RN, thinking of and missing Twinkie (Tanya) greatly. I know it will be a difficult holiday for her husband Jim. I hope he has good support and lots of people to keep him busy.

Right now, thinking of Twinkie and Nic and sending lots of love and hug to their family and friends. I've been having a few teary moments this week thinking about Nic and not being able to talk to her. Everyone should run and check out Hermione's update. You'll be glad that you did.

RN, I feel bad that I didn't mention Nicole! I wonder if that slap I felt upside my head was from Twinkie for that one! Hugs to you Mamie

RN I'm feeling like a selfish person for being so annoyed that my in laws extended their stay 3 days. I love my DH but sometimes I think I am just someone who was designed to be alone. I get too annoyed too easily, can't overlook the snide comments, the complaining, etc. and I should be able to, for family. I mean, I pretend to be nice, but then have to do stupid stuff like go upstairs pretending to go to the bathroom but instead sit here to waste time and be alone until it's been too long and I have to go back down again.

RN I completely agree with the way you feel Yankee. My DH and I are loners, we do the family stuff, but nothing pleases me more than to get things back to normal. All the relatives drive me crazy, even though I do enjoy them in little doses.

RN, Wii Kinect is SO COOL! We got it for our kids and they've been playing with it the last couple of hours! It is so fun to watch! I hope I get a turn soon! (It was quite a splurge, but I'm so glad we bought it. Good physical activity too. We're lucky that DD won a Dance Kinect game in a raffle. So they/we have 2 games, it came with one game.)

RN Thanks Doc!!! It's considerably better this morning. Still puffy and bruised but not as scary-looking as yesterday.

RN I have a quiet house for a few minutes. The kids got some money for Christmas and Darren got ready to take them to the store. Just as they were walking out the door, 3 of Caleb's buddies showed up, they also got Christmas money and wanted to know if he wanted to walk to the store with them. Darren was about to stay home, but Kota asked him to go to help her pick out a game. Heh, I should feel slightly guilty...I'm sitting here in a nice quiet house, and Darren is now walking to the store with five kids armed with money and a thousand things they want to look at, lol.

RN I wanted to make an update about that huge chicken hawk that was on my deck earlier this month. This time my cockatiel went really crazy, screeching and flying into the walls. That damn chicken hawk was back on my deck and this time it killed a dove that was hanging around my bird feeder. And he did it right there for my bird to watch. Now I am scared to feed the birds outside, as if I am just luring them in for the chicken hawk to kill.

RN, Naja, that's horrible! Your poor bird must have been really traumatized watching that!

RN I am wondering if we should warn the neighbors. DH and I were sitting here looking out the front big front window and the chicken hawk actually took a couple dives at their little orange cat. The cat went and hid in the evergreen bushes. Do you think it could really catch a cat???

It could catch a cat, Naja, and severely injure it if it doesn't kill it or carry it away. They can carry up to 12 lbs. Definitely warn the neighbors.

RN, check the laws. If the chicken hawk is a danger to your animals/pets you may be able to "get rid of it". I am not sure if they are endangered, or what, though.

RN I just looked it up. The red tailed hawk (The type of chicken hawk we have), is federally protected here in Missouri. So you aren't allowed to hunt, trap or kill them.

RN: I would call animal control then, ASAP. That's an awfully brazen bird to be on your back porch.

RN I'm making my first attempt at baguettes. Let the starter sit for 16 hours, now it has to rise for another 3. Patience is not one of my strong points.
