Jasper (12 yr old Mini Schnauzer) is now at peace

Gosh, that sounds like that was quite the storm for you with trees down everywhere! Do you guys have storms like that often?

Hopefully no laundry room for us tonight, they're not saying that the storms are tornado producing, however they do have some pretty high straight-line winds which can be quite damaging. The weather guys have interrupted the TV programming of course to run nonstop weather updates now since we are actually under a warning now. They're saying it could be up to 70 mile-per-hour winds as the line moves in. The tornado warning sirens will go off if they are that high, and that sets the pups off. Looks like it is very fast-moving this time, which is a good thing.

The radar is showing that it's quickly bearing down on us, so I'm just sitting here waiting for the blast! :rolleyes: :eek:

Are your bosses generally good? They probably just trying to think in advance what will be needed to cover you.

Why do you get a calcium deposit like that? Is that unusual? I don't think I have heard of that happening, but then I am no orthopaedic expert lol... going to see one on Tuesday though for Dad's checkup, I might just ask him about calcium deposits in wrists coming out of the blue like this! :D

Yep, Flynn would handle Shelby. When he was with the little Scottie dog last weekend, she was not real friendly either. He just ignored her :eek: she came around and they had a bit of a romp together :)

Yes, my manager is generally very good, I like her very much. I'm probably just being a little sensitive about everything. However she does have two weeks of vacation scheduled in July, right during the time when I'm probably looking at having this done. So I'm sure that probably influenced her reaction a bit. :o

I asked the doctor about the cause of the calcium deposit, and he said it's just something that happens in your body. Of course my first thought was the calcium supplements that I take on the advice of my regular doctor caused it somehow. He said absolutely not, it wasn't anything that I did or didn't do with my diet or otherwise, that it's just something that happens. He didn't act like it was all that unusual, but I have never heard of it either Trish. I feel like it did happen out of the blue, I have never had problems with either one of my wrists, much less something as severe and painful as this!

Oh, let me know what your dad's doctor says if you get a chance to ask, that would be very interesting.

I keep getting hot flashes off and on, LOL. I'm pretty sure it's the prednisone!

Or menopause :eek: most likely Pred, are you hungry? If so you can come have dinner with me, pork, roast spuds, salad! Not very inspiring :) Can you feel the calcium in there?

Where is the weather radar your looking at so I can come on storm patrol with you!

We do not get many storms, not like that one. I rained solid for 3 days, not just drizzly either. Won't have to water the garden for a while!

LMAO!! Yes, I thought that it could be menopause, but it seems kind of fishy that the hot flashes have been bothering me for about the last week and a half since I started the prednisone! :D :rolleyes::p

I haven't been too hungry thankfully, I know that's a big side effect. Your dinner sounds yummy, wish I could come. I just had a bowl of strawberry ice cream. not something I typically do at 2 AM, LOL. :D

I can't really feel a lump where the calcium deposit is, but that's the part of my wrist where it first got painful and that's the area that still has pain.

The weather app that I have is called my radar, that's what I'm using. but I think you could probably go online and look at either AccuWeather or the Weather Channel maybe? It is blowing through right now, and it seems like it has weakened quite a bit, yay! That is great, because typically when things blow through late night like this they usually are quite severe.

I am looking at accuweather and there is quite a wide band of storms!! :eek::eek:

Yes, it is unfortunately. Looks like it might be a long night. :eek: Although it seems like it has weakened, at least the part that's rolling through now. hopefully what's still coming won't be severe. Both dogs are snoring on the couch. Can't complain about that! :D

Looks like it is going to get bad in half an hour or so, let me know if the wind starts picking up!! Looks like it is only going to be bad for an hour or so... then the green lines are back!!

It is picking up a little bit right now again. I don't like the red area that is still to the west, I wish that was already past. My brother lives in Wichita Kansas, it looks like they're getting hammered right now.

Gosh, I better hit the hay pretty soon and try to get some sleep. I need to get a bunch of stuff done tomorrow. It takes me twice as long to do any cleaning or chores babying this dang wrist. :rolleyes:

Yay, looks like it has changed, back to yellow with a tiny bit of orange then green coming.... red is all gone on my one. That is if I am looking at the right thing! http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/oma...orecast/349291
