Yucky hot humid muggy overcast kind of day nere in Maryland. Leaves falling bone dry and rolling down the streets like tumble weeds. The only green is where perps continue to water their lawns. It’s the time of year when it should be cool evenings, cool days, scattered showers and grass planting time. But not yet... That said, snow falling out West! Many feet of it in Montana. Crazy weather.

Here is a picture of the mini lamancha goat that was given to us. She was wormed and had her hooves trimmed today.
She doesn't make much noise compared to other goats but has no problem expressing her annoyance through foot stomping and lots of dirty looks.IMG_20190929_081931626_HDR.jpeg

Are you actually putting to rest the card exchange? I could and wood send a card.

She's cute. My son has fainting goats. He feels really bad when they faint from just everyday stuff.

We also went to the local zoo today. Many of the animals they have are rescues or "defective" by big zoo standards. Like their Aldabras, who were seized from poor conditions. There were three of them. The largest seems to look healthy, another clearly had/has MBD and the third probably had a slight case because it couldn't lift itself properly in the back end.
The latter one was getting impatient for its breakfast and was hoping my phone was secretly a delicious snack!IMG_20190929_093815129_BURST003.jpegIMG_20190929_093759445_BURST003.jpegIMG_20190929_093804769_BURST003.jpeg

Card Exchange is happening. That’s why I posted this

@Yvonne G will add you to the PM and then you need to add your address to it.

It’s only TORTOISE, the not so secret Santa, that’s taking a rest.

I finally found a shop with cherry Danish and it was nice with drizzled iceing to boot. That's my favorite breakfast and I'm allowed cause I'm supposedly an adult. And it's doctors orders. I'm so glad to not see you!
Thank you Cathie. Been a bit busy lately unfortunately so have not had much chance to come on here.

Well there was a fire at a house and while we went in there we rescued all of the people that was inside, while I was in the burning house I did not hear a dog or if there was a dog or should I say dogs because there were two dogs left in the house, story short the dogs burned up and instead of the owner being happy because we saved her children's lives and hers she wants to get up in my face and curse me out because I didn't see the dogs that was in the house left in a cage.
I'm really thinking about switching careers probably go into law enforcement.
Oh dear. Shame, not nice for you or the owner. That is a sad story. But you still did a good job.

Good Monday Morning Everyone,

It has been a while since I have been on here. Glad to read that everybody is doing well and I see Bambam is back. Nice to not see you Brandy.
Ben good luck with your moc test and I am really happy for you, that you are enjoying your studies so much.
I have been really busy at work lately and exhausted once I get home. Weekends have been used to just chill and get some energy back before Monday starts again.

I have missed you guys, but hopefully I am back now.

The days are getting hotter over here and my torts are getting to enjoy much more outside time. There are quite a few eggs in the outside enclosure, however it remains to be seen if they are fertile or not, as last year I decided to separate Whitey away from Blue because he was giving her such a hard time. (excuse the pun!) In which case these eggs that she is laying may not be fertilized. Although I have read that they can keep the sperm inside them to fertilize an egg for a very long time. So we will we know by March, April, May next year if these eggs are fertile or not.

Enjoy your Monday's everybody. Chat again soon.
