The Grim Reaper took another swipe at me !!

How you doin Frenchie? I pulled an engorged tick out of my little Chloe's snout a couple of weeks ago. Best I can determine, it had been there about 3 days. First time ever. Disgusting...I thought it was a skin tag or something until I saw little feelers moving!

BS

Omg, our one dog when I was little was a mut with long curly hair and an outside dog (things were different back then) but omg, there were times I would find huge ones the size of grapes ready to pop! Eeew, I was the one who also cut her hair every summer, she looked like a short poodle sheepdog hair kinda mix.

Hope all is well Frenchie, hope to hear from you soon!

Think of you often, hope you are doing well, no pain and enjoying life as only Frenchie could.

EEww is right! They get big in your neck of the woods. This one was engorged, no larger than about 3/16", but I discovered it within 3 days. The problem w/my little Chloe is that she is immune compromised as it is. Bloodwork on Thursday shows she is again in remission from Myelodysplastic Syndrome (same as Robin Roberts) & no evidence of tick-borne disease (which the specialist says is rare anyway) based on normal to high platelet count...@ least @ this point. So Yippee Kayah there Whew Dodged that bullet.

Frenchie, where the heck are you hiding

Hello everyone.
I have been busy enjoying life lately and have neglected my friends on this forum.
I am bursting with optimism these days and I have no idea why. I feel like I'm about
to win the lottery or something. Everything is rosy and life is wonderful !

I have no ackes or pain of any kind, so that must play into this fantastic feeling.

I am still living full time in my motorhome. I am parked in town, fuelled up and
ready for the next adventure. It truly is a house on wheels and I love it. I plan on
venturing out on the weekend if the weather holds. Maybe Mrs Frenchie will join me,
she is good company on these trips. She has more spare time now.

I am planning a road trip with my oldest son after the labour day weekend. We will be
going to visit my second oldest son who lives in northern Alberta. It's about a 12 hr drive
door to door. We will be taking the scenic route which takes a little longer but is very picturesque. After all, half the fun is getting there !

[bitchslapped]

Sounds like a plan, Stan. If your son takes over the wheel, you can be the passenger this time, relax & enjoy the scenery!
I don't understand how you have no aches or pains of any kind. You must not be moving. Just playing w/ya

Frenchie, does your scenic route take you through Grande Cache? I just came by there a few days ago with the folks, beautiful drive!!! Glad to hear you are still doing well and staying so positive!! Can't wait to see pictures from your father/son trip!! I would share some from mine, but I did all the driving and moms pictures from the back seat are not that great! Thank goodness for memories!

Have a safe Journey buddy.
