Toby was perfectly behaved on his 1-mile walk.
I hadf THE MOST UPLIFTING telephone conversation with my BEST Facebook friend!
Socks’ vet visit wasn’t necessarily a good one. He had puss with a bit of infection around his stitches. The stitches were removed, but now I have to watch him a bit closer. As much as he seems to want to, I’m not letting Socks outside for the rest of the day and all night.

YOU GODDAMN BASTARD! CHILDREN! YOU KILLED CHILDREN! 27 DEAD, 20 ARE CHILDREN. YOU MOTHER-FUCKING COWARD! ARGH!
I have never had a doctor’s visit excite me so! If Ehwaz (control) and Sig (victory) EVER rang true they rang true today. MOST ALL of my blood-work numbers are in line, and those that aren’t have made progress towards being in line. For instance, my weight; 273 dropped to 269 dropped to 259 today. Triglycerides, target range 0-150, dropped from 238 to 189. The A1C test, significant for diabetes, target range of 4.0 to 60, dropped from 6.4 to 6.2. I also received three shots; testosterone, pneumonia and tetanus.
My divorce attorney has everything well under control (Ehwaz). I’m anticipating victory (Sig).
I received notice of my additional TRA benefits once emergency unemployment runs out at the end of the year. Getting a jump on this keeps my finances under control (Ehwaz) and pretty much guarantees success (Sig).
Much against my better judgment I caved to Socks’ demands of wanting to go outside. Okay, maybe his incision needs some fresh air to help it heal. At least I DO KNOW NOW that Socks does know where his home is and that he WILL return.
I almost forgot. Essie turned 7 months old today!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh…Essie in one chair, Socks on the sofa, me in another chair and Toby at my feet; it doesn’t get any better than this!
