Baked Ground Beef Sambusas

After reading several recipes, I came up with my take on sambusas for an appetizer. Serves 6-8

The Vet Called with Luna’s Test Results

As feared, it is kidney disease. We will be giving her Enalapril once a day, as well as the prescribed dog food to help manage her renal failure. The vet also prescribed some medication for her to take before her subcutaneous fluid injection to help her relax. Hopefully, with the medication, the fluid injection won’t […]

Back from the Vet (Again)

January 27, 2020 We took Luna to her appointment to the vet today. The vet does not believe it is a kidney infection, but believes it is kidney disease. Luna was fine with them taking her blood pressure. She snuggled up against me and let them wrap the band around her leg. Then the vet […]

Surprise Call from Vet Today

January 26, 2020 We got a surprise call from the vet this morning. The vet wanted us to know the blood work came back early. Since she knew we were worried about Luna, she wanted to let us know right away what it showed. The news for Luna is not good. She is having kidney […]

Into the Pet Taxi

Here’s Nox getting into the pet taxi. She was so excited yesterday and Bruce was telling her “you wouldn’t be so excited if you knew where you were going.” Surprisingly, she didn’t seem to mind the trip to the vet. Normally, once we get to the vet, she becomes unhappy. This time, she was hyper […]

Back from the Vet

January 25, 2020 Well, we are back from the vet. They did blood work and they’ll let us know on Monday. Luna went from her normal 7 pounds to 4 pound and 10 ounces. Monday seems like a long way away. Nox is fine.

Taking the Dogs to the Vet

I’ve been rather worried about Luna recently. She has lost a bit of weight fairly suddenly. She is eating, but not as much as she did. So, we are taking the dogs for their yearly appointment early. We’ve got an appointment for both Luna and Nox tomorrow morning. Bruce and I checked Luna’s mouth to […]

Downsizing (6) Getting Rid of Blankets and Clothes

January 23, 2020 We’ve started getting rid of the non-fiction books. I’ve been bringing them into work over the last two weeks. They are moving slower than the fiction books. The people that are interested in the non-fiction books seem very appreciative to get them, but fewer people seem interested. I’m giving away my gardening […]

To the Park in the Truck

January 22, 2020 On Sunday (1/19), the weather was very nice. It was sunny with a few clouds, and the temp was in the high 40’s – low 50’s F. It seemed like a great time to take Luna and Nox out for their first ride in the new truck.

RV Discussions (Finding the RV 11)

January 22, 2020 After the RV show, we’ve done a bit of research on Riverstone. There doesn’t appear to be as much information about Riverstone RV, as there is about Grand Design. I think this is because there are way more Grand Designs out and about.
