COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

Told you!!!!!! ????????
I am so sorry to drag you into my world of spinning -points...
you should wander off to find the spotted leopard and leprechaun somewhere in here??? Maybe they can help you regain your points ....?

Oh no they won't. They more than likely will steal more points away from you. The snow leopard will want carrots which will cost you points and the Leprechaun will just steal them. So be careful.

 

[CarolM]

What a beautiful dog!!! Wow!!!
Glad to HEAR she can SEE again.
Bless her little heart

Don't bring her into the CDR as she will be upset due to her not being able to see again.

 

[CarolM]

I gave it to a neighbor that has kids.
I've been ripping out the shrubs and bushes around the house. But have no real plan at what I'm going to replace them with.
I've also done a lot of preventative maintenance on our vehicles.
Belts, hoses, gaskets.
All very boring.
Today is Sukis birthday. So I had that.

A very Happy Birthday Suki.

I decided to send gene testing for Mookie to find out what kind of a dog she is. I went to do her swab and it’s so embarrassing because she got really panicky about it and I ended up having to pick it up with my fingers. I sent it anyway and now I’m thinking it will come back saying it’s a Scandinavian American human instead of saying that it’s something like a pointer or a border collie. She really wasn’t into this stuff a swab in your mouth thing. She’s snoring next to me right now but she still terrified of everyone except me. If anybody has any great ideas about having a terrified dog get brave I’d love to hear them.
Here’s my cow/chicken/coward dog.

Oh shame. It is a huge compliment that she only likes you. Take it for what it is.?

 

[CarolM]

Well all caught up again. Booo. I was so enjoying all the back and forth banter. And as the Dark Lord likes to do he has left us in suspense again while we wait for the announcement of who came first and gets the gold medal.

We have rain again. So yayyyy my jojo tank is getting nicely filled. I need to order the white cement and paint today so that I can finish my garden projects over the weekend. As it is time that they all were completed. So I can start on the next lot of things.

I forgot to wish everybody Happy spring day yesterday. Although for you guys I need to wish you Happy Autumn. ?

Maybe Adam still gets the Happy spring day or are you also going into autumn?

I should have put some fertilizer down on my lawn yesterday so that the rain could wash it all in nicely. Oh well I will have to do it tonight and just water the garden some more.

Why is it that people always raise their prices for whatever the reason was but then never lower them once the reason has gone? For instance our water prices were raised and we were charged a new monthly fee for the drought. Now that the dams are full again and we are receiving rain for quite a while now. They have lifted the restrictions but haven't lowered the prices. So in essence you cannot afford to use as much water as you like and would still need to use water as if you are on restrictions. Unless.of course you are rich and can afford the water bill. It is so annoying. Even during this crisis people are raising prices and I feel so sorry for those people who have lost their jobs. As it is now even harder for them to afford the things that they need.

Well that is my complaint over for the day. I hope everyone has an awesome day.

Lol ! That’s funny about the dna.. I’ll be anxious to hear results.
RIGSY is like that! She’s scared of A LOT! But not me;-) I think they just learn after being shown ( again and again and again) When it’s just me and her time, she’s really out going and-she engages other dogs and things in play more every day.

Good morning All!

 

[CarolM]

Top of the mornin to ya!!

 

[Maro2Bear]

Good morning All!

Good Morning! Yucky humid wet dark overcast start to our morning. But, the HUMMINGBIRDS are so active! At least 5 or 6 dining on our porch. With shortening daylight now, ive heard that the hummers are now slowly migrating south. We might be seeing so many here now that were in up state NY or Canada during Summer. Now, here stopping by for nectar & hanging about until it cools off.

And Just because I can:

 

[Golden Greek Tortoise 567]

By your reasoning that should have read as: When we want to write he, it comes up with she. .... Just saying. ??

Maybe that’s why I lost points, ?

 

[Blackdog1714]

Maybe that’s why I lost points, ?

Yeah correcting the moderator always goes over well! ??

 

[Golden Greek Tortoise 567]

Yeah correcting the moderator always goes over well! ??

Oh I didn’t plan to correct him, I’ll just secretly steal someone’s metal, that’s a much safer way. Just kidding, you both deserve those. ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Good mornynoon, Roomates!
Today is World Coconut Day.
Hmmm.
No coconuts, I've eaten all the coco coir and only have Tidgy's baked bean substrate left.
What to do?
