RN Merrysea, if you don't hear any scratching in the wall, feel the wall and make sure it isn't hot. The dog may be sensing something else.

RN, Dogdoc, thanks, I just felt the wall and it's pretty cool to the touch. Since it's cold and wet out, it would not surprise me if there was a little critter seeking warmth (although it's not too warm in my house - they should go to the neighbor's!).

RN I just came to check and see how the joke went on Naja's dogs. Too cute! Your dogs are adorable and that squirrel looked real perched up there by the feeder. RN I hope that mouse of Merrysea's goes to visit a neighbor!

RN, we are having a major snowstorm. DH is out snowblowing. Someone from the Discovery Channel stopped to film and talk to him. He asked if he will be on tv, and the guy said "We'll see, after everything gets edited." He looks like an abominable snowman or crazy bank robber in his snowgear. LOL!

RN, and I mean really, just before I typed this, my 13 year old cockatiel named "Kitty" was screeching in the kitchen and flying around crashing into the walls. He was screeching like he was being murdered. I thought maybe one of my dogs went crazy and was killing him. So I ran in there, got him off the top of the fridge and put him on my shoulder where he feels safe, and I peered out the window. I swear to God there was 2.5 foot tall chicken hawk walking around my deck just outside the window where Kitty's cage is. Poor thing, no wonder he was terrified. I sent my dogs out to scare it off.

RN, ok, DH says it was 2 feet, not 2.5. It was huge, that's all I know.

RN, Naja the visual of that just cracked me up! Poor little Kitty. RN, there appears to be no end to the snow. Dfen, we had about 8" by this afternoon. It's still falling but a bit slower than before. Our part of the state is getting the worst of it.

RN, Mak1, it was funny. Out of the corner of my eye, at first it looked like gnome was walking around my deck and it even scared me.

RN, you just made me laugh again, Naja. I'm sure it would have jumped me, too! RN Dfen, Florida is looking very enticing! We're bringing tiedowns to strap you to the roof because the car is always jam-packed.

RN it is the anniversary of my grandmother's death. How I wish I could sit at the kitchen table with her again, eating a bowl of her homemade chili and planning our next trip together.

RN I want to tell GAL that I understand and wish I could give you comfort. RN I am proud of you Dfen for trying to quit smoking. I am not strong enough to do it yet, and I need to. Hang in there and do the best you can. RN I am EXCITED because Craig surprised me with tickets to see The Nutcracker, by the Maryland Regional Ballet, on Saturday at the Weinberg Center for the Arts here in Frederick. It's an old 1920's theater with the original pipe organ which they still use for silent movies. I have wanted to see The Nutcracker since I was a little girl. See, I wanted so badly to be a ballerina. I practiced and practiced. Then, at age five or six, my mother had to remove me from dance class, because I kept falling down all the time because of my polio. Evidently, all the other girls would giggle and fall down like a big game of ring around the rosie. I was a distraction. It was crushing, but I kept dancing in private. So, Saturday, I will get dressed up in my prettiest dress and go to this fancy theater and one of my dreams will sort of come true. RN I am extremely lucky to be so loved and married to someone who really gets me and cares.

RN: I really wanted to take my girls this year, but could not afford tickets to the one in Sacramento. I used to go as a kid with my grandma and nana. I loved it and hope to share it with my girls before they are all grown up.

RN DH is so crabby from having his colonoscopy this morning. He hasn't eaten in 26 hours. So as soon as he is done tooting out all the air they pumped into him, I am going to make him his second favorite fattening meal. Cheeseburger and macoroni&cheese. eta, his first fav fattening meal is fried pork shops, fried slice potatoes, and mac&cheese, but I don't have any pork chops.
