Got a doc'a apt this AM, then off to work. How nice.

GET YOUR PUPPY FIX AS THEY WILL BE GOING TO THERE NEW HOMES SOON.

Morning, Bif! I have the puppy cam up but is still says off air. I hope all goes well with your appointment.

I'm meeting Sherman Alexie today and am way too excited! I have to be "cool" in front of my students, but I'm like a giddy little school girl. LOL!

opps, I was starting a thread at the same time...sorry! Two hump day places to play!

Morning gang!!!

Good luck at the doctor, Bif.

Tribs, being giddy is fun LO Enjoy your visit; sounds exciting!

Miss Bubbles is a year old today so I will spank her shortly LOL! She's wound up today and I would just LOVE for her to meet those SIX puppies LOL!

I can't find my link so will go back to yesterday. That cam is just too much fun and it's causing the economy to fail further as we aren't getting much done here LOL!

Happy Woofday Bubbles! Does she get a special puppy treat? Socrates got a McDonald's cheeseburger on his b-day (don't tell the vet!). Of course, Socrates was a wee bit bigger than Bubbles. LOL!

Hi Donna!

Tribs, I sent Amanda your e-mail address this morning. I spoke to her last night and she sounded stressed about the grad school thing.
Thank you for your input, she was surprised to hear that others of her caliber also do not get into Teach for America....thank you again for your input offer to help and kind words....

and thank you to EVERYONE for their hugs and kind words!! BT is the best.

I will watch for her email. Grad school apps are very stressful. I completely remember going through that.

Anyone know when the pup cam turns on?

I'm having puppy withdrawal; somebody wake those puppies up and turn that camera on LOL!

Thanks for the B day wishes, Tribs. I think I will cook them steak and eggs tonight Sadly I cook for them everyday so to them that's not special LOL! Hmmmm maybe I will just spank her more than normal?!

I was hoping to see the pups before class, but I am going to have to leave soon.

I know...buy her that automatic ball thrower. Does she chase balls? That thing is way too cool.

KIV, I love to be spanked

Hey Bif, who is LIV?
Good cold morning to you all. Looks like we'll be checking out the puppy cam today. Those little babies are fun! I'm on the hunt for kitty cam. (plus work UGH)

My database has been off line since last Wednesday to be upgraded and is up and running this morning. It should be an adventure today.

I'll pop in from time to time to complain.

Bif Bif Bif Bif...

Baby it's Cold Outside!!!

Now I have that song in my head.

I'll leave now...

Have a great morning all!

Off to the doc's. See you all in a few hours.

Good Luck!

Happy Bday to your puppy KIV!

Eileen, thanks for the wishes for our demon girl Also BIG hugs to you as I know you've had some friends with bad news lately; I am sorry. Hugs to you and to them.

We want puppies dammmmit! I'm not gonna be right today; well OK so I'm not right anyday.
I have tons of work today from missing monday so no tooting around for me much today

Tribs, Bubbles loves to catch and to retrieve; she should have been a Golden LOL! Might have to break bad and buy the little shite something today!

THE PUPPIES ARE AWAKE AND EATING!!!! 6 LITTLE BUTTS AROUND A PLATE....

I thought you were trying to stay away from the pups this morning??LOL

Sorry for yelling...the cam turns on at 7:30 a.m. MY TIME...or, PST...lol...they are playing, eathing, bouncing, and little Miss yellow (aka Bubbles in a costume) is at it again...lol...

Happy Birthday Bubbles...I understand your "personality" a bit better after watching little Miss Yellow...lol...

Is it Friday yet?

Hugs to those who need them, Donna, hope it's a better day at work today.

Oh, Mommy or daddy is coming int to say hi...little cuties

Not much else in my world...which is fine with me....lol!

PS...I CAN'T!!! I'm more addicted to them then i am to FB BJ! lol!

Time to make the donuts...

Hi Cynde I better go there really quick and get my fix and then back to the grind stone

KIV, he just cut the tag off the bed that little miss yellow was chewing on ferociously last night....wondered how long THAT would take...lol...i must say, they take REALLY good care of these puppies, you can tell that they think of their safety first.

They are funny and they have the best hooman parents too! Daddy's been cleaning up the poopies hee hee! He's a great Daddy...I must go tell Rob and he s**ks LOL!

I'm off to make some Bonaire Bucks; May is coming fast

G.M.T.A.

Hope everyone is having a great day.....frickin cold here...22 this morning at the house...hey it's not winter yet!!!!! White stuff on the car the other morning!!!!

Anyhow missed out yesterday with the "work" stuff don't look like I missed much other than seeing the puppies (can I say that??)

Tink I'm starting to worry about you!!!!

Saw daddy with the scissors LOL! Miss Thang is quite the pistol!! They really are VERY caring; I'd be proud to own one of their babies!
BH, we can say PUPPIES LOL!

I get there and they are all asleep!! I guess that means it's REALLY break time...I'm cleaning the inside of the fridge. That is NOT a fun job!!! My back hurts!! Kobi, can I borrow your cleaning lady?? I can't use Cynde's, the kitten bites!!LOL

Oh.......puppies.....duh!!!!!!!

Just buy a new fridge.

I would much rather buy a new one!! I hate this thing. I'm too tall to have a door on the bottom and freezer on top. That's just crazy!!! Who invented these things?? Someone 2' 12"?????

Not that there's anything wrong w/ that....

It might be little, but it looks good!! I left out one shelf, so they are all towards the bottom, where I can see them
I'm gonna have my own reality show "Big People, Little Fridge"

I'll watch PS. Might be better then the crap that's on there now?

It will be FUNNY!! Of course all you will hear is "BLEEEEEEEP BLEEEEEEEEP BLEEEEEEEP"!!LOL
I don't think they can air what I say when I open that thing!!

(Message edited by pegisue on November 19, 2008)

PS, LMAO Big people little fridge LOL!
I just wet myself!

I will peek at the puppies later; off to lunch with the boss Puppies is a funny word actually, BH!!!

Can always do it on cable?



(Message edited by bonaire9 on November 19, 2008)

That one's pretty clean, compared to what I just tackled!! Ewwww, the dreaded white bag...what's in that??? SCARY!!!

The above is a live cam feed of PS's fridge.

THE PUPPY CAM IS NOT ON...WTF HAPPENED???

ps...nice fridge...

I think the pups killed it.

You can always watch the Fridge web cam?

I'm sleepy...and going through withdrawals...

I'm missing Krispi

Come out and play with us.

Mother Freddie is also MIA.

I'm starting to not feel so fresh here.

Darn! I come back and cam is not working. Ugh!!!

Grasstoucher, do you have a coffee can?

They are back

TRIBS, IT'S BACK!!!! THEY ARE PLAYING!

PUPPIES ARE ON AND THERE IS SOUND!!!

They are just too cute!

Who is the little snotty one on the far right front?

Can someone call my customers and tell them that I'm out sick...
I've got a bad case of Puppy Love



Morning Everyone!

I've printed out their names and collar colors...
I dare you to click on the Full Screen button on the bottom right of the gray frame....
double dare you!!

I'm gonna get so busted. They need to stop barking!

I just had a crew of firefighters come in and forgot about turning down the sound before I went out to help them....

Yup, I'm busted

Well...gotta run again. I'm glad I finally got to see them. They are adorable!

That'd be it BH
Help me pleeeeease!
Time to squeeze in work while the pups are asleep.

Bif

Did your doc visit go well?

did you get more blue pills?

did you have to cough?hehe

something weird about that cam...does it open a port to your computer?

I know call me paranoid..

Krispi, you found us.

No, it was a follow-up thing, all is well.

if puppies start downloading to your houses...whew

You have a fire wall?

no, will fire stop them?

i have a blow torch, will that work?

you guys have had an interesting day of puppy worshipping...



Tara, glad you and Guy are OK

Don't look at the puppies.

I'm headed to my safe place, see you all later.

Just need to find my coffee can.

Got it.

Thanks Krispi We're organizing a fundraiser for a beloved cooking teacher, Paule McPherson. She and her husband had lived in their cottage in the mountain since the early 70's. It was the site of many class parties. Very sad to know they have lost everything but the community is really coming out to help ~ so many businesses are giving things away (Longs Drugs gave fire victims free toiletries and assundries), restaurants have been offering free meals and landlords are opening up places for free. One apartment complex had 3 apartments that were empty ~ they filled the refrigerators and furnished them before giving them to victims for the next 3 months free.
That's the Santa Barbara I know and love

WOW, isn't that something...people do have big hearts...especially in times like these.

Even a big city can be a "small Town"



have a good evening Jerry.

Tribs, the little snotty one is Miss Yellow...she is a spitfire! lol!

Boom, sorry about your friends home...tragic. Glad the community has come together. San Diego did quite the same last year with those fires.

Back to PW.

Hi Krispi...all this will be over when they go to a new home....waaaaaaaa!

Not the size of the town, simply the size of the hearts
I just got this slideshow - pretty spectacular shots of the fires and the helicopters (not that hubby was on it!) Santa Barbara Tea Fire slideshow

I wanna take a nap with the puppies -- maybe I'll climb down on the floor with Miss Rasta.... or maybe I should get some work done!!!!

I'm still here Krispi, just catching up on the work that I did not do yesterday because of the puppy thing.

(Message edited by bonaire9 on November 19, 2008)

Hi Tink...you haven't downloaded one yet??

It is a dangerous thing, watching babies of any species!

wow Tara, horrible

Fire pics...and aftermath...Wow..I'm so sorry for anyone in that area...hugs/prayers/etc...

Had a nice day with Mom. Took her for bloodwork and to K-Mart and to lunch...very nice day! Did some Christmas shopping, too...and got a few things for me

Krispi, you got that right (about the babies of any species) I could watch that one video of the baby laughing about the ripping paper for hours. So genuine!!!

Thanks for the prayers and good wishes Donna. There are a lot of people who will not have the Thanksgiving/Christmas they had planned but still have much to be thankful for!

Did you get your son to fix the PuppyCam for you?




(Message edited by modjerry on November 19, 2008)

Thanks Tara.

See you later kids.

any time

Have a nice night!

Akoni wants someone to wake up and play with him...

Ahhh, over the hump feels good.
I'm making sketti and garlic bread and salad. smells good in here!

So, I got an appt with the surgeon for Dec 8, then I'll get a surgery date. Guess there's nothing left to do but enjoy till then?! We're going to have a "going away party" for my uterus. lol (Suggestion made at work, and my girlfriends WILL do it!)

OK, GROSS! So I'll quit talking about it. I just hope all our BT family gets over the humps in life, has fun, and has luck and a positive outlook. It's all good!

Puppy cam DOES NOT work for me! Will get son to check it out later.

Hugs, Kathy! Now can I say "be well"????

Boom - why was it called the Tea fire? Were the college kids brewing a little black peako or Earl Grey when the winds kicked up? (Just joking - but not about the name the tea fire....)

It was almost funny to look at the slide show with puppy grunts coming from a downsized window! Almost as if they were there. Not funny ha ha - but funny weird.

I don't know why, but I thought all the puppies were male. Duh for me. Here's the roster:

Girls:
- Autumn (Purple collar) - 4 lbs 1.2 oz (as of Nov 18th)
- Ayumi (Yellow collar) - 3 lbs 14.6 oz (as of Nov 18th)
- Amaya (Red collar) - 4 lbs 0.2 oz (as of Nov 18th)

Boys:
- Aki (Green collar) - 4 lbs 13.8 oz (as of Nov 18th)
- Akoni (Black collar) - 4 lbs 8.8 oz (as of Nov 18th)
- Ando (Blue collar) - 4 lbs 15.0 oz (as of Nov 18th)


I had a FUN afternoon! I met Chudney and the girls over at the University where they have an ice skating rink for the next 6 weeks! That's the University of Central Florida (UCF) where my son is employed in the IT group in the graduate studies office. It was awesome. Fortunately we were initially the only 4 people in the rink! I haven't been on ice skates in about 20 years when we took the kids to the UCONN rink for their only ice skating opportunity. Surprising, after a couple of laps of railing hugging, it came back! Chudney had only been on ice once, and the girls never! It was so much fun to watch them! Kira (9 yrs) was really getting the hang of it by the time we left. She still wanted to stay close to the railing, but was pushing off and gliding some good distances by herself. She fell once - and when I went to help her up - YES! - we both went down! Alex kept going round and round with one hand on the rail, but she did exceptionally well for a 3 yr old. Both of the girls thought this new experience was a blast! Little Mommy was working slowly at getting her skating legs to work, but I think she was more afraid of falling and breaking something to really let go! And I'm happy that I've broken nothing too! We will go back again and give the girls more experience at this new skill!

Have a nice night!

Hey BT... Missed ya had to do the 4 letter thing (work) I need to go divin'

Oh yah...

Good evening all...The puppies are up and I do like the sound.

Evening gang!
Mark, been wondering where you have been!

Debbie T, how's that cute little Grace and how's Granddad?

Home after long day and a little therapy at Bed, Bath & Beyond! OK girls this is WRONG but.....they have a new PedEgg!!!
It's a PedEgg with a handle O M G!!! LOL I am busting my arse back out to BB&B and get the dang thing tomorrow. I had blown my wad there already and then saw that as I was leaving!!! Made a better mouse trap on that one for sure.

It's like 12 bucks too....WOOHOO!!!
PEDEGG!!!

Are puppies up?!?!?!

Well I see they are up LOL!
Donna get you son to get you hooked up on the PupCam.....they'll be gone soon.

Wow, so we made it over hump day and now it's all down hill, to the weekend, from here
Just got a call from our next door neighbors who adopted a little boy earlier in the spring. She's a school teacher & he just got laid off 3 weeks ago We noticed his company truck was gone but assumed he was working out of town. He seemed scared on the phone and I'm sad for them; just in time for the Holidays!!!

Tara, so very sorry about all the loss out your way. It just breaks my heart!!! What an uplifting thing to hear and see a community come together in times of need though!

KIV, they ARE awake, and Miss, yellow is reaking havoc again...lol...

Michael got laid off one year two weeks before Christmas...I had to take back ALL of things I had bought as presents to save money. Kindly, all of the retailers understood my situation and refunded my money for the gifts. It was a LEAN Christmas...so, I can feel their pain.

Mark, we missed ya!

Uh Oh, their bumping the camera again! lol!

It's like watching an earthquake!!! They just make you smile

Hi Mark! Hi Kobi!!

Sorry to hear about your neighbor -- I'm afraid it's only going to get worse before it gets better.

I found the info on pet fostering so if my friend's friend doesn't need me for their Weimariner I'll see what the shelter has. The cat place said over 100 people have come in looking for lost cats

Well, the pups have settled down... that was quite a spurt!!

Oh and Gail... the fire was named for the area that it started in, the Tea House gardens. It's an area that was an estate at one time but has been left for public access to trails.
more information
It will be interesting to see how the DA handles the 10 college kids who started it. Very sad.

YAYYYYY!!!! Daniel got me the puppies!! He had to "unrestrict a port" or something...now I can see them...before I was watching an Alaskan Red Squirrel and some birds stealing the squirrel food..pretty neat!!

I hope you had no other plans for the next two weeks

Good Job Daniel!!!!!!

Hey, Cynde
There will be a fair share of lean Christmas' this year I am afraid

I was LMAO when the camera was moving LOL!
Little Miss SP sure does have energy; I swear she never naps LOL!

Mommy and Daddy have some scooping to doo

yes they doo doo
couldn't resist, sorry

me thinks the babies are hungry....

Tara, thanks for sharing that link. I am scared for a lot of people I know that have tightened their belts in this economy! Even this black belt shopper has had to take a step back and re-stratagize and me NOT like it!

I was sick to my stomach about hearing that some kids had a bonfire and now that mess OMG that is just horrible!!!

Donna, YIPPEE on getting the cams working for ya! I'm glad you can see what we see LOL!
Something has their attention over to the right though at present

Doo Doo LOL..I'm laughing now for sure Some words just make ya giggle!

I was wondering if it's chow time

My speakers are having a hard time with the howling --- LOL!!!!

MOMMMMMMYYYYY!!!!! They just put Fur-Mommy in


We'll all make it through --- we have each other!

Awwww it's big mommy dog

can you say... OUCH!!!! x6 puppy teethies

She looks like she wants to be left ALONE!!

She's adorable!! I want her!!!

$$$$$ man! Shopping today...everything is sooo expensive and my friend is trying to buy a new car and they are offering a 13% interest rate...ouch!!!!!!

Boom - I'm torn about these kids. IF they truely thought their fire was out, then this was an accident that though no one could see..... and yet it caused such a horriffic result that we want to blame SOMEone!

Not really for me to say. I'm not the judge......

That is an OUCH % interest rate! Dang, forget that!!

I'm stocking up on dog food; canned and dry, frozen food stuffs for us & things that will keep for a while. I think the survivalist in me has kicked in full speed now!

OK, is the cam stuck or is my puter fuff fuffing?!

OK I fuffed

Gail, I'm glad I'm not the judge either. Very, horribly sad

Not stuck here...they are beating up on Mom!

He took Mommy!!

It's stuck

Yeah, Gail... it's a hard one. Most people who I spoken to and saw in the news say they do not want to blame but it helps to know how & why they lost everything.

I thought car companies were giving better rates right now?? We always have a basic stock of food but I will admit to stocking a bit more than usual lately. Mostly liquor

Cams not stuck...he took mommy, now pups are tearing at a blue toy of some kind...

ah there she goes - I had to refresh the page.
poor momma was stuck with a bunch of babies hanging off of her!!!

The unfortunate part of blame comes down to who's going to pay... the cost of fighting the fires (4.9 million) and you know the insurance companies are going to go after someone.

I just wouldn't want to be them or their parents

Atta girl!!
I might have to take that route too and ensure I have more Crown and a cheaper version of it too
I like Canadian Mist as backup LOL!

I am loving these pups; makes your day a little brighter regardless how poopy it is They are determined to tear up their bed LOL!

I'm impressed with their pad hitting skills. I own stock in the wee pad company LOL!
Bits and Bini will use them if they have to; Bubbles won't at all BUT she's a good go outside girl. Minus the occasional stick pickle dropped behind the loveseat LOL!

Oh my wasn't that just the sexiest man....
I love a man who talks puppy talk

Rasta was amazing --- never peed in the house once. She was almost 12 weeks when we got her but she'd been in a cage before that puppymill

You guys make my night.

I'm LMAO it looks like Akoni (black collar) is barking at his poo!!!!! So dang funny

I bet Jerry talks puppy talk

Good girl, Rasta!!!
I'm glad she was rescued from that mill!!!
What a blessing she is to you both & visa versa

Jerry, thanks for putting up with all of us and all of our posts

I just saw that and was giggling; He was lunging at it LOL!
My sound is off since all my girl are snoring!

He was very brave indeed

I'd better pull myself away from this and close the shop down. My own furchild would like a walk and I would like a cocktail --- good thing I know how to multi-task!!

I most likely will not turn on the puter at home so....
Sleep Well Everyone

Evening Kobi. Thanks for asking about Gdad. We had a care plan meeting last Wed. and they said he was 50% improved and will probally be home for New Years. Still a lot of confusion but with the Deminsha we knew it was comming. Strength is getting better but he needs to eat more than two bites of food to be strong enough to come back home.

nighty night Boom

Grace now thinks the dryer is her playhouse. I'll post a pic.

Tara!!!! Thanks for hanging with us
THANK YOU, also, for Bubbles' adorable E birthday card!!!
Love it and you THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grace playing in the Dryer

Glad to hear about your Granddad! Prayers that he continues to make improvements now and into the new year!

Your Grace is adorable; loved the pics of her hair LOL!
OYE...the dryer?! I gotta see those pics!!!

There ya' go. She still has the hair. maybe a little static cling in it now. hee hee

OMG she IS in the dryer!!!!

LOL......probably a tad of static cling from that hidey place LMAO That's cute!!!!

I haven't heard the whole story on that yet. I just got the pics today.

Awww all the cam puppies are taking a nappy
A pile of puppies LOL!
Man, they are going to miss each other when they go to their forever homes! I'm gonna cry!!

I remember we used to get in the dryer when we played hide and seek in the house. i grew up with 4 girls in the house so we had to be inventive when it came to hiding places.

That is a pile of Pups. Where is this cam located? I think I missed that.

I bet you did!!!
I used to hide in a great cubby hole in the very back of my Mom & Dad's closet.
My sister is 8 years younger than I so I could fool her all the time!!

one time my oldest sis hid behind the shower curtain and scared me half to death. I was always cautious checking there again.

I'm the second of 4 girls then came the 2 step-brothers when I was about 12.

LOL, the shower hidey spot Great one for sure when you're a kid.

I guess I am going to have to bail as I'm seeing more of the insides of my eyelids LOL!
I'm exhausted. Must catch some Z's.

Hugs to everyone that needs them; prayers as well.

Have a good night Debbie T. and everyone!

Good Night Kobi, Thanks for being you.

Night all!
