You cut your hair again!!!
All that long gorgeous hair I would kill for!!!!!!!
Chloe is a DOLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just cut mine today too (still long), and dyed it all dark as the darker hair under the sun-bleached stuff does not snarl as bad when I swim. I wish I had those curls - mine is as straight as hair can be, not even a wave. I've given up on perms, because all they do is fry it, and it is still straight!

Chloe sure is a cutie!

She is a doll, but dont let those long blonde curls and that angelic expression fool you! She's a little devil just like her daddy!

I want Cougar Gold!
It is NOT here!!
can you get me some?
I can paypal you..or is there a way to order it myself?

I saw it at the market in Thorp - was going to get some because I keep hearing how good it is, but I just can't get myself to try canned cheese! Sounds soooo wrong!

Oh but Cougar Gold is SOOOOOO good!!! I have many fond childhood memories of that stuff!

Oh so yummy!

Wow!!!! we didn't freeze here in the Claw. I keep seeing on the weather reports that it is supposed to freeze here, but I must be tucked into a micro climate. So things don't freeze as soon as elsewhere. I still need to think about pulling the geraniums into the greenhouse.

Ohhhh! those nights are the worst. I seem to have a lot of them. I just don't get any Vicodin to take at night.

Things weren't as bad at night before my hips went. I listened to the medical pros, and started to work out at a ladies gym. Next thing I know, I now have bursitis in my hip joints. So far nothing has helped. Every time I sit in the car for even a little bit, it's painful to stand back up, and start to walk again. I now stick to what I have done for years. I stretch often through out the day, and lift bags of feed every once in awhile. lol

We had what I refer to as a soft freeze this morning. Ice on the windows, slightly slick roads, and a very thin layer of ice on the horses water troughs. The birds water didnt freeze as it is under cover, but any water out in the open had a thin sheet of ice. very chilly this morning. I have yet to take blankets off the horses as its just now 40*...

They originally were, back in the 60s way before computers, and I protested & went to farms to see...
They did indeed keep their horses very clean & comfortable.
Since then, the world has changed & now we use "Biodenticals" as 4,3,2,1 has said.
I have to have them (hormones) as I had my Ovs removed years ago.
So, I am looking into the progesterone instead of conjugated estrogens,,,,hope it works for me!
Good luck on your tests & home work!

Estrogen did not work for me...it was my progesterone that was nil. So I am on a progesterone. helps me a lot.

I take the conjugated estrogens. I have found out the hard way that, this is something that make a big difference when I take it. I get sick when ever I try going without.

I found out that the Lyrica that I have been taking is the difference between being able to walk or not. I tried going without that last week.

At least know that something makes a difference.

My poor Big Dog got lost this morning, and I had to show him how to get outside. He almost ran into the door on the way out. This has been getting much worse over the past couple of weeks. I know for sure that he has cataracts. Still Big dog has lived in this house for more than 10 years, he shouldn't be forgetting how to get outside. But I know he is extremely old for a dog his size. I don't think I'm going to be okay when he goes. I love this goofy silly big dog. It doesn't help to know that he will be the last really big dog. He has been the baby of the people family, since he decided that on the way home from the breeder home in April of 1999.

I get 30 Vicodin a year, mostly to use post-injury (as the injuries are inevitable, and unpredictable); it doesn't really help the hip bursitis much, but some nights it's the best I've got.

Last night was the last time I can take acetominophen in any form for a couple weeks: I woke up with a rebound headache this morning and was sick until 11am. Tonight I get to try Naproxen taken with dinner, and see if I can stay asleep on that (it often wears off around 4am); when that and its related NSAIDs muck with my stomach too much I'm stuck with triple-strength Sleepytime Tea for however long it is until it's been two weeks since my last acetominophen, and then the cycle starts over. I don't take any painkillers at all during the day because it just hastens the day when I can't take anything at all until my stomach settles, and that does little to keep me patient and pleasant to be around.

I did order a 40-pair box of handwarmers from Amazon and keep them in my jeans pockets over the bursitis points which helps with that, but also end up wearing my coat in the house a lot. And it doesn't do much for the knee, which is almost all soft-tissue damage and not even a surgical prospect.

Oh, well, afternoon chores call!

justbugged looks like you have a mop with legs. Is that a Komondor?
