This is the 3rd time Opo has escaped. Rose accidentally didn't latch the gate. She was so upset with herself. When the wind blows in the right direction. The spring on the gate isn't strong enough to close. I told her it wasn't her fault. I think I will put a contact alarm on the gate. They make some that aren't real loud to bother the neighbors.
Hope Jess does well at therapy.
Thanks, Rose was real upset. While looking for Opo, I momentarily got anger at Rose, but played it all the way thru my head and quickly forgave her. There were a ton of different thoughts going thru my head. While riding around in my chair looking for Opo.
They really got a kick out of Opo coming towards me when I called his name. Opo was right on the edge of going into the heavy undergrowth. They were older men and maybe thought they couldn't pick him up. I kept telling them he doesn't bite. When Rose showed up,she picked him right up. This little 110 lb woman put him right in the van. Maybe they had second thoughts of they should have helped.
But like you said Yvonne alls well that ends well.
No problem, ???? I used one of the guys phone to call Rose. I called him today, to ask him to send me the pic he took of Opo. He said he would but so far I haven't received.
That's cool!

I don't have much time to read yet. But thought I would share this all of the bird lovers in here. Merry Christmas Eve everyone. ??
I saw that on Twitter. Some of the responses are hilarious. I once ordered a single piece of root ginger and 1kg of the stuff was delivered! ?
Aldi is a German grocery store that is went global. They’re all over the world
Wonderful! That looks like a classic Christmas with the train around the base.
Love the tortoises/ turtles.
Santa loves White Snake. I saw him playing air guitar to..... here I go again!???
Yum!
Beautiful!
No it didn't sound mean at all. I thought it was great Opo turned around and started coming towards me. The 2 men were amazed. I am glad Opo turned around because he was starting to enter the undergrowth and Rose would have had a hard time getting him.
Well I went to open the garage door last night and it would only raise a few inches. For me to get in the garage, I need to go out the front door and enter the garage from outside. My ramp for the door from the house into the garage is portable but takes up to much room because it is 8' long. Anyways came back in the house,looked at the garage door and noticed one of the tension springs were broken. I am still hell bent to get on a ladder and replace the springs. I have done many of them. It can be dangerous because there ends up being a lot of tension on the springs. As of last night Rose was a hard NO! I might not win this one. ?
See the spring to the right is broken in half.
I’m with Rose! Behave!
It's just so difficult for me. I used to fix everything. If I lock my prosthetic leg so the knee doesn't bend and have the ladder leaning forward. All my weight will be forward and I wouldn't lose my balance and fall backwards. But I did find a local company that on their website. They are still advertising a spring special. Both springs and new bearings for 280 dollars.
I don't know if spring special means the spring season or the spring itself. They were closed last night. I will call today but it's not so much spending money as it is accomplishing something myself. I used to pride myself being able to fix things.
Lidl as well. We have both stores here within a mile or so of our house. We do a lot of our shopping at Lidl.
Lidl is German as well. Looks like they are doing well here in the US
➡️ We’re proud of our humble beginnings. In 1973, the first modern Lidl store opened in Ludwigshafen, Germany. With only three employees and about 500 products, this small store became the foundation of Lidl’s far-reaching expansion. During the 1990s, we began opening stores outside of Germany and within a few years, we had stores all across Europe.
➡️ We now operate around 11,200 stores and are active in 32 countries, employing more than 310,000 people globally. Our mission is to offer customers the highest quality fresh produce, meat, baked goods and household products at the lowest possible prices.
➡️ In June 2015, we established our U.S. headquarters in Arlington, Virginia. Today we sell our award-winning products in more than 100 stores in nine states across the East Coast.
