Crazy Day

Barkley's been getting sicker. Barely moved yesterday. Can tell back legs are going. She has a hard time hearing too. This morning we woke up to find she bled overnight on our bedroom carpet & APD's carpet. We took her to the vet, expecting the worst, but the vet was pretty nonplussed & after blood work concluded some pain medication & antibiotics (for the wound) would do the trick. She ate well though today & even gave the Papa John's guy whatfor when he dared ring the doorbell. Regardless, there are going to be some hard days ahead, I believe.

Today was also Grandparents Day at APD's school. Great to have Gp C there, but sad sad memories of missing Gm M. It was on this day last year, that she really started to slip, having to be rushed to hospital kinda incoherent.

On top of all that Gp C's car died at Grandparent's Day & had to be towed back to Pittsboro, which may end up costing as much as the vet visit.

Today was also my volunteer day at Apex Elem doing my "Plot That Storm" thing in the morning, then tried to fit a full day of work into the remaining half day. By the end of the day, the Dolberries were wiped out.
