stephanie is: goingto bed…
i hadn’t read my lj friend list for 2 days so i was bracing myself for it to take a while. but all you crazy kids are on vacation and haven’t been writing. i worked thursday and today. i have off saturday, then my week starts all over again.
when i got home today, danny came downstairs super worried and told me india needed to go to the vet. she had ear hematomas as a puppy – got teat cannulas and sutures to get rid of them… it was a long process that had her in an e-collar for 3 weeks. while he was petting her this evening, he witnessed her hematoma fill back up on one ear. poor poor puppy. i called the vet and they were booked for the evening. i got an appointment for 11:40am tomorrow. seems that even my days off revolve around animals usually. i just want poobear to feel better. she isn’t shaking her head too much, which is good. she is pretty tired. when she was more awake i gave her a bone to keep her busy and distracted. i have a feeling we are going to have to go through the whole procedure again… and it won’t be nearly as fun since she has become afraid of the vet over the past year.
on thanksgiving, danny made lots of yummy food. he had it all ready within an hour of me getting home from work. my hero! i ate as much as my tired ass could handle, filled a plate for friday’s lunch, washed the dishes, was in bed by 6:30pm, and asleep by 8pm. danny had to wake me up at 5:25am cause i had fallen back asleep for 5 minutes after my alarm went off. i don’t remember it going off.
work was fine today. same amount of dogs, but 3 times as many people working. i had to bathe a water-crazy chocolate lab named joey. he kept trying to attacked the spray nozzle with much glee. i needed a shower anyway, though it made it not so easy to rinse his end half. i had to get someone else to do it while i held him (sort of) still. there will be a bazillion bathes to give on sunday since so many boarding dogs will be going home.
i pulled a muscle in my back and it is killing me. ow ow ow. i keep rubbing my own back the best i can but it is not helping. make it go away! i wish i could afford a massage. i’ve never had one though…
photo_obscura, remind me i need to talk to you about the date for our shoot.
i am going to go up to bed, watch and hour of tv, then sleep. i feel stressed at the million things i need to do (clean, braid, clean, web work…) but there is never any time. never time never time. the only time i have left to free up is sleeping time and the few hours i get to spend with danny a couple times a week. and i just can’t do that.
