OMG! that is simply HORRIBLE!
half of me sees myself running and running
for false alarms all day, the other half
wants to join in a cry, too!!!
I've got security alarms, smoke alarms, and cell phones going already, add a baby sound too???? I didn't know it could get worse. And you can tell in that house, every bird in it can cry like a baby. Can you imagine???? Ohmigawd. It does make me laugh every time when it builds to the biggest "WAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!"
OMG! Renee just sent me your Blog I'm so happy to see you and all your kids! They all look so good & lots of new ones. I love your blog it is beautiful and so well & funny written. How are U? BTW this is Maggie Weakley, AKA Margaret Perez I hope you remember me. Hugs!
Oh my goodness!! I don't know whether to laugh or cry! I think I know what the bird would chose...
Margaret-You look EXACTLY the same. Gawd. You have a blog, right? You have to. Horses and kids and dogs and Florida? If you don't, get started right now. Takes all of five minutes.
You probably remember the turtles when they were as big as silver dollars. They are making a deafening scraping noise in the basement right now because they want to get outdoors (it's still too cold for them). They've both grown to become twenty pounds of trouble. And I mean that.
Hope everything is going great for you. I just ran into Robin Y yesterday and she said Max is 25 and married. Your boys aren't married yet, right?????? This time passing thing is something else. How can it go by any faster????? :-/
It was so nice to hear from you (!!!!!) and Margaret, think about starting a blog if you don't have one yet. You've got too much stuff to write about. :-)
Shara-You might like this one better and it might answer your question....

ZOMG!!! I thought my barking parrot was bad!
That is too funny! Thanks for the smile!!
Too funny, my parrot has been screaming all morning for some reason. Just a full, open mouth SQUAWK. Very annoying, but crying baby, oh no no no.
It is fantastic to hear from you. I remember those cute turtles specially STELLA! I love her! I can't believe how big they are, I remember all the stories you use to tell its fun hearing new ones.Your Blog is absolutely wonderful, its so great to see all the pictures and your beautiful Garden. You know whats funny is that I was at Walmart yesterday looking at some greeting cards and yours stood out, the ones that have the music in them with the girls and the desert cart & others. So Fantastic! and then I get home & I get to see your Blog, I love when things like that happen. How is life at Hallmark, what are u doing now? Are U in the same building?
We are all great. My boys are 13 & 12, taller than me- its freaking me out! Specially since we are eye to eye. They are really terrific, both are Boy Scouts, My older one Lucas is plays the guitar and wants to be a Mechanical Engineer loves inventing things, Max 12yr old wants to be an animal photographer. He is like me in many ways- We'll see what happens, I'm very proud of them.

You gotta love this web business, it gets a little crazy but I think its essential for us being Freelancers.
I'm so glad to reconnect lets keep in touch! Hugs!
Barking parrots and squawking parrots and laughing parrots (mine). We should all be very, very happy we don't live with parrots crying like babies. Or worse, a house full of them!
Margaret-I just had a feeling you had a blog. :-)
