It’s below zero in Ely, MN and it’s snowing on Lily, the black bear, in her den. She continues to covet and cover her newborn cub, not letting us have a peek at the new arrival....

;-)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Knocking on wood....until the last 30 minutes it went VERY well. Now the internet has slowed to a crawl.

Hiya ButThreeLeftsDo!

I've been checking in on Lily several times per day & she sure does have some new snow.

I can't wait for a peek but she sure does seem to be a very good mama bear!;-}

All is well with you? *Hugs*

I had a slow computer all day at work today. Home seems to be ok.

I suspect internet will become slow tonight.

Glad it was a good day though!

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

I’m well, staying warm....

I hate my job.

But, other than that.....it’s all good!!

[AZamericonnie]

Glad your staying warm, sorry about the job & hope things get better!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Safe commute going home? No critters blocking the road? Are you watching or listening to himself? I tried the radio, but can’t do it. I’ll read the live thread later tonight.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

I’m late to the party, but here goes:

Post your thoughts: I’m in a pretty good mood.

Opinions: I have one on EVERY subject. Don’t get me started, LOL!

News of the day: My Boss was gone most of the day. We got a lot done!

Rantings: Fer Pete’s Sake! WHY can’t they make a hair conditioner that works well on long, curly hair?!?

Ravings: I just love chocolate. Can’t get enough of it. I would die without it!

Pontifications: Proverbs 31:10: ‘A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies!’

Hypothesis: I’m starting to believe in that, ‘the world is round’ thing. *SHRUG*

Hyperboles: “I’ve told you a million times don’t exaggerate.”

Your soap box cause: For Pete’s Sake! Spay and neuter your pets!

Your mantra: ‘Save the earth. It’s the only planet with chocolate.

Your baggage: “Well, my bags are packed, I’m ready to go. I’m standin’ here outside your door. I hate to wake you up to say good-bye...”

My garbage: I took the garbage out on the wrong day last week. That MLK Monday Off screwed up my whole week! But, I THINK garbage day is tomorrow. I guess we’ll see about that!

My Secret: I’m an Open Book, LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, AZ, for today's It's Scuttlebutt Time !!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Giving up...gotta run an errand for my Mom, so I’ll be back in a bit.

[AZamericonnie]

A safe commute indeed....nary a critter in sight!

Got ducks?:)

Kinda watching the one....not really understanding!
