I was able to speak with my sil and she is suspecting a slipped disc because it came on so suddenly and suggested they get the dog to an emergency vet asap. I gave my sister the phone number for for the emergency room at UW Madison's vet school, a phone number for a board certified neurologist...

Would it get too warm in summer? Before we moved up here, we had a pole barn built and stayed in a well insulated 10' x 20' room. It did not take much to heat it in winter (we used coleman lanterns while we were awake and a ready heater when we went to bed) and it did not drop much below...

I have never met the dog. Most pugs I have met have been little butterballs. I am not sure what english bull dogs look like. I am just getting as much info for my sister asap. Boyfriend's mother sounds like she may die of worry over her pup. I actually tried to get a hold of my sil since...

My sister just called. Her boyfriend was ready to call 911 yesterday for his mom because she is so distraught causing her to have seizures. Yesterday morning her pug/english bulldog mix was sleeping in the closet, which he never does. He normally sleeps in the bed with her. He was having...

We have the one dog who is not phased by hot pepper. We originally purchased "Rap Last" pepper spray for our bridge girl, Scarlett, who underwent radiation on her leg for cancer. The only thing that kept her away from the resulting burn was to spray down the arm of a long-sleeved t-shirt with...

I have to ask - What does a wool dryer ball do? Thanks, Annette

Have you ever thought of doing a CUR (Canine Underground Railroad) run? Here is a link to a blog with information on CURs: http://beingstray.com/dogs/canine-underground-rescue-transport-sites/ It would be cheaper than flying if it can be arranged. I participated in one many years ago (GUR -...

Thanks for all the info. For now everything is acting normal with the service. If my allowance starts getting used up for unexplainable reasons again, I am going to buy a new router. When we first moved up here, we had Wildblue and we hated it. We were always losing service no matter what...

Do any of you have Hughesnet satellite internet? If so, what has your experience been? I have hardly been on today and I looked at my download allowance and it is telling me that I have exceeded my limit. I have been having router problems. I don't know if there is a connection with that...

It was up here. We had thunder, lightening, sleet, hail, rain and snow.

I am an extrovert. And after a winter by myself 70% of the time (no job and husband works away from home and is only home on weekends) with only a cat and dog to talk to, I am going stir crazy! My excitement for today was having the sump pump pipe come apart over 1/2 the basement Hopefully...

And I just came in from digging out the hose that directs the sump water away from the house. Last thing I need is for the sump pump pipe to freeze up.

I am still snowed in. I am waiting for the snow to quit, then I will call our plow guy. Our problem is that we are in the middle of a farm field with no wind break and we just drift close. All the snow collects between the house, garage and pole barn. There is a drift about 1 1/2 feet deep...

Didn't know they still made those. I have one that belonged to my mom and she had to have bought it about 40 years ago.

Could you just cut bands from your homemade paper and print labels on label stickers that would also keep the bands wrapped around the soap?

We haven't made syrup in a while. Last time we did cook it down on the stove and it didn't take all that long. Depending on you trees and how much sugar is in the sap, it can be 40 gallons of sap to 1 gallon of syrup. My sil taps 2 - 3 trees by her house and she cooks it down on her kitchen...

I have a Welbilt model ABM4800 that I bought at a thrift store in town for $5.00. It works really well for us. I generally make only wheat bread with no white flour added and the breads rise well for me. I don't bake as much bread as I would like to since Roy has been working 90 miles west of...

One of these days (always procrastinating) I will get one of those kits. Our fenced in yard is a bit off because of all the granite. Try to dig a post hole, hit granite. Move over a bit, hit granite.

I am not sure if is the right place to post this question. If it needs to go somewhere else, please let me know. My sister is setting up an account on Etsy to sell her hand-engraved glass (jars, vases, etc). She finally has her banner (I guess she had some problems with it) done. She is...

I think they are smart smart kitties and we are dumb humans. They have us trained very well:lol: Annette
