Oh I'm sorry your not feeling good, glad you stayed in and just rested.

ouch, they sound really sore.

I needed to find the right locations that have a lot of foot traffic and then submit bids. So far, so good as I was in the beginning only going to order 2 machines but I'm having 5 shipped out. My feeling is if it works then good for me but if not at least I tried. "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" kind of approach is how I'm looking at it. Ooops...I'm muttering in Gill's Mutter hut

you did your research, good for you, now do we get any free food?:sneaky:

Gill won't mind us muttering, she's a damn good egg that Gill!:-4

I've now got 4 mouth ulcers ! grrrrrrrrrrrrr....... and a sore throat - I'm hoping that it isn't ulcerated !!!! another grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I've got some special paste type medication to put on the ulcers, but there is no point doing it during the day, as it is a waste when I'm slurping fluids and eating food. I will attack the little buggers tonight when I go to bed ! I do have these damn ulcers from time to time and that paste works a treat, and usually they're sorted in one night, two at the most!

Now about this muttering, Jazzy..................... This thread is entitled 'Gill's talk and mutter hut', so you are perfectly entitled to mutter to your heart's content ! So I'll hear no more about it !!!! :rolleyes:

Well, my mouth ulcers are not quite as painful today, but I will do another 'dose' of the adcortyl paste tonight (if I can squeeze sufficient out of the tiny tube!), I meant to buy some more today, but forgot grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Yeh yeh, I'm old and forgetful :yh_rotfl :yh_rotfl Thanks for asking

morning everyone,

another bright day here but the bitterly cold wind is enough to cut your ears off !! im begining to have doubts about having the dog clipped right now cos despite being a " working " breed of dog, hes an indoor pampered pooch :rolleyes:

and im worried he might feel the cold and he is getting on a bit now................

sorry yer not well gill, nothing worse than mouth ulcers

i had a very effective mouthwash from the doc and they were gone in 24hrs................

jazzy, i hope your new venture is a sucess for you.......... i always wanted to have greenhouses and grow plants to sell but now im afraid age and lack of space prevents it !!!

hi odie, hope things are ok with you too............

its only 7-45am and im trying very hard to ignore the above mentioned dog, thats the only trouble with these lighter mornings, he feels the need to be out and about where asi certainly dont.............:-5

Helen · Post by **Helen** » Tue Mar 09, 2010 4:22 am

just hoping i dont do what i did last time when i had the dog clipped............ i put all the hair in the bin bag............. went out the next day to put some rubbish out, caught a glimpse of the hair and nearly had a heart attack cos for a second i thought someone had put a dead cat in the bag !!!!!:-3:rolleyes::yh_rotfl

Hello Helen! I dang near peed my pants reading this :yh_rotfl Thank you for wishing me well with my new business.

Hello Gill! Hope your mouth is better. I hate those ulcers as they hurt so bad. I get them only if I eat things with a high acid content (like tomatoes). I love tomatoes but have to be careful now not to eat too many.

Hello Odie! Hope you are able to find a job soon. It's hard with the current economy since so many people are out of work.

The weather here by me has been sunny and warm. The snow has been melting and causing minor flooding but I'd rather have that than any more snow. I'm sick of snow and the cold weather.

that's to funny Helen!

When he gets groomed do they not dry his fur before he goes back out, they most certainly do there.

poor puppy, you don't want him out in the freezing cold!

Gill will be here later, she's gone to the store to buy some cream.:sneaky:

It's been sunny and mild here, next 5 days is rain.

Odie gets very cranky when it rains.

Helen · Post by **Helen** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 12:55 am

morning everyone,

hello hope, long time no speak, how are things with you....................

its raining here today, the first for quite a while now.......... im sure its cos i decided to paint the wooden fence that seperates me from next door !!!

woke up with the start of a cold, got that burning shivering no one cares about me feeling :rolleyes::rolleyes::D

dont think my dog is feelin that clever either, he took himself off to bed last night at 10-30 and has hardly moved since and is normally by now, pacing the floor to go out.............. hope he hasnt caught a chill now ive had him clipped !! feeling a bit bad about having him done now but it really couldnt have been left any longer.

hi odie,

he didnt have a bath first, just a straight forward haircut...............

anyway, ive got the day off today so niether of us have to go out just yet.

gill,

hope yer ok mrs, not seen you here for a few days :-4

hi jazzy, hope things are going well with you too

G#Gill · Post by **G#Gill** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:53 am

Hi everybody! Jazzy, Helen, Odie, Hope, hope you are all OK ! Hey Hope, glad you could type a couple of words here ! :rolleyes: just joking, honest guv ! It's good to see you on FG again, so please call in more often, and perhaps fill us in on what's been happening in your neck of the woods lately ! We do allow a couple of paragraphs of typing - well at least I do :wah: You can also let us know which forum you've gone to, or not (so we can come and spy on you :yh_rotfl).

My mouth is more or less clear of ulcers, and my sore throat has gone, thank goodness - I can eat things more comfortably :wah:

Helen, I hope your dear pooch is not poorly! I suppose it could be that he's taken the hump cos he's had his fur coat taken off - dogs can get miffed at that sort of thing! I remember our first dog 'Freddy', yes he was called Fred (my mum picked the name, cos she said he looked a 'Fred' :wah:). He was so like a bearded collie, only he was a Heinz 57 (or 'I'll have to ask me mum') dog. He was such a gorgeous looking fluffy, long haired mut - honey coloured all over. For a couple of years when we first had him, he would love sneaking out of our garden (there was no fence at the front) and slinking off to the pub along the road, going round the back, and rolling in the horse sh!t near their stables! Of course with him having long hair, he'd come back home stinking, and we knew exactly where he'd been ! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. That dog had more baths in his first 2 years than all the rest of his days ! :yh_rotfl He lived to be 16 years old!

Actually, Fred was very good at staying in our garden - it's just that if the mood took him, he would slope off and roll in the nearest manure! We lived in a country village for the first 16 years of our married life, and Fred loved it !

Well, now I must get on with me chores, so I'll get back later............... :-6

Helen · Post by **Helen** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 2:42 am

hi gill,

we've been out for our walk, he seemed happy enuff and did the compulsary ball chasing :rolleyes: but hes now gone back to sleep............ i'll see what he's like later and if he hasnt improved, i'll nip him up to the vets. he is getting on a bit now so i guess im gonna have to expect aches and pains now lol:(

the sun is coming out now but im gonna take myself back to bed for a bit. ive got to the aching joints stage now:(

the housework can wait............... theres not that much of it anyway

G#Gill · Post by **G#Gill** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 5:43 am

Poor owd fella! How old is he Helen, I can't remember if you told me once before or not ? :rolleyes:

Don't blame you for crawling back to bed :yh_rotfl Hey, I hope you're OK Mrs ! :-3

The housework won't go anywhere, so you may as well have a bit of a rest - poor owd bogger !

Helen · Post by **Helen** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 6:52 am

he will be 9 on april 1st :rolleyes:

when they had his dad put to sleep ( at 11yrs old ) the vet said that was bordering on geriatric for a springer................ but my wally has been far better looked after than his dad ever was, im afraid he was just fed and shoved outside most of the time and hardly ever walked and im sad to say they mostly ignored his health probs to save THEMSELVES the upset of having him put down........... i took him in the end

Good morning everyone :-6 It's a beautiful morning here and I just came back from taking Midnight for a nice long ride. We found another pond on my property which I never knew was there. That makes three ponds so far. This new pond is deep on the woods on my property and the water is crystal clear. I may have just found myself a nice swimming spot when the weather gets nice and warm. Midnight and I have been asked to ride in the local St. Patrick's Day parade and I'm very excited about that. I have to find him a nice green riding blanket. :guitarist

I would love to see pics of you and Midnight in the parade so take your camera.

We used to have 3 huge ponds in a wooded area when I was a kid, millions of white and red trilluims which is Ontario's flower, and tons of tadpoles every spring, I would bring some home and watch them grow into frogs in a huge tank that I had with water from the pond, sand and rocks to climb on when they grew into froggies. The size of the frogs were only a quarter.

Helen, wishing you and puppy get better soon.:-4

Hi Jazzy! Yes stupid people put a strain on the emergency services, but it seems that that will never change, not while people are so damn selfish and thoughtless for others' safety. Do you drive the ambulance, or are you the paramedic? In the UK, each of the ambulance team drive and also both are paramedics.

I'm a paramedic and do not drive the ambulance. The hospital where I work train security guards to drive the ambulances. I used to have three crew members with me (all paramedics) but with the economy, they cut us down to only two of us responding to a scene.

I run a business during the day so I cannot sleep even though I wish I could right now :wah: Seriously, I get my "second wind" after I have a pot of coffee. BTW, where's the coffee in here? :-5

Coffee's on the stove, help yourself, and there's some brownies in the blue tin on the side table

Ere Jazzy, don't burn yourself out Mrs. or make yourself ill, doing too much with little sleep. You've got to be on your toes as a paramedic! Just rest up whenever you can. There's also Midnight to attend to. Gawd, you need a 40 hour day :rolleyes:
