Howdy, LUV!

It turned out to be a nice afternoon but I woke up at noon to rain thundering on the roof for several minutes. It did the same thing when I went to bed this morning. No build-up to it, just BAM! Made the cats jump and made me jump too. LOL! It was loud.

The sun was out by the time I left to take Sasha to the vet. Made it up to almost 70, and tomorrow will be another day close to 80. We could get used to this!

Glad your weather has improved a bit. It was awfully cold yesterday.

[radu]

Howdy, Pro.

Is your back still behaving after dealing with the long work day? Hope it’s finally squared away. Last week couldn’t have been fun.

[luvie]

Wow! That would have scared me, too. Especially since it’s been so long since I heard it. LOL!

I hope Sasha is going to be ok. Is it just routine stuff?

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

Things a little better at work today?

Saw this on one of the downtown cams a few minutes ago. Are they able to scrape off enough ice to make driving a little easier for y'all?

Up to Cleveland and then points west.

[luvie]

Sounds like a pretty good plan! Hope you have fair skies all the way!

[luvie]

Well, can’t say as I blame you! Sweet dreams. Hope you feel better in the morning. Take Nyquil. LOL! If nothing else, it’ll put you out for a few blessed hours. -_- zzzzz......

[luvie]

Thanks for the ping-a-ling, Kathy! Hope your day went smoothly and you have no homework tonight! :) Then you could hang out with us for a longer time.

[radu]

We’re used to hearing rain beat on the roof but this was coming down a lot harder than we’ve heard. It almost sounded like hail, but it wasn’t. It didn’t last long either time but it had water running in rivers across the farm. We ended up with an inch in the gauge for the day.

I took Sasha in to be tested for hyperthyroid because everything pointed to it. Nope.
They took a stool sample and her good bacteria in the intestines is out of whack pretty bad. That will make it hard for her intestines to absorb the nutrients like it’s supposed to and leave her thin and hungry all the time. Got an antibiotic and will get some Fortiflora for her tomorrow.

Everything else during the checkup turned out just fine.

[radu]

Oh, forgot to mention ..... we have a second egg at MN! She laid it this afternoon.
And now they’re getting snow. :-( A half hour ago it was a blizzard but there’s a little break right now.
Those poor eagles can’t get a break.

[PROCON]

Hiya radu!

Back is 'back' in shape, just had a bout of pain for awhile.

Tomorrow will be easy and then on to the weekend!

I'm planning on going to see my daughter in Seattle on Sunday if the mountain passes aren't too snowed-in. Also going to see an old friend if time permits.

Son's over now, I'll kick him out in a bit but we're having fun.

The frigid weather is about to warm up here, but not quite yet.

Hope your day was OK.

[luvie]

They sure can’t! While she was trying to lay that egg, the nest was attacked by another eagle and her NEW mate, Bill [LOL], fought it off. The chatters thought it might be her old mate, Dad.

She’s never going to have a chance to fluff that nest. It’s either snowing or she’s off looking for food because Bill is not used to being a dad-to-be. :)

[radu]

Glad to hear your back’s behaving again.

Cool! I hope the mountains are in good enough shape you can make the trip to see your daughter and friend. Sounds like a good time ahead!
And the weather warming up again is a nice bonus.

A good enough day here. Warm, it rained for a bit, then the sun came out. Made a run to the vet with Sasha and that was it for getting out and about.

[luvie]

Also, DNN mom is on the nest and sort of acts like she’s wanting to lay an egg tonight. We’re gonna have bobbleheads EVERYwhere!

Sorry about Sasha’s eating disorder...or rather intestinal disorder.Is the Fortiflora sort of vitamins to help her stay healthier than she would otherwise?

[oldteen]

Good evening Ms. Stand-In Hangin’ Hostess!
