Since day 8 of the Advent Calendar is the Northern Lights, I thought I'd post this pic of Robin standing on a frozen lake with the Northern Lights all around her! This was back in January.

HI rues... That's an awesome pic of Robin and the Northern Lights!!  How cool that you got to watch an eagle and some hawks!  I watched a couple of hawks "fighting" in the air over my house yesterday.  They were very vocal about it!  lol  Sorry to hear Robin has to stay away from you.  Better safe than sorry.  My daughter dropped off my cake mixes tonight on her way home, but stayed in the car while I dug through her groceries to find them.  Then we talked through the open passenger side window, until she wanted to show me her new jeans.  She said I had to make sure I was 6 feet away.  Chili night for me!  No Chili-O in my store yet, so using McCormicks.  The cats are so funny about noises!  Wilson follows you??  Handsome growls at the vacuum, then heads for the top of the fridge and Lily heads under my bed and stays there for hours.  lol

We arrived home last night surprised at how a person can feel after surgery. This afternoon, Donna brought me to the WRI where I was happy to see your support on Facebook!

Feeling hampered and worn out, I got a boost with the appearance of the first mink this winter! It was Stripe from last year, same as ever. She was eager for me to crank open the window by my desk so she could make 7 quick trips, caching 7 slices of bologna?almost a half pound for a mink that weighs maybe 2-3 pounds.

It was great to see her after beginning to worry. Maybe the others will come back, too. The pictures show Stripe?s white chin with its dark stripes as she reacted to Donna holding a piece of bologna.

Heading home. Hoping to regain energy soon.

Thank you for all you do.

Good morning everyone-  Today is supposed to be really nice- 50's here. I'm going to take  advantage of it and do my grocery shopping.

rues- that photo of the northern lights and Robin is so beautiful. Our weather person just said that we may be able to see the lights here tonight since it will be clear. I hope i remember. So glad it gets dark early.  Your trip with your sis sounded like fun- i bet a couple of us jewelies would have fit in the back seat!! Yes Robin- better safe than sorry. I was thinking the other day that if my hubby would have told me when he started feeling bad (Staurday night) that maybe i would have slept in the guest room that night and not gotten ykw.  Well- at least it's done and i have antibodies now. Still i will be vigilant and wear mask and stay away from people.

ra- so glad your daughter is being careful too; chili sounds good.

cal- safe travels today and hope sister does well. 
So glad Dr. Rogers is "home" and so is stripe.
Have a great day jewelies!

Good to hear you are well enough to go shopping Lupine.  Is hubby normal too?

Good luck to sis and Cal.  I am not sure what to hope for in this case, but will pray God's will be done, and all are safe.

Robin's pic is spectacular.  She is so adventuresome.  Thanks for sharing.  I would like to be there too.  I think.

Ra and Rues thanks for posting and thanks for being my friend.

Yay for Jewlies.

God bless all in need.

Hi cal... We've been waiting to hear how things went today with Polly.  Sorry she didn't get her license, but not really.  She doesn't need to be driving and I'm sure she'll get used to it, probably already is.  I'm glad you're back home.  I bet you're pooped.

I heard on the news tonight that the Aurora Borealis might be able to be seen by the USA tomorrow night.  Probably not here... the mountains will get in the way, but maybe all of you guys can see it.  If I was on top of the mountains, I could maybe see it.  Oh, well...  Hope you Jewelies can.

Have a good evening everyone!

You are a good sister Cal.  You did all you could.  What will be will be, but I feel relieved to hear no more driving.  I even feel a little safer just sitting in my office here, and will soon sleep better knowing you will not be riding around with  your sis at the wheel.  Sorry too that we are all getting into times that we cannot do all we want and are used to doing.  Like no more big dogs that you love so much.  GN ev1 cul God Bless

Good morning everyone- oh cal- you did all you could-i agree with johoward. It was definitely time for sister to stop driving. Whatever her future holds at least this way she will have a safer future not only for her but others on the road.

We have one more day before we get snow!!!!! Yay- snow!!!!!  I ordered cat food from my vet- they had to order it and it will be in today so we'll be set.   The only bad thing about the snow is that on Saturday afternoon we're supposed to do a drive by after wedding kind of thing. This is my Duke's human sister getting married. Would like to do this- we may have to put jimmy in 4-wheel drive to get to the church. It's just about 3 miles from here on all gravel roads. We'll see. Haven't seen any guesses on accumulations yet.

Have a great day jewelies!
