Reading that post really broke my heart, I am terribly sorry about that but I am still having hope. Ky thoughts are with you, your fanily and little Luppy.

East Bay Rider · 24 March 2013, 09:59 PM

Thinking about Mikki and Luppy this morning.

Lisa · 25 March 2013, 12:29 AM

Me, too.

Lion · 25 March 2013, 06:05 AM

Mikki, how is Luppy getting along today? Thinking positively for you guys.....

chicfarmer1 · 25 March 2013, 06:41 AM

Sorry about little Luppy. Hope she perks up.

Oh Lisa, you should have come with me this weekend when I was touring my favorite, gigantic antiques/flea market. Always something to catch the eye!

mikkibarry · 25 March 2013, 07:00 AM

Thanks guys. She's still with us. One of her blood toxin levels was down, the other was up. Up is bad. The up caused the nausea. We're not giving up. The nausea won't quit, however. It's maddening. She won't eat. Wes is force feeding her. He's also giving her fluids under the skin 2x per day. Still, we don't know if it will work. We won't know for about 3.5 weeks more or so when the kidneys supposedly stabilize. It's heartbreaking. Haven't slept in about a week except for a few minutes at a time. I'm very, very tired.

East Bay Rider · 25 March 2013, 07:33 AM

Go slow. Be well.

Thanks for the update, good luck with it all.

Mikki, we appreciate your taking the time to fill us in. Hope you can get some rest.

How did you know a kitchen set like that has been on my mind? Love it, love it. We have an old oak draw leaf pub table that does just fine, but I have to keep a vinyl cloth on it for kid-spills. Something like your pic would be divine... just wipe it and go.

Did you find anything to take home with you?

chicfarmer1 · 25 March 2013, 08:57 AM

Don't you love the handle on the top of the chairs? So practical.

Yes, this time I did. An early Zuni bracelet nicely underpriced and an oddball sculpture in soapstone that looks exactly like one of Thomas Hart Benton's horses--Art Deco galloping horse. I think it's in fact a Chinese tchotchka, per some quick look online, but I like it anyway. It was great to get out during one of the nice days. We're due for a big snowstorm tonight and into tomorrow.

This particular show is excellent for picking, plus I often take something there to sell or trade. How's your antique shop selling going?

Lion · 25 March 2013, 08:59 AM

Mikki, I know it is hard but stay positive and tell her we are thinking about her and wish her well.....

Lion · 25 March 2013, 09:01 AM

Hey J, just want to know...the kitchen set that Lisa is pining over does the deer head go with it as a matching set???

Ya'll take it easy.....Leo

chicfarmer1 · 25 March 2013, 09:05 AM

Not sure, Leo, but he's photogenic, right?

annnnnd, we'll be needing a pic of the Zuni bracelet.

chicfarmer1 · 25 March 2013, 09:16 AM

Roger that, Ms. Dawna. Can't get anything by you.

I'll throw one up tomorrow when there's some light.

Maybe even the interesting horsie.

well of course, the horse, too

Took a little trip to Ft. Worth this week and did a little shopping in the old stockyards/cow town ...some dangerously cool shops there.

chicfarmer1 · 25 March 2013, 09:23 AM

There's a need to know what came home with you.

East Bay Rider · 25 March 2013, 09:28 AM

We're having deer for dinner.

East Bay Rider · 25 March 2013, 09:28 AM

Would you please pass the buck?

well...I did buy a silver feather pendant and handmade chain from a local artist, one of the boys got new spurs from this guy www.kerrykelleyspurs.com
and I found a great rustic bench for the riding arena but I guess I'll have to have it shipped.

You have that problem too...where things have a way of following you home when you've been out. After all these years...I'm still trying to figure out how that happens!!!

Looks like he's going stag. He must be short on doe.

Lisa · 25 March 2013, 10:17 AM

D, sounds like you had a fun trip. We used to take the AmTrak train from OKC to Fort Worth and spend the afternoon downtown. The train depot was next to some fun shops and restaurants, though I heard it only lasted a few years before closing down. It was a great concept and we were sorry it didn't survive. We're quite fond of Fort Worth... we lived there for a month when my husband was doing a rotation during his residency. The school put us up in an apartment and baby Phoebe and I would explore while he was working.
