An Unaccomplished Mission

Okay, before the pictures come out, let me warn that it might be very "yucky"for you... those with weak heart, please skip this post... :)

As mentioned in my earlier posts, Labby is now our Labrador pet, she is eight months old and a superactive and hyperactive doggie and more so especially when she sees me.... she will jump all over me and I have to say NO! NO! each time she jumps... I guess it is my fault... u see, I always like to feed her with biscuits so ....when she sees me coming out to the porch, she will jump with joy thinking I have something for her to eat....

This time when I was taking the biscuits from the tin, she jumped up again and I felt something stinging behind my leg. But I didn't bother to look, I continued playing with her, making her run to fetch the "toy" and rewarding her with biscuits....

Then after a few minutes, I "beh tahan" the stinging and looked behind my leg... OH GOSH! It was all red and the scratch mark was at least 6 inches long.... quickly, I washed it off with yellow solution and applied some cream on it and of course, snapped a picture of this for kenang-kenangan (remembrance)... (btw, can get rabies or not ah?)



This morning I took Labby to the vet, to cut her paw nails (go for pedicure :))... but upon reaching, know what? I couldn't get her out of my car... tried to carry her, she wont even budge, her paws like all tensed up, making it more difficult for me to pull her out. She was so smart, she knew it was some new place she was going to and she just wouldn't budge at all....sigh...


see, she just pretend not to hear....


After 10 minutes of pulling, tugging, cajoling, persuading... I gave up... no strength in me already... We went home, my mission unaccomplished....sigh.....
SONS, HELP! HELP!!!

    If it's a scratch, not a bite, you will not get rabies...but infected wounds may be problematic. Take care of it! Dogs!!! Who says they're man's best friends? I know of cases where they can be very dangerous... Watch out! Yours doesn't like you anymore...

    My cousin had one of those "special" expensive dogs...attacked the maid as she was passing something over the fence to some workers at the other side (maybe thought she was stealing something)...and when he went to rescue her, the mutt turned on him. The workers had to rush in to save him by killing the dog...and he was hospitalised, had to undergo plastic surgery.... No dogs for me, thank you!

    Ouch that looks bad. Well, all dogs are afraid of Vets Eventually they know it is going to happen to go there for jabs, guess it all depends o how the vet treat the animals. Though I am not sure, I am not a dog :P. But I have seen sme dogs willingly go to the vet and greeting the veterinarian happily. Vetrinarian been giving doggy sweets? lol

    that yellow solution which you applied to your leg is called acriflavin or just "flavin", an anti-septic medication. The blue one is called gentian violet which does the same thing.

    If i'm not wrong, rabies is cause by dog bites, not by scratches. Ask your vet to confirm this.

    Hope the scratches have healed now.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

The Good, The Bad But Not Ugly

MISSING AND NOW BACK IN ACTION...  I checked back my last post and it was 8 March last month and today is 19 April, less than two months only.  So what has been happening in my life?  Lots and lots... good news, bad news, sad news... all concerning health and I guess this is our life cycle as we live day by day.   My health is also not that "fantastic" during the past few months, but mine is a small rock compared to giant boulder which my best buddy is undergoing... I guess some of you know what is happening to her from her blog posts.  I was totally devastated when this happened to her, my tears couldn't help falling and my heart goes out to her.  I am ashamed to say that instead of me giving the comfort that she needs, I am the one that have been receiving her strength in times like this.  She might be crushed physically but she is not broken in her spiritual mind and soul.  One word... "Unbreakable!"  She is a shining example..... "What can death do to m
