Your welcome anytime, any of the other endo ladies out there too who
might find themselves in my neck of the woods. As for the dogs, well,
mine could use some doggy socialization, her circle of dog friends has
been quite limited, and she's recovering from a traumatic puppy-hood,
including abuse and abandonment.
Hope everyone's having a good day!
luv, Amy
PS: we're in the process of putting up a fence so the dogs can run
free....
