Almost back...

I know... no cam yet, and not a lot of means to post. But I am going on holidays soon enough, so I can become a bit more active (after my sojourn in Victoria that is :D)

We are moved into the new place, we have all the snakes back, and will be picking up the newly pipped 1.1 pastels next week. And hopefully getting the 20 eggs that are yet to pip back as well.

For anyone that missed it, our place burned down in April and we are in the process of rebuilding. We have been so fortunate, we had our snakes fostered and our girls all laid in foster care.

We moved into the new place (after two months in a sublet) the last weekend of June, then we picked up the boy that pipped from the clutch that survived through the fire.

We also gifted his sibling to another herper that had a similar situation, without such good results.

The wee boy that made it is named Phoenix and he is the BOMB! Eating FT with fervor and is going to be a real sweetheart.

Our one clutch of 5 laid in foster care had 2 survive and they are a 1.1 pastel pairing. I pick them up this next week. :)

Just wanted to warm y'all that my miserable self is back. :P

I have a comp, and am not so bad at tapping into the neighbours' connection, so I can grab some time in the evenings when not pulling double shifts (working about 4 double shifts out of my 6 day work week right now).

I have the snake room almost rebuilt, and it was due to your supports and generosity during our time of such despair.

I missed the site, and am glad to have a bit more stability right now, and I really look forward to catching up on what people had hatched out and what the season has looked like!

If nothing else, I REALLY miss talking snakes and not talking about fires. Seriously, it gets so tiring. :snake:

More later as I know it...

Bruce

We've missed you tons Bruce! I've loved talking to you on the phone but darn it I missed you here!

Everyday I hope for you and Jer that life will start to move forward more easily and the incredible stress you've both been under will ease up.

glad to hear everything is back and running!

Now I see your thread after the pm lol.

Well I am glad to see things are looking up for you. :)

i havnt got to know you yet because i joined after the fire. but i really look foraward to it! ive heard alot about you and i am very excited for you that things are smoothing out! goodluck! WB!
:bow::banana:

OMG, sorry to hear about the fire! I like that name Phoenix, though, rising from the ashes....

Hi, I'm very new here. Nice to meet you. And I love that signature as I feel the same about haikus. :confused:

That is great news Bruce. I am glad that things are going back to normal for you. You and Jer are still in my daily prayers. God Bless You.

Good update! :)

Glad to hear things are starting to get better for you and Jer!!!

Glad to hear things are going well for ya Bruce. A few of us Ottawa folk were wondering as we hadn't heard from you since the bbq! It must be so nice to have your slithery family back (plus a few extras ahah).

Do you think it's a good idea to be transporting the eggs back and forth though? I know it's a pain not having them around and you want to be there when they hatch. But if they're doing fine where they are maybe it's a good idea to leave them be til they hatch out? Just a thought.

Cheers.
