NOW....AS YOU KNOW AROUND HERE YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ONE MALADY A DAY..-- OTHERWISE WE WOULD NEVER GET ANYTHNG DONE....-- WELL MY ALL CONSUMNG PROBLEM IS... MY TOE-- NOT MY BIG TOE... BUT THE SECOND TOE... LEFT FOOT -- VERY TIP--HOT? BURNING? DARN SORE...I CAN LIVE WITH THE PAINFUL TIPPY TOE DURING THE DAY,... BUT IT KEEPS ME AWAKE AT NIGHT...HAVE YOU ANY IDEA WHAT IT IS LIKE TO GO INTO A DOCTOR'S OFFICE AND SAY " THE TINY TIP OF MY SECOND TOE IS PAINFUL" ? MOST DOCTORS TRY AND KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE AND LOOK AT MY TOE IN EARNEST SAYING "IT LOOKS ALL RIGHT TO ME" THEN SUGGEST ANYTHING FROM OXYCONDN TO XRAYS......NOT ACCEPTABLE TO ME. I HAVE CUT OFF AS MUCH AS I DARED-- AND REMOVED ALOT OF THE NAIL IN AN EFFORT... NO DICE...
I REALLY NEVER HAD THE NERVE TO BOOK A DR VISIT JUST FOR "THE TOE", BUT BEING AN 'OLDER WOMAN" I USUALLY SAY "WANNA SEE MY TOE?" WHICH PROVIDES THEM WITH A CHUCKLE I AM SURE.
SO MY NEXT RESORT IS MY EQUINE VETERNARIAN... BRYAN...BECAUSE HORSE PEOPLE HAD A SOLUTION TO PAINFUL FEET IN A HORSE.. LIKE NAVICULAR DISEASE-- WHERE THEY SIMPY CUT THE NERVE TO THE FOOT AND HORSES "GOES SOUND" PAIN GONE.... -- NOW IN CASE ANY OF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY A HORSE TODAY.... YOU SHLULD CHECK THE 2 BUMPS IN THE BACK OF THE FRONT FEET TO BE SURE THERE ARE NO SCARS INDICATING THE HORSE HAS BEEN "NERVED" -- IF IT IS AN OLDER HORSE - NOT BEONG RACED OR JUMPED... BUT RIDING IN QUIET CIRCLES IT IS A VERY REASONABLE SOLUTION.
BEING AN OLDER WOMAN INCLINED TO SIT AROUND IN CIRCLES.....IT SEEMS TO ME A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO MY SECOND TOE...
I DON'T KNOW OF A "HOT TOE" MEDICAL SPECIALIST TO GO TO...-- I DO KNOW ALOT OF DOCTORS LEFT OVER FROM BEING MARRIED TO ONE- AN D OF ALL THOSE, THERE IS ONLY ONE WHO WOULD HAVE THE INTELLECTUAL CREATIVITY TO CONSIDER COMMENTIN G ON MY SOLUTION... PETER----OFTEN HAS GREAT ADVICE...BUT HE NO LONGER KEEPS A CHART ON ME-

GOT TO BE CAREFUL OF THOSE "CHARTS" I WAS INSTRAMENTAL IN SETTING UP A VET'S OFFICE ONCE, AND STARTED THE IDENTIFICATION OF TEH "QUALITY OF THE PET OWNER" BY HAVING THE VETS PUT A SMALL CIRCLE WITH A DOT IN THE MIDDLE ON THE BACK OF A CHART TO INCDICATE A PART OF THE ANATOMY WHICH DOES NOT OFTEN SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY. I LIVE IN FEAR OF SOME MEDICAL DR CONSIDERING ME A TOTAL LUNATIC. I TAKE PRIDE IN BEING "DIFFERENT" .. BUT THIS TOE THING IS BEYOND THE FRINGE...
***
SO IN THE MEANTIME, I FIND THAT MY COWBOY BOOTS WITH THE LONG POINTY TOE GIVE THAT #2 TOE ROOM TO DO IT'S OWN THING..
BRINGING ME TO THE FYI OF THE DAY.... CO WBOY BOOTS ARE WONDERFUL THINGS... HAVING WORN MANY AS BARN BOOTS FO R MANY YEARS - ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO I BOUGHT A PAIR OF LUCHESE BOOTS.. THEY ARE THE "COACH LEATHER' OF COWBOY BOOTS.
FURTHERMORE, I FIND THAT THE SLIGHT 1.5 INCH HEEL MAKES ME STAND UP STRAIGHTER.
SO WHEN YOU GO BY BOOTSW TODAY, YOU WILL ALSO NEED A BOOT JACK THING ON THE FLOOR WHICH WILL PULL OFF YOUR BOOTS VERY NICELY;

I am a silent CP that has been watching the cameras and reading the Daily Doggie for years now. In reading today’s Daily Doggie, I felt that you should know that the Asian community eats jellyfish. I am Chinese and enjoy eating jellyfish dishes. I can’t say that eating it on occasion is helping my memory as my memory is pretty bad. Maybe I don’t eat it often enough? And in case you are wondering, jellyfish are rather tasteless and has a crunchy with a little bit chewy texture. The ingredients and spices added to the dish is what makes it taste good.
Here is a link to an article on Wikipedia if you are interested in reading more about the consumption of jellyfish:
Thank you for letting me peer into some of the operations of SDP. I enjoy watching and is very educational.
