COLD DARK ROOM

[Cathie G]

Good mornooning all.

lUnlike @Mystic_Queen , the new lockdown has made little difference to life for us here. JoesDad and Daughter continue to work from home. Daughter needs to find a new flat, but that’s on hold until after lockdown.

I am continuing at the rescue on Mondays and Fridays. We aren’t training new volunteers any more, so I get to do more animal handling and less training. I did a trip to the Swan Sanctuary with a Grey Heron that had a broken leg. It’s quite a long trip, but they have better facilities than us for us with water birds.

It always cheers me up to see the animals you get to help.?

Hey, don't put my address on that list please.

That's ok but I still know how to send you one ?

 

[Cathie G]

Agree with Ellie May....that heat myth was really a myth.... cases here in the US just continued to climb and climb. More gatherings at beaches and campsites and activities. It spreads - hot or cold. We’re sadly going back into serious lock down mode again.....

Most of OH is level 3 and the county next to us (where a lot of people from here work) is close to level 4. I guess it's time to stalk up the toilet paper.?

 

[Cathie G]

Nope. Nah ah... I don't believe it for one second that you are dumb. You are just trying to get us to believe that for some reason. Has Adam given you a mission again that we don't know about... I ask as I peer around the corner to see if there are any agents lurking about.

?

 

[Cathie G]

Don't worry about it Linda, One of us could also have done it. Besides most of us are just using last years list with one or two more people we have requested specifically for their address as we would like to include them for our own evil agendas. Wink wink and an extra Wink for good luck. ??

I finally took down last year's cards from the exchange yesterday. And started doing this year's. Sorry, but Chefdenoel10, I have her procrastination beat ?

Just did that for my in-laws last week while we were in Ohio! On each every trip out, they laughed but I remember how it was in VA at the beginning of the year

 

[Maggie3fan]

Nobody’s address gets added to the list unless they do it themselves... except the Dark Lord and I have permission

Yeah, but you forget who my sister is...

 

[Chefdenoel10]

Can I send one to Y and she can mail to you? Please my card is so mushy this year!?

hey I want one too!!!

We had this two masted Ketch pass behind us as we rounded the bend and headed into our launch point. Nice looking wooden boat with wooden masts!

Remember: let's keep the 2020 card exchange PM clean of anything but addresses . No talking. If you want to suggest a person to add, do it here. Like this: @Chefdenoel10 do you want to be added?

 

[Cathie G]

Oh my garsh. I didn't get that senile yet.?

I have to say, this is one of my favorite pictures you've posted.?

Whatever... Yep even Joe heard about the shortage.?

 

[Ray--Opo]

It does at first. Then the age doesn't show. I'd rather know . Ok so I'm old and someone else is young. Really, I've met some young people here that I respect their opinions on animal care. It's inspiring to see a young person that involved. The same with the older people. It's just nice to see all the different ages of people that get drawn here for the love of torts ?

I agree @TechnoCheese for being a younger age is very knowledgeable about torts.
