TheGreyMiester Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Hello All, Some of you know me from way back, well not that long ago... I've been away for a while but now I'm back. All along, I have been making my weekly visits with my breeder who only lives an hour away from my home. I have been able to watch Oliver grow from a baby with pinned feathers to almost 6 months old. We were hoping that he would wean around 4 months old but he was just not ready. Well he has been off of formula for 16 days now and this Saturday I go to get him and bring him home. FINALLY! I have never had to wait this long for a pet ever! but it will be worth it. I plan to have pictures, but they will be a little low in quality because my 5 mega pixel camera no longer has a charger, compliments of my kids. Anyway, I will have some photos perhaps Sunday night.
CeasarsDad Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Hi GreyMiester. Welcome back. I'm sure you will pick up right where you left off.. The place has grow a bit from when you were a regular. I think you can tell..
judygram Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 I can't wait to see the new member of your household, Oliver. Yes you had to wait a long time but it is almost over and the fun begins. I look forward to hearing the stories you will have to tell us of his new adventures.
TheGreyMiester Posted June 21, 2007 Author Posted June 21, 2007 Yeah, it has really taken off. The concept of this website is great for community growth. People can easily meet others.<br><br>Post edited by: TheGreyMiester, at: 2007/06/21 01:36

Thanks Judy, I have wanted a grey since I was 11 years old, but something always got in the way; parents, wife, kids, but now that the kids are older (6 & 9) nothing could stop me this time! It's a done deal, the lid is sealed, no if's, ands or buts!
Guest Monique Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Tell us all about it when Ollie comes home!!!!

Thanks for the kind words.
TheGreyMiester Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 One more day to go, Friday, and I get to bring home My TAG. The time is starting to crawl...
Talon Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 I hope the time passes quickly for you. Please let us know when he comes home! That is, if your not too wrapped up in him and find the time to keep us up to date!! :P
Caspersmum Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Hey GM, You must be Sooo excited. I have a handy tip for the poo - which I mentioned on the site before - use an old credit card to scoop it up - it even works getting it off carpet! Good to have you back, Julia
TheGreyMiester Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 Really? a credit card? I will try this! I will take photos of him when he comes home and post them here.
TheGreyMiester Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 I only wish my kids never lost the charger to my 5 megapixle digital camera. I'm going to have to use my phones camera. It's only 1.3 mega pixles but it is not to bad, just a little blurry. My wife always gets on me about putting things on top of the refrigerator, but had I put the charger there, it would still be there! I have basically gutted the house and I can't find it.
judygram Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 We women tend to be that way. Have you tried to get in contact with the company that made the camera to see if you can purchase another one?
Guest Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 G-R-E-Y-M-I-E-S-T-E-R!!!!! I'm so happy for you. Finally: congratulations. I'm looking forward to your photos
Talon Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Greymeister! That's wonderful news! I'm so excited for you. Please post pictures as soon as you can, can't wait to see your new baby!! :cheer:

I still have my video camera and my camera phone. Geez, what poor timing to look a quality camera.
TheGreyMiester Posted June 23, 2007 Author Posted June 23, 2007 Here's just a few camera phone photos. Sorry they are a little blurry. It's overcast here so the lighting is poor also. I will try my best to take better photos of Ollie when he comes home. Post edited by: TheGreyMiester, at: 2007/06/23 02:07<br><br>Post edited by: TheGreyMiester, at: 2007/06/23 02:08
judygram Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Fairly decent photos even if they are taken with a phone. Now all you need is the baby.
Ice Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT, GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT,GREAT, You must be in the clouds. Now your love will just grow and grow more. En enjoy the baby. {Feel-good-000200BB}<br><br>Post edited by: FairY, at: 2007/06/25 12:06
