Laurie Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Today is Sunday. I went for a one-hour walk with my son earlier this morning. Then came home to do chores. Popped outside this afternoon to run the lawn mower over the leaves that are scattered about the yard when it started snowing. Stuck with it (like an idiot - I'm sure the neighbors were amused to see me out mowing the lawn in the snow) as long as possible before giving up as I no longer could tell where I'd "mowed". Cleaned Klaus' cage really well and fixed him some oatmeal. Now I'm waiting for hubby to put dinner on ... I'll collapse in front of the TV after dinner! Hope you all are having a great day! We have a lovely inch of snow here...doesn't seem like it's going to stick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I am having a marvelous Sunday. My breeder, Millie called me at 8:30 AM to tell me that my baby grey will be available 11/29 as she did the final formula feeding for the "lil brats" last night. They only want to fly around and not eat formula when they get out of their cage so that is that for them, Millie says. Hooray!!! She will wait 2 weeks before offering them out to new parents to make sure they are all eating well. Their diets are vegetables and fruits first in the AM then pellets. They have had everything and eat everything Millie says from pomegranates and mango to zucchini and carrot tops, she wants them to experience everything so none of her buyers will have any problems with their babies. I just luv Millie she is so patient and loving to her fids. Anyway that is what I am doing getting ready for my grey this fine Sunday. I have to remove most of all the toys and stuff I put in the cage because Millie says I can't overwhelm my new baby and to take it slow but to give lots of luv and cuddle time because that is want she has done to socialize her fids for their new parents. Millie has also been clipping their toenails so they will be use to it. I will also be getting Millie's recipe for birdie bread in my adoption packet which she makes for all the new parents. Of all four I get first pick, meaning I will be the first parent that the new babies will have to pick from. Hope one luvs me back!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casper Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Laurie, That made me laugh about mowing the lawn! Do you still have snow or was it just a quick shower? Janet, I bet you are so excited? It wont be long now until your new baby is home with you.Millie sounds like such a lovely person who only has the birds interest at heart. 11.40am here, and the weather is pretty miserable today! Its raining just for a change and pretty cool. Nothing much planned for today, just got the boys out who are playing away, they love it when the kids are at school all the attention is on them. Have a great Monday everyone, hope no one has Monday blues! Caroline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talon Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Stopping in this am for a quick update on everyones day. It's 29 here, sunny, but cold. I am letting the birds have their usual morning time after breakfast to chat up a storm, then I will take a shower, get the cages ready, and put them back in while I go to work. Will get home around 3, then off to take my daughter to her riding lesson that leaves us gone for about 4 1/2 hours until tonight around 9pm. Poor birdies, they only will get out this afternoon for about and hour and a half..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goralka08 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It's almost 10:30AM and, right now, I'm drinking hot cocoa and watching television. That's all I've done today, so far! lol I'm going to go to the library in a few to return some bird books. Plus, I need to read part of "Crime and Punishment" by Dostoevsky for school....so that's what I'll be doing later. Other than that...my dad is up in the air! :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Well, it's 6:30 am here at work and thinking of putting my Grey Dayo in charge of Marketing. Revenue coming in has decreased and maybe if I can train Dayo to tuck his leg up and hop on the other with a tin cup, we will pick up some additional revenue. ;-) My Hat is off to Jen with the Idea of making your Grey a Key player in your business. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I am looking at the sun shining so pretty now after we had a couple of inches of snow this morning early, was very surprised but delighted, was 29 here on my way to work. Wish I was at home with my birdies but I did bring the little squirt, Sunny with me yesterday and she sat on my shoulder most of the day while I tapped away on the computer.

It started hailing yesterday and I can't remember the last time that we've had this many random flurry days before Thanksgiving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goralka08 Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Betsyboop- LMAO Gordon Ramsay can very well cook....but I swear that he will die of a heart attack by the age of 50!!! You can see his blood pressure rising on every episode! His face will get all red, and the veins will start to pop out, and then the smoke blowing out of his ears follows!
