Old idea/project board in the garage. Pre digital camera, this is the batch that got the cops called on me. To be fair, to a 5 year old, it must have looked like bloody skulls.

So, basically, my reviews of a fair few lights caught their attention and they want to get this product out there.

Oh, this is mightily tempting.

Uses triple A batteries, SO MUCH EASIER to replace than my present lights that use CR2032.
REMOTE CONTROLLED, just leave in the pumpkins walk around and click on the second day? *drool*

200 minimum order is a real kink in the system though. That puts it at $300 for a lifetime buy of lights. Not a terrible deal, really, but not something I really have handy with everything going on this year.

Many knockoffs now. For whatever reason, my candle supplier isn't loading, though. They have one I want to check the qty discount on.

hEt is taking Mystery to the butcher shop today. Mildly concerned, since she's been in before and escaped somehow. She might theoretically be pregnant again and they might refuse on those grounds. Plus the whole get what you pay for situation, they do not offer the same level of care our vet does, but it's an 8th the price as well.

They refused to cut on her 'because she's been fixed already'. We explained the situation at drop off, and I tried again. "She has the tattoo where they cut, must have stolen the kittens". And got fat before they arrived...sure.

Idiots

Unorthodox · « **Reply #5331 on:** June 22, 2017, 01:38:49 pm »

I'm trying to figure out how it happened. If she actually WAS fixed...I'm unfamiliar enough with the operation, is it possible she was pregnant when she went under the knife the first time and still carried the kittens?

Not without a uterus...

Unorthodox · « **Reply #5333 on:** June 22, 2017, 06:00:30 pm »

That's what I'm not sure whether the clinic is doing a full clean or a tube tie.

Unorthodox · « **Reply #5334 on:** June 25, 2017, 03:09:26 am »

So...

I took mystery out to a country doctor who was willing to check her mostly out of curiosity. Most the city doctors wouldn't have anything to do with her situation other than refer us back to the clinic.

(My own regular vet, Dr Hyde (yes, of course I go to Dr Hyde) would have, but they were booked for another month and I couldn't risk another pregnancy)

She had been opened and closed previously without any internals being removed. The previous scar tissue made the new closure not as easy or clean as they'd like, so we're now concerned about healing and infection.

I had medicine to give her today, and she is PISSED at me. As in, I'll likely have to take protective measures administering the medicine tomorrow.

Working title: Scare, CROW

Not sold on the name yet.

Had this idea rattling in my head for at least a year, and though we're scaling well back this year, I still wanted to get this one built.

Had use it or lose it situation on my vacation, so taking a few days off and getting a couple hours to work in the new air conditioned shop in between plenty of house work that needed to be done. .
