I think I got bit by a spider.

Eeek! What kind of spider?

Thanks for this info. I'm about to do a shuffle, as I'm done breeding for the year.

Yep, goofy and tired sums it up haha. We’re hammering out the kinks and I’m doing a lot better, we can pretty accurately predict the seizures at this point so it’s not so bad.
I just really really miss driving.

Have you thought about a seizure detection companion dog?

I actually have no idea if it’s a spider bite lol. It’s just a big painful red lump on my ankle that appeared overnight.

We’ve talked about it. I would absolutely love a seizure alert dog but we don’t have the money, and my diagnosis is still a little vague and uncertain, so.. maybe in the future.

Because I was asked...here are a few photos of artwork.
3D is 3 dimensional art...sculpture, pottery, as opposed to flat work like drawings or paintings which are 2D.
My Marlboro Man, pottery - handbuilt and wheel thrown, a Dying Swan ballerina, and a lifesize head.
The sculpture and pottery is stoneware clay. The red burnished pot is Oklahoma red clay.

And some 2D - an acrylic painting and three graphite drawings. The 28 X 35 inch painting of "Hoare Frost" was from an old calendar. The owl was from a photo and the portraits are my daughter and an old friend before she died... Una Alice was 90 when this 18" x 24" portrait was done from a photo. That was over 35 years ago.

On pencil work/graphite I always told my students to try to get at least 10 values or shades ranging from black to white. And a sharp eraser is a great drawing tool for removing thin wisps of hair and feather.
