 >> tired Lol)  The difference in travel time isn't that extensive.. but it
 >> IS closer than going to Ithaca 
 > And how did it go...?  Did the dogs like the new vet...?  and was he
 > able to help them....?

 JK> It was great.. the man is fantastic.  He's a farmer in Candor, NY, who
 JK> is also a vet, (he has to take care of his own animals :)).  He was
 JK> talking to us about his practice being a little um.. nonstandard.. for
 JK> instance he said there have been times when his cows get loose, and
 JK> he's got to cancel app'ts to go round up cows Lol.  He's a neat guy, we
 JK> like him, the dogs didn't object and even let him clip their nails
 JK> (thank god.. it's a trip for me to try to do it :) ) 

And the cats might even like him, then...  ;)

 JK> He scheduled Indy for surgery for his cyst in two weeks, and took care
 JK> of all their flea problems, thank goodness... He treated sophie's rash
 JK> with something immediate and also gave her an antibiotic because of the
 JK> cuts she's given herself.. (I was glad he was so thorough).

He does sound good...  :)

 >> is very very helpful.  It's not especially cheap having them come 3x
 >> a week, but it's necessary.  That leaves me to generally take care
 >> of the kitchen, and that's fine with me :)
 > Sounds like it's well worth the cost... is she able to help out with
 > the cost...?

 JK> Yes, though we've been taking care of it for her.  I think she
 JK> suggested she could cover some of it.
 
I suppose you might let her help... give her a sense of some
independence... 
 
 > So she's in the room with the doorway at right angles to the bathroom
 > door, and next to the door to the living room...?  That's convenient...

 JK> haha yes, you remember :)  That's right where she is.  So when I'm in
 JK> the kitchen, she'll come out ... she is very sleepy though, and I can
 JK> understand that.

When she smells the wafting of delectible odors, she's in a prime
position to easily check things out...  ;)  Give her a reason to wake up
for a bit... :)
 
 >> 'pumpkin bake' out in the garden area, never figuring they'd take.. but
 >> voila.. there it was :) :)
 > A bonus plant...  :)  Did it seed true...?

 JK> Sure did.. it was a great fresh organic pumpkin Lol
 
Neat...  :)

 >> were ones Ron picked up for me at Wegmans... As you can see no doubt,
 >> my pumpkin is the one that is 'better, faster, stronger' Lol
 > I'll go see if I can view it..... :)

 JK> Hopefully you did.. :)  It's now been allocated to pie and pumpkin
 JK> bread Lol 

Not yet, but as long as the picture is still up, maybe I'll see it... :)
Meanwhile, you get to enjoy what you made of it...  :)

 >> only deliver one meal every day, Mon-Fri. So.. I always have a lunch
 >> for her no matter what, and either I make dinner every night, or we
 >> order out.. Oh and Ron actually made a sous vide steak a couple of
 >> times 
 > Yes, those delivered dinners/lunches can easily pile up... ;)  My
 > neighbor was getting them for a while...  :)  As long as she can and
 > will eat what you're getting yourself, she might as well eat with you
 > and Ron for at least one meal a day.... :)

 JK> We all eat together every night at dinnertime.

That's good...  :)
