So as I was out in the kitchen finishing getting all the items finished for dinner, I started feeling a little light headed and like I needed to sweat. I stopped what I was doing, took 3 low dose aspirin, and got my legs up in the recliner. After ~1/2 hour was fine. No clue what that was all about. Broke out the BP cuff and registered a 159/85. Both a little higher than normal for me. Normal is ~134/82. I ran out of my main BP med yesterday so had no pill for today. I'd called the VA to order quite a bit ago, but they haven't arrived yet. Hopefully they'll be here tomorrow :fl

So after I finished getting everything ready, I had created a concoction of ACV/honey/water which was recommended for Beauty for her scours. Went down and when I caught her, her butt was completely clear. I don't know if Mel took care of it or what. He still looks after them even now that they are almost adults. Several of them he really likes to clean their ears. Anyway, attached her to the fence and drenched her with the mixture. Will still keep an eye on her, especially at dinner time. Hope she eats. She wasn't pleased with the mixture all that much... Wasn't smelling all that appetizing to me either considering the meal I had in the works...

After that was done, came in and washed hands and here I sit eating some dinner.

Green bean casserole, garlic smashed spuds with skins, gravy, turkey of course, home made stuffing, candied yams (I do NOT like them baked with marshmallow! :sick) and jellied cranberry sauce. I have a plate I'm eating from right now, with a little of everything. :drool Not sure if the dogs are going to get any of these scraps tonight... might hold off till tomorrow. But I'm sure they smell it and they KNOW what that means at some point. :love That about does it from me here. Happy Thanksgiving all.

Well, night feeding chores are done. Beauty ate her pellets OK. A little slower than normal but no hesitation. She also fought with her sisters over access to the hay bucket and ate well there. Also saw her drink water at the trough afterwards. No indication of scours on her rear. I have no idea what it was all about, but seems to have passed. Maybe something she ate? :idunno I never did make or get any desserts... Guess I'll just got grab some recliner and see if the dead skins can breath more life into the cowboys... :tongue
