Re: I'm exhausted


Cathy: Thanks for the offer. This time though, we're planning on being
back home by about 1 or so in the afternoon to relieve Grandma of the
babysitting. But next time we go down that way, I'll definitely give you
a holler!

Next time you head for St Louis, Melody, let me know. From what I can
<br>figure about routes south from Iowa, you should be passing very
close <br>to me. I am committed for 4 hrs of volunteer work on Monday
AM, but <br>if you plan on cruising past Quincy, IL (I know, on the
Missouri side <br>of the river) after 12:30, let me know. You and your
family are <br>welcome to drop by!<br><br>Cathy, west central IL,

I'm<br>&gt;

exhausted&lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; I don't know anyplace
that's&lt;br&gt;&gt; snake-free <br>&gt; except<br>&gt; the Old Sod,
Andrea, so &lt;br&gt;&gt; doubt if running will&lt;br&gt;&gt; help. We
have<br>&gt; the deadly coral snake here, but &lt;br&gt;&gt; it's
shy--I've only&lt;br&gt;&gt; seen<br>&gt; one--and water moccasins.
Neither of them in &lt;br&gt;&gt; abundance. We&lt;br&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;
have lots of black snakes, king snakes, and rat snakes, &lt;br&gt;&gt;
but not<br>&gt; as&lt;br&gt;&gt; many as I would like--not enough to
keep the squirrel and <br>&gt; &lt;br&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;
opossum&lt;br&gt;&gt; populations down. We also have Burmese pythons
that <br>&gt; people<br>&gt; have &lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; wearied
of&lt;br&gt;&gt; &lt;br&gt;&gt; as pets and set free in the<br>&gt;
countryside. They are useful for &lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; keeping
feral pig<br>&gt; populations in check, but we need more
of&lt;br&gt;&gt;

them.&lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; On<br>&gt; Jul 12, 2005,

&gt; Chris, <br>&gt; you<br>&gt; are correct. She cannot
have<br>&gt;<br>&gt; antivenom&lt;br&gt;&gt; ever again. So, Eva,
&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; that&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; would be the<br>&gt; only
long-term&lt;br&gt;&gt; effect on her system. My Vet tried just
&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; <br>&gt; one<br>&gt; CC&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; on a
dog&lt;br&gt;&gt; that had antivenom before (in the case of<br>&gt;
another snake bite) &lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; and&lt;br&gt;&gt;
&gt; the poor dog went into<br>&gt; convulsions immediately. SO, I've
got&lt;br&gt;&gt; to be &lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; really&lt;br&gt;&gt;
&gt;<br>&gt; careful. I'll have to start doing snake&lt;br&gt;&gt;
patrols. Also, I'm <br>&gt; thinking<br>&gt; of&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;
moving from Beaufort, even though&lt;br&gt;&gt; I know there are<br>&gt;
poisonous snakes&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;

everywhere. We in the hot humid&lt;br&gt;&gt; areas <br>&gt;
just<br>&gt; seem to have an over &lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;
abundance&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; of them.&lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt;
<br>&gt; &gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;<br>&gt;&gt; On the hair Chris, Sorry
Pal, it's fixed. The alteration of&lt;br&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;
adding &lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; golden&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; blonde to the
pink-red worked and now<br>&gt; it's&lt;br&gt;&gt; back to fiery
copper,&lt;br&gt;&gt; &lt;br&gt;&gt; which &lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;
is&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; <br>&gt; what<br>&gt; I like. ;-)&lt;br&gt;&gt;

exhausted&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; Thanks Eva.
She seems&lt;br&gt;&gt; OK this morning<br>&gt; although the swelling is
still&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; there.&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt;
Here neck<br>&gt; area is the worst. It's like the fluid is stuck there.
&lt;br&gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt; She's&lt;br&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt; breathing OK though and I just gave her more<br>&gt;
benadryl&lt;br&gt;&gt; so I'm going to&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt; go
to&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; work. I think she<br>&gt; should be OK.
My&lt;br&gt;&gt; Vet is convinced the antivenom &lt;br&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt; saved&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; her. I'm
just&lt;br&gt;&gt; glad she's OK.&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;<br>&gt; Andrea,&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&gt; &gt;&gt;
That's wonderful&lt;br&gt;&gt; news! Thank goodness
