Finally I am back! Had my phone drop dead on my early yesterday afternoon along with the DSL so i could not come here. Called Ma Bell and went through the horror of their @#$#@$# voice menu getting disconnected several times using my prepaid cell phone before speaking to a person. Elapsed tiem before speaking to the first human was over 20mins. GRR

They did thier magic behind the curtain and told me that they would have a service tech come here tomorrow tuesday afternoon between 3 and 7pm. Needless to say i was not a happy camper.

While I do not like "playing the invalid" i had the thought that if i were to have a medical emergency i would not be able to call even dial a prayer , er 911. Other than a severe low blood sugar there would be no need. But, with two elderly parents in two different states in failing health, i do need to keep tabs on them.

Ma bell agreed and had their technician appear this am by 10am isntead of by 7 tomorrow so i am a happy camper

Siobhan had lots of cuddling and some treats after her ordeal...she can give us a 'baleful' stare when she is unhappy...it is a very disgusted look. Wish I could get that on camera...but NO...she always turns her head away just when you click the shutter rofl

It's good to know how to work the system when you need to George
:ok:
Glad you are back again. :)^

Anyone know where Sandie is? Maybe at the Fair? :unsure:

Penny, Sandie got that horrible virus from searching for how to make swan napkins for her table setting. She probably won't be back here until she's able to get her computer fixed. In the meanwhile, I'm sure she's keeping busy at the fair....and enjoying her new home on the beach!

PANDA UPDATE

Monday, August 10
As the dog days of summer are upon us here in Atlanta, our cool-weather bears are spending more of their days inside and out of the heat and displaying the typical seasonal behaviors of pandas. All of them are getting some extra Zzzzs and spending slightly more time sleeping during their daily routines of eating, resting and playing. Just last week, our adult male, Yang Yang, surprised us keepers and slept in until 10:15 a.m., reminding us more of an adolescent human than a bamboo-eating bear! Mei Lan has also enjoyed a greater amount of beauty sleep recently and never fails to make us smile when she sprawls out with legs akimbo in her den after lunch. Even Lun Lun, the ever-vigilant mother, has been found snoozing an hour away amidst the remnants of her midday bamboo, not even bothering to climb up into the hammock to rest after eating.

While Xi Lan has also been catching more shut eye, he has impressed us recently with his ever-increasing zest for bamboo. He is seen frequently now with a commandeered-piece of bamboo, chowing down on the leaves eagerly atop the branches of the structure in the dayroom. While he does enjoy his daily serving of leafeater biscuits and fresh banana, he has begun to show some preference for the taste of bamboo. Tonight, as Xi Lan came into the den he shares with his mother overnight, he bypassed the apple, banana and biscuits on the floor in favor of the crisp and dewy Henon bamboo that was propped against the wall. Wanting to confirm his gustatory choice, I dropped a biscuit close beside him. Xi Lan completely ignored this offering and continued his bamboo feast without afterthought. Lun Lun, who thoroughly enjoys her biscuits, appreciated his reserve and made sure that this extra biscuit did not go to waste. No doubt the extra bamboo he’s eating is contributing to how big he’s getting! Xi Lan weighed 22.7 kilograms today, roughly 50.05 pounds of pure panda cuteness. Perhaps he’s bulking up for his birthday pictures?
