I'm sick and tired of the heat!!!!:mad: The Dallas/Fort Worth area hit 107 yesterday and should do almost that today. That means we start the mornings off above 80 which quickly becomes 90 by 9AM...

Hi Denise,

I use Singulair and Maxair inhaler as needed. My asthma doctor tried me on Advair but it actually made things worse for me.

I only seem to have problems when it's hot like this. ...

but on a greenbroke horse as a teenager(eons ago) We're weaving through the rows of pecan trees when she decides she's tired of being ridden. She takes me right at a branch that's about chest level....

We had a border collie that would eat everything, including dill pickles. And he would burp ever so loudly after eating. It was like impolite if he didn't burp! :D

The Mini Rat Terrier we have...
