People give me anywhere from 1750-2000 for a set.
They choose what they give me... I know that sounds weird doesn't it???
They say that they want a set, when I get the next set I just offer the trade and the other person puts in how much they want to pay...

Pra_prawn,
The government isn't dealing with the cougar. We are. We have been out hunting it about three times now.
When my Dog is outside I stand there to guard and or protect him.
My Dog is about the same size as a cougar but he is old and I am afraid that he couldn't protect himself from a cougar any more...
Bub my Son-in-laws pitbull would have a good fight with a cougar.... I don't want him to get torn up though and in a fight he would get torn up...
I do have my own handgun and bullets and I can shoot an animal that is trying to harm me or mine...
I personally am more worried about our free range peacock than anything else... The cougar can climb trees...
Nope the cougar can't mess with me when I am inside the trailer... I can't leave the door open when my dog is inside because then he could get out...
Well I have to head out for an appointment at 11:30 so I will get out of here for now and I will be back after a bit..
I hope that you have a great day,
Smiles and Hugs,
Kat

Fiziali,
My wonderful friend, I sure would like to find some buyers myself...
I actually have a few items to sell not just one or two...
This is pretty much my bee look until I get bee slippers... They will complete the look...
My Dog Indy is still sick. I think that it has been 5 days now. He has lost a lot of weight... He just keeps throwing up and won't stop... Yesterday and today it has been just stomach acid.
I think that I am going to have to figure a way to take him to a Vet which I just plain old can't afford... It is really starting to stress me out...
I have to run over to the house and get my pork out of the oven... I bought a cheap pork roast and doused it in BBQ sauce then I am cooking it until the meat falls apart...
Then you melt some cheese on a bun, put some of the BBQ'ed pork on the bun and called Nummy!!! hehehe...
I will only be gone for a minute or two...

Ooh that does sound Nummy...you're making me hungry, hehe. I can let you borrow my bee slippers if you like, hun! :)
Aww, omg, it sounds like your dog is just really suffering right now. I'm sooooo sorry, Katty! I hope Cliff comes to see you sometime today (tomorrow for you) and takes you and your dog right down to the vet. I'm sure he will, if he sees how the dog is suffering. I understand not being able to afford the vet, hun. Have you tried calling your local SPCA? They might help, if you explain the situation to them.
Edit: Oops, oh, I forgot you asked about these wings I have on, and I completely ignored your question, hehe. I think it was in my thread and I was ranting about my daughter there, lol, and forgot about your question. They are called Winters Flight and are part of the Nov '07 CI set.

Unfortunately Cliff can't come up right now...
His Mom and Stepdad are out of town she is a training thing for her job and Mac goes with her almost always now that he is over 80. She doesn't think anyone but she can take care of him...
So Cliff has to take care of the dogs...
If you don't think that is enough today at 9:30 their towns power went out and I don't think that it ever came back on yet... He had to go home from work to run the generator an hour for the fridge, an hour for the freezer... 4 hours no power then an hour for the fridge and an hour for the freezer.. 4 hours of no power....
Indy however must go to the vet tomorrow.
A couple of hours ago he threw up on my bed... I had to drive all of the way across town to get my Son and bring him over to carry out the wet mattress... To the shed so that it can dry... Then bring in the little upper bunk pad that may be an inch thick maybe... for me to sleep on...
Ness had just gone to bed and I had to call her so that I could go over and wash my bedding... That was not a pleasant call, she is not a very nice person about things that she doesn't care about.
My Son looked at him and said Mom he has to go to the vet in the morning...
That is part why I drove across town and back in the middle of the night... So someone else could tell me what they thought after this past few days. One way or another he is going to the vet tomorrow...
I am going to be up all night waiting for my bedding to dry... I just have one blanket that I use... It is one of those really thick fuzzy ones with a mural of a Faerie on it...
It takes forever for them to dry but they are really warm... hehehe All of my other bedding is over in storage... Which I can only get into from 8-5 all the days of the week... even if I could find my bedding in that mess...
EDIT:
We don't have SPCA here... But there are 3 agencies around here that do things if/when possible... A group called wags, a group called friends of animals, and I can't think of the other one right now...
Oh we also have a dog pound and it is a no kill dog pound... However my personal Vet is family friends with my Son-in-laws family... My Son-in-law will call and set something up. He did it once before for someone else's dog...
Then I will pay my Son-in-law back $20-$30 a month... This is going to be spendy though... I would guess $150-$180 not counting any meds or services...
They are going to do ex-rays of his stomach... A dogs stomach can twist or something like that... If that is what has happened I will have to take him up back and put him down myself.
It will be the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life... I am not feeling really good about it right at the moment... I know that you have gone to bed by now... It is like 4 am or something like that at your place...

Katty, I'm so sorry hun! I think you're having it rougher than I am right now. Sick dog, grumpy daughter, no Cliff to be there to help out...at least your son was able to help out a bit though, but I truly feel for you. :(
I don't blame you for taking the dog to the vet if he's that sick. Wow, that mat you have to sleep on tonight...does not sound comfortable at all! I could never sleep on it, personally. I have a hard enough time sleeping on my soft old lumpy mattress that the kids keep pulling the stuffing out of.
The kid's dad's grandpap wanted to replace the mattress with a new one and I told him no way, I need this mattress to sleep on. Get a new one and I'll never be able to sleep. He laughed, and let it go. He knew I was serious.
Even as a kid, I could never sleep on the hard ground or on a stiff mattress...they always had to be nice and soft and comfy. The best bed I ever slept on was one of those waterbed's, with the mattress that waves when you move around on it...didn't have all the cells that some of the newer waterbeds have in them. Omg, that was the best night's sleep I had ever gotten, when I was babysitting this little nine month old baby, and the couple was going to be out quite late, so they said I could stay there in their spare room for the night. They hired me regularly because they liked how I took care of the baby so well.
Omg hun, I really am sorry about your dog. :(
Oh, did you want to borrow my bee slippers? I'll set up a trade for you if you do!

No thanks for now on the slippers it is almost time to redress my avi any way... Maybe next time I will ask if I can borrow them...
Yes I am dreading what the vet is going to say tomorrow...
They are going to want an ex-ray right off the bat. With as much as he has been ill there is no way that he isn't dehydrated... So they will give him an IV...
Just those two things are going to be around the prices I already said... Then there will be tests and meds for him if he is fixable... If he is not fixable and I going to have to take him up and take care of it myself...
I don't know if I have the strength to do the job... He has been my baby since the day we got him 11 years ago... I rode in the backseat of my little sporty car so that it was just him and me... My husband drove... It was so that Indy and I would bond better/quicker... I am going to fall apart if he has to go tomorrow...
As for the bed pad thingy, I am not going to get much sleep tonight... Because of everything not just that... I already feel a LONG night coming on...

*Huggles and squishes and luffles on Katty* Hun, I understand how hard that will be for you. I know he means a lot to you, and I know it pains you to see him suffer too. I truly hope they are able to do something for him, though I know it's inevitable that he will be going sometime in the not so distant future anyways because of his age.
You and your dog are close to my heart and mind at the moment, and I am worried for both of you as well.
No, I have not gone to bed yet. I just could not sleep...I am so worried about everything that is happening here at home that it's making it hard for me to sleep as well. I will go to bed once I see the kids off on the school bus in the morning, and I will sleep until they get home from school.
Then I have to prepare for a doctor's appt to see my doctor tomorrow. I'm not exactly looking forward to that appt as I have not been taking very good care of myself since my last appt...mainly due to, first off, having been ill, and now due to all the worrying I'm doing.

Oh honey, I love you so much. I don't know if a person could have a better friend than you...
The babies are so lucky to have you... Thank goodness you are there and that you love them and that you care.... I just somehow get the feeling without you their lives would be really messed up...
As if they aren't enough already...
hehehe back when my kids were little and in school I would often just wait until I took them to school to sleep. (Because of my insomnia...)
One of these days I am going to come up with something that will help you make it through all of this stuff that you shouldn't have to go through anyway...
For this moment though I am going to close my eyes for 5 minutes and direct all of the goodness inside of me towards the kids and you just to give you a little extra strength to carry on with....
Then I will open them and talk some more if you so desire...
Hehehe I saw my Dr on Monday... And I wasn't taking good enough care of myself either... I got a little bootie telling off that day.... hehehe...

Mene Exchange Rule:
While we understand that it is necessary for a person to keep their thread on the first page, bumping and double posting is not tolerated on Menewsha. If you are not keeping the thread alive with discussion, then posting on-topic is acceptable if your thread has fallen off of the first page, even if it can be considered double-posting.
I still have 6+ items for sale... There are MANY items that I still want to buy... Though I can't afford them all on the same day or at the same time... So please come on in, talk to me so that I can make more Menegoldz to be able to buy more of the items that I want to have...
Thanks and I hope that everyone has a great day!!!

My thread was over 1/2 way down the second page and I will stay on topic...
Stormii,
It is ok. I am very greatful that you let me know so that I can take your name off of the list... A lot of people don't let you know...
Thank you kindly and you aren't going on a black list or anything of that nature...
I feel that you have behaved honorably in this matter and so I will cheerfully continue to work with you in the future if it comes up.
For now, I hope that you have a great day and maybe next months CI's we will work together on...

Agh, I'm so sorry, Katty. These threads here drop so much faster than they do on Zanny. I think Zanny's forum allows for more threads to appear on the first page, though, so maybe that's why.
I am so not looking forward to moving, even though I know it's necessary. My daughter received some papers from the elementary school my granddaughter will be attending. It contained a report in some testing that was done with her. The tests indicated that she is on the borderline for mental retardation. It said as far as speech goes, she was at a level with other children her age, and that she is cooperative and a real pleasure to work with, but that she is way behind other children her age in the other areas she was tested for.
It said she seems to have difficulty comprehending what is being asked of her, which is very true. There are many occasions I will ask her to do something that I think she should understand what it is I'm asking of her, and yet she doesn't seem to understand. I thought my daughter had her hearing test already scheduled, but it turns out she doesn't, which makes me sooo angry because she has been asked over and over again since last Sept to schedule that damned test.
Tomorrow she has her tests to see if she has ADD, ADHD, or ODD. I honestly hope she doesn't have any of them, though I think it's likely she does. I don't know if they give her the results right there or if she will have to wait for the results to come back from somewhere first.
I wish she would get that hearing test scheduled already, as that could be a huge part of why my granddaughter has a hard time understanding what's being asked of her. I mean, loud noises literally freak her out...noises that would not bother the normal person annoy her. She can hear the fire whistle quite clearly from our house, yet I never hear it until she mentions it because it really isn't that loud due to the distance between our house and the fire house.
Perhaps certain sounds are not clear to her or become distorted making it hard for her to make out certain words. Who knows. We will never find out, however, if she doesn't get that damned test done. I swear, I will pick up that phone one of these days and pretend to be her mother and schedule the damned appt myself if I have to. I should have done that a long long time ago.

Sweetie,
Why are you sorry about that? It isn't your fault...
Partially deaf can mean a lot of different things... It can mean that you hear sounds great at one level but not at all on another level...
Partial deafness could make people think that she is border line mentally incapacitated... I know this for a fact as both my Daughter and her Daughter Mad both had to have PE tubes put in their ears before that they were both half deaf...
Ness my Daughter never got all of her hearing back... She is %75 deaf in one ear and %33 deaf in the other ear...
Mad got all of her hearing back so far... Once she got her tubes in everything was so loud that it made her cry...
We went to a parade a month after her surgery and she spent the whole time freaking out until I figured out it was the noise and covered her ears with my hands and body...
She would cry over a semi truck, garbage truck, dump truck, diesel truck... Sirens killed her... When she was in the house and they were down the street she would cry until I got her ears covered up...
I felt so bad for her...
These tests that your granddaughter is getting be careful with...
My Son was 3 and I took him in to get tested for head start...
They showed him pictures of cow, horses, pigs, and sheep... He had no idea what they were. We had just come down from Alaska for the first time...
What they didn't know and didn't ask him was:
A black bear
A brown bear
A kodiak bear
A grizzly bear
He knew what each one was
I seal, a sea lion, a walrus
He knew what each one was...
He knew the difference between a moose, a caribou, and an elk
Right in front of him they told my that my child was so stupid that he wouldn't make it in headstart... They said that they ought to turn me in for child abuse through neglect because he didn't know farm animals..
I was so angry that I couldn't even talk... I was so cowed my their threats I never tried to get him in headstart again...
His entire school life was pure unadulterated h*ll for him...
That report followed him everywhere that he went...
Eventually he dropped out of school because there was no point... No school here or in Alaska ever gave him a chance...
I could tell you a couple of stories that would curl your hair... About things that were done to him...
So take everything they say with a grain of salt and make them show you the tests and the results...

Oh, she is already in Head Start, hun. The teachers there are really awesome! I attended the classes with her a lot when she first started, but I felt I was more a hindrance than a help, so I finally stopped going.
I was a distraction to my granddaughter when I was there and she would not behave for her teachers. I guess she thought when I was around it was ok for her to misbehave, though why she would think that, I don't know. She doesn't get to behave in that manner at home.
The teacher never asked me to do anything to help out either, but she knew about my arthritis in my knees and my heart condition and I think she was actually afraid to ask me to do anything for fear it might set a heart attack off or something, I don't know.
I really wanted to help as much as I could and on a number of occasions asked her if there was anything I could do to help out. Then I would tell her to please not hesitate to ask if there was anything I could do to help, and she would say she would, but she never did.
Now that my grandson is going there as well, I think it would probably be even worse, because he's a little hellion on wheels, lol. Besides, I never get a break from the kids and the time they are in school, I get my much needed quiet time now. It's actually a big relief for me.
I only hope when we move that the kids are able to continue attending Head Start, since we will be in a different school district. I would hate for them to be dropped and have to go back on a new waiting list.

I meant the people in charge of the testing... Those are the ones to watch... Not headstart it's self...
Honestly at this point I think that the few hours of worry free break that you get are probably better for you at this point and the babies are important but so are you!
They need you as you are their stability... If you drive yourself into a metal break down and or mental exhaustion you won't be able to help the babies so do take care of your self!!!
You hear me!?!?!? take care of yourself....
Where my Granddaughter went to preschool I was more than welcome anytime... I assisted with all field trips. I brought in a cider press and apples and the kids got to make themselves each about a quart of apple cider...
I brought things to school and demonstrated them for the kids and told them about what ever it was... I am a fairly successful classroom visitor...
The kids loved it... The parents hated us...
The kids never had anything like that before and the parents didn't water the cider down any so all the kids got the runs...
Boy you should have heard that one.... that was a royal pain... The teacher didn't blame it on us but the parents did... hehehe... Straight PURE apple juice... hehehe...
I will pray that the kids will remain in headstart!!! That is so important for/to them...
Your Granddaughter was trying to show off because her Grandma went there also... Some kids do that and some kids don't... But it isn't really your fault...
Now I doubly want to kick your Daughter in the shin... Allowing you to think that she had made an appointment when she hadn't...
Well I boiled up the chicken and gave Indy maybe a couple of teaspoons full. I hope that I don't regret it here after a bit...

Ahh I see what you mean. I know I was there when they did the tests on her at the school. They had a book with pictures in it, and if they came across a picture she would not know anything about, I made sure to tell them that, and the lady who was running the test was really nice and listened to me when I would tell her.
She would show each picture to my granddaughter and ask her what it was a picture of. I would say 90% of the pictures, she answered right away. The last two pages though, she read a sentence from and asked my granddaughter to repeat the sentence, but instead, my granddaughter tried to give her an answer, as if she had asked her a question. She did not understand the concept of repeating the sentence, which honestly, I don't know why that surprised me, but it did.
I don't know if I'll be there today, but I'm hoping I can be. It all depends on what kind of mood their dad is in though. I hate how he tries to be so damned controlling about everything when I know he really could care less. I care more about these kids than either of their parents and I want to make sure that everything is done in the best interest of the kids. I can't do that if I am not there when they are being tested.
So far, though, he has never actually prevented me being present for anything I've wanted to be present for. If he says anything, I always tell him I want to be there because I understand what these people are saying better than either he or my daughter do, and that usually works, because he knows it's true.
He may think he controls me, but I generally can come up with something to get my way in the end, hehe. My daughter, on the other hand, she just doesn't know how to manipulate him.

Tiger sweetie,
She is wearing:
Star Catcher
Crescent Moon
Star Dust Sash
Cherished Top (F)
Cherished Half Skirt
Sunlit Roman Sandals
TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS:
I am having a real rough day today and tomorrow (Thurs and Fri) My 11 year old Male Shar Pei, who is my baby... Has 5 obstructions in his stomach.
The surgery would cost $800-$1000 and I can't do it... No one has that kind of money right now...
If everything went smoothly. She doesn't believe that it could go smoothly because it has been 6 days, he is way dehydrated, and he has lost so much weight in these 6 days that she is afraid he wouldn't even make it through surgery to begin with...
I have made an appointment and 11:30 am to put him down.
I had Cliff call me and he can't be here as there are only 2 people in his office normally and his boss has a meeting in Olympia tomorrow so he has to work...
Please go real easy on me for the next few days!
I can't smile right now but HUGS to my loved ones, you know who you are!

I see that you are selling a Crescent Moon. I'd be willing to pay 325 gold for it. I've always wanted one. :)
EDIT: I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I know what that's like. I had to have my dog put down several years ago. It's not easy. My only consolation was knowing that we were stopping her from suffering. I'll be praying for you. *hugs*

First thank you for your kindness... I kind of need it right now...
I made a kind of selfish choice... I just don't think that I can do it alone and then a 35 minute drive back home.
I put it off until tomorrow so that I can find someone to go with me and hold my hand. The vet gave him some liquids and pain meds so he won't hurt to bad and that is to tide him over...
Second your offer is wonderful and I will start the trade so that when you come back it will be right there for you...
I hope that you have a great day!
