  1. I just spent FOUR hours round trip to get bread! I took a 1 hour commuter train to get to the 1 hour subway train !! There is a bakery in York Maine that makes amazing bread. They have a bunch of stores near Boston. I went to the one in Somerville (not guest’s store). It’s called When Pugs Fly. They make an Easter bread that has chocolate, cherries and pistachios in it. You have to pre-order and pick it up. It is worth the train ride! They do mail order their regular breads but not this one. Someday I will take a field trip and go to their York ME store. Miss Halise with a freezer full of their breads!
  2. Saturday it poured. Like not being able to even see past the windshield wipers! We got to the store to take Bunny pictures. It slowed a little. Thankfully we brought everything except our printer and camera stuff their on Friday and set it all up! We actually had four people come in with their dogs to get pictures. I was amazed. Sunday was much much better. We did really well. My blood sugar is still way too high. Called the Dr and she said to increase my dose from 10 to 14 units. Started that today. We’ll see. Miss Halise
  3. Heading to the pet store to set up for this weekend’s Pet Pictures with the Easter Bunny! It’s one of our big fundraisers. This is one of my favorites. The hounds are my friend’s dogs Alex and Pistol. I never get to bring my dogs because I am the photographer . Hmmm it’s sideways? 😞
  4. That’s weird Miss Elizabeth. Martha and I had the same lawyer. We went in together to have them done. Miss Halise
  5. Miss Andipants, Klair is a mutual friend of ours. She used to live up here and now is in North Carolina. She actually adopted my Ziva’s little littermate Chloe. She has one of those ummmmmm, loud voices! People tend to do what she “asks”!! She’s a sweetheart. 🤪 . The CGM and the reader do come separately. I don’t use the reader, I use my phone instead. I’ll be getting the Libre 3 shortly. It automatically sends the numbers to the reader or phone. You don’t even need to scan it! Miss Halise
  6. Miss Ducky, glad Flashy is doing better and that the threat of Klair incentivized you to take your meds! 🤪 Miss Halise
  7. Miss Ducky, if you don’t take your meds NOW I will have Klair talk sternly to you!!! Miss Halise
  8. My girl FloraDorable looked like Flashy ehen she got her first Leptospirosis vaccine. Martha took her for her vaccines at lunchtime. Brought her home and then went to work. I got home about 5 hours later. Poor Flori’s whole head and neck were blown up like a balloon! Her eyes were little slits. She had NO problem breathing thank goodness. Called the vet (of course it was after hours). He said it was an allergic reaction to the shot. Asked if I had benedryl. Yup. Give her one. Wait 30 minutes and call him back. Gave her the benedryl and thankfully the swelling went away. Her poor neck looked like a turkey wattle coz the skin had stretched so much! It was scary. Miss Halise
  9. Many many many years ago we had Betsy (also nicknamed Boopieface). She was a tiny 48 pound greyhound. One night I bent over to kiss the top of her head like a did every night just before going to bed. Well, she must have decided it was too far for me to bend and UP she popped! Right into my nose. Not sure who screamed louder! Turns out she broke my nose! Two of the most beautiful black eyes! Wore my sunglasses to work. Everyone kept asking why I had them on indoors. When I finally took them off everyone asked if Martha was hitting me!!! No one believed it was the dog!
  10. Sugar numbers are s-l-o-w-l-y creeping down. Very slowly. Still haven’t heard back on an appt to have the furnace leak fixed so I called. Oh, yeah, we just got the text and need to review it and come up with an estimate. We’ll call you. Sigh. On a nice note, a lady on one of my Facebook food groups messaged me. Shh was on Lantus and just changed to something else. She has three boxes of unused/unopened Lantus and is willing to give it to me! She lives in the next town. I asked if it was the pens, and I’m waiting for her reply. Miss Halise
  11. Miss Nancy of the Berg, I am glad you are home. Back pain is the WORST! Hope rest and the meds will help. Halise
  12. Miss Patsy, good luck and fingers crossed for Mr Patsy. The insulin is in pens and stays in the fridge until I start a pen. The in use pen can stay unrefrigerated for a month. Pens are much easier than syringes. Time for coffee! Miss Halise
  13. Say hello to my new little friend . Lantus insulin. I take it once a day. At least it’s only $35 per month unlike $343 for mounjaro.
  14. Miss Caroline, we won’t know for a few days if the insulin is working. Sigh. At least it isn’t making me feel crummy! All of the other meds made my stomach feel horrible for a few weeks! Miss Halise
  15. Walgreens called last evening and said my insulin was in. I picked it up this morning and took my first shot. I have to take 10 units once a day. I hope this works. Miss Halise 💉
  16. Happy Mothering Sunday Miss RE Carol! Hope you have a lovely day! Miss Halise
  17. Miss Ducky, as much as I would love to join you all, I’m not planning on going anywhere this year. Too many unexpected expenses 😞. Miss staying at home Halise
  18. That tiger was four months old and weighed about 45 pounds! When I scritched it behind the ears, she purred! And when I stopped, she smacked my on the face to keep going! Then when the man tried to take her back she grabbed on so tight she almost choked me! I think she liked me as much as I liked her💕💕 Muss REvCarol, the pen has insulin already in it so I just have to turn a dial to select the amount instead of a syringe. I don’t have to fill a syringe from a vial. Much easier and the needle is teeny tiny! Miss Halise having yet another (third 20 ounce cup). This one is half decaf half regular
  19. Me with Mexican black wolf pups at a wild and endangered animal breeding facility at the Caliente mex track. I also got to hold a baby tiger!
  20. Sigh. Got a text from Walgreens saying my prescription was ready. I went on my way home. The scrip for the pen needles was ready but they won’t have the Lantus till Monday. What kind of pharmacy doesn’t have a normal drug like this on hand? I mean, really? I can understand them not having the mounjaro coz it’s hard for them to get, but INSULIN????? So now I have to wait even longer to get meds. 🤯
