MY NEW DESK!!!!!!

 
 I forgot to show you my new desk! It came all the way from Canada! Thank you Canada! It's a prepack floating desk. (My desktop is a picture of a duckling thinking of jumping into a bowl of water.)
View from the top. What do you put in all the cute little cubbies?
View from the living room towards the dining area:
 
This is looking towards the front door. We have the desk, my sewing table with my husband's violin and then the dog area with his bed, basket of toys and his bucket of dog care items.
 
 
I'll update you on the rest of the house as I see fit. See you later!
Trisha.

Excedrin Migraine

Anyone ever tried this? It makes me feel high and dizzy and lightheaded and floaty.
Talk about full blown anxiety attack, sleeplessness and nervousness!

I have had a migraine off and on for a couple weeks and nothing seems to work and have finally given in. I had never tried this Excedrin everyone talks about. I bought it and took the recommended dosage of 2 pills at the same time for 24 hours pain relief. This is the first and LAST time I will ever take this. I'd rather feel the migraine.

Oh boy does this stuff work! It takes away the pain but makes you feel weak and lifeless and ready to die. I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack! I was so scared and woke up my husband. He checked my pulse proclaimed me fine and went back to sleep. So here I am. WIDE AWAKE. Alone. And high. Anyone want to come over and keep me company?
It's like feeling like you're still experiencing a migraine but without the pain except you don't feel sleepy. And like you are high and drugged out and can't stop the world from spinning and can't wake up from this anxiety nightmare. It makes my heart hurt! I'm in a migraine fog without the pain!

I don't drink coffee and have found out on the Internet it's like drinking 2 cups of coffee and I took it at 9:29PM. Anyone else dumb enough to "drink" 2 cups of coffee right before bed? I guess that's the intelligent effect a migraine has on you!

NEVER AGAIN!
Take it with extreme caution. I cannot believe people willingly take this stuff more than once! How do they not feel weird?

Weird I swear I feel drugged.

Enough of my symptoms- anyone else get weird reactions to over the counter medication?
I'd like to hear if Excedrin makes you HIGH. Or gives you any other symptoms. Or am I too sensitive?
 
Guess I'll  try read a book until this drug wears off. I'm going to have a long day!
Wide awake 12:40AM in the morning. Running off 2 hours sleep. And this stuff lasts 24 hours???

Wildlife Zoo And Aquarium

We went to the ZOOOOOO!!!!!
Mom these annoying noisy peacocks were everywhere making their LOUD dying cat screams.
They don't just make noise in the fall.
They were pretty though!

Spider monkeys!


This guy looked so bored:

This little guy (pictured below) and the smaller one not pictured were my husband's favorite. The big guy here showed off his food and the little guy played a shy game of peek a boo and then run up and jump off the cage in front of us and tear off to the back again to peek out from behind a post or whatever he hid behind. So funny.

And I walked under a sleeping leopard!

Beautiful! I wanted to pet it so badly but the openings were too small and the space between the 2 fences was too great so I didn't try. And he might eat my hand. It looked soooooo soft......I wanted to pet it......But.....


So majestic and beautiful....

Baby leopard!

little finches (hee hee I took your picture lady and posted it on my blog!!!!)

Baby Ducks:

Turtles:

Squawk!



Pretty kitty:

Poky horse thing (I don't know it's official title)

I saw their rare white alligator! They actually had 2- this one was the smaller.

Check out that LooooOOOooog tail!

Big red monkey butt! 2 monkeys here.

 
peek a boo! this guy was peeking out over the wood fencing at everyone walking by.

 

Squaaaaawk!!!!! Hello!
(So noisy!)

I thought this looked so cool how the flamingos fold up their legs to sit.

Yay! Zebra baby! (in the middle)

Poky antlers

Peek a boo will you feed me?

Sooooo cool- you can feed them and pet them:
 
This guy was showing off to the ladies:

I was going to take a picture and this guy ran up to the fence:

and another hung upside down:

Porcupine
I don't know if this is the one who was born at the zoo whose name is Sticker.

Baby joey in the pouch alert!

This one looked us over something fierce. No fencing between us. I was scared he'd come kick us but he didn't.

Did you guys hear the joke my nephew told me?
Well what do you call a baby kangaroo?
A "pouch" potato!
hee hee hee...

I couldn't show you the better picture because it had my handsome husband's reflection in it, but this is the other huge rare white alligator there. We ate right next to it at the restaurant attached to the aquariums. Our table was squashed up next to his tank! 

And the grand finale: This pretty bird


With the pretty tail:

TA DA!

Then my battery died and we left.
Bye!
Trisha.
