Laurel and Joey. It will bond them all even closer.

Mema Jo said...

I watched some TV - Foyle's War - new series as he is now in the Secret Service.


Going to wait for the sandman - should be starting out about now.
I'll get a quick run down of the news and by then he should be here.

Goodnight friends - Sound sleep and pleasant dreams. I love us ♥

Mema Jo said...

**** Paula - Michael and Laura's
date in November is the same as ours and we have lasted 50 plus years. Tell them that they picked well. ♥

Mema Jo said...

Pray - Rain for Lolly ♥

stronghunter said...

Okay, Lynne. Is this one better?

stronghunter said...

Time for sleep here, too, so I will say good night. See you all tomorrow. SED.

paula eagleholic said...

Oh neat, Jo, I will tell them!

SED love and hugs for all ♥

Lolly said...

Thanks for the supportive avatars!!!

Have done my daily ritual of falling asleep in my chair. Was going to watch the news and missed the whole thing! Guess I best get to bed.

Night all! SED!!

Hoda said...

Good night
God Bless Us All.

Tomorrow I will go for a day trip to the East Shore of Kootenay Lake.
Maybe a hike if it is not raining too much.

Lori O. said...

Good Monday morning eagle friends!

Don't know that I'm ready to start another week yet. That weekend went so quick.

Big test today on the musculoskeletal system - another one where if the spelling of the right answer is wrong, then it's all wrong. Minus 1 point. Glad I'm a good speller!

PAULA, seems funny for you to say back in Paradise on a Sunday night. Used to it being the opposite. :)

LOLLY, sorry about Isabelley and Bosco. Watching our pet family grow old is not easy. Can't believe Dalai is already 8. She was just a puppy when I met her!

JUDYE, are you done moving now?

It's raining here, not bad...wish it was at Lolly's house instead.

Love you ALL! or I LOVE US!

Hope everyone has a great day. Big hugs all around!



Sandi said...

Good morning Lori and all my eagle friends! It's Monday - UGH!!!

Lori, good luck on today's test!

Lolly, hoping that Jack hears from the docs today and that you get some rain. Sad to hear about Izzabelly and Bosco - I feel Laurel's pain.

I can just barely see the nest tree but the branches look MT.

Have a great day everyone.

JudyEddy said...

GOOD MORNING
LORI the kids have everything moved in to their new house Angie said they only have a few boxes left
Wishing you lots of luck on today test I am sure you will do great
Jordyn is loving her fenced in back yard and her 6 car drive way that she can ride her bike

JudyEddy said...

LOLLY keeping fingers crossed that the new avatar will help

the ATTIC is MT and foggy looking

Judie said...

Good morning.

Lolly, hoping to hear the best news for Jack and that the raindrops begin falling on your head - and everywhere around your yard.

Lori, break a leg on the test today. You'll be fine.

Have fun Hoda.

Happy third week Monday, Paula.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Monday.

stronghunter said...

Good morning,

Big commotion in DC right now. A shooter is barricaded at the Navy Yard. Several people have been shot there and near there.

Rus used to work there and frequented the CVS where a person has been shot.

stronghunter said...

Rus is now working elsewhere.

stronghunter said...

Ground stop at Reagan Airport.

Areas of the city on lockdown.

stronghunter said...

11th Street Bridge is closed.

Lolly said...

Good morning! Sun is brightly shining but they say we have a chance of rain, Out to water pots!

Yes, do hope we hear from the doctor today!!

stronghunter said...

Hope you do hear from the doctor and that the news is good, Lolly.

stronghunter said...

They are saying 4 fatalities at present. Ten shot.

magpie said...

Good Morning and now Sad Morning, Eagle Pals....

I just attended a class Sunday
on Active Shooter/Assailant
incidents...

the instructor was / is due to fly out of Dulles this afternoon....am sure she will be aware of this
situation....

stronghunter said...

Questioning a person of interest now.

Your instructor might not be able to get out of town on time, Margy. Ironic.

Hope you never have to handle such a situation, but it is good that they do train 9-11 personnel for such possibilities.

magpie said...

Yes, Shirley...Emergency Responders learn from the perpetrators, and then the perpetrators learn
from Emergency Responders

our class was very riveting
and helpful

magpie said...

Thank you, Shirley, for bringing the difficult news of the incident to us here, I was not
watching or listening to any news programs

Very relieved your son us is not in
that area anymore

stronghunter said...

So am I Margy. He called me this morning. I am sure he knows people there.

magpie said...

Lolly...hope the information from the doctor comes long soon for Jack, and you...(( Hugs ))

magpie said...


They told us that even though
the shooting is no longer being heard, it does not mean
that...it is over

I am so sorry for these victims...
and for everyone involved in this
atrocious event

stronghunter said...

They are now saying 12 shot and that there are two shooters. Interesting.

magpie said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
stronghunter said...

That makes sense, Margy. It isn't over until the shooter or shooters are shot or under control.

CNN says "Two shooters are down." If there were two shooters, that changes things quite a bit.

Lots of action going on.

magpie said...

They have a lot of buildings to clear, Shirley...I guess three bldgs at least...

this is one type of incident
that requires extensive pre-planning
and practice drills....

I will be away from the
television for awhile,
but will be listening on
radio...
God Bless the Victims,
and Protect, and Comfort the Survivors, the Families, Emergency Providers

stronghunter said...

Small birds in our attic.

stronghunter said...

Amen to your earlier comments, Margy. God bless the victims.

Mema Jo said...

Hello there - wet afternoon today
except for Lolly :(

DC situation very upsetting
Trying to wait for the final details

Lolly - prayers for you and Jack waiting on medical report

Lori - Ace that test!

Mema Jo said...

Prayers for Christie's Shannon - Kidney stone and not passable - too large. Will be a lithotripsy on Wednesday. Yesterday he wasn't in any pain at that time. I am praying for the procedure to be successful.

Lolly said...

This is funny. Jack was talking to good friend on the phone. Remarked that we had seen (on fb) that they are expecting another grandchild. Russ started talking about his daughter. Jack was talking about his son and his wife. LOL So we have learned about his daughter, Too funny! The policeman in the phonto with the boys in Austin is his son. This will be their 3rd child. Sharon, his daughter, will be having her first. So much fun!

Lori O. said...

Thanks for all the reports on the DC shooting - I'm going to have to turn on the TV to find out more - never see TV anymore. It sounds like a horrific day there. Was wondering why my ex-husband (first one, David) emailed me with the subject shooting and asking how I was. Guess he doesn't know the latest. He finally remarried not long after I married Perry. Still, each of us was single for 12 years in between. Certainly didn't rush in to anything.

So much for an ace job on the test. I got an 86. My average now is a solid "B." Considering how difficult the program is, and how many have already dropped out, I guess I should be happy with that. They told us on the first day, if you got straight A's in high school, it's not going to happen here. Guess they're right. Maybe it wouldn't bother me so much if I wasn't putting everything I have into it. Thanks to all of you for your support. It does mean a lot to me. Sorry for complaining.

I'm off to do something meaningful and look up the details of today's shooting. Prayers for the families of the victims and those injured.

LOLLY, I hope you get good news for Jack, today.

SHIRLEY, Hope everyone Russ knows is okay.

Big Hugs for everyone!

Judie said...

Good late afternoon.

Sad day here in D.C. Hard to concentrate on anything other than the shootings. Hope the students don't ask about it tomorrow.

Shirley, so glad Russ is no longer at the shipyard and sincerely hope no one he knows was directly impacted.

Lori, hand in there. Being too hard on yourself. This is just the difficult part because it is a way to cull those who will not make it and a strong foundation for what will come later.

Lolly, still hoping for Jack's good news.

For Christy, wishing the best for Shannon -- out out damn stone!

Kay, thank you for the osprey video. Amazing. Just amazing.

BBL

Mema Jo said...

Hey there, Lori
Good work again and on a Monday at that. I am very proud of you!

Lori - as of now there are 13 confirmed deaths.


PRAYERS FOR Bev
Sharon posted on FB that Bev was experiencing chest pains and is at the er - They have done blood work and now taking her for a chest X-ray. Prayers welcome

Lori O. said...

JO, thanks for relaying the info on BEV. Prayers for her wellness and immediate recovery. God Bless the family. Sharon, we love you!

JudyEddy said...

Hello Home from work

LORI congrats on the test
We need to start giving you $ for good grades LOL remember those days for your report cards LOL

Thanks JO from bringing over the info on BEV

I guess they still haven't found a second shooter ???

ATTIC is MT but a pretty blue sky with floating clouds going by

JudyEddy said...

and yes again afternoon thunderstorm rolled in about 430 we got a half of inch rain at my house don't need it

Lolly said...

Dinner is in the oven. We are heading to Denton for football. Hope tonight's game is better than last time, Anything could be better...yep, that bad!!

Lori, you are being too hard on yourself. You can be very proud of that solid B. I agree with Judie, they are going to weed out those who are not putting their whole heart into it,

Have not had the TV on all day, Just getting reports here and on the CNN home page.

Chance of rain today has been zilch!! Bright sunshine! Grrrr!
No call from the doctor, Grrrrr! And, Jack will not call. So, I am not going to pressure him.

Concerned about Bev. Those two sisters spend way too much time in the ER.

Lori O. said...

Just found out from Kate that her brother, who works at the Navy Yard, was there this morning when the shooting happened. He was still being questioned by the FBI last she heard. SCARY!

Lori O. said...

JUDYE, I do fondly remember those days of $20 for an "A"... I think it was $10 for a "B." We never got the money - it went into the bank. Helped me buy my first car!

LOLLY, sorry no doc call yet. No news is good news. Big Hug for you.

JudyEddy said...

LORI so happy that Kate bro is ok
we live in a scary world now days

LOLLY I was going to say the same thing about Bev and Shar in the er to often hope they both find out what is wrong with them Suck being sick and getting ill

JudyEddy said...

WOW LORI you got big bucks I think mine may have been a buck or two But I am older than you also LOL

JudyEddy said...

Did I tell you that Angie is having Jordyn do little things to earn $ for the things she wants ex she wanted walkie talkies but they are more that a couple of bucks so she picks up all the trash cans in the bedroom, bath and living and takes to the front door every night for daddy to take out She bought the walkie talkies the other day when I had her She told me when she sees me Fri she will give me the money I might as well get the things she wants and get my 10% discount on it saves some $

JudyEddy said...

Poor Angie and Carl both played hookie from work today Wore out from the move It was them and her dad and brother and one friend doing it Everyone else had to work because remember the closing was delayed and they all had promised and made plans but the move never happened that day

stronghunter said...

Hi,
At football practice. Trying to get through the split.

JudyEddy said...

I heard a song on the way home and it made me think of LYNNE2, LOLLY and HODA wanting to be Queen I only recorded a few seconds of it and you will under stand what I mean the name of the group is Lorde and the songs is Royals
A song for LYNNE and any queen challenger LOL for everyone on blog LOL I just thought of her when I heard this song today so I google it and found it and only recorded the few lyrics LOL

JudyEddy said...

I did forget to put the 2 behind LYNNE2 name but you know who I mean When she is queen LOL

Mema Jo said...

From Bev : Well, not feeling the best for sure, lots of chest pain, blood pressure elevated. Don't know what's going on but they are keeping me to figure it out. Prayers, good vibes, positive energy appreciated.

Prayers for Bev to get some good news about what's going on with her.

I am starting with a head cold so will be taking some Nyquil and hitting the bed early.

Goodnight all!

JudyEddy said...

JudyEddy said...

so happy you got to see the SANDI so sorry about you getting a cold lots of rest

JudyEddy said...

I had one poofed and it didn't get published so its about two min late on the time oops

Lynne2 said...

aw, I like that avatar Shirley! Looks like Lolly is giving up on the rain.

HA HA HA Judy!!

BTW, I think it's great that Jordyn does chores for $. We did, as kids, have chores for our allowance. Can't find a single parent lately who does that. It's all give give give. Sad.

Lori, your B average SUCKS. You are a TERRIBLE student and you need to buckle down and study, young lady!!! hey, if you are gonna be so hard on yourself.....me too! LOL!

JudyEddy said...

changed my avatar with the two in the pretty sunset sky

JudyEddy said...

the last Under the dome is tonight
hey SIS did you ever read the book???
I was told it is so much better that the movie As I think the books always are anyway

JudyEddy said...

did you listen to the couple of min song I posted LYNNE2 ??

Lynne2 said...

yep. HA HA HA!

Such sadness in DC. Judie, I think you'll be mighty lucky if the Wannabes don't ask questions tomorrow.

Sorry to hear Bev is in hospital again. I agree....these girls spend far too much time there!

JudyEddy said...

belle turned and poop shoot

JudyEddy said...

and another POOF

Lynne2 said...

we have a new kitten at work. Of our clients who raises and trains hunting pointers and setters brought a dog in this morning. When she came inside, she said that the dog actually pointed "game" in the yard! Turns out it was this little black kitten who then proceeded to climb up one of the trees, and then couldn't get down. So Dr. B got out the ladder (in the rain) and climbed up to get her!

FYI....cats often get stuck in trees because their claws are not curved in a manner to descend, only to ascend. They become frightened trying to come back down and often either stay put, or jump!

JudyEddy said...

all news BONES

Janet said...

good evening all.

yes, tonight is UNDER THE DOME! no i have never read the book but i want to now.... although i just ordered 4 books.....so, that will have to wait a little while.

yoga in a bit. will watch UTD tomorrow.

been a busy few days. i glanced over everyone's posts....

classes were good this weekend....but i always end up tired.

yes, i do get migraines...thankfully not as often anymore i had another therapist work out my shoulders and neck today...traps, scalenes, pecs, scm all spasmed down which likely caused the migraine. also why i am going ot yoga shortly.

regarding today's events: light and love to all involved....such a tragedy yet again..

and the miss america bologna! i am upset by people berating this lovely young woman. to all those who berate her i would love to say unless you are a native american, your ancestors are from another country, get a grip!!!!

hope everyone has a pleasant evening...time to hit the yoga trail!

Lori O. said...

JANET,
what's the Miss America scoop? Sorry, I don't much besides study these days...must have missed the story. But, I liked your 2 cents!

magpie said...

Jo:
I am sorry to read that BEV is not feeling so good.....thank you for
bringing this to us.....
I offer my prayers for her,
good vibes and positive energy...


and Prayers for all the tragic events in Washington DC today....
I am very sad about all this,
and troubled to the core

Safety is precious but hard won,
I know we must live, NOT in fear,
but with due care and caution and
attention....these things seem to be like a runaway train

(( EVENING HUGS ))


JudyEddy said...

Bones is on commercial and I also don't know the scoop on the Miss America thing Do tell

JudyEddy said...

HMM I wonder if I google it will go try

JudyEddy said...

FYI pic from the past week are now in the album

magpie said...

Oh dear, and now I read back about
Christie's Shannon with an unpassable kidney stone: OUCH!!
Mega prayers for that too...

and for Lori: BRAVO CLAP CLAP CLAP,
86% on your test today, that is
totally AWESOME !!

I hope to catch up on more
and say nice and encouraging things to all, but in the meantime,
Please know that I CARE xo ♥

JudyEddy said...

Miss America is NEwYOrk

magpie said...

Bravo for Dr. B on the kitten rescue,
Lynne ♥

paula eagleholic said...

Evening, all.

Home from another great day at work!

Took Nick for a long walk, then worked on weeding my outside small patio area. Got it almost done before dark. Clouds finally were clearing off when I got home, had a nice sunset. It was mostly cloudy and windy here today...couples of sprinkles.

Gotta get caught up...

paula eagleholic said...

Lori, I think you are doing just fine on your school work!

Sorry to hear about Bev.

Didn't even watch the news tonight, so I hadn't heard of the shootings in DC. Will catch it online or the 11pm news.

Hoda said...

Prayers For DC

Prayers for BEV

LORI I join the chorus of praise. Blessed Be.
I hear you about how tough it is and can be.
I have faith you will be alright.
Congratulations.

Tomorrow I take my car to the body shop and drive a rental for two days.

Good day trip today. Good hike and picnic

Days are getting shorter and we were in the 60's
We had tremendous rain.



stronghunter said...

86%

Sounds just perfect to me, Lori.

Sorry about Shannon's kidney stone. Hope it gets fixed quickly.

Trying to keep up with DWTS as I write...

Hoda said...

The Big Chap upstairs has opened the taps full blast again.
It is raining it is pouring the old man is snoring...

Hoda said...

If this keeps up we will have flash floods.
Pouncing off the asphalt!!!

Hoda said...

Would all if you with rain and umbrella avatars PLEASE TAKE THEM DOWN???!!!
JUFIE'S hand is at play here...redirected from Texas to up North.

Judie said...

Been a long and sad day in these parts. Tired. Heading to bed soon.

Hoda, Jufie's rationale is that if its raining and pouring enough for the old man to be snoring, you will stay inside and out of trouble. Hope the car will be fixed up good as new. Can just picture it now -- Hoda in her rental Miata tooling around Nelson with a box of brownies.

Glad you got mostly caught up Paula and especially your Nick time.

Happy for the rescued kitten.

Sandperson is packing a super-size satchel. Jufie is skulking around the Canadian border. I am headed to the pillows. Restful sleep for all.



magpie said...

JudyE
Your double eagle with
beauteous sunset skies
is spectacular, by the way...

thank you

stronghunter said...

Rain for those who need rain, and sunshine for those who need sunshine.

Hoda said...

Keep JUFIE south of the border!!!
My oh my!!!
Thunder and lightning and the rain has not eased off.

I am so tired of shootings and trying to figure out why!!!

God Bless You and keep you all.

Hoda said...

I have to google Miata!

SHIRLEY you are forever a Diplomat.
Love to you.

stronghunter said...

It has been a sad day. Rus called me very soon after things started happening because he was concerned. He got quite a few text messages from people who thought he might be at the Navy Yard.

Prayers for those injured and those killed and for their families.

Hoda said...

Good Lord JUDIE!!!
I had better sell a whole bunch of brownies and then something stronger than brownies to be able to drive a Miata!!!
That is not going to happen in my future I feel safe on saying!!!

Lynne2 said...

we have a new kitten at work. Of our clients who raises and trains hunting pointers and setters brought a dog in this morning.

Going to say good night and get under the covers.

Yawning big time here. Tomorrow is bowling and a football game. Also team pictures for Hunter.

Hunter has been practicing for a new position . . . center. I think he is enjoying getting to handle the ball more.

SED, everyone.

Lori O. said...

Good Morning all eagle buddies!

PAULA, glad you are loving your new job, and Nick is being well cared for by his wonderful Mommy!


Warming up here a little today then a little more each day through Friday. 68 today.


Test today is on Asepsis and Infection Control -- one of those subjective, critical thinking tests that I don't like. It's much harder than a knowledge based test.

Cutest thing! My Aunt brought over a tiny black kitten over the weekend. I made a bed for it behind the big A/C compressor by the back door. This morning I walked out and the Orange Mama with her two orange kittens were in the bed with the tiny black kitten smack in the middle of the pile, sucking away. Gosh, it was cute.

Okay, got another chapter to study before school, so I'm off.

Hope everyone has a fantastic, blessed day. Big hugs all around!


magpie said...

Good Early Morning, Eagle Pals

going in a little earlier than usual, but I WILL SEE Jewels for a few brief Precious Moments....

{I think she is on duty now)

Lori: Best wishes on Asepsis and
Infection Control...important stuff, I think you will do well!

Best Wishes for a Good Safe Day for Every One

Sandi said...

Good morning Lori, Margy, and all my eagle friends.

Hoping that the rain stops in British Columbia and in Colorado and moves on to Texas.

Prayers for all of the Navy Yard victims.

Mema Jo said...

Good morning to all ♥
It sure is a morning where you need to find the sunshine and be warmed up a little. It is clear and 55°

Wishing a good prosperous day in all ways for everyone

Shirley hope you surprise yourself with your high rolling score.

Time for coffee - BBL

Good Morning Eagle Buds !

Slow day emerging here as everyone heads for work, school and other endeavors.

My heart aches over the Navy Yard shooting incident---way too many such stories these days---surely the collective "we" must wake up and do something about this disturbing trend. I have no solution, but hope, somehow, there is a breakthrough in the mental health field that help address the needs of so many very sick people.

Wow, LYNNE2, I've lived on this orb for over 76 years and never knew why cats can't get themselves out of trees ! Thanks that kernel of knowledge !!!!

BEV, prayers with you, of course ! Your local hospital is going to have to name a wing after you, your sis and family if this keeps up ! So stop it !!!! Seriously, I hope the medicos find out what ails you and comes up with a good fix !

JUDYE, Angie is training Jordyn well ! She must have had a good role model !

LOLLY, I heard rain was headed your way as it leaves NM and CO. Just hope it isn't as damaging as that experienced north of you.

JO, sure hope Shannon gets the relief needed---I hear kidney stones create THE worst kind of pain one can experience ! Prayers !

SHIRLEY, fingers are crossed for your bowling day !

LORI, shame on you for berating yourself for a solid B ! I look forward to the day when you can relax a bit over this new turn in the road. You're going to be one great nurse ! {{{{{{{LORI}}}}}}}}

PAULA, it's wonderful to read about your job satisfaction ! I'm glad you were to busy to realize what was happening in D.C. yesterday. Just as well to catch up later !

MARGY, glad you receive up to the minute classes on dealing with such atrocities, but hope you'll never see such a day on your job !

Hey, JUDIE, SANDIE, HODA n' JANET---good to see you this a.m. !

Have a good day all and know my love and prayers are with you all !

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Kay said...

Oh, and meant to thank you, LORI, for the feel good story about the little black kitten and the family it attracted ! So sweet !

Mema Jo said...

This is from Bev this AM:
Beverly Crisco Riffe
Dr. Parrish just came in. They are gonna do a barium swallow and consult the surgeon who did the surgery on my esophagus a few years ago. —

Prayers for Bev

Hoda said...

Prayers for BEV

Thinking of you with your exam LORI.

Speaks of more rain. Sitting at 55.

Will take the car in and do some volunteer price list evaluations for yoga festival.

Yoga in the evening.

Have a terrific day



Lolly said...

Good morning! If we got as much rain as Colorado there would be plenty of flooding but not the damage they have had, Not many rivers and no canyons!!! Homes also not built beside rivers. Lakes are 20 ft below level. People are having to mow where there used to be water, Docks have lawn below them. We have 20% chance of an isolated storm but it goes up to 50% Friday. I will believe rain when I see it. It has been 2 full months now without a drop. What is really sad is the trees that are dying.

Mema Jo said...

The Ostrich eggs (3) should start hatching on 10/12 - my b-day present
WHoo Hoo I am praying for 3 healthy little Pips ♥

Hoda said...

10/12 is also Canadian Thanksgiving and my American Mom's Birthday JO

Hoda said...

Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.

Judie said...

Good afternoon.

Jo, what a cool birthday present three little Ostrich babes. That would be too cool.

Speaking of cool, very chilly this morning but lots of sunshine. Wishing the rain away from B.C. and CO. and on to TX.

Hoping that Bev gets an answer and a solution to her health problem and that Shannon gets relief.

Just heard what I thought might be thunder but realize it is Shirley tossing bowling balls straight down the ally. Big score, please.

Ah, and there's Hoda. Getting ready to celebrate the Canadian Thanksgiving. Any special foods (other than brownies)?

Okay, off to change into my relaxing clothes.

BBL

Mema Jo said...

Here is hoping we get a fresh new thread before we hit 400 ♥

Mema Jo said...

Judie and Hoda - this blog would be meaningless without you two! You both keep us going full steam ahead ♥

Hoda said...

You are so kind JO.
The Blog is a good place to meet and share with friends.
I know gratitude.

Friends of Kootenay Lake just phoned to ask if I could go out on a boat ride and test the waters next Tuesday.
I said yes.

The car is in for body shop repairs. They gave me a car that is all automatic and alarms go off when I unlock with key!!! It talks at me!!!
I am nervous!!!
I have to unlock and lock not with a key but with an instrument that pushes buttons!!! I don't even have to be next to the car to do so!!!

YIKES!!!


Judie said...

Ooooo! Hoda has a new toy!

Must contact the RCMP to have them block her careening into the lower 48.

Hoda said...

Well JUDIE you do not need to warn the RCMP... The alarm on the courtesy car seems to go off if I so much as look at it sideways!!!
I am afraid to use it as I get very embarrassed when it happens. It is a Ford don't ask me what kind...

Hope to hear from CHRISTIE and BEV
PRAYING

Sandi said...

Helloooooo - anybody home??? Not one post in 3 1/2 hours - what's up with that???

I was exhausted all day - 2 Nyquil tablets last night wiped me out! Struggled to get through the day, then took a 2 hour nap as soon as I walked in the door and took the dogs out to pee.

Nest tree is MT.

Couldn't find any news about Bev or Christie's Shannon on FB - hope they are both doing better. Will check in again before bedtime.

Later.

JudyEddy said...

Hello
Check out the view of Venus, Saturn, and my favorite star, Zubenelgenubi, in the southwestern sky right after sunset.

JudyEddy said...

that was on facebook from Paul

Hoda said...

Hi SANDI... Glad you took a nap.
How are your eyes?
Still getting flashes?

Rain has stopped here. Sun is out. Certainly Autumn.

The Grans asked me to work the Salmo Fall Fair. I said yes.
First Saturday of October. I will be with The Dragon Team to take out the boat and then will drive to Salmo to help with the Grans.

A sign of Autumn the volunteer opportunities that present themselves.

JudyEddy said...

paula eagleholic said...

Evening, all!

Glad to read of a quiet day here and everywhere!

Good luck bowling, Shirley!

Margy, glad you got to see Jewels for a few...

Did my usual tonight, walk on the beach, then finished up the patio area. Looks much better! Next up is where to put my plants...and clothes!

Janet said...

HODA: out galavanting in a car that she thinks is talkign to her...how many brownies has SHE had today?????

SHIRLEY: how was bowling? we won a game this past sunday. i had two good games and one that wasn't so good....

Hope everyone has had a good day. Going to watch under the dome shortly...

SED. light, love and smiles to all

Judie said...

Don't tell Hoda but the alarms have been rigged by the Evil Jufie. Just let her think it's the "brownie effect."

Watched Brooklyn 99. Not great but I like the actors. Will give it another try.

Janet, glad you got all your fun stuff done today.

Paula, I understand. Have really had to clean out a bunch. Maybe Mr. Studmuffin has some space.

Sandi, hope you feel better and tomorrow will be a good day.

Judy, we need a Jordyn update on how she likes her new home.

Hmmm, no report from Shirley. Hope the bowling was good.

Hi to Margy and to Kay.

Where's Jo?

JudyEddy said...

saw this on facebook and thought I would bring over

BEV

I am scheduled for an EGD in the morning. Not feeling quite as bad this evening. Thank you all so much for the well wishes. Tom and Mattie and Joshua and Brittany came and visited this evening and helped pass the time. Good night everyone.

Judie said...

Good grief! Sandperson is yelling at Jufie for playing games with Hoda and her new toy. Jufie is yelling at Sandperson to get out of the closet and to take the satchel with him. Sandperson is screeching about so many momsters to visit. I'm heading to the pillows.

Restful sleep for all.

JudyEddy said...

Haven't spoken with Angie today but last heard Jordyn loved the house She loves the 6 car driveway to ride her bike up and down and around and around I just wish there were sidewalks
They do live on a dead end I think there are 6 house on each side I think they are 3 house from end on road not for sure will have to double check next time I go over and she is always asking we get to keep it LOL

JudyEddy said...

I also tried the new 99 show maybe the second is better will try also

JudyEddy said...

I tried the other show Dads but not liking it anyway can't wait for terrific tues to start

magpie said...

So cool, JudyE...the paved areas for Jordyn to run and play and ride and eventually skate and skate board and who knows what else!
Congratulations once again

I once lived in a house, a long corridor of a place with little rooms on either side, was once a hospital corridor...(at the VA Medical Center in Martinsburg...)
where we could ride bikes and do rollerskating IN the house...
Wheee, it was fun

magpie said...

And then there were the endless sidewalks and parking lots out there too....things were quite safe back in those days

Janet...sounds like some big A++++ things for you today and every day, you and Hoda, squeeeze the most of these 24 hours you are given

Paula...loving your daily reports on Life in Paradise, so very happy for you

Hi,

Am sitting in my bed winding down from a very busy day. I was not at home very much. Hunter's football game went very well. They won. Not sure, but I think the score was 22-12 or something thereabouts.

Bowling went well. Our team won. I still have to improve accuracy, though. I get very frustrated sometimes.

Mema Jo said...

Good late evening to all ♥

On FB I see Annie's picture ♥
Also I saw Dex picture ♥
My Marvin was not feeling well through the night - slept well and most of today also. Around 1:15pm he got up, ate, used the litter box and back he went to sleep. I know he isn't feeling too well but hoping it is just like a bug.

stronghunter said...

Hunter did get to play center. He also played on the defensive team, so he was in for most of the game.

Mema Jo said...

I found NO TV this evening - Like Judy I am ready for Terrific Tuesday to return!

stronghunter said...

Hope Marvin is okay, Jo. Cats do like to sleep.

Lolly said...

Used to ride my bike all over our town, That is what was so great about small towns, years and years ago. Rode it to school too and it did not have to be locked. Car horn called us home. One long and two short meant the Hendrick kids better get home! :)

stronghunter said...

Going to say good night. All the running around has me plumb wore out. Will check back a bit...I remember that you all were saying something about Andy not feeling well.

Lolly said...

Had fun posting Annie's picture on fb, After it posted I got texts from Joseph, He sent pictures of Luke, Isabelle and PC, saying they wanted ice cream, too, So funny!

stronghunter said...

Prayers and good wishes for Andy, Sandi, Bev, Shannon, and anyone else who feels ill or slightly under the weather. Also for those in Colorado who have suffered in the flooding and those in Texas who need the rain.

God bless and good night.

Lolly said...

Annie does know when we are eating ice cream and she comes, sits by me and stares. I know this sounds unsanitary, but I let her lick the dish. It gets sterilized!! Have to give her something...she is just too cute! Especially when she reaches out with her paw.

Lolly said...

News is on about time to close it down for the night,

Night all! SED!!

Mema Jo said...

Goodnight to all ♥
AOYP and SED

Prayers for all in need
Sleep soundly and dream peacfully

paula eagleholic said...

Aww, that is cute about Annie putting her paw out for the ice cream. I let Nick lick plates too ( don't tell Larry :-) )

Hoda said...

Good night
God Bless Us All

Ms Bookworm said...

Good Evening, Everyone!

Gracious, I need to get caught up better--just skimmed through the posts. I see that Bev needs some prayers! Sure hope the doctors find out what the problem is, and fix it, pronto!

Lolly, praying for a good report for Jack! This waiting must be getting to you a bit!

I forget who it was that said they were coming down with a cold. Prayers that you'll feel better really soon!

I'm feeling fine. The hot, humid weather was wearing me down, but today was much better. The high was 82, and the low this morning was a glorious 60 degrees!

Have been really busy today trying to get more of the housework done.
Made some progress.

The shootings in the Navy Yard are such a tragedy! Shirley, I'm glad that Rus is OK! This is certainly an uncertain world we live in! Prayers for that whole situation!

Well, I need to try to get some sleep, so will say goodnight and God bless! The porch light is on, and both security systems are enabled. SED, everyone! I ♥ us!!!

Lori O. said...

Good Morning Eagle family!

Yesterday's test was a disaster---class average was 61%....I got a 71%, just one point from passing with a C. So more than half the class failed, still doesn't make me feel better. It was one of those weird subjective thinking tests and the hardest one we've had to date. BOOOO-HISSSSSSS!

Today I find out what skills I have to demonstrate for the instructions tomorrow on Skills Day. It will also be the first day we wear our uniforms. They're kind of checking us out before we go into the hospitals for clinicals...and today we get our clinical assignments. I sure hope Cynthia and I get somewhere close.

SHIRLEY, how was your bowling? I'm anxious to see if your mental and physical practicing was of benefit to you. I'm sure you did well. Go CYCLONE!

LOLLY, glad Annie is doing well.

PAULA and LOLLY, my dogs lick the plates, too! lol

Walked outside this morning and saw the same pile of orange cats with the little, tiny black one in the middle. It's so sweet because he's so tiny, and the Mom just took him in.

JO, how is Marvelous Marvin feeling today?

JANET, thanks for explaining the Miss American debacle. I looked it up on CNN and agree with you! She's beautiful and seems like a lovely young woman.

Well, I guess I should get off here and go study for today's test. It's the Integumentary (skin) System. Did you know that each of us has about 20 pounds of skin on our bodies, and we shed 500 million dead skin cells a day! Good thing it regenerates quickly.

Prayers for BEV and Christy's Shannon.

Love you all!!!

Have a fantabulous day!
