Thank you. Bailey is a moma's girl. She coned Jan in to letting her sleep with her to night. Bailey is moping because I took her out to go potty and have not let her back in.

So you told Jan she can sleep on the couch??? with Baily. Max couldn't use one leg..so when we brought him here ...yep I slept on the couch with him. 

PS...The fitted sheet/sofa...I just put it on the cushions you sit on. The knit jersey (T-shirt material) keeps them tight and not looking ...puckered, wrinkled, totally askew...yadda, yadda. I pick them up for a $2 or so at thrift store/yard sale. Actually even a large beach/bath towel will do.

I will have to check out the sheets. Jan has a king size bed. She naps a couple of hours on the couch before going to her bed. Bailey took half of her bed last night. She shredded a a dryer sheet and stuffing from somewhere. it was not one of her toys. Since moving in she has three soft toys with squeakers and a hard bone that we put peanut butter in for her as a treat. She is spoiled already.

I know that everyone here understands the torture of dry skin and the search to get some relief. I have tried more brands than I care to admit too. Recently I saw a commercial for a spray on Vaseline and decided to try it. I am pleased to say that I have been using it for several days and it helps me feel a little more comfortable in my skin. The tightness comes back much later in the day but this is the best it's been in awhile. I previously tried using the Vaseline in the jar but it did not go on as smoothly.
It probably also helps that I use Nivea crime on my hands and elbows each night. I am not crazy about how it feels during daytime use but using it before bedtime works fine.

Joe--We get to do the dog thing with our grand-dog.  She is a member of the family.  Gramp is her favorite because he is so much fun and will get down on the floor and play with her.  He also can't tell her no.

She jumps on him in his recliner and sits on his lap like she is the queen.  Then she jumps down and back and forth.   I do not let her sit on the couch where I sit most of the time.  If I'm in my chair, she can sit in my lap.  My daughter always brings her when she comes out.  We look forward to seeing Kaiya..oh and my daughter too.  lol

We were looking at some Bissells last night, both were bagless uprights, looked light enough for me to push around. Otherwise we''ll probably get a Hoover self propelled which are very highly rated.

Other fave products:
Inexpensive pair of exfoliating gloves-- use them once a week to help keep skin soft
Curel intensive moisture cream with no fragrance--inexpensive compared to other brands. Caveat, it goes on like paste because it's so rich but leaves skin silky soft with no greasy feeling.
Woolite for washing, can't use other soaps or I itch like crazy
Cetaphil for washing my face, very mild but surprising cleaning power
Earthworm cleaning products -- all natural, mold remover is terrific
Brooks sneakers -- expensive but worth it for protecting joints and mucles
