Oh I almost forgot the most important one of all, thanks Melissa for the excellent work on the banner, you are such a talented young woman, and I have told you that before, but it bears repeating because you deserve it. I know you worked hard and long on these banners you make and I want you to know that you are appreciated very much here. You are going to go far with the talents you have and I am very proud of you. Love ya, Judy

And not to leave anyone out: Laurie, thanks,it is my pleasure having you here as well. Jessica, thanks for the offer to do a backflip, but I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself for me.:ohmy: Zeta, thanks, and if you want to be like me you had best get busy and post, you have a long way to go.:laugh: Tari, thanks for the nice thoughts. BMustee, thanks, yes that is a lot of posting but no I won't get to 10000 by the end of the year, remember it took me 6 months to make 5000. Debbie and Pamela, thanks for the congratulations, I appreciate that. Heather, thanks girl, but I do talk a lot, you can't make 5000 posts in 6 months by keeping your mouth shut.:whistle: Connie, thanks and I loved the woohoo banner with the little guys doing the wave.:laugh: Susie and Sara, thanks for thinking of me. Love all of you Judy<br><br>Post edited by: judygram, at: 2007/11/05 03:24

Valerie, thanks for the kind words about me, I try to give the best advice I know, and that is not much sometimes, but if I get an A for effort, then I will take it. I'm glad you enjoy reading my posts and I value your friendship, it means so much to me even in the short time you have been a member here, I feel like I have known you for a long time. You are a wonderful caring woman and your Dad is very proud of you as am I and I look forward to sharing many laughs and posts with you in the coming years, you go girl. Love ya, Judy

Thanks FairY, for the congrats on my making 5000 posts, and how did you know I love disco music for I do, it is my favorite. I love making posts, I may not know much about what I am talking about, but I like to make friends and have some fun so the next 5000 might not be too far in the future, so watch out. Love ya Judy

Thank you Dan for the congrats on making 5000 posts and what an example I am with my big mouth and bullcrap I shovel around here all the time, but thanks for the confidence in me. I'm glad I can bring a little smile to your face and make things here more bearable for you, I try my best to make it fun for whoever thinks its funny and for those who don't think I am funny, well that is their problem now isn't it:laugh: Don't you ever change, Dan, I love you just the way you are, straightforward and honest and I am glad to call you my good friend. Judy

Thanks Mark for the kind words and we do have fun here don't we, especially at the name on top game, you and I are back and forth on that one. You have been a good friend to me here and I value your friendship more than you know, especially the fact that you are a man, nothing against my women friends but men friends are something else. I look forward to many years of sharing posts, comments and laughs with you and you have certainly brought many a smile to my face, and I love ya for it. Judy

I am thinking of getting me one of those Ipods, those little ones with the ear buds, but I don't like the idea that I cannot hear a vehicle coming if I am listening to music, I walk on a dirt road and the road is not that wide.

Kristin, thanks for the kind words, but you don't have to butter me up, I love you regardless of what you think of me. That makes me happy that you look up to me but I am far from someone you should emulate. Even though we have a big age difference, I feel we share a lot of the same values and opinions and I have certainly enjoyed our many conversations on the IM and I hope we continue to enjoy each other's company for many years to come. You are such a bright young woman with good common sense, something that is lacking in a lot of young people nowadays, and I wish only the best for you in the future. I only wish I could be there when you and Andrew tie the knot but know I will be there in spirit and I wish you all the happiness you deserve. I love you, girl Judy

Thanks Beccy and Toni, you both have been good friends to me here and I value your friendships very much. Both of you make me laugh so hard sometimes I cry but they are tears of joy so don't ever stop. This is one great forum and I am proud to have so many friends here and the two of you are no exception, I look forward to sharing many years posting and laughing at each other's antics and comments. Both of you ROCK and I love you for it. Judy

Thank you Dave for the wonderful post congratulating me on making 5000 posts, you have been a wonderful friend to me and I thank your wife for being so understanding of our relationship.:kiss: Not all of my dreams have come true, but I am working on it, it takes time for the dreams I have but I have lots of patience and time will tell if I succeed. Dave you are such a special friend, you have a knack for knowing when to jump in on the IM for a comment and you have had some uplifting words for me from time to time that have helped me immensely, more that you can know. Thanks for being there when I needed you and I hope we have many years together here to do our stuff we do best, make a wisecrack and have fun. Love you, Judy

Tracy, thanks for the nice words you had to say about me, did I pay you enough for them:whistle: , I value your friendship very much. You and I hit it off right from the start and we have been friends and even confidants ever since and I know that I can come to you for advice and assistance any time I need to. I look forward to sharing many years of exchanging posts, pms and laughs with you, for you can make me laugh with one of your witty comments. Keep up the good work Tracy. Love you Judy

Joe, thanks for the kind words and the true words, yes I do speak my mind but I am passionate about some things and I just can't hold back. I do value your friendship very much, and we are alike in some ways, the obvious is that we are two old geezers who don't really give a rat's patootie what others think of us, we are old enough to not care anymore. But I do care about my close friends and I count myself very lucky to have you for a friend and pal, you have been very nice to me, even sometimes when I didn't deserve it but that is who you are. Joe you are a crazy dirty old man but I love you anyway, I wouldn't have it any other way. Love ya, Judy

Thank you Penny for the wonderful post congratulating me on making 5000 posts, I really do value your friendship and it means so much to me to have you say those things about me. I don't deserve such recognition, I just do what I love to do and I have fun in the process. I look forward to enjoying many years here posting and having fun with my newfound friends and I have to say that you are the best one yet. You and I share many things and interests and I count myself lucky that we found each other, thanks for being there for me when I needed you. I love you forever, Judy:kiss:

I guess I could take Josey with me for a walk, I have one of those adventure packs that fits on your back, but not sure if I could handle the extra weight.

Raw unpeeled carrots are fine to give to greys, serve them raw, cooked, shredded, mashed, or whatever form you want. I would not give too many seeds, just a few and offer plenty of fresh veggies and some fruits, I give some with other dried fruits and nuts in their own separate bowl. Don't put anything in their water, those substances usually cause the water to turn foul after a bit and it is not needed anyways. You can give most any kind of nuts, peanuts, almonds, pecans, walnuts, macadamias, pine nuts, cashews, and the list goes on. I'm nut sure a grey could crack a walnut but peanuts, almonds and pine nuts in the shell are good for them, especially as treats. Just make sure he has plenty of toys and rotate them from time to time so he does not get bored with them. And I hope you are only spending the amount of time with him that you will be able to keep up because they get used to that and behavior problems may crop up if it is decreased a lot.

Awww thats so sweet to hear, she did miss ya, that was evident when you got back and didn't it make you feel so good to know that your baby was glad you were finally home.

Contrary to popular belief, all greys do not talk, but most do, so give it a little time, my Josey did not start talking until she was near 1 year old. I'm sure in time yours will too, just keep talking to him and saying phrases and he will surprise you one day.

Well the expert has not been on since you posted your question, so we will wait for his official blessing, but I am sure you are right on this one.

Hey thanks for bringing it to the front for the newbies and even for us older ones, sometimes we forget about threads that have been retired for a while, gives hem new life.

Yes thanks for the update on Oisin, Soibhan, and glad to hear it is going great at your house now, and yes they will poop anywhere and everywhere.:pinch: Thats so funny that Liath would have nothing to do with your husband and now she is all over him.:laugh: We are always glad to get new members with a good sense of humor.:laugh:

I am so sorry to hear this Jimmy, I know you are devastated and rightly so. You should find out what happened to your Beaker and I would be hesitant to get another one from that breeder, but definitely get your money back, this was not your fault. Even though you had not brought him home, you were so attached to this baby and it hurts no less that he was still at the breeders and my heart goes out to you. Know that I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and if you want another one please don't get it from this breeder, I don't trust him.

Tari, you go girl, and whatever helps you to stay on track do it. I don't much care for walking alone either, but I do it anyway, at least I can think to myself for a while. Hope you can find someone to walk with you for support and the company.
