I just found out that my hubby is going to be gone for a couple of weeks for work. I’m like ugh, ok where to this time? Oh it’s not just out of town. It’s out of the COUNTRY. He doesn’t even have a passport. Yet. So that’s on the to-do list. I’m not sure how I feel about it. Normally if he has to go anywhere for work it’s only like a week. Is it weird that I feel weird about it being out of the country? I think I just need to process it and wrap my head around it. Anyone ever been to Manila, Philippines?

Very nice! I used to do competitive air rifle shooting in high school. Had some great times.

Thanks! Do u really think its a decent one or just excited to see someone with one? I think 600 fps is decent but i have Zero experience. It is my first gun ever. I have shot BB guns and pellet guns just havent ever had one that is mine.

To clarify the presents under the tree are not all for the lizards! Tad and Hoshi only have one present each. The rest are for DH.

It went great! Thanks for asking! The process was nerve wracking but apparently I did very well. They awarded me honors Then I spent the weekend sleeping, eating, and doing Christmas-y things. I feel so much better this week!

Congratulations! Good work defending that dissertation with honors! The rest is now easier.

Speaking of Christmas, anybody got all their shopping done yet?

My shopping was complete before Thanksgiving. Still making a few more Angels.
No real decorations this year, but I did get a tree.
Just a few more ornaments to put on it....

It will look better planted in the yard or made into a Bonsai.

I was always better with a rifle than a pistol, but that looks much nicer than the pistols our team had.

So I tried hatching 20 day baluts Via surrogacy of a goose. The surrogate mom accepted the babies when they hatched and so are the others but the babies got rejected by the protective mom of goslings.

She rejected the ducklings when they try to befriend the goslings. I have no choice but to separate the ducklings from the geese. I have no brooder but I use a PC UPS and a rechargeable lamp as their brooder.

The ducklings would have done well on the geese flock but there is a bad gosling mama who hates them.

One of the ducklings seemed injured after being kicked and stepped on by the bully goose mama.

I think this balut duckling is either a Mallard,A runner or a Pateros.
