COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

And Good Morning roomies. I’m currently in my hotel room drinking coffee. I have a “fine” view of Eastleigh Station from my window which is handy for getting home

I booked myself into TravelLodge (a cheap chain that doesn’t even have a restaurant) for the last couple of nights. I’ll wander up to daughter’s flat for breakfast shortly.

She’s still sleeping in her old house as she moves stuff over. She will be in the new flat by the end of the week and has to be out of the old one by the end of next week.

JoesDad reports no eggs in the nestbox this morning!

Not see you later

Travel safely.

Good mornooning, roommates!
Laundry day at my house. It was still foggy in the morning, and the sky is light gray—almost white. But nothing’s falling down from it, so it’s perfectly reputable weather. Wishing everyone a terrific Tuesday!

Good Morning Lena,

Good luck with the laundry.!!

I need to check it out thoroughly when I get home. Bluet-its don’t start incubating their eggs until they have laid the whole clutch.

The female plucks her breast feathers so she can get her body warmth to the eggs better.

JoesDad is saying there are many more feathers in the box and the eggs are tiny (around 15mm/0.6 inch). So I am wondering if there are eggs under all the new feathers in the box.

Yall know how my husband was redoing one wall and putting in some new plugs... Well we have discovered that our house is an electrical fire waiting to happen. I don't know how this house passed inspection!
So yeah my husband has to rewire most of the house, and install the proper size breakers

Oh, MY!!!! [emoji33]

I am home It’s warm and sunny here too. The lawn seems to have sprouted a foot in two days, so that’s tomorrow’s job sorted [emoji849]

Me, too.
I don’t worry about Adam- I “see” him in The Fossil Forum, and he’s putting a LOT of time and energy into his fossil work. Sort of an “all-or-nothing” kind of guy, sometimes. [emoji38]
But I do worry about John...[emoji51]

Due to extreme fire hazard risk, the power that is going to my dishwasher and my art room is turned off until fixed.
I haven't hand washed dishes in a year..

Think about how clean your hands are going to be. And your fingernails!!! I love how my hands look after washing dishes - then I put on my gardening gloves, go outside, and have dirty nails and rough hands once more!

Really? Hand washing usually makes my hands feel dry afterwards.

Maybe it's your dish soap. I use Costco's brand of environmentally friendly dish soap. I love that stuff. Just a little bit works great on cleaning dirty, greasy dishes, and my hands feel soft and wonderful afterwards.
