Monday, Monday, Monday ...
I think Mr B's morning visage just about sums up the past week! ;-D
Well. What can I say? It's been a bit of a roller coaster and I'm all for getting off the ride at the minute. At least my hand is back and functioning, which is a big 'phew!' of happiness for me. :-) The drugs they put me on came with the usual variety of side effects ... nausea, stomach pain, the weirdest extremes of poopage I could possibly have wished for and the wildest of dreams. I just about managed to stay the course and I sincerely hope I never have to take that particular pill cocktail ever again. Still ... big plus ... tetanus avoided! :-)
Alongside my 'worst ferry in the world' medicated ride, there were further developments for poor little Smallest Dog. Despite having taken her to the vet the previous week, her symptoms were getting worse ... and the 'doggy discussion' certainly hadn't assisted. Rushed her to the vet last Friday morning (driving was fun to say the least ... ever tried it one handed? A non driving friend was the only person available to help, so they were the ones changing gear each time I shouted for them to do so ... fun, fun, fun!?! ;-)) Anyway, she ended up staying two nights at the vets on a drip. Turns out she has pancreatitis and an enlarged heart, poor little sod. Picked her up yesterday and she looks surprisingly well ... so fingers crossed she continues to be OK. The amount of meds between us, we can rattle together! ;-D
And here I am on a sunny, sunny Bank Holiday on the Emerald Isle, listening to Midlands 103 which, as ever, is stuck in the time warp, time loop of the 1980s. Still enjoying the novelty of being able to use my left hand, and watching in delight as it tickers across the keyboard. Now ... all I have to do is manage to stay awake (Smallest Dog had me up at 5.50am) ... nodding off could result in me getting my nose stuck between the G and H keys again.
