Well now I'm worried about you Nancy. You must be terribly frustrated that you've been sick for so long. Life is tough enough when we're healthy but so hard to cope when we're not. A sincere "Get Well Soon" to you. Shasta doesn't seem to be suffering yet. If fact, I wouldn't know she was sick except that her appetite is so poor. It's difficult to find something that she will eat. I tried to do the sub-Q fluids myself at home today and it's not as easy as it looks. I wouldn't have made a good nurse. It's less stressful for her to do it at home instead of dropping her off at the vet, cheaper too of course. She won't eat the special food. I gave up on that already and have been making her meatballs with hamburger, rice and egg whites. Not exactly what she's supposed to have but better for her than dogfood and it's just about all I can get her to eat. Mosswitch - Sorry to hear about your daughter's cat. We get so attached don't we. We have a cat that's around 17 too. She just lays around and sleeps mostly, doesn't jump up on things anymore. She's even kind of slow getting in and out of her litter box the last couple months so I think she might be starting to suffer a bit. I'm pretty slow when I get up too though. lol Sunny I'm jealous that you have a lantana still alive. The ones I brought in to my basement are crispy. I think they're dead but will set them outside in the spring just in case. All our decorations have been taken down and I did some seed sorting today. I need to make a big winter sowing mess.

Labradorks! hahah!!! We call ours the Blabs (bad labs). Don't have a picture of Pop (cat) in the tree, he hid too quickly for me to get it, but he climbed the tree the moment I set it up. I had to wire it to the bookcase so it wouldn't fall over. Then Aurora (dog) found one of the stuffed reindeer I use to decorate the tree with. I chased her through the house to get it. I was hesitant to put the decorations on the tree because it's full of stuffed animals...the Blabs favorite toys. I put up a real tree in the living room and Pop tried to eat it. Then he sat there watching as I decorated it with vintage glass balls. One squirt from the water bottle was all it took. Now he just sits there and stares at it, while glaring at me out of the corner of his eye.

Honestly? I was a bad TKO person and never saw the range in person before we bought it. I went solely on the web pics and specs. I had no interest in the freestanding model as I did not want the controls in back so barely glanced at it. On my range left/right there is TONS of room. So much so that I think they could have put a 5th burner there (though it would have been a bit tight). Front/back spacing is decent, too. It's possible that since the slide-in actually extends a bit more on the sides (it has about a 1/2" lip on either side) that the entire spacing is different. On the wattage specs it's possible that the specs are wrong (a typo). I have a few more threads here and on the appliances forum about my range. Just do a search on pbrisjar and induction and they should come up. Also if you go to my main photo album (linked below) you can see quite a few more pics of the range and other things. Here is a link that might be useful: My main album

Their not swinging anything but their snouts and jaws. Piggy Lee went to the woods today and Piggy Sue stayed behind to dig up my gingers.
