Murphy (my black labrador) hates this hot weather. I usually walk him first thing (before 9am) or late evening (after 10pm).
He wanders around the house and garden, looking for somewhere cool to lie.
Usually ends up on the bathroom floor or under the washing!!!  :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

After appointment I went to the dog beach. Whitley had a great time. Now that I know how to get there, I will go again when I have my next appointment in Chicago.

I get bad hallucinations from Morphine. I had always thought it was just a side effect until the last time I was in the hospital and they gave me morphine in the ER. I don't remember anything until I woke up the next day! My husband said they were trying to ask me admissions questions and my answers sounded like I was from another planet!   :rofl;   :rofl;   :rofl;  Maybe Sugarlump was flying up to my planet! m  :clap;   :clap;   :clap;
The Dr. decided that my reaction was severe enough to list it as an allergy!
