Weenies. I have three dachshounds, and three mutts. One would easily win the ugliest dog contest with eyes that sort of bulge out, bowed legs in the front, longer legs in the back, one canine tooth missing and a severe underbite. He is 65 pounds and with his disproportioned leg length, "bucks" and spins when he get a zap of energy sort of like a baby elephant. Then there is a shepard mix who was abused and "found" me. I had to trap him but now he is practically a lap dog (all 60 pounds of him). Lastly, there is Abby. A very petite and femine poodle/terrier mix who is deaf and frail. I cared for my mom for 6 years after her stroke and this was her dog. Never left my moms side and would sit under my moms wheelchair looking at me at my "circus pack" of dogs with a disgusted look.
Your cat sounds so cool, especially the huge one that growls. Yeah my son's daddy was allergic and when I was going to split up with him I have to admit I was thinking "Yes! Now I can get a cat!" . Well I got 2 only to discover both my sons were allergic. My older son outgrew it and has a cat of his own now but my younger one still reacts.
I hope you are feeling better! Take good care of yourself.
If you are reading this, how are you feeling??
And D..my email is ***@****
email me anytime...if I see an email i don't recognize, i'll open it to see if its u
Sorry to hear you are ill. I wish you a speedy recovery and I love the stories about your cat. I love cats but have a son who is allergic so I ended up with 6 dogs instead. They are my babies.
Take care of yourself.
I am so sorry to hear that you are still feeling like ****! Last time, a few years ago, that I had an ear infection ( which I think you said you have), I just remember the doctor telling me " The pain from an ear infection will bring a grown man to his knees", and she was right!! Glad you are still in bed!
We're having a very quiet Memorial Day weekend...my parents are at their beach house at the Cape, but we couldn't go because I had a wedding Sat. Just been playing outside with son and his new tent, lol!
So you mentioned you are on....was it vicodin...right now? How are you doing with that? Taking as needed, or a few extra?
Well this oughta make ya laugh...out of the blue today, my 2.5 year old son looked at me and told me I was a "silly bi*ch"!!!!!!!!!!! I have no clue where he got that from!!! We don't swear around him, and of course I don't think it's "cool" that my toddler swore ( for all the people who might jump on me for thinking it funny) but it caught me by surprise so much so that all I could do was stare!! I ignored it, so he wouldn't get the attention for saying it, but when I got downstairs to hubby, I busted out laughing so hard!!! The stuff kids come out with!!! We were playing cars, and I was making vrooom vrooom sounds and making the cars dance, and he literally just looked up at me, smiled, and clear as can be said " Mama, you're a silly bi*ch"! Oh boy. He must have heard a friend say that, or heard it from a kid at a play date or art class or something! My God, lol!!!
I am severely allergic to cats also. Blood allergy tests are rated from 1-6 (6 being the worst) I am a 5 to some trees, grasses, and pollens and a 6 to cats! I used to have 2 chows when I was little-birthday present from my grandfather. A really good friend of mine has two chows, and his mom is in the hospital so he's watching her two babies also (he's a stock broker, when he's out of town I'm mommy lol) His mom's two are a siberian huskie (Katie) and an arctic wolf (Kira) both pure breeds.
Thank you so much for the kind thoughts, what type of dogs do you have? And how old? Al lot of pet owners who are allergic will adapt to their pet's specific dander over time. I have adapted some but not completely, it's not like I can tell anyway, my allergies are always acting up. I used to have a boa constrictor and a gila monster too. I'm working on another snake right now. Her name was Malice, she used to wrap herself around me inside my shirt when it was cold and only stick her little head out of the top of my sweater, I miss her like MAAADDD!!

It's quiet here too. My parents are @ our home in London. Who got married this weekend?? YOu have no idea the things I have to hold in my laugh about that baby does, and sometimes I just can't, I'll try to leave the room but it comes out anyway-busting up laughing and that gets hubby started and that really gets me going! It's a vicious cycle lol I'm taking vicoprofen, as prescribed, I usually take it once a month during my period. And my tussionex I always take as prescribed unless I'm sick. It isn't therapeutic when I'm this sick at its normal dose, my docs know how much I take when I'm sick (approximately 2 extra tsp. a day). Tylenol is too dam* toxic, I won't take vicodin or norcos. The guaifenesen with sudafed is what's REALLY helping. That's my miracle drug when I get sick, I get panicky if I start running out of that stuff, always make sure I have a few bottles with refills on hand. That stuff clears the sinuses, ears and lungs right out! It's awesome on planes, sinus pressure is literally a thing of the past as long as I have that. It is moving into my lungs, that usually happens. I get sinus, ear, and lower respiratory infections constantly. Once it gets to my lungs I have to start taking advair and albuterol and oral prednisone. yay!! My sinuses will be cleared up in a couple weeks but my lungs will take over a month. I have a feeling I'm going to end up on Tequin again. If it was up to hubby, he already wants to start me on cipro, but as far as my lungs go it won't matter. It's already in my lungs days before it shows symptoms. I have upped my dose of anytibiotics though so we'll see how that goes through the rest of the evening. Hubby's BBQing, so I'm getting ready to eat soon and go back to sleep, you'll recognize my e-mail...trust me!!

I'm pretty much just awake to eat so ...about 7 times a day lol...honestly though I do eat about that many times a day. How has everything been going? Anything new and exiting this memorial day weekend?? I know Lady Sundown has something very new and exiting w/ her new grandchild.
