Sadie really is smart.  She's figured out that if she goes outside she gets a treat so she gets excited to go outside.  It is so funny.

Goldiec - I'm not sure if you are aware that Border Collies are renown for

being one of the most intelligent dogs? I think you have a pearl in your hands and, if well trained, will be the best sidekick you could ever want, not even counting the unconditional love she'll give you. I am sure it is the best thing for you, especially right now!

I unnderstand - I had to lowerr my music volume when the bird became a

resident here. Mine is a bit of a diva; she wants what she wants  when she wants it. She's playing that ball and chain for all it is worth.

It was just awful FSI. Sleep was nearly impossible until she got home.

I guess it pretty much defines our family if I say that the cheating done

by the great granddaughter had more impact than my rugrat being gay, Lol?  It was amusing, because she is only 9 after all, but there was no way I'd let her catch me giggling behind my hand. I doubt she'll ever do it again.

Love I got, TAPS. Patience is a toss-up on any given day!

Maybe, Pat B, but believe me when I say , never again!

But I started it so I will finish it. I still reserve the right to whine about it.

Good Afternoon

I'm so glad your little flea is doing good.  I was sorry to read that she had Covid.  I know she was happy to be home and having dinner with you.  I often think about you and your animals and it makes me smile.  I give you credit for all the work you are doing with your studies.  I've been busy trying to go through things and get everything straightened out.  It's not easy but my family helps me a lot.  They actually do most of the work.  We have a sunny day here in the city and my grandson Caeser has gone to the grocery store to pick up groceries for me.  My daughter and son-in-law have been busy trying to train our puppy.  She is an adorable Border Collie that seems to have a mind of her own.  She is starting to understand the whole potty situation and hopefully each day she will get a little better with it.  I'm sitting here typing this and sucking on a lollipop. haha  My grandson gave them to me and they are very tasty.  Life has certainly thrown my family for a loop but we are managing the best we can.  I was so happy to see that you posted on Blogit.  I've always enjoyed reading your posts.  Good luck with your studies.

Thank you God, our little girlie is back home and recovering. People here seem to have forgotten about Covid but yes it is still around here as well.We don't go out much. I really admire you undertaking this study and all those tests and exams. I wish I could help but these days I can't remember what I did yesterday.

It has been a sad year or two for most. When we were kids we had a canary one day

we were shouting at each other and it dropped down dead. Dad swore and got

grumbled at by Mother. Dad bought another and the same thing happened.

Budgerigars did seem more resilient until someone sooner or later left a window or

door open when providing exercise. We often saw a parrot in a tree it escaped and

would not come back to ball and chain.

I'm glad Little Flea is doing a whole lot better. I cannot imagine the scare that was.

Good morning

I'm happy to hear that your little Flea is out of danger now. COVID is not an easy thing to get through for some folks. It is shocking when you first learn about a child or grandchild being gay. In my case, I have a gay daughter, brother, and a granddaughter who claims that she is most definitely gay. We accepted it with no issue. People are what they are. That's great that your mouthy bird is back to her usual orneriness. Like you, I enjoy the quiet time as well. It gives me a moment to think, rationalize, and reflect on the things happening in this crazy world. Have a wonderful day!

Awwwww...feeling for you and missing you often and so glad that you came to us in the middle of the night like a wonderful apparition from the past.   So glad that you have the love and the patience to make it through so many things.

You are on the middle of the verge of something great and I hope

you're taking notes.  Oh, well, maybe posting to Blogit is a note you can go back to when you have time to write your memoir. :)  So glad your little flea is okay, what a scare. Wishing you all the good luck that hard work can bring as you study and work toward so much. Take a breath now and then.
