COLD DARK ROOM
- Thread starter Tidgy's Dad
- Start date
Br-r-r-r it's very cold in here this a.m. I haven't started making fires in the wood stove yet because the days are still sunny and warm. But the cooler nights have finally cooled down the inside of the house. While I'm fixing the tortoise food in the a.m. I put the electric kitchen stove's oven on 'warm' and open the door. It cycles on and off and gives off just enough heat to keep me warm enough that I don't chop off a finger as I'm chopping up food! 'They' said we were going to finally have a frosty night, but so far the seven day forecast only shows it getting down into the low 40'sF. I know some of you are having weather much colder than that, but when there's no heat in the house, that's DARNED cold!!!!
It's around 20F here!
At least the sunrise was beautiful.

Very very scary. Be safe Kathy. Thinking of you guys.
Thank god for people who wanted to become fire fighters. It's an awful job and those doing it are very dedicated.

I am sure I saw some leg warmers and mittens in corner 7. Maybe you could get some to warm you up?

Very true.
Good news from daughter this evening. She just got confirmation that she has qualified for her Dormouse handling license. She can now work unsupervised 
She has her appraisal next week so the timing is perfect

I went to the post office and the guy sent me home to use a different box to save money. Hmmm, now to find something smaller.
I was going to use a flat rate box.
I did get stamps for my cards that I haven’t signed yet.
Ran errands too!
It’s super windy today!! I’ve cleaned the pool twice already!!

Congratulations to your daughter!!!
It's interesting how fate plays out. Yesterday a guy called wanting to adopt a water turtle. I explained that I don't take them anymore because it became to hard to find good homes for them. I was getting in too many.
Today I get a call from a gal who was driving home and picked up a turtle out of the street to keep if from being run over.
Needless to say, I called 'Larry' from yesterday and he's coming to get the turtle tomorrow!
It's a bit older than a juvenile, female RES turtle. This is pretty late in the year to be finding water turtles in the street. I'll bet someone tossed it out.

RES do get very large. Well done on the slick timing there!
I was thinking of a snail but thought he may not like Lola going too fastFor a large sulcata, a cat might do well. They have excellent balance. For a small tortoise, you might have to enlist a leopard gecko.
In between those sizes, I'd suggest a bearded dragon. Especially if you can get the beardie to wear an outfit for the occasion. Helmet and cape, anyone?
That is a terrible thing happening, over 200 still missing I hope they are safe somewhere.
My thoughts are with everyone who has been or maybe affected by the fires.
Welcome back!
