6:19  I would go to that church.
Finally home from blood test.  Totally icy this morning.  Had a nice breakfast at Hazels.  Saw some friends from long ago.  They looked older but not much different,  they recognized me and my cane.  One was a long distance runner who liked to run the Grand Canyon trails.  He said he no longer does that, but still runs some.  The other, like me, had a new knee put in last November.  He walks some. 
House is cold need to reset thermostat now.  So cul EV1 GB

Bright Sat. morning here. 27° at 10:53.  Nothing on agenda.  Always like this in February.
Blood testing was easy, as usual.  Then shopping at Drugmart and at Walmart.  Then lots of computer time.  Mostly animal cams and solitaire.  Today too I think.  May take a ride around the county just for fun later.
For now I will go make some more coffee.  CUL EV1 GB

got to church 3:34 ukran pushing back biden others trying to get ukran pres to leave he says i need more military equip not a ride he refuses to leave his country his people what a brave man where are you putin gb ukran

[neva]

  Church yard ...   27:21            63°   (3:28 pm)  Sunny and breezy.

I hope you both are having a good day ... and anyone else looking in, as well.

I think you and I are thinking a lot of the same thoughts as we watch the news, Cal.  Another thing that I wonder about is how all those Russian Billionaires are feeling about what is happening to their money and lives due to their Boss's behavior?  That can't be going over too good.  There's lots of things I am wondering about.  I think of those families huddled with their kids in a basement, or subway - no resources and someone is saying, well in a month there should be results from the sanctions that we've put in place.  How do they make it through a month, or more?  There's got to be a better way.  And these people were so trusting, they didn't really believe it could happen.  They should have guessed that it could after what he had done in several other areas over there.    I'm sorry, should not go on about this really.  Where is a good seal team when you need one?

Pretty Girl is Back, Hank the Tank has a Reprieve - UPDATE February 26, 2022

Pretty Girl was here on the second floor deck the last two nights leaving tracks and taking food from her usual place, but I’ve yet to see her. I believe it is her and that she is hanging out with another fox at a place a half mile away as reported. I feel relieved, but it would make the world right if she would let me see her and have her say “It’s me” by taking food from my hand.

The last couple days have been sunny with blue skies making birds look great and making me helplessly click the camera when they begin streaming in about 3 PM. I know you’ve seen similar pictures before, but these common birds are what made me excited enough to pause writing and see what the camera might capture. Fun, but nothing unusual.

Briefly, DNA tests showed that Hank the Tank was not the main perpetrator of food thefts around Lake Tahoe, and Wildlife Officials have given him a reprieve.

I’m looking forward to seeing Pretty Girl.

Thank you for all you do.

hi you guys its 21 here maybe in the barn no raccoonies but everyone came in there last night and on the sidewalk i put out lots of food thinking they would come. yay on pretty girl and hank the tank innocent until proven guilty  yesterday my laundry and garage cats was out in the garage for bit and trying to get a couple of mice when i brought them in i left out a live trap on my 4 wheeler put stuff in there to keep them warm and this morning had two in there took them to the barn let them go with others in sweets stall. maybe will not go in there.

hi neva yes i think we do think alike on ukran god bless you ukran i have it on all day and night watch till i have to take a break from it i mean i do all my chores and stuff but when i sit down watch it. now ukran pres asking for volunteers to come fight i hope pray many come to help i wish russian soldiers would turn on putin and stay there and fight other russians. cnn said russia not able to do air strikes cause of something with the air control but still surrounding ukran i know neva sanctions okay in the long run they need help Now! poland overwhelmed with ukrans coming there but taking them in god bless them too did you see the lady with pet bird its so cold there have to walk all that ways and wait day or more to get in  but putin cant touch them there nato has special task force ready to go if he does that but not for ukran.  biden sending billions to them for ammunition that i would say poland would have for them or someone close that is in nato so that would get there fast. talking about it helps me been talking to the dogs about it pearl nice to talk to you neva about it well jim some he thinks ukran doing great holding their own. lots of people i know griping about gas prices food prices some food not on shelf at all i think why you at least we have stuff not in war with a crazy evil man. maybe no country should ever have just one person be in control of a country. jim said he saw on fox news awhile back that trump was saying good for putin on this war with ukran and fox news cut him off he cant be on it now i did not see that but read what late night host jimmel kimmel said..
“It takes a special kind of a son of a bitch to see innocent people fleeing their homes and think, ‘How can I make this about me?’ but nobody does that better than Donald Trump    wish he would move to russia or better yet ukran. Gob bless us all and ukranian people

6:40 
36 degrees and sunny.  Maybe ice will melt today off walks and roofs.  Sure hope so. Things are messy and slippery.  Usually I don't mind Winter, but this year it has got me down.
So sorry for the Ukraine people.  Glad Poland is helping settle the refugees. 
Too sad to stay. CUL EV1 GB

7:10  slow mouse again.  Takes several tries to pick up pieces.
Ice still hanging around on walks.  Streets are clear.  30° and mostly sunny.
No plans for today.  Routine doctor visit on Thursday at 2:15.  I like to see him.  He has been my friend for about 30 or 40 years, and I am sure he is the reason I am still alive.  He is a kidney specialist, but knows a lot about everything.  When I had to stay over with my knee replacement he came into my room at about midnight or maybe even later to see how I was doing.  Was a nice surprised to see him.  It meant a lot to me.
Things are pretty normal here for a Monday morning.  Which means not much going on.
Paper says Ukrainians are giving Putin a much harder time than he expected.  Unfortunately it will probably lead to escalation of Russian aggression. God, why can't we just get along?
Well CUL EV1 GB

Pretty Girl, Scott, and an Owl - UPDATE February 28, 2022
Pretty Girl was here again last night—but still unseen. It will probably take ‘The Eyes of the Night’ to do that, I suspect, but she won’t be here for awhile yet.Jim, Jennifer, Scott and Cindy
Jim, Jennifer, Scott and Cindy

Yesterday, Scott came rolling in to the finish line fresh and hatless after dog-racing 30 miles for a personal best time of 2 hours and 45 minutes. Way to go, Scott. You don’t let cold get you down.

Barred Owl
Barred Owl
The wildlife highlight of today was at 3:10 PM when this barred owl fluttered in and flew quickly from tree to tree looking in all directions at each stop as if wanting something to eat. It was the birds’ dinner time, and branches were aflutter with over 200 birds. Apparently nothing looked catchable. But I might have it all wrong because barred owls eat mostly small mammals, not birds. The owl might have flown on because of a lack of squirrels. Barred owls look a lot like great gray owls but have dark, not yellow eyes. A quick and easy identification method.

Thank you for all you do,
