You can also get pet shampoo for white dogs. I was just reading on the Silkie thread and they use that. I think they called it bright and white.

So you use that instead of bluing?

I just want to say a big thank you for all the nice comments about my homemade bunny cage, and the drying mats.

I bought the drying mats at the Bonney Lake Fred Meyer's Store. I would think that all the Fred Meyer's Stores should carry them.

See just one more reason I will NEED to steal yours. We don't have a Fred Meyer here!

Well, cool! When I get closer to the date, I'll get in contact with ya. I'll be looking for some scrap metal to bring with me, too, as I'm working on fall clean-up.

Those in areas that surround Auburn (Enumclaw, Bonney Lake, Sumner, Fed Way, Kent, Covington), I'm looking for a music store that can repair a couple of clarinets. Any recommendations? The only music store that I know of is in Tacoma.

I got an awesome deal at a garage sale in Eastern WA - I bought two clarinets for $15.00 each!

They need new corks and reeds. But, other than that, they should be good. I need to get one fixed right away. We're trying to get our 5th grader into band.

I've got a chicken outside singing an egg song. I wonder if ya'd call that sad sounding song "Country Music".

I haven't heard of 5 HTP. I have tried valerian and it didn't really do anything, and I definitely have tried melatonin. I can get to sleep just fine, but if I wake up after 4 or 5 hours, I can't get back to sleep. My Dr. recommended somethiing that I could take at that time and not feel weird or groggy. I may look into 5 HTP.
Thanks!

5 htp is actually a precursor of tryptophan,melatonin, seratonin, it isn't the same thing. (your body uses it to make tryptophan) It is used as a more natural substitute for SSRI's (seratonin reuptake inhibitors: antidepressants like prozac, celexa, etc). It makes some people tired and makes some people completely WIRED. If you have taken an SSRI and know that 'too tired to sleep, semi conscience all night' feeling, you may have the same reaction from 5-htp. Too much of it can also cause severe GI disturbance, similar to Lexapro and Celexa. Start with a low dose (25 mg, the bottle will probably tell you to take 100-200mg). If you don't have a negative reaction after a couple of days, work your way up to a higher dose.

If you are on any ssri's, talk to your p-doc before taking 5htp because it can cause seratonin syndrome--an overdose of seratonin, which can be deadly.
