I love how she takes big long drinks as soon as I put her in her soaks every morning. She has water in her enclosure, not sure why the bath water is so special. Lol

Good morning!

It's going to get all the way up to 57F degrees here today. Whoopee!! But it's overcast. I don't like it when the sun doesn't shine.

I got my new $16 portable CD player yesterday. But now I don't have any batteries. I played it a while yesterday before the batteries went kaput, and I guess you get what you pay for. My other one, the one that I dropped, I payed quite a bit more for. It was an RCA. This one is an off brand. The RCA played real well, never skipped or stopped in the middle. With my new cheapy one, I have to be very careful not to bump or jiggle it or it skips or stops. And when you carry something like that around in your pocket while you pick up poop or rake leaves, its pretty hard to not bump it.

Several months ago I bought Country Music's Greatest Hits. So yesterday I started listening to it. I guess it's ok for a country music buff, but I only like certain vocalists and certain tunes. Most of the tunes on it are by people I've never heard of and songs I've never heard. Then, in the middle of some obscure tune, there'll be a Johnny Cash or Elvis. So I get maybe one song I recognise on each CD. Oh well... I still have my Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson and Leeanne Rhyme CD's to fall back on.

Gonna' rake leaves today.
Good morning Yvonne!

We can use more leaves for sure. :D:D

Other the music.....how old is your Sulcata? I forget about his age, I know you told me once! You have a great day even sun are not likely to show his face today.:<3:

I got Dudley as a rescue when he weighed about 35lbs, so I don't know his age. I usually say he's in his 20's.

And when it won't all fit on the plate...use huge hibiscus leaves to help hold more. LOL

Sow thistle is coming up on the side of the house so I picked some of that and more mallow to add to the endive and grass.
Happy baby piggies.

And the best part is: None of them ( I have two daughter) will have thanksgiving dinner with us. They will all go to their boy friend's parent's house for dinner! How you like that?

Well.....I shouldn't complain right?

Me, I wouldn't like that at all. So since they get them for Thanksgiving, do you get them for Christmas? I let it be known last year, I get atleast one of the two holidays with my kids.

Morning all. Take a minute to bounce over and read my latest post in “regionals". Kind of frightening really.

In a little bit I'll pick all the greens up and put them back in the dish for them to snack on later.

If raw meat, poultry, some spices, some fresh produce and seafood can contain Salmonella, shouldn't they be banned too? No. If all the correct precautions are made, outbreaks won't even happen.

If there is a legit argument to over feeding, I'm probably guilty. But I feel like since their environment is 100% controlled by me that it would be cruel to not have food available when someone gets hungry. I mean, if it weren't winter and they were outside they could mow the lawn if there weren't any greens left, ya know? They'd have options but in their chamber, there options are limited to what I provide.
