Bell was here at 8:00 this morning and when the technician tried to switch the phone wires they kept shorting out. :8O: Now waiting for a digging crew to solve the problem. No telephone but still have internet. Things never go smoothly!

Aw, that is so unfortunate about D2 and the mother eagle as well. I know at the Service Dog Project one of the baby owls who hatched at the farm suddenly passed away. They felt that the parent owl had picked up a mouse that had been poisoned in the neighbourhood and had fed it to the owlet. No pesticides or poisons are used on the farm so it wasn't from there. Maybe the Decorah mother eagle picked up something like that. :(

Thank you for posting the news, Carole.

It took @ 7 hours when we had our Bell technician here. He had to run wires from the box next door on the boulevard, through our garage, into the basement, and then upstairs through the floor to the TV in the corner. Good luck with yours. Make sure that you have him check your printer as well if it is connected remotely to your computers. My printer is like that to my laptop. He reconfigured the settings for me because I didn't know how to do that.

A photo of my sweet sister Margot and me at her 70th party. It's hard to see but I bought the outfit she is wearing, top and silky pant.

That is a lovely photo of two beautiful and happy sisters, Carole. Margot's top is eye-catching and fashionable. You must look really nice in yours, too. I like your bracelet, by the way. You and Alan are adorable together. <3 <3

Cheryl - Thanks for your lovely comments. <3 The bracelet is 14K gold and my Mom gave it to me about a year ago. She always said that she wanted to see her daughters get enjoyment from anything she gave us, not after she passed away. I have several beautiful pieces of jewellery she gave me and of course Margot too. Also, lots of antique serving pieces and even a china cabinet which I always loved. When she had to go into senior living at 91, we cleaned out her apartment and took what we wanted and later when she went into the nursing home, she gave all her beautiful furniture and china dinner service to my cousin's daughter who had just bought a loft in Toronto after getting married, and they couldn't afford any furniture. They treasure all her things as well. I am surrounded with lots of wonderful memories. :wub:

Carole, I read the update you posted about the procedure and reason for removing D2's body. I didn't watch the video because of your warning.

Your mother had a thoughtful heart sharing her precious possessions with you, Margot, and the young couple when she knew who she was giving things to instead of after she passed away.

G'day Peeps, been really busy at work yesterday and today was a total blah day but I needed to do 'nothing'. So I sat and watched recorded programs and read the paper. It was that kinda day, cold and rainy.

Lovely bracelet Carole, and you all look so happy (what smiling at turning 70?! rofl ) Maybe you'all made it that far.

Very nice of you mom to share her memories and pass them on. My mother did too, but more for the reason she was worried someone would steal them from her when she "becomes infirm". She is too feisty for that!

Cheryl, 8 hours is a long time for a problem to be solved! Glad it was in the end.

I couldnt read or watch about Decorah, just too sad. I've been watching our Sydney SeaEagles, they've been in nestorations (after the femail disappeared, another turned up) but it will be a few months before eggs are laid. Happy to see them together though.

Tomorrow we have Bob's son and GF coming over for lunch. Should be a nice afternoon.
