Me too only not the dog walking. But no more sling and I'm so happy! After not being able to use my right arm for 6 weeks, it's actually a treat to be restricted to only only lifting the weight of a water bottle.

Long time no chat! I haven’t been active on BYC for months now. Anyone know of any affordable places to get frozen de@d mallards or pheasants? I have a 6 month old duck dog I just started doing field clinics with. So I need birds to practice with.

Used to have English Setters. We just used a wing or tail of a bird.
What kind of dogs are you training.

Regarding meetings/appointments… 3 last week, 4 this week (including a 2 hour one today), and a team meeting next week. Then my physical coming up in a few weeks. And the second MRI though I might see if I can change it.

At the allergy dr having my allergy shot.

I'm getting my shots in my scalp, neck, and top of shoulders area tomorrow. Let's hope our shots work.
I'm thinking poor Bronwyn may end up needing shots for her allergies someday. She gets it bad too.

I went through that with Tom for a while. Then the day came where he just wasn't able to make a decision. I had to swap roles with him. I became the head of the house and it was really hard to do. I have to make those decisions for him and I hate it.

It's really hard.

He's sitting here next to me so I asked him. He says that if people don't have problems, it's not necessary to wait, but if a patient was having problems getting used to progressive lenses he suggested they try their new lenses after a good night's sleep. Sleep causes your brain to do a bit of a reset. He can't scientifically explain it or why it works but it does seem to work.

First time I had progressives it took me about 3 weeks to get used to them and I got up one morning after a good night's sleep, put them on and no more problems. quien sabe? Who knows. Sometimes things just work because they do.

Our morning started out with a bang at 5:AM. Our 25 year old diabetic kitty's blood sugar was running 'high' which on our glucometer means it is over 600. He followed DH out to the kitchen and jumped up on the island while he loaded up his insulin and gave it to him along with some food, he nibbled the food, laid down on his side as was 75% 'out of it'. DH got me up. I checked him over, heart was a bit fast but regular, breathing fine, he was just mostly unconscious.
I stood petting him us both thinking that this was it for him and I told him we weren't ready for him to go. Who was going to aggravate me stealing food from the other cats if he was gone? About that time he let out a MEOW! and woke up, got up and was sitting beside his food bowl looking a bit like, 'what happened?' Within 10 minutes he was happily chowing down and mostly back to his old self.

I told DH that I knew what was wrong with him at that point. He was having a hyperglycemic crisis. The insulin was kicking in and he was back to normal now.

Nothing like starting out the morning with a medical crisis.

Thank you.
