As it is I am getting growls from you know whom!!! he he

1:17 am here, so it's time to head to the dark room. WELCOME back, Roland! We have missed you! Great TOPP, June! Hi, also, to Bean! Enjoy your evening, DUGs! And now, good night!

Welcome back Rolanda! And now I've just been told dinner is ready so I will have to go - and you will all be gone when I get back. I've put up a few photos of today - it went really well and Ally has 2 more 'bookings'....

Welcome home Rolanda and I think it was you anniversary last Thursday so Happy Anniversary as well.

And yes we did miss you.

Pot, you are lucky I continued reading before posting! I was well and truly going to come on here and give you a blasting, of course I was up! Had done heaps of ffuts and everything by that time! Anyway, now I have to eat humble pie...very noice with whipped cream BTW!

Mama, what a beautiful way to celebrate Sully's birthday. I think it was a perfect tribute to the love of your life. I know it's a little late, but I will raise a glass in his memory tonight.

Miss you!!!! I haven't stopped looking for you on msn!

June, it sonds like your hubby has man-flu....

Susan, we have missed you and I'm sorry your Mum is unwell. No sympathy! Just thoughts and wishes! You aren't grrrrring at your son so I'm guessing the program he downloaded was one you all wanted.

Mamacita, what a great way to celebrate the time you and Sully had together. You are always an inspiration.

Suzy, the photos are great.
You must be so proud of Ally.
Ebob!!! Unrecognisable!

Thanks for the welcome back Bean, Julie, Suzy, June, Gail and Mariana..

Will see everyone tomorrow, sometime...

Oh by the way..

Had a great 3 week holidaying in Albany.. very relaxing, noice swims in the ocean, lots of reading, catching up with family and friends...
the weather was almost perfect mid 20'sC, a couple of real hot days ( 35C and 41C) grr!!

Mariana, thank you for the update on the twins, I was wondering....

On Wednesday Ally and the girls will be performing for a group of disabled children. I told her she was going to be doing something very special. 'Cool' was her answer.

Rolanda, that sounds wonderful! I've been watching the weather and fire reports while you've been gone and wondering if you were getting the best or worst of it.

Gail, I am very proud - glowing almost as much as my sunburnt girls!

Over an hour with no posts... I have been trying to work out facebook, waste of time, it's like a foreign language to me! I have also been reading the news again - yes, I do that a lot. Guess I'm just a sticky beak! But now I am going to go and watch tele with hubby and the kids. It has been a long day...

Great photos of your daughters Suzy.

Susan, hope everything gets easier for you and your Mum.It does get harder as they get older. I see you have been busy thanking everyone for your birthday greetings. You were better than me as I have only just finished doing mine!

Mamacita, a wonderful way to remember Sully! I amsure he looked on and smiled.

Welcome back Rolanda.
Hope your having a relaxing night Suzy. If there is such a thing. Hi June. I should go to bed here.
I always seem to find one more thing to do on pooter, but then I love my pooter.

everybody...see you on the flip side..have a good day.

GOOD Maen SUDOKULAND!


Ready for coffee? I know I am!

Phantom Report

That sweling and cut above his eye is much better, all other wounds have healed. He is in trouble this morning though. I had covered my just emerging daffodills ( in a container) with a folded, thick blanket to protect them from the cold. He had decided it made a good place to nap, and today, even though I had removed blanket, he was gack on top of the container. It has a latice work top, that both helps hold the plants upright and helps keep the kitties off new baby plants, but decided I must teach him this is NOT a sleeping place. I still had some branches of evergreen, so I put that over the top, they are a bit sticky and must not smell nice to kitties, he m oved his sleeping place to a deck chair! He is really a smart kitty, just have to let him know what the rules are, and he will comply.

HI ROLANDA, good to have you back home! Does Peter go back to work tomorrow? Did you bring home a mountain of clothes to feed the machine? How did the boys manage for 3 weeks without Mom?

I am glad you had good weather mostly and enjoyed your time away.

Good morning all. I just stopped in for a quick hello. Hubby is going to work and the boys and I are going shopping. I need to buy navy pants for tuesday. They are asking everyone at my school to wear navy pants and a white shirt or an Obama tshirt for inauguration day. We will not be doing much teaching, we will be watching the inauguration. We have special lesson plans for the day.

MizT.... not many people have the common sense to be able to think like a cat. I'm impressed. Glad Phantom is feeling better, too.

Mama..... Great way to celebrate Sully's birthday! Just keep celebrating his life, no matter what anyone says.

I was going to take out the tractor and go to Buffalo for another 10 rolls of hay today, but it's snowing. My tractor wouldn't have any problem with it, but other drivers are idiots and could cause an accident with a slow moving vehicle. Plus with the weight (1 ton each), I would be unable to stop quickly in an emergency. I think I'll hold off until tomorrow.

I've been told that the roads are OK, so I'm off.

back Rolanda!

Good morning everyone..So much reading since I was here last,that I couldn't comment to all.
Hope Mum & Bub are doing well!
I have a dental appointment tonight at 6pm,it took me 6 weeks to get the courage to make the call,then another 6 to get in.Wish me luck,am terrified of dentists.

Time I thought about getting ready for work.Have a great day/night everyone.

NOLA, best of luck dear, I hope the dentist appointment is brief and painless.

HEIDI, I hope your trip to get hay for the cattle is uneventful. Here we had rain and you might hate me for mentioning it, but our temp is 57 degrees and sun. I have been outside in shirt sleeves. Now mind you with the wind, would not want to be in the shade, but in the sun, or out of the wind it is pleasant out now.

I get my ability to communicate with these cats from living with Al, I think. I do think he was a cat in a former life! He makes cats mind.

Haven't left yet. Too lazy to get up, and got busy ordering stuff for the new finches. They'll be arriving later this week, and require special feeds made only for Lady Gouldian's. It'll arrive on Tuesday, before the finches. I plan on pocking up a small cage to start with, and adding a bigger flight and breeding cage later.

Would you believe that there are only 2,500 Lady Gouldian Finches left alive in the wild?

Morning all!
Heidi - it was a long time ago, but I'm about 90% sure my grandfather kept his finches in outdoor aviaries. One of the benefits of living somewhere with a much milder climate. He had lady gouldians, but many other types as well.

Nola - for some reason the dentist doesn't scare me, though I was very nervous the first time I went after having my jaw wired shut for 8 weeks. The dentist was rubbing his hands together - thought he was going to make a fortune out of me. Not one cavity!!!

Those finches do come from a fairly restricted area Heidi at the top of Australia.

Tami - the navy pants, white shirt thing is funny - that is our high school's winter uniform! Not that I bought the pants this year - very annoyed about how low cut they are. I think we are going to see almost as much of the inauguration as Americans based on the ads I'm seeing.

With all the new dental equipment the dentist now is now as bad as it used to be. I alsmost went to sleep one time!.

Hi June! What are your plans for today?
