I was gonna order a steak salad, the usual, because it's healthier for me, but after seeing Kim's meal, I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with the works. It came with fries too. Now that I made a pig of myself, I feel guilty:-( Oh, well, it's not like I always order a bacon cheeseburger when I go out.

Hey Jacqui, did you read my first reply to Grandpa turtle? I asked if he was mail or female

I thought you would have got that. The real funny part was that I didn't even think of using the homonym. That's just the way I typed it. I was gonna change it, but then decided to leave it because it was an honest mistake that made me laugh.

Jacqui said:
So Sibi what did you order for supper?

RosieRedfoot · Aug 16, 2013

Lol no Asian. Besides, if I were Asian and named Kim I'd probably be male. I'm white as can be from a background of German, Dutch, and Irish descent.

Was going to make baked crab rangoons with it but I realized my crab meat that I picked up was expired so I didn't have time to return it before dinner. Will make those Sunday.

sibi · Aug 16, 2013

Oh, I can bring on the wine, but I only like red wine. I could use some right now to burn all the fat I just consumed.

Grandpa Turtle 144 said:
Ok Sibi I'm at work but I didn't know if white or red wine went with frosting but you had the right idea . And my grandkids say my name is grandpa and I'm well over 50 yrs. but I still thick if you bring the wine we should admit we are the ones that are after her frosting

Who would've guessed? Wow, so you're a mutt. We'll I think the whole world is filled with mutts of people. But, what matters is how one cooks! Now, those are skills worth having. When would be a good time to visit you?

Pretty sure most Americans like myself are mutts.

The next few weeks they have me working nearly full time hours. Just means I can recoup the dog food costs quicker and put more money into savings.

Hello and I' m a junky for sugar, sprinkles, frosting ,honey ,and decaf tea but don't tell nobody

And you let my dog look guilty

sibi said:
Oh my...those pics of Rand are precious. I'm so glad that he's improving because this had to be tough for everyone. Poor Rob...those were tears of joy, but believe me they were also tears of stress, fear, and all the emotions that one has but doesn't always express came all out then. It was a healing for him and I'm glad he got that out of his system. I'm beside myself with joy that Rand will be fine and you all will get back to being a normal family again.

I wanted to ask, Jacqui, how does one get to go and/or be part of TSA?

Kerryann, why didn't you need to get open heart surgery with an enlarged heart?

Cowboy, how the heck are you?

This can't be you. So, which dog went for the pantry?

Kerryann said:

Pantry invader struck again and she got sugar, sprinkles, frosting, honey, and decaf tea bags. Oy vey

My cardiologist did an experimental treatment that worked using medication. Ozzie looked innocent but he was probably involved though Cici broke in and pulled stuff down.

Jacqui said:
Sibi you can join the TSA. I can't recall the cost, but then you get a magazine yearly and emails quite often. The symposium is open to anybody I think, atleast all members an attend. Next year will be sorta in your neighborhood... Daytona.

Kerryann... the mouse is back?

I have a major weakness for frosting myself, especially homemade buttercream.

Huge brown mouse that smells like a hot sack of fritos. The same mouse threw up on my bedroom rug

Jacqui I know where to find some frosting . You bring the wine . But I don't know white or red?

I have lots of whine I could bring... oh!!!! you want the wine that goes with cheese and apparently frosting. Seriously I am always the person who looks for the piece of cake with the thickest layer of frosting on it.

You'd love to be my so. I hate v frosting so I scrape it off and give it to Mikey

Tonight we went to a new vegetarian southern restaurant for a second time and i had vegan sloppy Joe and fried okra. Omg it was so yummy. The owner came over to talk to us and I found out they are kosher and I was like dude why aren't you advertising that? So my neighbor does social media management for the local Jewish community resources so i sent her a text and it got tweeted and Facebook spread.
He gave us a free vegan brownie and it was so yummy.
I love having yummy vegetarian good mmmm.. So if I can send him some black hat I'm in.

Don't EVER feel guilty for celebrating the High Holy Day of Bacon Sunday early. It is as it should be. Who are we to question the inner cravings of BACON? We are not worthy.

RosieRedfoot · Aug 16, 2013

Just FYI Kerryann, rodents can't vomit. They lack the ability which is why poison works well. Too bad it can poison all your other pets and any kids too. So it's not mouse vomit you found. Might be from the other end or a different critter.

No, I thought her mouse was back. She (KerryAnn) said it was really the two dogs.. one (CiCi) who most likely got the items down and then the other one who is a lab and was humorously being called a "big brown mouse" (who also did the vomit) was the major eater she thinks. I think I remember this in the correct order.

RosieRedfoot · Aug 17, 2013

Ah ok, makes much more sense! Yeah, all my food stuffs are kept up high for that very reason... Two labs and a once stray boxer means all food is fair game.

Jacqui is on to my antics.
I hate being allergic to everything

pugsandkids · Aug 17, 2013

Oh, I'm so happy to hear that Rand is doing so well. What a harrowing week!

Jacqui · Aug 17, 2013

I hope Erin gives us an update and it is even better news then the last go round. Nothing is worse then one of your babies is sick and this was a bad sick at that.

Hi, we are home!! It is really scary being home so I haven't been doing anything but following him around! We were discharged last night after he had a clear chest x-ray and echo. He still has fluid in his chest which is very common after open heart surgery so he will need a high dose of lasix twice a day for the next week until his follow up with his surgeon. The x-ray tech let me take a pic of his 6 sternal wires that our holding his sternum together. I will post it, it's cool! Other than that everything is good!! I will post some pics. We made a book for him last night showing the whole process. Rob had asked our anesthesiologist who has been our friend for a long time to take a pic while he was in the OR for Rands book and he did and it is soooo cool too! Anyway we are on the other side and I am pretty sure it can only get better from here

.

Here is what he was able to do in his last 2 days in the hospital...

And then home <3

ImageUploadedByTortForum1376772166.340152.jpg

Oh yeah and as promised his X-ray showing his 6 beautiful sternal wires that will not set off air port alarms

ImageUploadedByTortForum1376772479.376840.jpg

Speaking of food I am having veggie pot stickers for dinner! I'm excited because I haven't eaten a lot in a week but all of a sudden I am starving so we are making a bunch of different things with my inlaws to eat tonight, yay!!!

Jacqui · Aug 17, 2013

Your hungry... a sign that you too are on the road to recovery. It is just so awesome and amazing that he is home already!! (mentally doing a happy dance). Nothing makes you feel better then being home again. Rand is a Superkid with a SuperMom (and DAd) behind him. Reading this, is jus sch a great way to end my day.

Rand's home!!!!!!

Cowboy_Ken · Aug 17, 2013

Yay happy for Rand and family!!!!!!!

Did you here the one about the cowboy that walked in the bar with his tortoise out for all the world to see?

He's such a sweety. You can see it in the pics.
I'm so hungry. We were gonna get dinner and went to meet our friend in traffic and now we are stuck in the cruise which is in full force. I only ate breakfast and probably 200 calories at that

Thank's Jacqui! Yes, the ice cold feeling is leaving my body and I am warming up and I was all of a sudden so hungry. But, now after eating everything in sight I am regretting it!!

Cowboy_Ken · Aug 17, 2013

That was the bar at the holiday inn where the reptile show was today. The bar tender gal was trying to get me to turn the tortoise loose on the dance floor.

Oh I have the pic for you folks. I saw this today out at the dream cruise and let me just say that I wanted one.

Here's my friend in his Rossion.

sibi · Aug 17, 2013

Oh boy, I'm doing the happy dance!! Happy homecoming Rand and Erin and Rob. Glad to hear all is good. Erin you have lots to make up as far as food is concerned. You probably lost 10 pounds in the past few days. You can afford to pig out.

Hey Cowboy, nice pic of you and the bigg'en. What's his name? How much does he weight.
