I have caught 3 people taking a picture of my sticker and one lady waited for me to get to my car to ask where I got it.

ICE would raid the manger, shoot the sheep in the head, beat the donkey dead, save the baby cow and name it Bubba, pepper spray baby jebus and mommy, tazer and knee to the neck of daddy, tie them all up and haul them all off to be stoned to death the next day.

Ziggy's glucose

Ziggy's glucose

I am keeping him locked up in my office with me today. I took him with me to get lunch. This is a no poop day with his glucose. It was kinda sad. The guy at the drive thru gave us a pup cup and he can't have it.

This is a "didn't eat poop and apparently gave him a micrometer too much last night" kind of morning.

He was about 17lbs before diabeetus. He hovers around 12.5lbs now.

Last summer I told my financial guy to never put my money in Tesla. He agreed.

I screwed up somehow on his right ear and it filled with fluid and scabbed up. His left ear got a LOT of abuse while it healed up. Thankfully his right ear is back to normal and can go back to getting tested.

I look at the diabetic dog Facebook group and there are people on there that just have no desire to keep their dog healthy and then complain.n They never test or let the vet test every six months. I test Ziggy constantly. His ears look like a warzone.

Just broke my heart seeing him like this. He had 3 IVs in his neck. Fluids to feed, insulin, fentanyl.

Ziggy was about $8k in vet bills at the start. They called his cage "the one that pays the bills"

I have him on a full raw diet. I add in calcium, methyl b-12, fiber, prebiotic, protein powder, powdered cranberries & pumpkin. His afternoon snack is diced radishes and pumpkin puree. He gets ~4.5 units of Novolin N. Glucose is all over if he eats poop. 100s to 200s if he doesn't.

I rubber band hunt all day on my Switch 1 & 2. Trying for Absol & Eevee on a roof overnight. So far one Eevee and 3 Ralts. I did pause to check today and got a rainbow.

I saw the first one when I was a third grader. Had nightmares about it for a long time.

I was pretty annoyed with the vets when he got it. He was in full DKA and spent 3 days in the expensive cage. They then tell me he will be blind in six months and dead in 2 years.

Fuck that.

He will have a long happy life with vision if I can help it.

He is only five. Got the diabeetus back in March.

He must be really concerned. Maybe even disappointed.

Ziggy started out great today. He did find some poops to eat which sent his glucose crazy. He is still happy now that he got dinner and insulin.

Got the auto-ship for Ziggy's testing strips. Pretty positive that Chewy has smaller shipping boxes.

My friend in high school had an orange 240Z. My mother had an orange 260Z. I learned to drive in that car.
