Ok the more the merrier

What about Coco ?

What about me?

I was out in west Texas and it was extremely dry, I'll never get all the fine powdery dust out of my truck or my sinuses. I was actually missing the humidity.

I'm no longer missing humidity, lol. Two mornings straight of almost 100% so I'm good now.

This picture is from our visit to the vet yesterday. I was hoping Sookie had a stuck egg but found that she has a tumor in her reproductive system. Dr Zoe prescribed meloxicam which I administer twice daily with vitamins. She still eats good but is a little lethargic. It broke my heart to hear we will need to euthanize her at some near point. I remember the day she came home. She was a cute little fuzz ball that the guy at tractor supply gave to Lety because she was the only chick in the store.

Love doesn’t seem to end when we lose our friends. It just seems harder to express that love, when the object of our affection is gone.

Honestly I don’t know how you and Lety get anything done.
If I only crossed a street I had to find air conditioning immediately!

Sorry to be so dumb - but how does it work? Do you feed it some kind of plastic ink?

You aren't dumb, it's a bit complicated actually! It uses a type of filament that looks like thread


It then heats and melts it, then moves around to make the shapes. Like a very complicated hot glue gun but for non sticky plastic.

What jumps out at me is the skin visible, due to the puffiness you describe, which would you say is not so visible normally? The fluffiness can’t cover it as well because it’s stretched out? And you describe jiggling which is not usual (in my limited experience). Soft, yes, but not jiggly.

Hubby thinks she's fat? Because she acts 100% normally, lays eggs, eats, poos, everything. I'm keeping an eye on her and will note if it gets puffier or her comb changes.

How hard is it to get a darn drive belt for my John Deere riding lawnmower tractor !!!
And I had that belt replaced by the factory trained experts. A month ago!
