Mindless Tuesday . . . It is Tuesday, isn't it??? Deb W.

Glenda - I didn't know about the station closing either but I'm very sorry to hear that. I hope that another opportunity appears very soon for you guys.

My allergies are really awful this morning and I didn't bring any Claritin. Ugh, it's going to be a long day :(

On an oddly brighter note, I got an email from JC Penney that the bedding set that has been on backorder for several weeks now is not going to be available. They cancelled the order. Fortunately for me, I was really ambivalent about the set anyway, so it probably worked out for the best. I'll know the right one when I see it but this wasn't it.

The weather here is so awesome...I can't wait for summer.

Just watched the duck video...so adorable!!!!

Sorry about the station Glenda...that completely sucks.  This week isn't busy, thank goodness its about time.  Not much else going on, our friends were supposed to come in for March Madness on Thursday but had to cancel.  I am completely bummed. 

Hope everyone has a good day!

FINALLY, it has stopped raining.  The river near my dad's building was at overflow at 9ft, it went to over 14ft.  But, things will be just fine.  Our pump worked the whole storm so no basement troubles either.  We had put stuff up as high as possible in case. 

Today, it's great and I got up early and took Willow to the park.  She's doing a little walking program with me until it gets too hot.  She would much rather just find a tree and watch everything going on, LOL. 

Hope everyone has a great day!

Baking apple turnovers, I ask myself why did you buy those and why are you baking them, I really don't like them lol so who wants some???? 

Go & see the dermatologist tomorrow about what was thought to be a mole but it was actually a cyst, I seen my reg doctor who took it off and asked why is it so itchy and why does it look the way it does got I dont know and this blank stare on his face oh you need to see a dermatologist.

My mom says its a waste of money going, I don't know maybe it is here is a picture what do you's think??

  the mole well cyst was taken off in January stitches out Jan 21st it now looks like that which I don't like and ask why does it look like that got the blank stare, and its very itchy at times. Is it a waste of money to go to the dermatologist?

Apple turnovers are done, gotta make cupcakes as well for tomorrow

FH just had his appointment with the orthopedic surgeon here. To say it went poorly, would be an understatement. His original inclination that it was serious was right.

Lauren - those cake toppers are CUTE!  But not too silly cute - like, I really don't like the one of the wife dragging the husband.  I'm a little stuffy like that. lol  I like the cupcake idea, for whatever it's worth.  I think you have less wasted cake, an easier thing for people to take home with them after the event if they don't have a chance to eat at the wedding, but maybe it's cost-efficient to go with the cake?

Glenda - I'm sorry about your son.  It's sad, because all of his wishes to end it like adults sounds like a hidden hope to leave the path open for one of them to return to the other.  If she's tossing his stuff out of the apartment, his name needs to be off of it, asap.  When she leaves, she sounds like the type of person to leave it trashed for him to clean up the financial mess.  "Being the adult" does not mean being a fool, so don't let him say "I'll just walk away from the security deposit" and whatnot.

I'm really sorry about the radio station closing.  How does that impact your residence, since don't you rent the house that's on the same property?  Good vibes for work - I know FL isn't easy in the jobs department.

Paige, how's your friend's dog doing?

As for C, the only details I got from a mutual friend were: "she has a 2+ tumor which is basically saying it's a gray area and they're not sure they got it all."  As for Mayday, her owner has opted not to do the $5k spinal surgery (it sounded like some amazing bionic-dog thing).  So, she will never be the dog she was before - her mom calls her Frankenstein-ish in her movements, but is in no pain.  According to her owner: "I'm sure she's going to have to stay on prednisone which will speed up heart failure but the neurologist assures me she is on a low dose. We see the Cardiologist when her treatment and dosage is set."   *sigh* - hug your healthy and not-so-healthy dogs tight guys - we simply don't get to have them long enough.

Does anyone know any good dog trainers in NJ?

Dawn Wolfe in Delran is also great to work with - a lot of fun and very accomplished dogs.  I've watched her JRT Hope do bitework, even. lol  http://luckydogacademy.com/

 Thanks!!! I am thinking about relocating to central Jersey, so... trying to look ahead and plan a little bit, ya know?

I think you'd like Dawn, and maybe if Rascal plays his cards right, he could be on TV! lol  She is a talent coordinator for trained dogs for TV, print, films, etc.  She has a thing for small dogs with spunk.

daisyprincess that looks like a nasty scar, keep some aloe on it.  As for a mole and cist?  They are very different things.  A mole gets removed a cist gets drained like a pimple (TMI).  My daughter just had a cist drained (this was her second)  they used a needle and she had to keep up with up for days and she has no scar.  Good luck!

Yep, looks like a scar to me as well.

Hey Amanda, I mentioned the LL Cool J "Around the Way Girl" song to my co-worker, who immediately piped up, "I may, or may not, have done it to that song. I'm not sure, it's a possibility, so I may or may not have."  You may be a little too young (or into country or rock) to remember it. lol

If the itchiness gets worse or doesn't go away I would go to the dermatologist just to be sure.  It does look like a scar, but it also kind of looks like a spot I had come up on my skin that was fine for a while then got very itchy.  My family Dr was the same as yours, blank stare and said "you gotta see a dermatologist, I have no idea!".  The dermatologist removed the spot because she said it did look suspicious.  She just froze it off, no big deal, and my insurance paid for it.  The other good thing was she checked me well for any other spots, she said if one appears others may, but thank goodness there were none.  Good luck!!!

It was a BEAUTIFUL day here in Indiana today!!  I hope tomorrow is the same.......

Deb, I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved beer fridge. I know that if I lost my beer fridge, I would be devastated. (((Hugs))) Just remember that each day will get a little easier.

Glenda, fingers crossed that you & your DH find new jobs.

Lauren, I love the cake toppers!

Paige, is Mayday a DCM dog? What's going on with her heart? I think that I must have missed something.

I was 11 when that song came out, & as I recall, I was more of a rock fan at that age.  I will admit that I'm guilty of "doin it" to an LL song.  This one, as a matter of fact.  I'll just say that the song promised more than the guy delivered...

I have had a terrible day at work.  Chaos, would be a mild way of describing it.  I am fairly sure that the only thing that got me through the day was the fact that I had Cher & Boo with me today.  There's nothing quite "having" to take a break because Cher needed a little lap time or Boo needed a nub rub.

After work, I ran took Cher to the training center to work on heeling.  Last night, while I was playing "newbie dog owner" she got away with a ton of crap that I normally don't allow.  I thought that it was a good idea to get her back in the ring, working, to remind her of what is expected of her in the ring.  Her heeling was spectacular.  By far, the best that she's ever done.  Have I mentioned how much I love my girl?

 Luke went to work with me for a bit today. He went to go see two clients with me. He goes to own fairly regularly, that kid doesn't care about him though. Can I say I am quite happy with my dog today? I was nervous the whole time, but I let a 3.5 year old walk him. In a pretty empty area, mostly in a cemetery. He didn't pull, he walked nicely with the boy, and refused to get far from me. Any time he got more further than where I could pretty easily step on his leash if the boy dropped it, he stopped and waited for me to catch up. I did keep two squeaky balls on me though, so that if he did drop his leash, I am pretty darn sure he will come back if there is a ball involved. He walked next to a bike, stopped at the street corners, and if the kids tried to walk without giving him permission to cross, he waited for it (I did not let the three year old walk him across the street). And the kid, I am quite pleased with him too. When he took the leash, I put it on his hand, and gave him his instructions. He didn't drop the leash, he let me or his mom know when he wanted us to take the leash, didn't get upset when we told him we needed to take it. Pretty good overall I think.
