She's adorable... chuckling over her "naughtiness" ---

Do you think she was just upset about missing you? Poor "Baby!"

Your dog is so cute. That is a quick way of getting to feel better. I have two little dogs that are my best friends, so I know how your worry was about her. Thank goodness she is OK now. Deb

Thumbs up

I have three wonderdogs and they are going to be in kennels or good friends' care (3 is alot to drop on any one friend!) for the 14 days I am post op .. *I* will be at my parents house during that time... I know I will miss them and be eager to get back to walking them and loving them... but I also "don't know" how much or how soon I will be able to care for them... and so the plan outlined above...

I am glad it all worked out with you and your pooch!

Default Dog pics, life changes

I lovethe dog pics. My brother has yorkies and we all love them. My granddaughter functioned as my motivation to get off the couch and quit whining. She's 4 and lived with us for two years with her mom - so we are close. It really does help to have something besides ourselves to think about. - especially someone who needs us.

I have been buying some new clothes too. I had to keep taking them back after trying them on until I got some that were small enuf. I've only lost 30pounds so far, but it sure changed my clothing size. Until a couple days ago, I still thought of myself as looking just like I did last summer. But at the swimming pool, I noticed that I could stand up from a squat using only one hand to push (instead of both hands and my knees). I an ALMOST cross my legs, too!

My husband is always saying how sorry he feels for me because I can't eat things that he is eating. That I can't have food at the County Fair, at the Mall, at the family potluck, etc. HOWEVER, IF I HADN'T HAD THE SURGERY, I would have surely eaten at all those functions - and still be FAT. And even tho I get MAD, wanting to eat, THAT PASSES, but being fat does NOT. Being thinner feels too good.

Keep going.

The vet said she had gastroenteritis. They didn't even give her antibiotics. But the anti-nausea meds and the subcutaneous liquid sure did help!

Honestly, I doubt it. She loves her grandma just as much as she loves me!
