LOL! :D LOL! :D

Helen says "hurry up"!!!! :) She's more worried about the bloodwork that has to be done the week before the surgery than she is the surgery itself!!! Ha Ha!!! Surgery is the 28th. My little girl will have the best possible care, only I can't get Sandra to come down here and help me nurse her!!

Mental Note: Do not let Aly be in a situation where she might see any homeless doggies while in Texas!

No we will not tour any Rescue Shelters while in Texas!:D :D

Isn't it wonderful to know though that someone loves you and wants to make sure you are okay? Sounds like Sandra just wants to give you some motherly loving and care giving! I think it's great!

And Aly.... I have to have all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out but I have been procrastinating because I'm a big baby too! Actually I'm afraid I will lose all my Wisdom if they are taken out! LOL :rolleyes:

Boy do I miss out when I can't visit Pet Talk during the work day, and I am too busy after work to do much, if any posting :eek: .

Aly, I sure hope your strep clears up. I had it SOOOOO bad as a little girl but, thank goodness the antibiotics finally worked and it cleared up and I got to keep my tonsils.

Sandra, you're so sweet to care about your fellow Pet Talkers like you do :) You are very, very sweet :)

Logan...tell Helen that she'll be in my thoughts and prayers. She is more brave then I :) She'll be fine.

Candy, I tell you, I am the worlds biggest wimp ever when it comes to pain. I am phobic of shots in general, and it does not matter how small they are, or where they are inserted in my body....I am PHOBIC! I can't even watch needles being inserted in humans on TV, or when I visit my family in the hospital I have to ask them to cover the IV with a sheet or blanket. I have actually been thinking about talking to a psychiatrist because my fear of needles is SO bad, but at this point, I have not made any plans to treat that horrendous fear of mine. Anyway, there is a point to this, and it's not just to share my extreme fear issues :) About 1 and 1/2 years ago I went to the dentist because a tiny corner of a tooth began to poke out of my gum. I was so scared, I had only heard horrible stories about people getting their wisdom teeth removed so I was beyond terrified to even get the consult. The consult only worsened my fears because, after x-raying my mouth, they found that all 4 of my wisdom teeth were impacted and were growing sideways, instead of down. They had to be taken out under IV sedation and they had to be taken out by an oral surgeon.

Anyway, after nearly a month of terror, I finally decided that either I had it done, or I have to possibly deal with all of the teeth that those wisdom teeth destroyed. They had to come out and I had to have IV sedation. The oral surgeon's office was great, and they gave me enough Valeum and laughing gas before they inserted the IV to prevent me from having a heart attack :rolleyes:

Long story long (I tried to make it short, honest :) ) I had all 4 wisdom teeth cut out and it was SO much easier then I ever thought it would be. I hear horror stories but, honestly, coming from the worlds biggest wimp, it was not bad AT ALL, and all of mine were pretty badly impacted so it should have been alot worse then normal wisdom tooth removal, but it was not bad. The worst part was the month of terror, knowing that I would have a needle stuck in my arm to sedate me, and the pain killers they had me on gave me terrible stomache cramping so I had to switch to extra strength tylonel which wasn't very strong.

Hehehehe :) Now everyone knows my embarressing little secret of needle fear :)

Aly it certainly does appear that Reece is just fine! :D :D Poor little Lolly! Good thing that you know who the Nawtee Dog was or her actions might have led you to believe she was the guilty one. She sounds like such a sweetheart and Reece of course is just a character! Haven't heard a good NAWTEE DOG TALE out of anyone lately and this sure put a smile on my face! :)

I hope the antibiotic has started to help making you feel a little better. I don't know about Texas, but around here absolutely everyone is sick (common colds, upper respiratory infections, croup, etc., etc.,) It has been a goofy winter weather-wise so maybe that's it. Tomorrow it is supposed to hit 74 degrees around here (unheard of in early March! :eek: ) and by the end of the weekend it will be in the 40's again. Keep takin' that medicine and get lots of sleep. :)

I ALLWAYS have horrible throat colds... i was born with Alergic Bronchitis? or somethign like that... i get it every year then that normally turns into tolisitis..... bleh it sucks majorly! ive got used to it thouhg! glad reece man is doing well.

I asked Reece if he did it and he started running in circles

LOL :) LOL :D LOL :cool: LOL

The image in my head of Reece doing that is SOOOOOO FUNNY!!!!!!!:D :D

Sara - Reece definately keeps a smile on my face. He's a laugh a minute even when he's being NAWTEE!

Candy - Yes, I love Sandra!!! She's my savior. I'd be sending her frantic messages about 10 times a day probably if I didn't think I'd drive her crazy. She always makes me feel much better :D

Leslie - I used to have the same fear as you but now I give myself 3 shots a day and I'm absolutely fine with it. Of course when I get a blood test I can't look. If I catch a glimpse of it, I almost faint.

I totally missed this post. Aly you never said a word while I was instant messaging you!
I am sorry I am late but very glad that little Reece is feeling just fine. And I hope you are feeling better!

Sorry Staci! I thought you knew.

Now Aly, I better be hearing that you're feeling better!!! Are you taking your medicine?????? I want a report!:D And Aly, you are my dream patient! I work wonders with the pleading, needy ones!!;) Now I know where your deep sense of compassion and empathy for all living creatures come from! You know what it's like to feel SkaReD!!! And Aly, I'm counting on you to give those babies, Reece, Lolly and Shiloh, lots of kisses and huggies. I MEAN IT!!:)

In her former life, Sandra was a mean old school teacher.....NOT!!!! :p

YES Logan! You remember!! And you, of course, were my STAR pupil!!:)

Yup I've been taking my medicine Nurse Sandra! I feel better, but am not totally over it yet. Its hard to get better with the high stress level of my job and its stressful at home now too because I'm taking this tiny 8 yr old Chihuahua through heartworm treatment praying she won't die. She'll actually start the treatment tomorrow and I'll have her on bed rest for 3 months at my house because we're doing slow kill.
