    Your dog stories reminds me of the time I had DS at the pediatrician 's for a checkup. He was a couple of years old and his doc was doing the what does a cat say, what does a duck say and when he asked what does a dog say DS said aroooooo. Doc asked him again and again DS said aroooooo. Doc turns and looks at me and I said with a straight face, "We have a beagle." As you know beagles bey and that's exactly what DS did. Doc got a good laugh out of that as DS was the first of his many patients that actually imitated his dog and not do the standard bow wow.

    Susan3: (tongue in cheek) worst part so far being told by junior doctor in practice that I'm supposed to wear seamless sports bras for 4-6 weeks. Woulda been nice to know that beforehand! But hardly something to complain about. Not really. So I won't.

    Queen- I remember having to wear those too but was told before hand. I was also told to wear them for much longer than that.

    Kohls had a good selection of them when I needed those.

    Who knew pillows exploded when exposed to canines? They should probably have a warning tag on them about that.

    Jazzy: I did buy a couple of scooshie bras at Target--wearing one of them now--but I'll check kohl's too. Thank you!

    Now back to our regularly scheduled dogs who admit nothing.

    Hope you feel better soon, Ms. Smaarty. Let us know how GS' surgery goes.

    Queenie, try the Bali 3488. So farI can't seem to find one more comfortable. Kohl's has them for $40. I found them less expensive online at http://www.hanes.com/onehanesplace/bra/shop-by-bra...

    Kohl's might still price match. They did for me.

    Bali 3488 check. I've got a couple of the Hanes "cozy" bras (G196 for geeks) that feel ok, but will check the bali as well. If I'm gonna be living in them, they better be good.

    Ms. Sas, yay for finding of the right dose of Baclofen that works for you ;) So glad to hear the tinnitus is improving too. I don't have TMJ pain, but some mornings I wake up with sore jaw muscles. I know I grind my teeth during sleep. Now you got me to wonder if this contributes to the tinnitus.

    FYI, this probably affects only compounding for intrathecal injection.

    They're is a bra thread. Haven't visited in a very long time. Don't have it in my favs........it's here and the gal's maintaining have been around since I got here.

    Spookie I know I pissed you off. Not apologizing, but am apologizing. Love you gal. You are important to me.

    My statement separate from my thoughts to Spookie.

    The media sound bites that sensationalize are wrong. Been listening since before Trump got into it. For the media working their own angle, they are befuddled why Trump is surviving. He's surviving b/c he's talking about things that need to be talked about. For example, The No fly list. Since he made it an issue, it's being cleaned up and top government officials are talking. People are being arrested. Since the initial sensationalizing about the immigration issue. Yes, their is a problem with immigration. Who ever heard of Sanctuary Cities. The folks killed. The families that came forward telling stories of family members killed by illegals.

    Trump is surviving because folks are willing to find out what he said, without the interpretation of the media.

    Before Trump ever said anything about people on the "no fly list" being barred from flight, it was an ignored issue. I have followed it for years. The hx is in Wiki. They're is a meeting of timelines. Trump brought a highlight too it, and the result of recent lawsuits forced the departments to act. The Pres is trying to take credit for the clean up. Nope, he could have done something many years ago.

    Obama has issued more Executive Orders than any president in hx. He want's to do something, he issues an Executive Order. Be damned if those orders meet the Constitution prerogative of separation of powers. In the past a president issued few executive orders.But that is diverging into the balance of powers of the three branches of our Republic.

    I had to defend to a relative that we were a Republic not a Democracy. I had to look up the difference between a Republic and a Democracy. The difference is our President on the swearing in ceremony swears to uphold the Constitution.

    Spookie, I know you are a strong Democrat, I'm a strong Repulican............mags and jazzy were right....... . About family not talking politics. Girl love you... chit let's get some ice cream and a chocolate dip.............

    Queenie,here's a link for Bali 3488 on Amazon. Much cheaper and some have free shipping with prime. Only ones I can where. Regular bras make the girls hurt.

    good thing about being small...tank tops are just fine...good luck finding a comfy bra queenie. Never could myself cause of swelling under arms that never went away. Lucky I can be bra less :)

    Smaarty: 00oo, that is cheap. Good post-surgery bras, then?

    Susan3: (makes 'harrumph' face) Once things settle down, I'm hoping to return to the Playtex 18 hour. But for now, one of my incisions runs right along where the bands meet the cups on those.

    Politics: (shudders)

    Queenie, I wore surgical bras for first couple weeks. Only these since. They worked fine when I had the dog ears removed in the office, so yes, good for right after.

    Smaarty: I'm on board with these, then! I expect I'll want a bit more support than scooshy-Hanes bras can provide once the swelling starts going down, but not yet ready for seamed bras.

    The only good thing about Trump is that if he's running as the candidate... it's the biggest motivator in history for every democrat to vote. So it's helping the cause. Guess what side I am on? Ok No more politics.. I'm the "sorry there's one in every family" a black sheep who defected. My Dad used to laugh and say "it's that commie ba*tard you married.." Haha.. My DH (before we were married) came back from 8 week in Communist China with a graduate student exchange program. He brought my die hard Republican father a Mao hat with a big red star! Truly my father's expression was one of the greatest ever to happen on a human face! Makes me belly laugh now years later just to remember.. my Dad with a Mao hat.. I should have taken a photo. About as likely as Donald with a Mao hat! Wouldn't that be rich!!

    We gave our pups a squeaky gingerbread man to play toss with! Ohhh they so love the new treasure. Ruby our 16 pound terrier snipped off the foot and started in on the stuffing. She's trying to get the sqeaker out. Our border collie will play toss till she drops and not tear her toys up. What is it about terriers?? Right now gingerboy is on the mantel... safe until monitored!

    All this bra talk.. stopped wearing bras in 2008. The girls came off and so did the bra. I have lymphadema in my left arm and the bra made the swelling much worse, so I don't miss it.
