How true. And I wonder if more smokers would be able to quit if they actually could take 'rehab time' off for a week or two, so they could make it through the initial withdrawal and not have to function.
And some of the drugs out there to help quit list headache and mood swings as side effects, as if one needs more of that when trying to break the nicotine craving!

good news
Drache, my PI king, appears to be well again
I'm not sure I posted about his abscess and he daily batrin injections and mouth swabbings he so hated
anyway
he was still a little puffy after the course of treatment, but since he had had a huge swelling before, leaving the area distended, and was obviously going to shed, I wanted to wait until after the shed to see whether he needed another round of antibiotics - whatever it was that worked on the culture
he shed today and there isn't even any of the residual puffiness that was still there before the shed
I'm so glad, he's all well

Getting cloudy eyes again, at 183 grams. Minus a partly digested mouse.

wow
talk about a growth spurt

I'm pretty sure it's not really in length and if it's in width, I really can't tell.

Lulu I couldn't help but think of you when I saw this The revolutionary mirror that lets women see if their bum really does look big | the Daily Mail

My damn e-mail server is still down! So frustrating, it's been over a week now and all I get are apologies. I just want it fixed!

[drache]

a week - that's way long
are you using snail mail in the meantime?
doesn't England have the best postal service in the world? or is that also a thing of the glorious past?

And WHY am I up at 4-something am? Well, glad you asked...

Because my good neighbor awoke me at 3 am to let me know my horses were up at her place!!!! Aaaaaaaargh! !!!!! I had let them out to graze-- closed the gate at the top of our drive as always. Been doing this ever since I got horses-- letting them out to wander the yard and up and down the drive to graze. Well, apparently, Gunny (the wild mustang) caught wind of the gelding and two mares she has (one is in raging heat) and he led everyone around the gate by going down thru the woods and up to her house-- again thru the woods-- and her house is right on the road. Thank god tho they were only interested in her horses and never went to the road.

The donkeys stayed here. I love the donkeys.

My neighbor and her husband had lead ropes on two of my guys and were leading the whole lot of them back to my house. I am praying that her horses are ok (they were runnng around in their tiny paddock like crazy; her fences aren't done yet.) She hasn't called back tonite to say anything is wrong but I'll check with her first thing. One of her horses is a high dollar show horse, so please don't let anything be wrong with that one!!!

And I have horses.... why????? Snakes are good... even when they escape they don't generally cause too much damage... lol

Sounds like too much work to me! Hope your neighbours horses are alright.
