Janet's Jabberings

Nothing real exciting happened today. Ellie is back to herself in full force! She thinks she is starving all the time, which she probably is...she lost a lot of weight. She is supposed to be on a special diet...small amounts of special food 3 or 4 times a day. So far we have stuck to it but had to add a little more or else she's trying to get into the trash because she's so hungry. We didn't do much today, Randy got up early to go cougar hunting but came home around 9:30 and hadn't got anything. He said he saw all kinds of other animals and wants to take me out there tomorrow EARLY in the morning. I'm not a morning person so I don't know how well that is going to go over...we'll see. I would love to take some pictures but not at the expense of my nice warm bed! We went to the Gun Show today and somehow I came home with a $10 jar of jam and he came home with a gun and LOTS of ammo! I'm not sure exactly how that worked! Oh well...it makes him happy and then when I want to spend money he can't say much HAHA! Tonight he made dinner, which he cooked ONE of the many steelhead in the freezer. It was hard keeping Ellie away from it, she really wanted some! I don't know if I ever put on here what exactly made her sick...it was Salmon Poisoning! Dogs are the only animals that can get it and it is from eating raw salmon, steelead and couple other things. It is an micro organism that gets into a parasite that gets into the fish and the if the dog eats it, the dog gets it and it wreaks havoc on them. Crazy! So don't feed your dogs raw steelhead or salmon...we learned the hard way! Not much else to say except that I'm glad we're setting the clocks forward because that means it won't get dark so early and since it decided to snow again tonight I'm REALLY looking forward to more sunshine!!!
