Hi Jewelies! It's been a nice sunny day in the low 60's. Seems to be warmer outside than it is inside! There's a chill in the house even though the furnace says its 70!  Crow and I went and had bloodwork yesterday. We both have doctor appts this week. Mine is tomorrow and his is on Friday. WVU medical has just about bought every medical office in this area. Now we can get all our med records on line. A couple hours after we had bloodwork done the results were already on our individual online accounts. I have feeling my dr will be putting me back on statins because my cholesterol levels were higher than they were last year.  Crow didn't look at his. Said he'd let the dr tell him.

Cal, so sorry that you weren't given the opportunity to buy Pete. That sucks. I'm hoping, too, that Pete went to a good home. Did you and Missy have a good lunch? Our Walmart is all decked out in Christmas now. Does your store have that huge Christmas tree in the middle of the front entrance? I wonder how long it will be before someone knocks that tree over! Monday our Walmart had all their fall fake flowers marked down to a quarter! So I spent a dollar on next year's fall decorations for mom and dad's graves! Told my sis to please help me to remember next year that I already have the flowers!

Lupe, I couldn't work at the animal shelter! It would be too much stress for me, too! I would want to adopt all of them! I don't feed the birds in the summer. But I always have the bird bath filled with clean water. In the winter they get water from the top of the pool cover. Bet you had a nice lunch!

Jo, sounds like you and the family had a very nice visit with Bruce! Hoping Joan had a good day!

Hi Jewelies!  Nice here today.

cal... I'm so sad to hear about Jim's poor mom.  She has been through so much.  I hope she pulls out of this...  You got snow coming?  Weather map looks yucky out your way. Who does Kansas State play this weekend?  Clemson is off this week.

rues... I could never work at a shelter or a vet.  I've only been inside a shelter a couple of times and that was just inside the front door to get some paperwork.  I'd want to take every cat in the place home.  Our medical records are all online here, too.   You can ask questions and stuff, too... I like that.  You don't have to go in with the sickies when you're not really sick.

lupine... Did you get to fill up your fridge today?  Mine is always empty!  lol

Johoward...So nice that you and Joan and Bruce's girls had a good visit!  So glad he's closer to you now, so you can visit more often.

Have a good evening, Jewelies! 

[johoward]

Please God bless Jim and his mom.  Bring them the  comfort that only you can provide.

Good morning everyone- cal- sending positive thoughts to you and Jim; such a difficult tine for Jim and his Mom and Dad.

The wind is really howling here but I think the rain is over- no snow forecast here. More leaves are finally falling- we can't difgure out why it is taking so long for the maple leaves to come down. Hubby cut down a huge ash tree by our mower shed and he's been cutting and splitting it.  The log splitter we got a fewyears ago is so nice- really works well.

ra- the fridge is full - and there is some stuff in the freezer. We had a good lunch at the Riverbend in Keosauqua. I had a huge bacon cheeseburger with ham and an egg on top. Got my protein for the day. I ate the whole thing- really wanted fries because theirs are so good. But I knew that would be too much.  Got back at 2 PM- a full day of fun. We were so surprised that the Dutchmen's wasn't busy. When we were ready to check out there was no line at all.!!! In all the years we've gone there that had never happened. Yay!! Mainly because I was really hungry and the line forms right by the bulk candy items- way too tempting for me.

Time for breakfast- have a great day jewelies!

hi lupe jim left went by to see his mom before ford and he emailed me this..

Mom is alert this morning bye no way well but knows who she is and that she is in the hospital maybe the fluids restarted her kidneys and liver. It could also be the I?m good right before she passes we have bought seen that before.

i do know that better then we are gone stuff but i hope not here not this time. she is alert! griz barking looking for me

[johoward]

Bruce has peacefully passed away today.  His two girls saw him just in time last night.  They left for home this morning, and Bruce passed over this afternoon just as joan and i were dressing to meet him for a Thanksgiving Party at the rest home.
 We kissed him goodbye, and cleaned out his room.  Then skipped the party, and went to Perkins with Debbie instead.  I will make arrangements tommorrow, but Joan needs some help going to bed now.  GN and God bless. Thanks for your prayers.

Dear Shaddow,



Hi, everyone.  I am still here and feeling good.  I think I am also thinking more clearly and hoping things stay that way.

Good thoughts flow to each of you.

Yesterday, Ted explored his enclosure, ate some snow and grass and then as the following 3:08 minute video shows, settled into his straw and arranged it to his liking as the first big snow Driveway with 10" of snow
Driveway with 10" of snow
(10 inches measured at the WRI) began to fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TKlDKOyIA8. I don?t know what I was thinking last evening when I wrote that I was looking forward to the snow. As it turned out, it meant shoveling!

Stripe the Mink emerged from under the front deck for visits at 10:30 AM and 2:30 PM today for a total of 6 dashes up and down the steps to cache bologna.

For the Bear Center cookbook, we still need 108 recipes. The team is especially anxious to get recipes for bread and rolls, vegetarian/vegan items, gluten-free items, appetizers, and your favorite recipes.

Good morning everyone- johoward- you have my sympathy on the passing of your brother; so wonderful that you had time with him and that his passing was peaceful. I'll be thinking of you in the hard days to come.

jp- so good to see you; ty for the cozy kitchen and sweet shadow- she looks like she has a thousand tales to tell. I so wish I could speak bear.

cal- what a bummer- those dogs on your property; tim just is not a good neighbor. It is not pleasant to not be able to go out on your own land.
I hope jim's mom is doing better. Your 2 recipes sound good- you should submit them- 4 layer chocolate cake- yum!

Yesterday I went to the mall- wanted to go to the bookstore to pick up a new journal and a couple of books I read about on line. Well- I struck out big time. Then I went to GNC to find as mineral supplement I read about on line. No go there either. I now know why people get stuff on line. The day was not a total loss since I met a friend at Olive Garden for lunch- Soup and salad and iced tea. Yummy food and good conversation.

Have a great day jewelies!

hi lupe i went and got my recipe to share with the bears. jim showed me a picture of his mom yesterday she was sitting up in a chair smiling at me with lots of blankets around her she is cold there at home she has it at 78. the doctors could not believe how well she is really. she has pneumonia and into like sepsis but the ivs with antibiotics kicked in but they told his dad that it most likely will come back when they do not know all this comes with the cancer and stuff but could be 6 month  years who knows. jims dad said she is coming back home no more nursing homes he will get a hospital bed set up in the living room wow his dad so picky with everything but not anymore this with annie has knocked that out of him. he is grateful to have her. so no more rehab at the old folks home just home for her. jim will get some hog panels and we will take the gator up there and fix the fence should not be hard to find tims dog is really big and i seen coyotees going thru the fence up there leaving tims heading back over here probably not anymore now that tim has those two dogs. coyotees probably looking for a chicken dinner. tims is the worse lupe esp for me a huge animal lover. i did see that donkey so they kept it joe wrong there but no pete. jim said take your pistol shoot the dog well jim you know i cant do that i could shoot tim but not the dog. so getting ready to put in my recipe that four layer cake mom davis she made that for on my birthday or anytime i wanted one. sometimes she used a yellow cake mix made that frosting which is like the cream filling in a hostess cupcake and it was a twinke cake not a hostess cake picture of last one i made for sisters birthday

HI Jewelies!  I'm up early...  One of those mornings, I guess.

Johoward... I'm so sorry to hear of your brother's passing, but glad he was able to spend time with his daughters and you had been able to visit regularly.

JP... A treat to see you this morning and hear you're doing well.

cal... I just don't have words for your POS neighbor.  It's not right that you have to worry about someone else's animals on your own land.  I got to watch Houston play last night and win, love watching the old Clemson players!  Nice looking cake!  Glad Jim's mom is doing better.  If she goes home, can his dad take care of her?

lupine... I do almost all my shopping online now, except groceries and every day Walmart stuff.  So much easier than hunting around for what you want.  Glad you had a nice lunch with a friend!

Have a good day, Jewelies!  Hi to all!
