My son's best friend has been like a part of the family for about 6 years. Here daily and a real pain. He left today to move a long ways from here. Like losing one of my own kids.:(
 
I went to a local "Harbor Freight" like store and bought an Irwin 15 pc Cobalt drill bit set for $14. They had a second set, but I bought one in case they were seconds. They look fine to me.
I bought the exact same set from Amazon a year ago for $34.
I'm going back tomorrow to buy the other set of bits if it's still there. A set of 1/16 to 3/8 Irwin Cobalt bits averaged at a buck each ain't to shabby.

I'm curious what the meds do?

They are a steroid and antihistamines. The vet said that it causes the tumors to shrink. Not sure on the mechanism, but I'm guessing it is because of the anti-inflammatory properties.

I don't know how effective they will be though. The lumps sprung up over night and started growing at an alarming rate. One had been removed as I mentioned before, but at least 4 more sprung up afterward.

For now my dog is in decent spirits, but she is tired. I wish there was more I could do for her. I've been letting her and the dog that is her best friend stay in the house together. They were spooning earlier. She treats the other dog like her own puppy-- grooms her, protects her, etc.

I have a Marmoleum job for ya Jon. No walls.

You gunna free hand the Marmo? :D
I actually laid some a few weeks ago in a room off a swimming pool
And I actually dropped my recessers down the shower waste My hand would not fit down the hole but I managed to get them out with a straight edge
Also painter told me he used an oil based paint on the shower walls to seal them. Big flooring boss told him to use oil based paint
Going to react nicely with my arcylic glue eh?

I'm no a fan of it yet. Edges/locking joints are a bit on the soft side. Only doing three baths with the product, I've seen dented or distorted joints or corners each time. They brag about it being waterproof, but like all laminates, if water gets under it, it has to come up. Because the joints are soft, I don't see them being able to recover from a re-lay.
The jury is still out for me on this product. Then of course .....I still want fully glued laminates, Brigantine, burlap backed carpet and rotary dial phones to come back too. :D
 
I installed my new power supply unit in the confuzer. With the 3 small case fans disconnected I can't even hear the power supply fan running. It doesn't make the computer any faster, but it replaced the original unit that died a couple weeks ago. It came with extra cables that I don't need for now, but at least I was able to connect everything back up.
 
My rottweiler is feeling better. The new tumors shrunk a bit and she was all excited about the cooler weather today. She's outside playing with the other dogs.

Unfortunately, one of my cats was just diagnosed with Leukemia. I don't have to give him daily meds, but I need to bring him in for weekly exams and shots. Poor baby is not feeling well today at all. The vet said "It's not a death sentence" and that so long as we take good care of him he should start to feel better.
