    Saw my 1st tornado today...

    I used to live in the midwest. I went through my share of tornados. They're scary. I remember in kindergarten having to run from the school bus into the school. I couldn't breath because the wind was so strong. The rain was going sideways and hail was pelting us in the face. It was horrible. Now...

    pomeranians - really evil?

    I was attacked one time by a shiba in a petsmart. I was walking past minding my own business and the lunged at me and grabbed my hand. I had four bite wounds and had to go to the hospital. I still have the scars...My former boss also had a shiba that she had to lock up any time people came over...

    pomeranians - really evil?

    LOL...I was thinking the same thing. I used to groom full time. Now I have another job, but I still do grooming occasionally on the side. From my experience, poms are awful to groom. They are yappy and bitty and won't sit still. I'm somewhat of a perfectionist and try to groom the dog to look...

    What was your first pet?

    That's how we ended up with three little guinea pigs..lol. I got two guinea pigs when I was about 10. I was so proud of myself because I saved up and bought them with my own money. The petshop told us they were both females. We didn't know any different. OPPS!! Then we learned what to look for...

    What was your first pet?

    I grew up with dogs ever since I was born, but none that I could say were mine, they belonged to the whole family. The first pet I had when I was a kid was a box turtle. His name was Herman. I got him when I was five or six and he was around for along time..I think I was 21 when he died. He was...

    Maybe I'm just being a baby...

    Too, funny!!!! I agree with the dog idea. It will help with the loneliness too. Sometimes it helps if you look at things a different way. Be greatful your husband has a job, alot of people don't. Maybe he could go to sleep earlier, like when he gets home in the morning, and then get up a...

    How to deal with drinking problems??

    Melissa, I know what you're going through. My husband was a binge drinker. He wouldn't drink every day, but when he did, he would drink way too much. A few times he ended up in the hospital. It was very stressful on our marriage. Once he started drinking, he couldn't stop. It would go on for...

    He's coming home!

    Have a great two weeks! I grew up in a military family and remember the times I was so excited when my dad was coming home. His last deployment was during the first gulf war. I worried so much about him, and he was my dad. I couldn't imagine my husband being gone for so long. Good luck and have...

    Critical Care

    I have an unopened bag (pouch, whatever you want to call it) of Critical Care that I keep around just in case I need it. It has an expiration date on it of 09/2010. Does anyone know if it still works after the expiration date. It's unopened, hasn't been used. I know some things have expiration...

    Issue with Neighbor

    If i were you, I'd talk to the landlord about it. You don't want whatever he is spraying to make you or your pets sick. You can at least ask to make sure he is using something that is pet safe.

    Anyone in the South Jersey/Philadelphia Area that could give me a hand?

    Nobody close enough, no. We just moved to the area not to long ago, haven't really had time to make friends. I know it sounds bad, but we've both been busy with work and everything, by the time we get home we just want to relax, we don't feel like going out or really talking to anyone. I know...

    Anyone in the South Jersey/Philadelphia Area that could give me a hand?

    Does anyone live in the South Jersey/Philadelphia area that wants to make a few extra bucks?

He's doing alot better then he...

He's doing a little better now, but i'm still very worried about him. We've had so many problems lately....I love...

    MRSA

    The doctor at the ER referred me to an infection disease doctor. I reminded him that I had no insurance and asked if he had any ideas of where i could go. He came up with nothing. Basically walked out and said have a nice day. The county health department has a communicable disease clinic but...

    MRSA

    I haven't been on Vancomycin yet. Bactrim has seemed to work, up until now. I have a lesion on my hip that hasn't started draining yet. My foot is swollen, red and very painful. It's draining pus. (not to be gross, sorry) I went to the hospital a month ago for it and was put on Bactrim again...
