Yeah, maybe we need to duct tape my feets to a board and stick me in a cup to my armpits too?

You oughta see the black huge bruises on my back...wow.
Looks like I was in a car wreck!
I'll tell people who ask what happened, that I was bull riding, and landed badly & then was gorged in the back....

Okay, maybe I missed where you told us...or maybe not enough coffee yet....

....but have you seen a doctor yet? http://bestsmileys.com/medical/3.gif

and if yes you have what did they say? Did you totally tear the menisicus or the ACL? We have a titanium knee brace if you need it. It is a good one....it bends. DH tore his ACL totally a few summers ago.

You okay? You being honest with us? How much of that hooch are you having to use as pain control? Do you need anything (not really sure what I can do - but I will try).

Take up sewing or get your painting out..anything to keep you sitting still for awhile.

Yuppers I am telling the whole truth, ceptin for the BULL.

I have appt Monday @ 1:00 PM in Tumwater with the Olympia Orthopaedics Associates.
Miniscus is completely torn, legaments on the inside of the knee are shot, again.
The outside is probably OK, enterior is questional, and the thigh muscle on the outside which runs to the hip, is torn from the knee, again.
I can barely move the knee cap, it is floating around in all postions.
And it does not hurt so bad..unless I pivot, then you will hear me scream from where you are.
OK, gotta go elevate again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ick !!! we are supposed to be traveling to Canada; usually we leave midday Thursday, overnight in Bellingham, then get to Whistler about "check in time" (4 PM)

MAYBE this year we ought to change our itinerary a little bit, as I have NO idea how well the Yaris will do in snow

I am assuming that the road will be plowed and sanded, I better check to see when the ski area opens; usually we are there the week BEFORE that happens

Anyone want a 6 year old Cockatiel?! Some one take him before he screams his way right out my window!!!

DD has been a turd all morning, the new coffee pot is malfunctioning, the bird is screaming right behind my ear, and all three of my dogs refuse to shut up!!!

I need to go back to bed!

Well I will try not to come across as too harsh. But you are that birds flock and to send it to a new family will be very traumatic. I know they can be annoying at times just like kids. It's kind of like would you just send Chloe off with strangers (seriously). They may (any) be called pets but they are really dependent family members who we each commited to when we took them home.

PETS ARE FOR EVER !!!

Cheryl I hope I didn't hurt any feelings as that is not my intention but people getting rid of pets is a one of my hot topics.

I think Chickie is all confuzzled in her pain. I think she must mean the one we had at Monroe. I don't remember anything down here last year. Heck we barely had a micro flock back then.

Getting rid of pets is not something to do lightly, but sometimes it needs to be done. Most animals will be happy, after a period of adjustment, with anyone who treats them kindly.

Obviously, dumping pets is wrong under any circumstances.
