Man, I looked for those keys everywhere!!

I do. It was funny and all the suggestions that were to look.
The fact that it was three years ago though makes me feel old.

Well I'm going to thank the Lord that I was there but one of the two does that wasn't due till Thursday, of course kitted at 8:15 last night and Sub-Zero temperatures thankfully I caught it oh, but it meant being up every 2 hours changing heating pads in the heated Barrel after spending hours trying to get them dried off and warm with a hair dryer. I was up every 2 hours I've been to this morning trying to get them going in the buckling is doing okay I left him with the dough with a doeling this is to weaken the cold is too much so she had to come with me today I'm hoping I can reintroduce her tonight I really don't want to make her a bottle baby, but it's better than dead baby. it is some sort of cosmic joke they have to call kid Sub-Zero temperatures instead of waiting until their due date when it's going to be warm and nice. Not to mention I really wanted to get a good night sleep after having been up the night before dealing with new babies in the freezing cold so that I wouldn't be in a total comafor today. Oh well I should count my blessings they are all healthy. I had to pull the one and bring her with me though.

I'm still around; just hanging back "copying the mail"
Spent 6 days in the hospital fighting the flu; almost beat me, literally. Gained a pacemaker for my trouble.

I was worried when you weren't around, I guess I was right to be worried.

For your amusement!
The quail are 3-weeks tomorrow. I have had them jump out of their brooder, and I’ve had them jump into my hand. And now I have had them fly across the living room. I didn’t know coturnix could fly.
Thankfully, Maaco was in my bedroom. I’d be down my favorite quail if he hadn’t been.
