Ladyrb, I just have to tell you that the nicknames you've chosen for your ex and the ow are absolutely hilarious! They made me giggle. Best of luck to you with everything!!

Thanks Deirdre, I just thought calling the flea my ex would still entitle him to something of me. Instead the flea is something that is there and sometimes you just can't get rid of. Irritating you with that darn itch you know, just like an X. For her since she is almost 2 feet taller than the flea I thought well Big Foot was the appropriate name. Thanks
