That's a nice sized area
Thanks. We are on two acres and trying to grade most of the back flat for new tortoise area where the container is and a garage where the tortoises are now.
That's a nice sized area
I'm about 50/50 on that one.
I'm waiting to see if my back issues can be resolved first.
Thanks Lyn,Hope those white blood cells start to climb again, and keep you on track for your prosthetic.
It could be your body fighting the infection making you tired - inside you is a battle ground at the moment !!
I'm cheering the good guys on!
Hope you feel better soon Ray.
Thanks Ellie May. Not sure if diabetes would make things harder to heal..Well you know we are all praying for you. Do you have other conditions that weaken your immune system? I know your so ready to get your mobility back. Sending out good vibes and warm e-hugs!
Much better thanks.How’s your heart doing?
Much better thanks.
I'm avoiding phenylalanine and a lot of caffeine and the tachycardia has not been an issue.
The two ablations also helped. All of that seems to have settled down. Even when there is an onset, it isn't as bad as it used to be.
My biggest issue now is my back.
I mean, we know he’s going to Arkansas.
I’m gradually moving southwest down the map you’ve so helpfully posted[emoji85].
(I really hope he won’t get to the other side anytime soon! [emoji33])
Oh man. . . I love trees and the shade they provide. Why do they have to go?We have some progress on the trees being cut down.
My hope is that I don’t have to take down the tortoise pen before the container is removed.
That would be a huge pain in the butt!

Aw, what a nice bed for that big doggie!I wanted to give an update on Sheldon our Great Dane. The surgery went well. It took an hour and a half LONGER than expected. Doctor thinks he got it all. He has some drains left in to be removed next week and stitches removed in two weeks. He is awake and just chilling in the back with the staff. He has crate anxiety so they won’t crate him. We are picking him up today.
You can see the cyst in the picture and I included a pic without the cyst.

I like the idea because they don't need dirt plugging up their little belly. I've never seen my little girl boxie hiss and pull her head in like that. My tortoise does even though he's used to me. Once he knows it's me he's begging not doing the hissy fit. He will let anyone give him a shell rub.. Could it be because she's older? Or used to people? She is still timid and I don't bother her if she's wanting to eat. She doesn't do the hiss and hide. She chirps when she eats.My boxie definitely prefers earthworms from under her turtle pool, vs. right out of a store bought container. I like to think that rinsing them off makes them taste better to her. It cleans off the debris and may also wash off any defensive secretions designed to make the red wigglers unpalatable.
Red wigglers survive submerged for a few hours, longer if parts of the earthworm surface for air. Junior prefers eating her earthworms in the water.
Husband made it for me to fit a baby bed mattress. He has torn up so many dog beds. This was the solution. Also, baby bed mattresses can usually be found free from friends that are done having kids. I even had a couple in my attic at the time.Aw, what a nice bed for that big doggie!
I have had 2 surgeries on my lower back. I just went thru injections in the L4, L5, S1 area. They have made things tolerable. I didn't want anymore surgery's. I have had enough.Much better thanks.

I foresee it coming every time I pick up my largest sulcata.Join the club
I I had two surgeries L3/L4. The scarring is what causes me to move unnaturally and gets me into other problems with my back on a regular basis. There are so many of us with back problems in the CDR![]()
Yes!!!![]()
