| Lacy |
I'm not in the mood for randomness, funnies, or photos (other than this one) this week because on Monday, we had to put our sweet Lacy down. She was sixteen years old. She's been losing a lot of weight, not keeping her food down, then all of a sudden, she went blind. She must have had a stroke or seizure because it literally happened overnight, and she could not walk well (also arthritis in her back legs). She also had a serious kidney disease. This was so hard. I miss her so much!
Just some funnies today.

| This is literally true! A couple of days ago, we were 80 degrees, Today, the 60's. In less than 48 hours, we're due for another hard freeze with temps 20-30 degrees below normal. |

| Feel free to groan, but this tickles my retired English teacher's funny bone! |

| Please tell me I'm not! |

| True story! |
Be sure to visit my friends at Happy Tuesday and Random Tuesday Thoughts. Have a great week!
So, there you have it. Read last week's post to learn what hiccups are and what to do about them. So, moving right on to the funnies.
I've had this "burning" question for a few days now. What, exactly, are the hiccups?
Why do we get hiccups? Well, we already know from experience that things such as sodas, eating too much, swallowing air, and too much alcohol can cause them. But I didn't know that sudden changes in temperature can also cause them. Did you?
Ideas to get rid of hiccups: Hold your breath, breathe in a paper bag, sip cold water, press on your eyes (closed, I'm sure), pull on your tongue, bite a lemon, or swallow a spoonful of sugar. (Hey, it helps the medicine go down, right?)
Mayo Clinic also says that you should consult a doctor if you have hiccups for 48 hours. 48 HOURS!? Wouldn't that be awful? That's too long! So that was my burning question for today. Moving along now...
