COLD DARK ROOM

You mean the brexit is not happening after all?

Unless our MPs agree to something we leave on April 12 without a deal and that’s the only thing they have agreed on.

(It was March 29, but the EU took pity on us)

Our MPs only seem to be working to their own personal agendas rather than in the best interests of the country at the moment

Still a good day’s drive tomorrow

Do you know what this is? Absolutely massive circles... View attachment 268358View attachment 268359View attachment 268360View attachment 268361

Irrigation. Fields being watered by a central water cannon that slowly turns in a circle. It’s a pretty common view through a plane window.

~ First i am aware if this, it was a beautiful day down in SW Florida.

Welcome to the CDR Greg . Glad to hear it was OK

 

[JoesMum]

Good mornooning all!

My Moderator forum is ominously quiet... actually I think both sides have decided to agree our politics is a mess and a ceasefire exists. Hopefully it will continue


I have yoga this morning so I had better go eat my breakfast.

Have a good day all

Charity shops are great. If you but some wax pens you could decorate those eggs for Easter - I'm sure your daughter would love that!

Thank you for the idea, Lyn! My mom would love it too even more that way It's all Arts & Crafts movement in our house anyway

 

[Kristoff]

It is! On a CDR postcard!

I’d expect to see it in a travel supplement advertising romantic holidays (not that I look at romantic getaways! [emoji1])

Mark should start a postcard business alongside his woodcarving.

I've been sitting here all afternoon wondering if I have the start of COPD because it feels like I' m not getting enough oxygen. I thought back over my day to see what was different about this day and remembered that I cleaned out Dudley's (110lb sulata) shed today.

Cleaning out the shed means sweeping up about two weeks of dried and dusty tortoise poop. The shed is about 10x10x6 with a very small/narrow people door for ventilation.

So I guess breathing all that poop dust must've coated my lungs (or maybe I'm too impressionable). At any ate, I went onto Amazon and ordered a package of medical face masks.

Good idea, Yvonne! When you need a hand with all that tort poop, let me know. Daughter and I would love a summer camp over at your place.

How is your boy today and has Toretto made it up the ramp by himself today ?(or is it too early for his bedtime?)

He has felt good but the eye looks rough and there’s still lots of snot from the allergy attack. I imagine we will be home again today. It’s not quite 3am here but the dogs woke me up for some reason... Toretto regressed some from night before. I had to put him a mostly in before he quit trying to turn around [emoji35]

 

[Kristoff]

Only if you are near the river mouth!!

Oh, let's not get carried away with all these pun opportunities!

 

[EllieMay]

I am sorry to hear that your son is sick, Heather. Hopefully the meds will help. All luck and best wishes from me to him.

Thanks Sabine... He’s pretty resilient . How have you been? What’s been keeping you away so much? Everything ok? How are Ma & Mo & the sullies, and the rescue dog?

 

[Kristoff]

I was only in for 2 nights and didn't sleep a wink until I was under the anaesthetic.

The night after my C-section... One of the reasons daughter will, in all likelihood, be my only child.

 

[EllieMay]

Hi Lyn. Yes they do, but I have to work right now. Speak more tomorrow.

What do you do for work?

 

[EllieMay]

Still a good day’s drive tomorrow

Your bound to see something cool along the way [emoji6]

Good afternoon! I don’t know if it counts for much, but I’m here [emoji23]... I took my son to the pediatrician this morning and apparently he suffered a severe allergy attack yesterday which also caused a fever blister In his eye... He was very sickly from birth to 3 yrs old and we dealt with all kinds of weird Illnesses.. when he turned 3, it was like a miraculous turning point and everything just went away. He hasn’t been on any meds (compared to 3 different ones per day) for 2 years now. I’m not sure what happened but we left with 5 different meds a day to get through. We can stop 2 when he’s better but the other 3 will have to be continued for at least 6
Months [emoji35]... the good news, he has felt great today. His specialist had provided meds to keep on hand in the case of the fever blister in the eye and I caught that early and started it last night. It’s very painful and used to happen to him every time he got any other kind of illness. He’s a trooper and doesn’t complain about much . Guess we will be hangin at home for another day or two though

I know something about having a kid on long-term meds. This was the first winter in the past three three we didn't have to use any of those (she's turning 7 in June). Hope Jayden is better real soon!

@AZtortMom

I’m hoping your vision gets singled out soon. Can’t imagine how frustrating that must be! Hugs [emoji847]

 

[Kristoff]

I am still here. Just trying to catch up. Had a couple busy weeks. New tort is settling in good and I will soon post picks of all the babies.

Looking forward to it!

Haha... I thought that for 11years and then God had a different idea [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

 

[Kristoff]

There’s a mouse or two in my house!! I’ve never had one!

Eek!

 

[Kristoff]

I think it’s a small rat!!
I saw him underneath the fridge!! I have traps there!!
I’m not gonna be able to sleep.

I open the garage door hoping he’ll run out! It about 7ft away.

I have a lame cat!!!

I'd feel rattled too...
