Oh, a few more stats about my week: took 774 photos, saw 54 species of birds, 13 of which I have never seen before in my life!!!! I'll post more pics later :)

I head back to MT tomorrow but have had an AMAZING week!!! The weather has been spectacular, and my Mom and I have been VERY busy. I'm going to be sleeping on the plane for sure! We biked 23 miles on the paved rails to trails one day, then walked her dogs later that night. Mountain biked one...

Mary, I used recycled plastic containers in the bottom of my big pots to take up room. Things like soda or juice containers with the lids on tight.

Don't hate me for visiting my mom in Florida, where it was in the high 80s today and we went kayaking and swimming. :hide Will some fab bird pictures from today make up for it? Limpkin eating an apple snail Little Blue Heron White Ibis Great Egret Tricolor Heron

I briefly contemplated the Chacos with wool socks approach, but decided I wasn't granola enough to pull it off...

I need your advice...tonight the low in Montana may be TEN BELOW. Ack! I'm getting up around 5 am to head to the airport to fly to ORLANDO, FLORIDA to visit my mom. WHAT in the WORLD do I wear to the airport?!?!

I will admit to having a pretty grumbly internal dialog with myself when people tell me they're smokers. I TRY and keep it internal, but I'm sure my attitude is obvious. Its just really difficult for me not to be critical when I see patients every day, suffering at the end of their lives from...

Yes we have both mountain and black capped chickadees, i think the mountain are cuter with their white eyebrow slash (i think in the area called supercilium).

SweetMissDaisy thats a great idea (and nice to hear from you!). I'm not a dinosaur, I have synced calendars that I can access anywhere, am constantly online...but I still have a paper address book.

I bought some nijer seed in a sock like that recently, hoping to attract some goldfinches...not yet, still just getting my boring old house finches and chickadees.

Earlier Marshall talked about how the plastic he used to line his beds is breaking down, i think he's removing the plastic pieces.

I've done a baked dish lately with cubed sweet potatoes, diced up cooked bacon, and feta stirred together. Just dump it in a casserole and bake for a good hour on 375* or so. Its delicious and easy!

When I worked as a vet tech, we didn't worry about contracting too many things - blood, other body fluids were not a big deal unless we had a concern for rabies or possibly one other thing. BUT we were all cautious about the cat litterboxes (wore gloves), and taught our clients about...

7 times this month?! Oh my word, I feel for you...no good advice though.

I really love dried, candied ginger, and often chop that up to add in cookies or like a crumb topping to a peach pie....yum! I also keep some Gin-Gins around the house, a chewy ginger candy.

We had SUN today in NW Montana! You can see what I was up to...(along with riding my bike about 9 miles on the roads around a wetland checking for birds, whee, fun!) Immature Bald Eagle

Red, that blue color looks really nice with the brick AND the apricot hue in the new living room, nice choice!

Oh no, that SUCKS. And you still approach it with your usual sense of humor and appreciation for (whatever) good you can find. Please tell me you at least said a 4 letter word.

Sad news, sorry to hear about about this. :(
