Babee the baritone.

We have three pets.
They are a big part of our family.
Our babies....
One is a boxer.
She is so sweet.
When she first got here, she had been damn near, starved to death.
She is now a healthy and muscular dog.
She is still smaller than she should have been.
Her growth was stunted.
But not her voice.
When she barks, it is louder and deeper than a dog twice her size.
We also have a kitten, that is a little guy.
Someone just dropped him off, at the back of our building.
He has paws like a rabbit-long.
He has the attitude of a cat three times his size.
The dog that is the biggest, is the biggest baby.
I love these cool attributes of these babies.
It is wonderful.
Everyone should have the honor and joy of having pets.
Babies........big, small, loud and more.
It is a big responsibility and a big time, most days.

Sharing info can save you money.

I live and work on an... 11 acre place. It can be alot of work......I have not been on for a while. Sorry.
I moved to a very quaint area, in Nov. of 2010. and never really looked back.
One thing that most people cannot understand, is that, if you have three rescues, and one gentleman that rescued you, to care for--an outside job doesn't really work out so well.
Don't get me wrong-I love people and interacting, with same.....but..........
Forget that gas is astronomical and the nearest town is 10 miles away......
 I mean I already have a job, with overtime, right here.
Just dog walking, in 22 degree weather, takes the stuffins right out of you...x 2. Whew!
However, I would love to share info that may be of a valuable nature to anyone out there reading.
Yesterday, while calling around for the best price on medicine-without insurance paying for it:
ALWAYS-ALWAYS call ahead, of going, to make sure any place, has your medicine in stock.
Sams Club-----if you join that day--takes 40% off the price of your meds!!!!!
So, you can pay $35 for a biz membership, ( you can upgrade to the premium membership level later if you want) that day, and save 40% on your  prescription, (this is  the discount).
Every other place had the medicine at  3 times this amount. Goodness!
Another place with savings....$4 meds. can be found at  Kroger------However----Warning--the price of the same med., with different dosage amounts, can be alot more.
You have to pay attention-
-------if the dosage is 1 pill at 40mg., twice a day
-------they may have the $4 savings on a 20 mg. pill
-------so you literally have to get your doctor to work with you
-------to write the script as 20mg., 4 times a day
-------versus 2 pills at 40 mg., per day.
You would know, that you would take the pills, twice a day.
This can be a bit confusing, however, the savings can be as great as $100 per prescription!!!!!
Sometimes, if you have a chronic condition and go to a web-site, for the pharmaceutical company that supplies your medicine, your doctor can write a letter that will have them supply the meds. at a substantial discount, or for free. Wow!
And, if you are prescribed medicine that is a new prescription, most companies will offer a coupon for your first fill.
And your doctor is often able to offer you a sample of the medicine, before you fill your prescription-The pharmaceutical reps. leave these with the doctor when new meds. come on the market.
At this point, it is all about savings.
With gas prices so high...to drive to the doctor, for us, is a huge expense.
Anyway, any day, we can save on high costs for anything, it is a very good thing.
I mean, unless the elves show up  ( Harry Potter) it looks like I have some serious chores to accomplish today and every day.
I won't bore you. I wish I didn't have to bore me.....hmmmmm. lol.
I will say, any helpful info sent my way is sooooooo welcome.
Happy 12-12-12.......hope you all have a great day!
