Son was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection and loaded up with some antibiotics and a steroid.. in so thankful it wasn’t the flu. He hasn’t been sick in a long time so I was a little worried.. but we are in good shape now:)


Increase the heat, a good warm water soak, increase the humidity too.

“Almost” the same treatment for son or tortoise! :) Upper RI infection.

LIDL/GREENHOUSES: If anyone is looking for a green-house type enclosure to grow a heat/humidity loving tort, Lidl has a special this week of these little tents. Just saw them stacked up, for $25.00, they look nice. They look high enough to have a tub and have lights hanging inside.

I keep hearing something.... kinda like a HINT??? Was there some noise of similar nature on another thread too?? Or are my ears just sensitive to certain sounds right now [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848]

I'm almost positive the edema was due to the fact Jacques was on her back for such a long time. It was just absorbed water. The thing is to wonder why she couldn't turn herself back over.
That makes sense to me, Yvonne.
I agree: I wonder why she couldn't right herself... :confused:

All the snow is melting fast, and the sun has been shining brightly all day long. Garden is boot sucking yucky. Been working on finishing up our bowl... the shape is pretty much finalized. Now we start sanding - working up through the varios grit grades... 60, 80, 100, 150. I think I still have 200, 220, 240 and 300 to go, then some 00000 steel wool. Stain, wax, buff. Enjoy.

I sure hope everybody else is feeling better, because apparently it's my turn to be under the weather. :(

In Florida, under the weather has to mean something different right? :). Sunny skys, blue waves and horizons, perfect humidity for torts, your luxury pool/spa at the perfect temp!

Very cool. What do you do with all your talent productions when they’re finished?

Busy busy day here.
I think I’m caught up.
We’ve had rain and hail all day!
Today we drove 4 hrs round trip to drop our motor home off for some warranty work and the mountain tops were so pretty covered in snow.
I didn’t get any pics because I was driving.
Now I’m laying on the sofa with my doggies.

Weather in February in Florida can be notoriously challenging. Fires, floods, droughts, freezes... Technically they COULD occur all at the same time, believe it or not.

The weather patterns here move as quickly as they do through the UK, but Florida's weather packs a nastier punch. We tend to get more weather systems COLLIDING on top of us.

I think a perfect get well card to Lyn W should contain a Gain dryer sheet. Is that legal?
It may be tested to see if it's laced with LSD or something en route ;)
A prison here has just discovered that the inmates were smoking the pages from a Harry Potter book because the pages had been smeared with some drug or another!
I've googled Gain and any UK match, they said the nearest was DAZ also a P&G product.
