Morning all *waves* I got home from work to find out that all their lights and CHE were all off [FLUSHED FACE] Randy accidentally stepped on the cord and unplugged everything from the wall *face palm* so everyone gets a warm soak this warming

Morning. I've heard of alarms for such things but never seen one. After temp drops to say, 74° an audio alert sounds.

Me too. Fortunately, Shelly's enclosure only got down to 72 and the other enclosure got down to 74.

I like to dip cold, crisp, sweet apples into the Nutella. M-m-m...tasty! But I ended up tossing a jar about 3/4 full because I can't find decent apples here and don't really like it on anything else.

What does everyone have planned for their day? I'm awaiting a visit from Linz2491 (Lindsay) later this afternoon.

The Forum is very slow today. Guess I'll break off and go get something to eat. Has anyone tried McDonald's new bacon club burger? It looks yummy in the commercial.

Yesterday, I put off “Blue Monday" for “Blue Tuesday". Other words, I've a herd of laundry to do today. Yes it does itself, but I went to town yesterday, and each time I set out to do laundry, I realized I wanted to shower before town and didn't want to compete for the warm water. I did though make it to town, and make a huge taco salad for dinner last night. Other than that, the sun has broke out meaning indoor tortoises will be getting outside time today, further distracting me from doing what needs to be done.
The old, “What's our weird neighbor doing now?"
“Looks to be listening to Hank Sr. and moving rocks with his mind!"
(Just watching them wander and graze.)

I've got neighbors who bring their grand kids up for field trips. They have solid confirmation that I'm weird.


Did you see my outdoor enclosure picture?

I went out the front door this morning to take a bag of trash out and did a double take. My daughter was sitting outside in her car. I had no idea she was there and the sad thing was, I almost had put off even going outside with anything. Mean while, she had decided to not knock and bother the dogs, because since my truck was not out front it meant I was gone. She had already driven around the village looking for my truck and luckily had decided not to try going into the neighboring town to see if she could locate it. Her cell phone is MIA, so she had no way to reach me. Oh and my missing truck is hidden away in the local town at the repair shop. :D

So we had a nice lunch and chat, before she headed back home to pick her kitten up from the Vet from her spay/declawing. Made for a great day1!

Tortoise tracking device.

My daughter came up to surprise me for my birthday last year and that was the best. Fortunately, there were no close call misses though.
You're lucky.

Yes, technically we are a village with our less then 100 population.


Ash likes to just do those spur of the moment visits and normally because I tend to be home, we get lucky. :D After we ate, we went to WalMart and I had picked up a couple of buckets of cat litter, a couple boxes of spring greens and two or three other small things. I decided to go to the bathroom before we left. I came out to find she had nabbed my cart and already bought my things for me. She is a very sweet and generous kiddo.


Noel, how tall is that cactus?

The main one I think is 12 feet tall. It's as old as the house

In the event that y'all watch the news, I've never been east of the continental divide, let alone Georgia. And I would never watch baseball. Nough said.

Yes it is. I took that about 15 minutes ago. That's about half of our backyard

It's the cud chewing of the gum, that makes me unable to watch baseball. :(


Your sooooo lucky, you have hibiscus blooming! :)
