Knock me over with a feather Heidi! You doing nuffin???
How is the terror Lucky?
Cyn, how is your Mum's boyfriend doing, is he behaving himself?
Gail, wishing George a long and happy retirement.

Thanks, Dag!

The terror, Lucky, is doing fairly well. I alternate between worrying about him when he has his seizures and wanting to strangle him the rest of the time. He does NOT like it when I try to leave the house. He has started nipping me.... hard.... when I try to leave. I have bruises all over my arms and breasts from his nips. I just keep telling myself "He WILL outgrow this!".

By "nothing", I mean no big projects. Just routine stuff like feeding the critters. I will have several hours to kick back and maybe watch a movie, accompanied by a big mug of hot cocoa and some buttery popcorn. Heaven!

I know.... it's 4 am. Having a touch of insomnia.

eaa

Wow eaa it's your birthday! what was that Beatles song?

Heidi, nips on your arms and breasts!!!!! Hey I would not even put up with that from Bella, she will occasionally give me a nip on the heel if I am not moving quick enough getting her dinner, but then I want control so she has to wait. You taught me well.

You say it's your birthday
It's my birthday too--yeah
They say it's your birthday
We're gonna have a good time
I'm glad it's your birthday
Happy birthday to you.

Yes we're going to a party party

You say it's your birthday
We're gonna have a good time
I'm glad it's your birthday
Happy birthday to you. eaa!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY eaa! It seems I have lost my smilies today, bummer, so no great celebratory graphics, but know I am doing the birthday dance with Broni!

Too many pages behind to catch up this morning. We had a very busy weekend. I cooked Thursday and Friday for back to back parties where everyone brings food. One was my family christmas, other was neighborhood party. So that takes care of Saturday and Sunday. Monday I did the last of my shopping, now for wrapping those last minute gifts, I think I have 3 to do.

We have one more party, Christmas Day going to hubby's Brother's house. Another road trip, why did my sister and his brother have to live about an hour and a half away, in different directions???

Today will warm up , from heavy frost this morning and temps at 32F ( 0 C) to low 60's. I will wait a couple hours to do my morning walk hehehe.

Hugs to All and extras to any who need them, and hope to catch up later,

Good Maen everyone! Missed a bunch of pages (3 or 4). Can't remember what I wanted to say other than hello and Merry Christmas/Happy Hannukah.
Gail: Thanks for the message. I hope you & your family have a great holiday too.
Went out with my friend Janet & her daughter Mallory yesterday (shopping, lunch etc). We had a GREAT time. Mallory is 17 and a total sweetheart!! Hope all is well with everyone, it's been VERY foggy here the last 4-5 days. That's all for now, TTFN.

Despite a lazy day today, I find I need to go grocery shopping and lumber shopping. Tomorrow Robert and I are going to finish repairing some wooden fences that the cows and Mother Nature tore down. I have to start getting the front pasture ready for calving season. That starts in 1 month.

I need to do some laundry first.

(I know... I haven't quite mastered the concept of doing nothing.)

It doesn't seem that long since you had calving this year Heidi, where has the year gone!

Good morning everyone.

eaa,enjoy your very special day.
We had a nice cooling thunder storm last night with some very welcome rain.
Hope you all have a great christmas and break away from the usual.Take care.

Hi everyone. Just had a successful shopping trip with the boys. The beasties both need suits for Mitchell's big day. Got both boys suits, and shoes for Dylan. Ended up with a good price, less than expected and not much needed in alterations. Mitchell needed the pants shortened and Dylan needed the pants shortened and jacket sleeves shortened. I will post pictures in January.

Good to hear you are getting on top of all the preparations needed Tami.Bet the boys look so handsome in the suits.

How could they NOT look handsome? They're good looking boys to start with.

Good Mornning my friends.
Today will probably be the last day I will be able to catch up with you all, as tomorrow I work and have Teresa and Maz over for dinner, then out on the boat bright and early Christmas morning.
So wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a . Wishing you the best New Year ever!

Have a fantastic christmas break on the boat Broni.
Health and happiness for 2010!

Have a lovely time with Teresa and Maz, and the most relaxing time ever out on the boat.
Gonna miss you Dag xoxo

Broni. I wish I could join you out on the boat. (Without Lucky)

Merry Christmas Broni! I know you will have a fantastic time with Maz and Teresa and out on the boat.. Don't forget us while you're gone!

Broni, have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Have a great time on the boat and don't forget about all your friends.

I hope she has SUCH a great time that she DOES forget us!
and

Good morning you wonderful SA people.
to eaa - I hope you poke that furry nose into SA today. Have a wonderful day.
to Broni - do enjoy your days out on the ocean blue. We'll miss you here.

I think I'm more excited about the auction ending in 5 days (Fife Canaries) than I am about Christmas. I posted a bigger picture of the birds I get to chose from, on my page.

to all you dear wonderful SA people - you save my sanity daily. If I feel sad, worried or low, I come here. If I have good news to tell I come here. You are all my dear friends and I'm overjoyed that I got to meet more of you this year - that was one of the highlights of my year,
A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU (AND YOURS) AND MY BEST WISHES FOR A SAFE, HAPPY AND HEALTHY 2010!!

Gosh that felt good, I haven't used many smilies in a while.
I am exhausted - had 15 people here last night - 'just to look at the lights' - it was lovely but I thought they'd all never go. Phew, and it's not even Christmas day yet.

Thank you to every one that has left me birthday wishes, Christmas and New Year greetings. I have left a note on top of 'my page' for you all.

I'm sorry I'm won't have the time to chat 'til after the new year. Loves ya all!

OO0PPs! I'm won't = I wont.

Hi and bye eaa!
Here's the clincher about last night. As everyone got up to leave, we all picked up plates, coffee cups, glasses etc and brought them inside but someone (you whistle and I'll point at Colin who was last in the door) left one plate of food still on the outdoor table. When we came back out there, the dog was perched ON THE TABLE happily eating Christmas cake, shortbread and rumballs. Had to throw the rest away and I spent a very nervous night hoping her digestive system could take the onslaught without having disastrous effects on our bedroom carpet, if you know what I mean. She survived and has just polished off her breakfast as if she had never been fed so I guess her constitution is stronger than I thought.

Good Morning everyone

I see Gail and I are living up to our Twin Status!!

hehe Sorry about that, I will change mine.

good idea missy..

Good Morning to you Rolanda! Hope all is well with you today. Ready for Christmas? What is your family doing this year?

How is your Mom? Hope she is continuing to improve daily.

I liked the twin thing hehehe would keep us on our toes, sorting out who is really "speaking".

Then how will we tell you two apart???
