Max is my swimmer. I have been keeping the solar cover off the pool since it is so hot and I don't mind if they get in the pool. Gypsy acts like she wants to come out and swim with me but she refuses to come off the steps so I don't push her. Max is doing great swimming beside me if I tell him...

I was a big dummy today :oops: I checked the small piece of bone that had broke off of the one that she was chewing. I told her first then I pulled my finger out to wipe it so I could remove it since she isn't the best about willingly giving up goodies but she will. Me taking the easy way of...

I totally messed up about 70 pictures from a poker run on our lake this weekend! I had the white balance set for fluorescent light and the pictures are blue. Is there a quick fix? I am not god with editing but I do have elements and picassa I think. Thanks

It seem like the foot that he lost the toe on is twisting as he walks which is causing the pad to get sore. Would something like the balm stuff that they use for the snow and ice help protect it? The area around the pool has the coolcrete floor that he walks on to get outside but other than that...

Been away for a while. I had my shoulder surgery right before Easter, it has been harder than I imagined. I have been doing the therapy and it is finally get easier to function. I went with my hubby and son on a trip that was interesting to say the least... We sold a car and bought an offshore...

I usually don't ask for myself but I am nervous this time. After a year of physical therapy and shots in my shoulder they said that I need to have the bone spur removed. The therapy wasn't all of the year but after the first round for bursitis then since Christmas it has been beyond painful with...

Gypsy had her staples removed yesterday. She did great during the removal. It was only the vet and I in there and she relaxed so much that Dr. Kay had a hard time holding up her rear leg to get to the staples lol. Instead of getting her shots I requested that we do another CBC to check her...

I hope that everything comes back good this time. We have been giving her K3 chewables after her platelets and clotting factor were low last time. If all is ok they will spay her today. Of course we are under severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings, not the ideal day, go figure. I got up early...

I don't ask for prayers often but we really need some. My brother-in-laws step-daughter just had her first baby and it's not going well for them right now. After a long labor the baby girl had a bowel movement while she was facing up in the canal. She was born on 3-18-11. I think they got to go...

After looking at Dr. Dodd's site a bit more I'm confused. It says to do the thyroid testing at certain times during the heat cycle. Is that the only time to get an accurate test? I am way tired after only a few hrs of sleep last night so I may not be reading it correctly. I know the thyroid is...

I did have the blood work done before the procedure and it showed that her platelets are low. Her clotting factor which should be around 11 seconds was around 18 seconds. She said that everything else was normal. I hated to but had to ask about cancer. She said that she didn't think so. She said...

I talked with the vet when I took Max in for his check on his foot. She said they usually don't give anything before the anesthesia. I seem to remember absolutely no ACE before the procedure. Is that correct and the only big major no-no?

could be making my mother in law sick like MSG? She is deathly allergic to MSG. It has caused her to lose the lining to her colon and we almost lost her. We know no MSG, yogurt, real sausage, jello and a few other things but now it seems that malt, sugar-free chocolates, and possibly carrageenen...

My heart is pounding! I received an email from our QMA president where I am the track photographer and they need somebody to do the pictures for tonight's big car races. I have no problems getting the pictures during the day but when the sun goes down it is a different story. The hubby has been...

Quick background, My husband is a General Contractor, he is easily frustrated with technology and computers in general. His mom lives with us (ugh), she is 76 and not really good with computers and/or changes but she does the majority of the typing for him. When she moved in and took the typing...
