I can't sleep I've tried . So I wonder the night all alone .

You need to get you and yours a Tokay Gecko. These guys tend to be active nocturnally and their fun as well. Personally, I believe Tokays are from another planet. From their ability to walk on panes of glass, to their "camouflage" which is a far cry from anything I've see here on earth. Heck Mike, they even have real developed vocal chords. I find a picture for you.

 

[Cowboy_Ken]

Here's two from the Internet Machine.
In the second, close-up picture, check out the mouthful of teeth. Heck , I had one that was my favorite. He was large enough that I fed it small, breedable mice. It would charge down the glass to grab the mouse, grab it, beat the the crap out of it and just swallow it like a snake would. One swallow. check out the teeth! Yes they bite!!

 

[Jacqui]

Yeah, Tokay geckos are well known for their temperments.

I so glad he come for visit and clean out those leaves for you. Did your Grandson also came? And....
I guess you are not going to TX with us when we go visit Kelly in next couple months or so??! !

I would really love to go, but it takes an awful lot of will power to psych myself up for a trip - well, that and $$$

No, the grandchild that lives with my son in Texas is a girl. And she didn't come.

I hope you do psych yourself up enough to make the journey!
In the end you would be so happy you did.

I know I would. And I'd love to see all of Kelly's turtles and tortoises. But it's just so hard for me to go anyplace. I feel terribly guilty asking my daughter to care for MY "hobby" when I'm gone. It's a pretty big job and she's got her own life to live. No one can talk me out of feeling like that. It's a given.

Today is supposed to be rainy. We got an awful lot of rain Friday...thunder and lightening, and huge rain drops. Our streets are flooded. I'm lucky to live up on a little hill, so flooding isn't in my vocabulary, thank goodness. Once the rain finally goes away and the sun starts shining daily, I'm going to get busy with the WeedEater and chop down all the vegetation that all the rain has wrought. One nice thing about all that "vegetation" though, if I don't have anything in the fridge for the tortoises all I have to do is grab my scissors or clippers and a bucket and the tortoises are happy. Today BO and SO got a big bunch of prickly lettuce, sow thistle and filaree each.

This morning when I woke up and looked at the clock on my cable box I kept telling myself, "It's ok. You can get up now. You've had a whole extra hour of sleep. See? the clock says so!" But my 'self' didn't believe me. Had a hard time getting out of bed this a.m. And now here it is almost lunch time, and I'm still sitting around doing nothing.

I don't really have any plans for the day. Just going to kick back and wallow in the fact that I have my house to myself once again! I love my son (and the rest of my family and extended family) but I really like to be alone.

Oh, I know what this is...you were jealous of Tom's new hobby with the hawk.

 

[MPRC]

Tastes like Freedom?

My boyfriend's truck is the same color green as your shirt and has the little metal realtree emblems on it. It's hard not to spot in a parking lot.

 

[MPRC]

Eeeee! I'm getting excited for my new little redfoot, her people are delivering her on Tuesday from Portland. I can't wait to meet her. It's going to be so difficult to keep everyone quarantined before I can try to have a group together outdoors. I hope they all get along.

 

[mike taylor]

No not at all . I don't remember him saying he was keeping Hawks .Check this guy out .

The time change is a perfectly acceptable excuse for a lack of productivity.

Since when did you need an excuse?

 

[Jacqui]

Good morning all! Hope your days are all starting good.
