    College Football is back!!!

    and I must say that I am pumped! I absolutely LOVE college football - so much better than NFL, IMO:p (besides, our NFL team is the Browns and they are a bit lackluster,lol ) My Buckeyes kick off the season tonight vs. Marshall, and I can't wait. My boss also got us club seat tickets for a...

    Stinky teenagers...best detergent?

    Oh man, my freshman son is playing football, and when I pick up 3 15 year olds from practice, the stench is horrible:confused: I'm trying to find a "sports" type of detergent that will get the smell that seems to be forever ingrained in that polyester fabric. Can anyone help me...

    My precious Punky is sick. Need prayers!

    That is awesome, Tracy! I don't kow what his BUN started out at but if it's down to 22, that's phenomenal. Please let me know what the Lepto titer results are. Was your vet offended that you specifically requested the test be run based on an online "vet friend"? :D Sometimes I can get testy...

    My precious Punky is sick. Need prayers!

    I'm sorry to hear that Punky isn't rallying :( Is he home with you now? So, did you tell them a vet online told them to do a Lepto titer;)? I'll be curious to find out the results. He may do well with SQ fluids administered at home 2-3 times weekly. Hang in there, and be sure to give us...

    lower back problem.......please advise

    HEAR! HEAR! I am the lower back pain queen:confused: I herniated a disc in April, and it really has been quite a long haul, honestly. Your issue may be only "bulging" but, honestly, there is little difference per my doctor. Have you seen an MD for this or back doctor? I highly recommend...

    Are race fees tax deductible?

    Our accountant told me that it's tricky because of what other posters said - how much really goes to that specific cause, you are getting a tshirt and a goody bag usually, etc. He did, however, tell me to keep track of mileage driven to and from the events as you can deduct that cost (so...

    My precious Punky is sick. Need prayers!

    Yes, I would still test for Lepto. No vaccine is 100% protectve and the vaccine only covers certain serovars for Lepto. There are other serovars that they can still get. So, I still test even in light of vaccination. We usually have them on IV antibiotics until they are stable and then oral...

    My precious Punky is sick. Need prayers!

    So sorry to hear about Punky - poor fellow! Not sure if Leptospirosis is prevalent in your area - it's a bacterial disease that can cause renal failure. I usually screen for this with blood tests, especially in the young dogs that aren't prone to either congenital renal issues or...

    Feline allergies are fairly common and typically fall in one of three categories- flea allergy, food allergy and atopy (seasonal allergy). Flea allergies are the most common so appropriate monthly topical flea control is recommended for ALL cats with allergies (some veterinary dermatologists...

    A scary anniversary (kinda long)

    Wow, Pam, I can't believe what you went through. How horrific. Our community suffered a horrible flood 3 years ago - we miraculously were pretty much unscathed. Lost our furnace under our crawl space which flooded. Pretty minor considering some families within 1/4 mile of us lost everything...

    negativity/type A

    I am very much this type of personality as well - I guess I'm more the perfectionist, analytical and critical type-A vs. being negative a lot, but the type A has a tendency to make me more negative when things don't go like I want or people I work with are disorganized and not as detail oriented...

    I wish I could have enjoyed mine - can't do it since I herniated my disc.:mad: I'm thinking about selling it on amazon or craigs list, I guess. No sexy boom boom for me, I guess,lol..but glad someone is seeing some benefits from it! Heidi

    Looking for advice for my friend regarding her new bf

    Oddly enough, some people are just raised that way. DH's family and friends from Cleveland do this - with family, friends, etc. I was raised with just hugging so it always makes me feel odd and I just off set the kiss and hit their cheek. Maybe they are offended, but I just don't want to kiss...

    Vasectomies...

    Thanks for all the replies - I thought this thread had died a natural death already:) I think he's giving it deep consideration. Perhaps it was the "running to the bathroom in search of condoms" the other night that ruined the moment that finally convinced him:o He is looking into the no...

    Vasectomies...

    Ok, so I was on sushi yesterday and now I'm onto vasectomies:p DH and I are done having kids - he's 43, I'm 42, and it's time to move on from our child bearing years. I've been thinking about him getting a vasectomy. For one thing, I'm sick of using..ummm...condoms (TMI, I know, sorry). I...

    Sushi!!

    I am officially in love with sushi! My 12 year old and I have been going out for lunch at least once a week (he has an odd palate - won't eat pb and j or pizza, but will eat raw fish:)) It is so tasty, light and refreshing! Anyone ever make their own? Amazon has a sushi kit on sale that...
