COLD DARK ROOM

[Pastel Tortie]

By “the heat is out” do you mean there’s no sunshine today in Florida? [emoji23]

@Moozillion knows all about high tea that side of the Atlantic. You two should arrange a meeting

Oh, there's plenty of sunshine outside... and blue sky, too. Just not much warmth to go with it. Overnight temperatures may drop down just below freezing tonight.

Can you post pics of the Micro turts too ? Please.

I'm glad you enjoy! Pinstripe hasn't been feeling all that photogenic lately, but this one is PINSTRIPE from several weeks ago.


And this one is BOLD from the same time frame.


Pinstripe shows as much growth between the scutes NOW as Bold did THEN. Bold has grown much more since then... And Bold MAY be turning blond on me! Apparently, there is blond phase of three-striped mud turtles, and Bold has me wondering.

Don`t catch a cold. Use several heat bulbs for tortoises around you to stay warm.

Right now I'm wishing for a CHE or radiant heat panel! I may have to get a small space heater to put under my desk to keep my feet warm.

Oh yes, I enjoy your pics of micro turtles very much ! Why are tiny turtles and tortoises are so darned cute ??? But they are.

I couldn't decide between herbal tea and regular caffeinated tea, so I opted for a tall cup of "somewhat-caffeinated Irish breakfast peppermint tea." Not bad, actually.

Some of you might find my cup appropriate...

I think it fits ! You are a crazy cat lady like I am.

I checked on the mud turtle hatchlings this morning, and Bold was bright-eyed and begging. He ducked back into his hide when he saw me getting ready to take his picture. Then he thought about it for maybe a second and came right back out.

Me: What changed your mind?
Bold: WILL WORK FOR FOOD.
Me: Okay... I can live with that... Smile for the camera...
Bold: ...

Don't worry, I paid well.

LOVE IT!!!!!!! [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

Someone has been taking lessons from @Moozillion ’s Jacques

Hahaha!!!

 

[Moozillion]

Maybe Bold overheard me talking about Jacques' page in the TFO calendar... I think Bold has aspirations... and a role model!

@Moozillion Bea, I can only imagine what I'm in for this year...

Seriously though, if Bold continues to put on size at this rate, he may be big enough in a few months to fill out a high resolution photo.

I think the mud turtles have a LOT of personality!!!! [emoji2][emoji173]️

 

[Moozillion]

Interesting to learn who snapped that picture and how.

I saw that! [emoji6]

Well she spent my sister and went through her approval LOL she still has to meet with my mom and dad. And hopefully we can do that this coming weekend. She can be a little shy so having to ease her into meeting people lol but I've met her mom which she lives with her mom currently. And I have met her older brother. we was supposed to meet with her best friend / cousin last weekend but unfortunately the weather made what we was going to do in possible.

My now husband proposed to me after being together for less than 2months. Had a 4 month engagement only because I wanted to get married in the spring. Been together almost 10years. When you know- YOU KNOW. Congrats

Don't you just love it, when you're making hot tea, and then you miss a critical step like heating up the water?

Yep, it's that kind of day.

Yep, you find out real quick, it’s not hot, when the tea does not steep!

I wish you much fun on your vacation !
But please stay near the pool so that the Zombies don`t get you. Beware of waitresses that make you naked by flirting with you when you pay your bill and don`t fear nude sunbathers that eat waffles.
Have fun my friend !

On my last vacation these signs in front of the hotel said:

In the hotel bar I found this sign. Makes sense !

More sense than this sign at the hotel pool:

In a park I found this helpful sign. Good that I am a woman !

Found a nice place to build a house but then I read this sign:

It got down to 18F here last night. Clunker's wagon held its temps nicely though but his breakfast was late due to all the weeds being frozen.
