Wow, ten days since my last update. How did that happen? Well, I wish I had a bunch of awesome things upon which to gush about here or even something somewhat witty to blog. Alas, I don’t. Truth be told, I’ve been in a bit of a funk the last few weeks and only just seem to be pulling out of it. Which is rather ironic given that today I received some very unsettling news that I’d rather not share in this venue . . . at least not right now.
On the brighter side of things, though, I had a lovely time at Dad’s this passed weekend. Saw Nanny and Poppy, who confirmed the acquisition of several new shelves for me and my ever-growing pile of books. Had lobster and it was fantastic. Also had fresh strawberry shortcake which was quite delicious.
Dolly is doing somewhat better. Her hair is falling out like crazy and the running theory is that her Synthroid needs to adjusted. But it’s also shedding season and she was shaved due to that funky skin thing, so that might be part of it, too. The funky skin thing finally cleared up at least. She’s still not much for playing with her toys or anything, but she did try to romp around with Yara a bit in the backyard. But she’s not as young as she sometimes thinks she is and her arthritic back legs just wouldn’t allow for much of that. Yara spent the weekend whining. And shedding. But she did eat pretty well, so that’s not nothing.
