dlbutler5 Posted December 5, 2012 #8401 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Barb is out of surgery. Doc said all went well and she would be here 3 to 5 days. We won't know if it was cancerous for about week. I will keep you good folks updated as I find them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't know if it was cancerous for about week. I will keep you good folks updated as I find them out. Thank you so much for keeping us in the loop. Thank God everything is good so far. She needs to get strong, get up and walk and get lots of good hugs and kisses and reassurance that there are people who miss her and want to hear from her. Whatever the outcome, she has jumped hurdles before and this will just be one more hurdle for her. She's a warrior who can fight and she must. Please give her my love and my best wishes for her to be strong and I'll pray for an easy recovery for our gal Barbara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangeley Posted December 6, 2012 #8404 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Oh! No! About the pottybox ["Sawdust"? It's a dog not a guinea pig]......what a nightmare! We all know how easy it is to build the box in their woodshop....They need to go pick up some mulch [before the cruise], while the ship is in port [send someone to a nursery] and be ready for us when we board!!!!! Get a roll of painters plastic [the kind they lay down on the rug before they paint], cut it into 6x5 squares and lay them down, on top of each other in the box [one sheet per one week of cruise.] Fill the box with lots of mulch and after one week, pick-up the mulch by gathering all the corners, twist and toss. What is so hard about that? If it's only a one week cruise, only lay down one plastic liner. They can store the box against a wall [in the woodworking area] until the next dog boards. Copy and paste the above and fax it to the "Special Needs" or "Special Access" Dept. of your cruiseline. It's what I did with Princess years ago and I've NEVER had a problem with them since. Of course, I call Allison Muff [Princess "Special Needs"] 3 days before I board and I remind her to talk to the Hotel Manager and make sure all is set BEFORE I get on the ship so that my dog can go potty minutes after I find my cabin. Cindy, I know you know all of the above......it's really for folks who are reading this and are unfamiliar with what to do, who to ask, etc., etc. Believe me we have called special needs and it was still screwed up. I actually called ship services thinking maybe they were better and the woman put me on hold and told me they called access and compliance. Well I could have done that. :( On the bright side, I'm almost packed :D I have to wait til Lee gets here with his stuff, so I can shove some stuff in his bag. ;) I am pooped. Pedicure in morning then banking, last minute things, and the vet. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really deserve some extra "kudo's" for all that you do for your men.......with the dog included. Your my hero! They owe you big time!!!!!!

You really deserve some extra "kudo's" for all that you do for your men.......with the dog included. Your my hero! They owe you big time!!!!!! I'm excited too. But I have had cramps for 2 days so it's making packing alot harder. Yesterday I thought my back was gonna fall off. I'm gonna relax in the vibrating chair when I go for my pedicure. John is in his ridiculous mode, wanting to take and buy everything in the world. Now he needs those breathe strips, give him another minute and he will need something else. Wex has his vet today, besides the health certificate, CCI sent us their annual report to do so the vet will have to fill that out too. They are always so excited to see him, it's funny to see everyone taking turns coming into the room to visit and give some bellies. Tomorrow is bath and nothing else!!! I'm going to try to just relax. Saturday we have to go down to CT to get Lee. I think I need a vacation. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S. Cruisers Posted December 6, 2012 #8408 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Mornin' all: Cindy: I told my hubby to quite trying to find things for me to do. He has told me "Oh, get all the papers out for such and such and I'll do it." Yeah, right, the papers have been sitting on his "messy Marvin" desk for months. I ask him where something is and he says "I gave it to you!" Bad answer Cliffy. Then he does the pouty thing and says "Will you help me clean my desk?" "Yes, where is the trash can." Also, he took over the check book. We do that periodically. The one doing it gets sick of it and then we switch. Well that is fine and dandy, but he never balances it from the statements. Um, where do I start? Gotta love em, its illegal to kill em! Besides I told him that I wouldn't kill him, I would rather let him live and torture him! Did you ever see that movie " Misery"? With Kathy something? I refer to it. LOL. Ok, enough bending you eyes for now. You take care of yourself. If your back goes out, you may be SOL.

By the time you get on the ship you'll be too tired to enjoy it!!!!! The same thing happens when Horty goes to the Vet, the staff come in one at a time to love on him. With Brenda, she's always shaking so hard, they don't want to upset her anymore than she already is [such an alpha in every place in her life, except the Vet!] And the groomer is nuts about the way that CCI dogs take to bathing and nail cutting. I swear if they could talk they'd be doing the groomers nails. I'm always so proud of my dogs when it comes to this. CCI sure trains a good dog! I heard from Brenda's puppyraisers and their released dog, who helped to raise Brenda, just past away at the age of 15 years, in her sleep. Wow, I sure hope Brenny & Horty get such long and wonderful lives. Stop, take a breath.......Get Ready.....Get Set.....Go Cruising!!!!!! :) Edited December 6, 2012 by wizard-of-roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangeley Posted December 7, 2012 #8414 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Wexlers worst bath today!:mad: He was terrible. He usually just stands there and grunts but today he actually walked out of the shower all soapy. At one point I had to pin him against the wall. UGH Now he's all curled up on a towel and looking so innocent. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, you have to find a night job, it'll be easier than anything he gives you! I still wind-up going to the post office, the bank, the cleaners and anything else that he doesn't want to do! It's not that he's lazy, he just picks and chooses what he does or does not want to do!!!!!
