Miniature dachshund gnaws off diabetic owner's toe

ALTON, Ill. - An Illinois woman says her beloved miniature dachshund gnawed off her right big toe while she was asleep. Linda Floyd told the Alton Telegraph for a story Wednesday that her beloved Roscoe was euthanized because of safety concerns.

The 56-year-old says she has no feeling in her toes because of nerve damage from diabetes. She discovered the toe missing after waking from a nap Monday. She called her daughter, who phoned 911.

A veterinarian says the toe had been bandaged because of a healing hangnail. That might have somehow attracted the dog.

Aloe Vera & American Flag

I totally forgot that I had few pieces of aloe vera in the fridge. I got it from Oma (Agek's MIL) when I went to her place with Vivi few days ago.

I read a local on-line article that fresh aloe vera is good and can be used for face mask as it will tighten pores. I just started using it this afternoon, so the result isn't visible yet.

Anyway, I found a funny but ironic 4th e-card :)

China. It's huge, cheap and greedy. But I love its food and I should love my ancestors, too! So, go China! Woohoo :D

Freedom

QotD: Happy 4th of July!

Bertha

How are you celebrating the 4th of July?

I don't celebrate as I'm not American :) But my friend Bertha is having her birthday today. She's Indonesian, but has been living in Atlanta for many years. I sent her an e-card yesterday.
