Hi Liz Justine CAN hold her water for up to 10 hours - or she can run outside, run around, come inside and pee just any ol' where <grin> - I think you have the answer - your girl has good muscles, a large bladder, and just doesn't need to empty it very often -- Hubby is right - you are quite lucky!
Just read that Sytze took WD in NC today - and that finishes him - he left up here last week with needing only 1 point to finish - so I sent Dennis a Congratulations message ... wish I had been there to see it ... oh well ... we had a great visit while they were here for the Mt Valley cluster ... even if we didn't do much (4th, 3rd, 3rd) - Dennis showed me how to work on her ears so, that was good - education is always a good thing <grin> Have just learned that my son is Commissioning on Sunday, 8/18, so Virginia & I are making plans for a flash trip to Kansas for that - flying out & back - Preston is so pleased we are making the effort - and he asks so little -- but oh, this year is a killer! <g> See you soon Joan Liz Gordon wrote: > Dear Group, > > I have a question/problem: however, some of you would not consider this a > problem.
