Thanks :) ...I'm really excited!!! I hope I can get some good pictures of them. Btw, I am kicking myself for not shipping you and Jennie the covers I had bought to go with the F040's #-o . They are made for those flights, black and keep the light out perfectly...UGH!!! I really need to ship them out to you guys. If you want to see what it looks like, I got them on amazon.com.

:) I'm so excited for February too! We're gonna have so much fun! As for the bird room...I mopped the walls twice with TB cleaner, right over the decals and paint. The only thing that happened was the paint got a bit lighter. I'm so happy all of the work is done and now the fun begins :) .

:) Just remember to KEEP IT SIMPLE! I remember your little melt down about being overwhelmed (I had to chuckle just now) and cleaning the cages LOL

=)) :)) I think we all agreed it was a "Labor of Love" and it was advised us newbies take it slow and break up all the work (I say that as I am avoiding my bird room as I type) [-X

I remember that breakdown all too well...so does hubby :shock: . Hopefully this time around, I can control my bird purchasing impulses. I almost came home with 2 budgies yesterday... Until hubby put the kibosh on it. He's gonna have to keep me in check. Not an easy task!!!

Petco...they were actually parakeets. But the hen that I fell in love with looks a lot like the yellow face budgie in Cindy's avatar. She was the prettiest parakeet I have ever seen. Pale yellow face, pale blue/grey body :YMDAYDREAM: . But as always...Big Joe smashed my dream with his giant man hammer!!!

Oh man, you are so funny! ROFL

I just noticed that your bird rooms stencil/stickers are very similar to the Forums trees and birds. So cute!

It really is...I found myself almost buying parakeets at a pet shop yesterday! This week is taking longer than the past 3 months...if that's even possible #-o . I am sure that the 3 hour ride up to Binghamton, NY will feel like an eternity. Poor Martie...I am going to be SQUEALING like a teenage girl when we finally meet. Hopefully I don't completely embarrass her!!!

:) I agree!!! Martie has been working with me for these past few months to help me get my flock started up again. She's an absolute sweetheart!!! She even set my singer pair up a while ago so that they would be a bonded pair...unbelievable right??? So thoughtful!
I may have to have a few glasses of wine on Friday night to get myself to fall asleep...otherwise I will be up all night!!! I still cant believe that there will be singing in my bird room again this weekend...and what better pair to start with than amazing Green Singers!!! I cant wait to hear their song :) . Makes me miss Zac and Glory though...they had the most amazing little duet :( . This whole new flock thing is definitely going to be bitter sweet for me.
