That's right folks, the "E" in "ER" stands for "Emergency", that means something really, really, really bad. What isn't an emergency? Well, a few hints would be... ~if you sit in the ER waiting room for more than an hour......

bleeding

broken toenail

emergency medical services

emergency room

ems

er

julieandpico Oh, I know WHY they do it. But there is actually research that migraine suffers can be treated more effectively in urgent care clinics (ie better pain control and fewer repeat visits), but I still keep ending up in the stupid ER. The only good thing about...

julieandpico Speakeasy - That is very true! Sometimes the tradeoffs can be to everyone's advantage though. For that matter, just because you pay for something doesn't mean you don't get a heavy pressure sales pitch or bombarded with ads. Cable TV has just as many ads as...

julieandpico We used to have a dog who had to have daily baths in the summer for allergies. I used to wash her with my brother - then a toddler. My mom always got mad at me, but I figured it wasn't like they weren't crawling in all the same places. Not the mention my...

julieandpico I think it's great! I have arthritis and sometimes drying between my toes is a problem, so it's wonderful to have Pico do it. Luckily her pawther doesn't mind either!

Dogster.com is one of my favorite websites. It's a social networking site for dogs and their owners, and it's also a great source of dog information. Do your dogs have Dogster pages? Share them here! Pico, of course, has a...

julieandpico How long you cook packet meals depends on how hot it is where you are cooking them. But if you go to the Reynolds Wrap website site, they have a whole bunch of recipes for packet cooking in the oven and on the grill. I just sort of adapt the time from there.

julieandpico You might try different shampoos. Pico is really good about letting me soap her up IF I use one that smells like plants - pine or something and is scented with natural oils. Cedar and tea tree oil - both of which are ok with her are good for fleas too.

In quite a few discussions you see someone asking if you can show proof of this, that or another. Usually it's been for paid to programs but I have seen it in relation to other things. With this in mind, I wonder just how many of...

julieandpico That is funny! Pico and I want proof that it's a good morning too! One thing I find interesting about the "proof" so many people show is they prove they've made money, they don't say anything about how much work it took them to earn it!

julieandpico That is a good idea! I bathe Pico with tea tree oil soap. Cockers get skin warts as they age and several that I thought were secreting turned out to actually have fungus or yeast living in the nooks and crannies of the wart and washing them with the tea tree...

julieandpico The best part was that so many parents took advantage of this (money was tight for most of us), that there was pretty much no social pressure with regard to having cool notebooks and other trendy school supplies; because the vast majority of kids had the sets...

julieandpico Since you use your blog mostly to promote your business, I'm curious about how that is going for you? I barely promote my businesses in not blogs, and I'm also not getting any sales from them - then again, I'm not getting a lot of traffic on my blogs...

julieandpico Well, the surgery isn't cheap or free. All the equipment and supplies for the surgery cost money, the vets and vet techs need to be paid, the operating room and kennels need to be cleaned, etc. Sure, some of the labor and supplies are donated sometimes...
