Diabetes talk reminds me of a tale with my namesake Puff.  At about 4 or 5 the vet diagnosed him as diabetic.  At that point it was required that he have an insulin shot twice a day.  Vet said we should come in and he would show us the procedure.  After the demo I went first.  Then it was Ton's turn. . .No, no said Ton, I'm not giving any shots!  Well, the vet firmly said either Puff would have to have shots - or he would give Puff one more shot and put him to sleep then and there.  Result was we both had duty to make sure Puff got his insulin.  As I think bank, the other story to mention - I'm not sure it was the darkness outside -or- if he just got a funny feeling, but when it was time, maybe a bit late, Puff would come up to one of us and lay the paw on our lap.  It's time!  Original prognosis was that he would live to about 8  years.  He lived to be 16. 

Puff the beast was my darling - still tears me up.

Puff
Camper got his "boatman badge" for taking the pontoon out all by himself and then he got his " Scrabble badge" for finally beating me after  23 yrs. Lol
He caught a couple of nice sized perch today and I caught a small bass. We gave those to the neighbor and he gave me a few more cleaned, frozen bass.  8)
We packed up the fishing gear...ready to go up the steps to the car later. Going to dinner at a restaurant that sits between two parts of Lake Iguadona tonight. They are said to have good pizza.

One challenging/competing with the other keeps this interesting tig.  LOL

{{{Dear Puff}}} such a bittersweet, tender story about  you and your 'Puff'

Tig interesting story about the BE that did a 'fly-by' while  Camper was fishing. Who finally got the fish?

Lisa Oh Gee...I've seen those pharma adverts on TV.  Makes administering the meds so quick and very easy.
That makes is all so nice and convenient for you--- anyone actually.

Fish stories _ we have to tell you the Large Mouth Bass bite is stellar here.

Where here is ?

Tig tell Camper he has to hold his own on that one. 
Remind him the wind, swell and angle of the bobbing bucket are all omni important in order to gain that badge. 

Us Squids with 'sea legs' just downwind it as it is were.

Standing in a canoe this day much to Pips lake shore side blush.   

The Red Tail Fox told me exactly where to fish today.

Shoreline Critter Watching at dawn almost always leads me to the correct bay.

Og- The Iceland lava is unbelievable - have watched it on the news too.  :o  Thank you for link!

Karen-  I don't know if your discomfort is the same as what my Mom has been dealing with, but it kind of sounds similar!  It has not been diagnosed as being connected with her Sciatic nerve, but her discomfort all started when she fell last Oct in her Apt.  The pain seems to stem from her hip to her knee.  Her knee especially was giving her lots of pain.  Last week her doctor gave her a shot in her hip area and so far she has felt a lot better.  She is very pleased so far!   This is her 2nd shot.  The first was back in December.  She is still going to PT twice a week and does her exercising at her place too!

LisaG-  Good for Brien in all that he is doing - it can't be easy.  All of you take care.  Hugs for you all.

Lani- Glad to hear that after tests, Mike is okay. :)     Hope all goes well at his July appt.

Clynn- It is so good that Talon knows so much 'Tech' stuff at his age!!!  Bella is amazing at what she already knows too!! She is a very smart kiddo!! ;D    Like the pic at Hellgate nest!

Kb- So very sad about the terrible tragedy in MN.  Thoughts & prayers for the Officer's family. :'( :'(     Beautiful hanging plant in your backyard!

Tig- Did you catch any fissies today? :)  Glad you & Camper are having a fun trip!!  Happy for Camper getting those Badges!! Lol ;D

Karen- Glad you are having some nice weather! 

Tsk- Woodman's sounds like a great place to do shopping! ;D

Phyl- Sounds like Maggie is doing well with the food she eats! :)   You & Jim & Maggie have a nice weekend. :)

Puff- Your Puff sure was Special!!!  You & Ton took such good care of him.  Puff was lucky to have you both!!

Hi Paulie, Bl, Lori  :)

Beakers stay safe - have a nice evening.
