I never used to think of Jordan having snow before I heard of your experiences Gillian. It looks more like the UK in our 'old' winters - global warming has changed all that though. We could still have snow but nothing is guaranteed now.

Good morning/afternoon all.
We heavy rain again today with short respites in between the downpours. I've not been to look at the river yet but I should imagine it's still very high, with all the rain and water running off the sides off the valleys.
Lola has been out and about, eaten and has had a good soak so it's been quite a busy day for him! I should think he'll be ready for a good rest soon.
I hope you all have a peaceful Sunday.

Thanks Lyn. Am trying to keep warm and dry, though I'm having difficulty, a lot of difficulty.
No , no snow yet. But it's expected any moment from December to March. Imagine, I heard that it snowed in April, here, decades ago. Incredible.
One thing that shocked me a couple of days ago was: snow in Kuwait, where temperature exceeds 50 degrees C in Summer! Yep, global warming.I never used to think of Jordan having snow before I heard of your experiences Gillian.

Mr Fox late for his chicken n gravy dinner.
Nice snowman!
Wow! Your camera takes great pictures!!
I don't think so. My type is from a microorganism. Still probably the same kind of diet. They couldn't or wouldn't tell me what germy little bug.it is. I asked.
. At least I have a diagnosis finally and know exactly what I'm fighting. Echinacea is helping again. 
I only started Friday. Each day is getting better so far. I can't wait to get my full energy back.
It was snowy and very cold the day I received Sapphire my little Russian. That was in the last part of May about 15 years ago. Now adays, I can put him in his outdoor enclosure in May.
Here's my TMI for the day....
Anyone else get depressed for like 2-3 days bad? I figure that no more sleep then 2 or 3 hours together for so long led to the migraines non-stop for a week, attributed to it. Of course getting sick really blew me away last week and prob was part of it.
It doesn't happen often but every once in a while, I lose the "fight for sanity" temporarily against chronic pain. Those that deal with it, know what I mean. Kerry left Sat eve to pick up her son from BWI after she took me up to get my emission self-test done that she had to do for me. Just felt incapable to accomplishing anything other than the "must-do's". We never got round to the phone stuff as my phone wasn't compatible with the service I had selected and I just didn't have it in me to shop more.
The thing is, I generally don't get that way but once every couple of years according to Kerry. I take no daily meds for anything. They give me an inhaler for the breathing issues but I'm a bit remiss in using it. I forget all the time.
I guess coming in here this morning was good as I feel better than I have in 3 days.
I figure that EVERYONE had a better weekend!! LOL

I love that picture. What kinda camera is that
Camera I’m using is this one here. It’s nice ‘cause it has a small solar panel that charges the built-in lithium battery pack. You also add in 4 AA batteries as back-up.

I can't say that I don't get depressed with the health problems. And migraine tendencies is one of the places that covid will attack because it's a weak spot. Headache is one of the symptoms. I figure I've always had the colitis issue but covid made it real bad. I also will forget to take medicine when I'm really sick if I don't force myself to remember. One thing I do is make myself keep a written log and make my phone bug me with crazy alarms like a rooster crowing. When you're sick is not the time to forget to take regular medications especially with covid. It attacks your weakest spots. Now all that preacher teach thyself stuff is said. The "depression" from being unable to be as active is horrible and really hard to fight. It hits at 3:00 in the morning and tries to keep me up with no sleep. The only thing I've been able to use to fight it is to replace the bad thoughts with good thoughts and thankfulness and refuse to face it. Yep I'm like an ostrich burying my head in the sand. And YES this forum has been a Godsend to me also. Every day that I can get on here makes my day better.
Does it have to have a subscription? That's one of the things I didn't like about the spy point. And it would take hundreds of pictures I didn't even want. I like controlling that with my phone when I want to. I would like one that I can lock to something also and trail cams usually enable you to do that. Yours sure takes a beautiful picture. And the price is pretty good.Camera I’m using is this one here. It’s nice ‘cause it has a small solar panel that charges the built-in lithium battery pack. You also add in 4 AA batteries as back-up.

That's a nice camera for the money Mark....feature rich and takes great pics! Look at the link...did you photoshop the fox into your pic? LOL
I knew I wouldn't find myself alone,.....most choose wisely not to share too much but I no longer have reasons not to chat about it. Well I certainly wouldn't argue with you that covid magnifies migraine! It just sucks sometimes.....not the end of the world if you are prepared for it. The written log is a great idea a lot of folks do that with meds. I would too because I'd surely forget!
You know who is unflappable? Matilda my turtle....she's cool no matter what! She's currently hunting in her home behind me.

I did find good pictures today of that newest woodpecker but so far I've not been able to get my own picture 
. It is a common Red bellied but it's not common to me. I've not been able to identify the other one completely.My bird feeder is paying off because it's always stocked with woodpecker suet and seed blocks. I believe I've gotten 4 of the 7 types in Ohio visiting it and the Crab Apple tree. The chicaddees are still visiting also. Life's good. Lots of birds to watch.

Nope, no photoshopping here. Camera sits about 10 ft from where that fox was eating his chicken dinner. That’s actually a a screenshot from the 20 second video that i have set. 51 20 second videos & a few good shots captured.
Ps - no subscription or paid service.
I think "TMI" is what this thread is all about. We're all friends here, and that means we're interested in what you have to share.
And along those lines, I think depression expresses differently with me. I'm thinking the reason for my recent 'laziness' is because I must be depressed. My house is a dirty mess. The yard needs so much work and I just don't want to do it. But you mentioning your Sunjoe chain saw made me order one from Amazon, so if I ever DO get any energy back, I've got a new, light weight chain saw to try out!
My house and yard is the same. Dang it. Every where I look is something I need to do. That's what is so depressing maybe it should be called overwhelmed
I've had no energy to do anything but my animals. And I have to pace myself to do them. They keep me trying though. Once in a while, I'll get so sick of seeing a chore, I talk myself into doing just one small part of it. And if I don't want to do more I don't have to. That's how I fool myself 
into moving a little bit. Sometimes I'm able to do more then I thought I could. Sometimes not. Looks to me like you haven't given up hope. Wonder if I could lift a chainsaw 
Way back in the day, my mom was turning 65 and I asked her what she wanted for her birthday. My folks lived on 2 acres, too large a home for them but my dad loved his big garden....anyway, mom said she wanted an electric chainsaw. I laughed and she said that now that she was older the electric would be lighter and easier for her RA. It was a stretch for me & Peg but we bought her one. "When a 65 woman asks for a chainsaw, you buy her one" was justification enough. Funny how @65 now, I too appreciate it! Careful w/ the Sunjoe Y, the seal for the oil res doesn't seal well and it glopped up my stuff under it in my truck. I just oil it by hand every 6"-or so of diameter cut. Chain is still sharp!
I fell asleep at 7 and woke at 10, likely up for the night. Sucks but no headaches so there's that!
Boy I can identify w/ the self-fulfilling downward spiral caused by my own lack of action. I don't sugarcoat it......We sit around watching, seeing that it's time to vac but not doing it, then it needs to be dusted and vac, yet we don't, then there's a mess in the kitchen, still needs dusting and vac.......yeah, that's too easy a trip for me so I have to stay on top of it but it is a major cause, as we all know already. Once it's all done, it feel so much better but sometimes it's tough, really tough.
