I slowed down quite a bit the last month, but I know it's the season change and daylight savings that gets me every time. Poor little Peanut Butter! Adorable...they love to be babied. I hope he heals soon too, that is quite a hefty vet bill. How is the Bravecto btw? I thought about that last spring for the dogs for the flea and tick season, but it required vet visits for each one of them eeek. What are you knitting? I hope my Brussels sprouts grow, I'm testing them in the winter garden, yours look amazing!Rain https://www.blogger.com/profile/14377719049819222133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-32846776954581426572017-11-07T09:26:20.112-05:002017-11-07T09:26:20.112-05:00Here's hoping that both of you get well soon.Here's hoping that both of you get well soon.Theresa Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226952474166295533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-71119291597602360892017-11-07T00:10:17.810-05:002017-11-07T00:10:17.810-05:00You bring back vivid memories of living with a dox...You bring back vivid memories of living with a doxie . . . and why I've told Rick we canNOT get another one until Brian is grown up and gone!

I may take my own advice this winter, mainly because the doc told me to and I'm a teensy bit afraid of her, wonderful though she is.

We did rule out spinal injury (thank goD), but he is so pathetic, with his tottering little gait. I am all for curling up on the couch until this all blows over!

The animals at the shelter will love it.<br /><br />Our poultry has been going after cabbage leaves the way yours has gone after the Brussels sprout remains. Very jealous of your luscious looking sprouts as we got nary a one this year. Have no idea what happened except that where there were supposed to be sprouts on the stalk, all I got were frilly little flower-like formations. Bah.<br /><br />Your doctor visit was, indeed, not the norm. As far as having to wait and wait and wait I mean. Did the doctor give you an idea of what might be ailin' ya?<br /><br />And what about PB. What did the vet say about him? I think you both should curl up either on the couch or in bed for about a month!<br /><br />Like the coloration of your Green Thang (sock). I have two different pairs going at the moment. Aqua colored for me and I finally caved and have started a pair for this man I live with. His is a pretty black/navy blend.<br /><br />Those are the last of your onions you brought in? Girl, you have got to grow more onions! As I went through 10 or 12 of mine (okay, three or four) this weekend I was thinking it would cost me millions (maybe less) to purchase all of them I use during a year's time.<br /><br />Let us know how both you and the pooch are getting along this week.
