My yard is full of dead things in various stages of decay. Also plenty of pup poop from the neighbour's dog.

Note to self: If ever invited to Jess's place, refrain from stepping into her back yard.. ......

OK.....WTH is a jumper?......cuz around here, it's a sleeveless dress with no waistline that requires a shirt...usually turtleneck...to be worn underneath it.

BTW.....I happen to like sweaters!.

:lol: Lisa, I take it you haven't seen Bridget Jones's Diary? Very educational :D

Jumpers are what Brits call sweaters :)

:vomitvomitvomitvomitvomitvomitface:

All in all, a disgusting gardening experience. Must be more careful and more watchful of dead rodents and nutty, soft, poo.

I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.....

GROSS!!!!!!

Must think happy pleasant thoughts! HAPPY PLEASANT THOUGHTS!!!!!

Didn't mean to leave you hanging!!

I'm just not sure if it's a done deal and didn't want to get everyone's hopes up until I knew more.......it's a blonde cocker spaniel, male, almost 4 yrs old. Friend's of a friend can't keep it anymore because one of their teenagers has asthma and has become allergic to him, so they are looking for a good home to take him in.

Didn't exactly want another cocker (I lost my cocker 2 yrs ago) they can sometimes be feisty and I have 3 little nieces, but it needs to be rescued so we will see if it will be a good fit.

I have been thinking a lot lately about getting another dog, haven't really been ready until now, and then this came up.....maybe it is meant to be!

I'll be watching Patti :D . Someone else is joining the cast too but I can't recall.........is it Lucy Lui??

Good morning, Sillies!

A doggy treadmill .. . . .I have oft thought of such a thing, especially when living through our winters and now having TWO big dogs that need daily exercise. How great that would be to line them up on a treadmill, hit "start', and come back in a half-hour. . . . . ..

I'd have to hang a li'l stuffed squirrel off the front of the machine.. . . :rolleyes:

....but at least I wouldn't have to keep flipping the toaster up again and again. . . ...

Yeah Nikki . . . we don't have room for horses jumpers. We have a spare bedroom and all . . . but I'm pretty sure it's against the Home Owners Association rules.

Premature excitement AND cocker glee here too :D

Sillies- I do not think it is pink eye- I woke up with a clear eye- completely. I took a shower and then had to run to the eye dr to drop something off. Even the woman there said it didnt look like pink eye. I get home and it was starting to get a little itchy and now its red and irritated again. Fine till I got in the shower and thats when I had trouble last time.....Its an allergy to something, but nothing has changed in my shower--no new soaps or detergants nothing. I still have not put a contact into that eye but what to do next?

Amanda--maybe an "outdoor" allergy? They're pretty bad this year--people who aren't normally bothered by them are having problems. Both Mark and I have had itchy eyes the last couple of weeks. Have you rubbed your eye more than normal? Been outside in the wind?

One of my eyes is much more itchy than the other (the one with the eczema) so it may not affect both eyes equally. Just thinkin.

Quite impressive squirrels you have there Nikki :lol:

You know now that I think about it I haven't seen many squirrels here where I live, lots and lots of birds, and groundhogs, a few fox, but NO squirrels :huh: I also live in a gated community so maybe there is something to that.......the squirrels can't figure out the code to get in!!

Amanda, that's crazy about your eye. Definitely doesn't sound like pink eye if you woke up with it completely normal. Must be some type of allergy :huh:

:blink: indeed - well, I had to scrutinize and inspect the dead rat, could not see any injuries or wounds (Annie does pounce on things in her sport back there), so I think it ate some of Stepford's poison. Just very happy Annie doesn't even dead things...... :unsure:

or does she? I never saw the decomposing dead rat there, and that's a bed I phrequently weed.......

those pets on treadmills. :lol: Weez might enjoy that. Tika would have had a nervous breakdown. :lol:

Hi Sillies- I made an appt with MY dr for 12:45. My eye is almost clear again- just a slight redness. Patti it does itch now and then but not like the got itch, itch, itch deal. It has to be an alergy or maybe a cold in my eye or something but it sure isnt pink eye---I know it in my heart it isnt pink eye....you know how deep down you have that feeling....well I have that feeling....

I am awaiting a maint. man to come fix our dishwasher....it is giving off a nasty odor....eww!

You know something? I have a very strong suspicion that they also know what the problem is with Amanda's eye.. . . . ....

I'll get back to you Amanda . .. gonna try to communicate with one of the little guys out back. :huh::lol:

Emily, you need this:

OMG. . .. there actually IS a treadmill specifically for dogs. So indicative of the state of our society - - Cannot manage to take your dog out for a bit of walking exercise? No problem! Stay inert and inside. .. . we can sell you a machine that will do it all for you! <_<

Loved the dog and cat together on the treadmill. .. . .what a beautiful Maine Coone. I WANT ONE!

(Annie does pounce on things in her sport back there), so I think it ate some of Stepford's poison. Just very happy Annie doesn't even dead things......

Mygawd. . . . . ..Stepford puts out poison? She just gets more and more frightening. . ..... :rolleyes::lol:

      Thanks for the thoughtful comment.

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!
