6:18  Nice out this morning.  42 and sunny.  May go out for a walk or even a bike ride if wind is not too strong later.  Not much planned.  Eagles are showing off all over, but bears are all sleeping yet. Time change is not my favorite season fyi.
Neva, I really liked Jack Parr too, as well as George Goeble.  Tried to watch the late shows last night.  Forgot it was Sunday and no shows.  So watched news instead. Then had trouble sleeping.

GB EV1 and GB Ukraine.

  Clown Fish  ...   24:19            77°  (3:40 pm)  Sunny day, breezy, wind chimes playing ... and I wish I were going somewhere. 

Hi everyone.  Got some windows open today, it feels good.

 Joho ...   Debbie should really keep an eye on Bosses weight, it can be a life shortening factor.  My Maddie was overweight, and the vet warned me.  I didn't really get that under control, and I know for sure that it shortened Maddie's life.  I do fault myself for that.  I regret that so much.

I had forgotten about George Goeble.  Yes, he was funny.  I also liked Dick Cavett. 

Cal ...  Eleven miles is pretty darned close.  I guess he doesn't care if he hits the beehive or not.  I hope that China stays out of it.  I think they are sitting back taking notes for the most part.  I wish I had a Time Machine.

hi joho neva been a very scary day i went to harps after i gave pearl her med two months ago when i went to her vet to get my 4 refills i get them at vet supply place in kansas close to susies she gets a full scoop every morning has for almost two years now but when i went in he only gave me 2 refills said cut her meds in half last for 4 months too i was upset said she was so sick before and been doing good on this dose he said it is expensive well mine and jims money he is not paying for it. so i came home upset told jim. so pearl been on that today was exactly two months i noticed she was like a little off at times. so came home put stuff away let the dogs out go check on pearl as soon i open the door i look for her no pearl my heart she was down her legs under her hay feeder. she called out to me i saw she kicked her salt block out i thought she slid in that oh it had pee from her and its  where she was when she was so bad and went down all day long i thought if jim was here he took her back legs i took her front roll her over and get behind her push her up . so i went back in called jim he knew by voice it was bad i told him pearl is down he said leaving ford i put a pillow under pearl stroking her face she tried to get up but too close to that feeder i tried but could not turn her over trying to keep her calm jim got home said he called justin who lives not far away justin came in jim had a strap but i said try to pull her legs over get behind her he told me to get back him and justin pulled her legs over she flipped over and was getting up they pushed her from behind up she came she was shaky but walked around i was bawling ty god ty jim justin she was looking for me i told jim we got to put in dirt fill this area up level it out but so muddy out still snow in places so i said put that feeder that was susies up on the gate put her hay over here solid ground. pearl was flighty nervous she would bolt stop she clipped me i went sailing hit that hard ground but i got up nothing broke cause i break my hip i will go down like my mom did. jim was working on the hanging feeder in his shop but first he called vet he raised his voice too told megan dr in surgery pearl was down never did that when she was her full dose never i want her back on it period. thank you jim so later dr called jim said i can pick up new script 4 refills full dose he just wanted to see how she would do. well not good but caught fast. i gave her full dose with more grain. so pearl calmed down eating her hay out of new feeder but it has to be move not today but put it elsewhere if she kicks her gate and she does get foot in that feeder maybe and joe cant do her with it there. she tried to bite sweets so that was good i brushed her out ate her treats i went back out little while ago and she is standing over where ground is solid sleeping. pick new script wed i was going to cancel implant dr wed at 9 my stitches fell out the next day my cap is still on my implant i feel fine cant leave pearl jim is going get off stay with her wants me to see dr foster and then on the way home i will go get new script. i hope china does not give putin the aid he is asking for. god bless ukraine god bless pearl god bless god jesus guardian angels

Cal ...  How scary!  Oh, how awful for Pearl, and you and Jim.  You don't just mess with medication, especially when the meds she was on were working.  He needed to discuss that with you, not just think to himself, well, let's see what happens if we do this.  That would pi** me off too.  Damn, if it's working, don't fix it!  ... at least not in that case.

I am glad to hear that Scout is back.  I would be shocked if a Turkey Vulture (Buzzard) landed in my back yard.  I do get Cooper's Hawks though.

Sorry to hear about Pearl Cal.  That was an awful ordeal.  You will be sore tomorrow.
 If the meds were working seems wrong to change them, but doctors like to taper off meds after healing is complete. I guess Pearl is still healing. I am doing that too as my knee hurts less I will be taking less Tylenol.  I take the max of 3000mg. now and will take away 500mg each day.  I would have been off it by now if my back was good.
Good that Jim and his friend were available to help her.
I have to go now GN and GB EV1 Especiall Ukraine.  Putin just stop for Christ's and all our sake.

hi neva and joho aka you guys its 40 here 52 in the barn one maybe cat everyone came last night and pearl is good!! i have to let the dogs out first thing in the morning wait for them and then head to the barn but jim got up and said have you checked on her yet no waiting for the dogs and he said i will get them so headed out to pearl had to come back in get maybe bowl of dry and can food there goes griz need to post the update

Fox, Bobcat, and the First Woodchuck - UPDATE March 14, 2022
Pileated woodpecker
Pileated woodpecker
At 1:40 AM Pretty Girl came to wish ‘Eyes of the Night’ a good trip home today. Pretty Girl was wary, spending long periods looking out at the dark woods from the second floor deck. She left full, though. Then fresh snow covered her tracks to provide more news from the night. By morning, Bob’s tracks were there outside my window, making me wonder if a bobcat could get used to seeing me at my desk and learn to take food like Pretty Girl does. That made me wonder if Bob would take food gently or would snatch it like some of the mink did at first. Time will tell.

At 8:45 AM, a new sight was the first woodchuck I’ve seen here at the WRI since May 12 of last year. I didn’t know there was a woodchuck here hibernating, and maybe there wasn’t. Woodchuck
Woodchuck
This is the time of year males begin making their rounds to breed. We’ll see if this woodchuck, male or female, stays around or was just passing through. He or she was nice to hold still for a good ID shot in good light to see if it is seen again.

A little bonus after I clicked the woodchuck was the drumming of a pileated woodpecker—the first I’ve heard here in a long time. It was above me in a dead white pine, showing the value of dead wood. But it wasn’t looking for insects. This male had found a good, resonant spot to drum for a mate, look around, and drum again. Always good to see and hear.

Thank you for all you do,

okay hi neva yes i was pretty upset cause i thought that too you do not mess with medicine that is working jim said vet was nice about it put right back on her full dose im sure he did after he talked to jim. but anyway my pearly girlie is back on and yes it was very scary neva for all of us but poor pearl she is so good this morning.  we are well jim and justin take out the big gate in her area pushed over as far as it would go cause i do not have two horses not for along time and will not have ever two horses again pearl is my last one. cleaned all that out buy another hay feeder i got sweets and pearls from where i get her medicine and put it over there. i will leave the other gate pushed back blocks that far corner where water is for my barn birds mice . but pearl will have a little bit more room rotate her eating places.

hi joho i know vet wanting to see how pearl would do but at her expense and ours so happy she is back on her full dose. wow you take alot of that medicine jim trying to shut griz up and deal with the girls while i type this. he sees i have alot of stuff too do and deal with well he just left for ford i got to feed everyone etc. yes putin just stop but we know he will not if china does not help he may just have too if ukraine can keep on fighting if it was just on the ground ukraine would have this and i hope they will. i will be so upset if  china gets involved here putin needing help now no one help that evil !! if he runs out of gas for those planes and bombs ukraine will make it.  i read the history of ukraine and i was happy to read george bush said nato should let georgia and ukraine apply for procedure into nato. he was the president when my dad died and i was just happy that.

i truly think dr rogers could feed bob. bob needs love too. god bless ukraine

5:29  53° already over here.  Pretty nice.  Need to go out after lunch.  Hope it stays nice.
Lots of local Ohio people going to Poland and Ukraine to help refugees.  All different walks of life are packing up and going.  I have never heard of such private activism in the past.  I think the internet make us all feel more connected.
Good to hear Pearl is better, and can't wait to hear if Doc can get Bob tamed a little. 
Well I better get started.  So CUL EV1 GB and GB Ukraine.

I always thought jury duty is a privilege.  Was listed several times, but never served.

  Undersea ...  27:25        84°  (2:29)  It is supposed to reach 87° today.  Sunny, of course and no rain any time soon.

Hello guys, I'm glad that it sounds like you both are having a good day.  I hope anyone else that might look in once in a while is having a good day too.

That is great that Pearl is back to herself, Cal.

Joho --   I think the Ukrainians are teaching us a lot about relationships and family. and love and sacrifice ... and their neighbors too. like Poland.  We spend so much time fighting each other in this country that it makes my heart happy to see everyone trying to help in some way in this current situation ... anything from prayer to going, and so much in between.
