Jackie, glad to hear Gucci is getting better.  I was hoping she was going to have as easy a time of it as Sadie did, but she didn&#39;t have her dew claws removed.  Did the vet send pain meds home with her?  Glad you are enjoying Texas - I really do miss it.   I am going to meet friends for lunch tomorrow - once the work on the kitchen commences on Monday, I may be housebound during the day for quite some time.  I don&#39;t think I would be comfortable going off and leaving people in my house.  Don&#39;t forget to turn your clocks back on Saturday night - yes, you will lose an hr. of sleep then but think of that extra hour of light when you get home from work.......
