I just happened to walk into the girls room and see the dogs laying on each other. Cracks me up when they do that. Here are some pics we've taken before of them doing that. Too funny!

Gone all day
Today I was gone (literally) all day. From 7am to 8pm. I'm participating in a clinical trial for an ashtma drug (that's already on the market) that they are wanting to pair with another drug. Kinda confusing. Anyway, I had to do these breathing tests 14 different times. Basically, you put your mouth around this tube and then take a huge breath and blow it out as fast and hard as you can and keep blowing out for 6 full seconds. Sounds easy. It's not. It gives me a headache just about every time I do it. But the money they pay to do it is worth it. I watched 4 dvd's today that I hadn't see yet. The Ultimate Gift (awesome movie), The Pursuit of Happyness (also awesome), some poker movie with Drew Barrymore and Robert Duvall (it was just okay) and the Chronicles of Narnia. I thought that Chronicles was a great movie. We've owned it for awhile but I've just never watched it.

Did you do the breathing test where you had to keep the ball floating in the middle of the tube? Dad had to do that one after one of his surgeries, and I had to do it when I went through some tests to see if I had asthma. I don't; just weak lungs. Thanks for that, Marlboro (I'm so glad I don't smoke anymore)!
No, I didn't have to keep a ball floating in the middle of a tube. I know what you are talking about though. Pretty much the same thing- this is done with a computer program that monitors the force of my breath and I watch a flat line move across the screen and when it passes a certain point, then I can breathe normal again.
