[QUOTE="SHBailey, post: 1862978, member: 89387"] So Puff got right up the next morning and went "downstairs" to chow down on his veggies almost as soon as I turned the lights on, and hasn't gone in his hide to sleep since, so no more worries about "unauthorized" brumation. :mrgreen: One good thing about this climate is that we don't have quite the variety of insect pests that they do in warmer areas -- they have to have some way of surviving the winters, like the famous Alaskan mosquitoes with the "antifreeze" in their eggs. There are a few others that can get pretty nasty, but for the most part we get off fairly easy. Sorry to hear you're still fighting the battle of the bugs with your carnivorous plants, but I'm not sure if the "cure" wouldn't be worse than the "disease" if you could get some "pet" wasps. Unless if you could "tame" them, if one of those guys stings you, it hurts reeEEaally bad... At least it sounds like your reptiles and most of your other carnivorous plants are doing reasonably well. Maybe not being eligible for disability benefits is a blessing in disguise for me, because if I had to keep going in and talking to someone to prove that I can't work (for a permanent condition that isn't going away any time soon, no less), I'd probably go nuts. Stress me out and make my condition worse, watch me go off the deep end and freak out, now do you believe I can't work? :roll: Thank goodness my husband has been barely able to earn enough for us both to live on (plus the reptiles) for the past 15 years, so I've been more or less "flying under their radar" (so to speak) until I'm just barely getting old enough to file for social security benefits on the basis of "retirement" -- no medical or psychological evaluation required, as I understand. I guess all I have to do now is show them my birth certificate to prove that, yes I'm really that old, and they have some record somewhere of my employment history that says I managed to work just long enough to be eligible for a little something. So hopefully that won't be too much trouble for me when the time comes. Meanwhile, I don't envy you having to keep going through that. I hope that someday they figure out that it's not going away and that it doesn't do you or anyone else any good to keep hassling you about it. Anyway, if the latest "evaluation" is all over by the time you read this, I hope it went well :) , or that you at least "survived." :| Meanwhile, it's getting to be just about time to turn on the heat lamps, get Puff out of his "burrito," and do our "good morning" cuddle. :love5: [/QUOTE]
