Tbone... pet insulin is different than people insulin. 

Well, the clinic (which we distinctly feel can't find either butt-cheek with both hands plus outside help) said that our people-pharmacy can get the stuff and will call us when they have it, sigh man.

 

We also need to find some U-Many (U-[2x2x2x2x2 + 2x2x2]) syringes, sigh man.

Why don't pet clinics have what they prescribe, huh man?

 

We also must find a way to get cat to eat a half-of-half a metronidazole pill daily, maybe mix with soft glop man.

Cat has already missed first dose because Mrs. T-B. didn't tell us where she put it when she picked it up, ADD she man.

[TBoneTX 43,014]

In partially decent news, cat's glucose level fell from Many00 to Many00 in essentially one week of just dietary changes, more than vet expected man.

 

We have emphasized many times to Mrs. T-B. that we are going to need her help twice daily at consistent times each day to shoot up cat when insulin is ready, cat = child = sick child man.  This does not seem to register, ADD and overly obsessed empresaria she man.

Had to call town again today because neighbors still haven't mowed their back lawn.

Send written request to town, signed by surrounding neighbors & passers-by, quit messing around ma'am.

The owner will be back tomorrow to talk about the damages, but I don't see it going well.

Hire a junkyard-dog lawyer, quit messing around ma'am.

 

At this point, neither action is killing a fly with a sledgehammer, no ma'am.

There isn't even a good way to get back at them passive aggressively.

Forget the passive part, then, junkyard-dog lawyer Nola-B. ma'am.

Why continue to suffer when others can be involved to serve you, huh ma'am?

One that's located off the main campus of a University with no kitchen and underpaid adjunct teachers.

What did we end up eating that you offered none to us of, huh TL ma'am?

The damages are less than a lawyer would cost, I presume. There is a way things are done out here and I know she's skirting it, but it is our reputations that will falter if we go too hard too soon.

 

Plus, I suspect the yard will be mowed later today, when the parent of the adult child returns, although I'm not sure how she's going to get her puny battery powered mower through it.

I'm having my first lazy azz Saturday since like, April...

Tell  her cat can die without insulin shots.

 

Some larger clinics will have items in stock constantly.  Like my old one had a huge pharmacy and plenty of stock. The only time we ran out of anything was a back order from the production company.  My current one is small and often only carries 1 or 2 of things in stock before ordering more.

We went to go see a house today in our town. Listed for about 50 more than our house is worth, but probably needs another 50-100 in work. Absolutely massive amount of land for in town, two garage buildings, an actual mudroom, screened in porch, better kitchen layout, 2 bathrooms....

 

But I'm hesitating with putting in an offer. It has the things we want, but we have so much financial freedom living in a house without a mortgage.  Besides finances, the Dane liked it.🤔 

 

Talked to neighbor - she didn't apologize or even act concerned. Said painter/boyfriend would be in touch.  She's selling the house, so there is at least a small pleasure there.

Easier to recruit a flock of goats, si man.

"It is better to be feared than to be taken advantage of," once said a famous POTS business typhoon, si man.

Would be interested in more detail regarding the above, si Nola-B. ma'am.

This is consistent with the conclusion of outright owners of pre-owned toilet seats, si ma'am.

Those who must buy them on the installment plan must sacrifice other areas of life, POTSs come first man.

Stuff like this can go in one ADD and out the other, sigh Niki-B. ma'am.

Ours doesn't stock insulin, sigh man.

Nor do they have the U-Many syringes, sigh man.

Pharmacy into which Rx was called has epi-pens (?), something regarding refilling required man.

This people-pharmacy does get a bunch of Rx calls for pets, sound like they know their business man.

Saturday GS/ES report, see man:

Rant, see man:

 

Mrs. T-B. puts on makeup before going to her "jeem," workout she man.

In recent weeks, Mrs. T-B. has been taking our best bath towels to her jeem, take she man.

These are not just our best towels, but our best white towels, guess the result man.
