Some days are better than others

Yesterday was good-productive in the morning and afternoon-sorting, pitching, deciding what to pack. I had half a valuepack of chicken breasts left so I had soup and fried chicken going concomitantly. Going to cook a good supper for us. I brought Honey in and she promptly heaved. She had blood on her face early in the day so I knew she had been in something dead. Then my conversation with Harlan came to mind. Thayne was pretty certain somebody had poisoned his dog- off its chow for a day, antibiotics the second day, dead on the third day. Honey was dispirited and off her chow. Passing up a chicken breast is new behavior for her. So the worrying set in. I was ready for an early morning Vet trip. But she was eating by 11:00 p.m. and she was fine this morning. Buster meanwhile was coughing almost constantly. Back to the Internet. There is such a thing as ACE cough which is caused by heart medicine. A study in Korea found that modest iron supplements curb this cough in humans. So the liver came out and the juices, and he is a lot better. Now I am looking for iron supplements for dogs and will talk with the vet. Liver is cheap if push comes to shove. I do love my doggies.

I needed cigarettes so I went to town and also stopped in at the Verizon Store. Droids are arriving tomorrow! I have searched the web for every scrap of information-positive and negative, on the darn thing and I get one tomorrow-in advance of the 11/6 release date. Hope it remains a Droid and doesn't become a rhoid. I have another upgrade due me if this one is a bust. I keep waiting for Verizon to get the iPhone but for my purposes this one will surpass that. Should be able to blog from the phone.
