Puppies

Molly had puppies on the 18th. The event was.............interesting.
We checked her temp. at 4pm, and it had not dropped. We then went out to dinner, and came home. We went to bed at around 10. I woke up at 12:50 for a drink. Mom noticed molly had a pup!! I sat and watched until 2:30, then called the vet because she wasn't contracting. We made a 30min run to the vet in Council, and he gave her a shot of Oxytosin (sp?). She had the other 3 within 20mins. We thought she was done, so headed home. (I digress....We had her x-rayed on the 10th, we only counted 4 pups). We got home, the puppies settled and went back to bed. At around 7:45 mom heard Molly yelp, but nothing was going on. She went to get a drink, came back and there were 3 more!! So, we ended up with 7 females! They are so tiny and cute!

Later,

Transportation

Hello!
We just got back on Friday from Portland. We took off at 4am Wednesday and drove our '96 Windstar to trade it in for our new (to us) '98 Grand Caravan with the Braun/IMS conversion to where I just drive my chair into the passanger position, and go. No more lifting me into the seat, then loading the chair into the back with flimsy ramps. Now anyone can take me places!!
I also got a '79 Datsun 810 2-door coupe in July. It's a fun little project, but needs work to be reliable. I'll probably trade it off soon along with my truck, but not sure yet.
Weather is getting cold..........grrr.

Later....
