Today I got to meet up with my friends Doc and Dan! But first we had to take Ollie to the vet. He has an upper respiratory infection that he picked up while boarding. He had a hard time sleeping last night he was so congested, so we went to […]
We’ve been in Washington DC these past few days. We took the train up on Saturday. It is a 10 hour trip, as we take the train that stops all over in North Carolina. There is an 8 hour train, but it leaves in the middle of the night! The […]
Non-service dog users probably don’t realize this, but service dog users usually don’t want to hear about how peoples’ dogs died. It is a common phenomenon, though. For some reason, a significant number of people see someone with a service dog and their first instinct is to tell the service […]
Today I made cranberry sauce without the traditional sugar. I made one batch using agave nectar, and another using maple syrup. I used 1 lb cranberries, 1 cup OJ, and 1 cup sweetener. For the agave nectar I put a little less than a cup, and for the maple syrup […]
Today Hestia was very good! We did three things, which is a lot for us. First, we met Kristi and her dog Jax for a Manners Evaluation. Then we went to Home Depot. And finally we ended up at Earth Fare. In the last few months, Hestia has been more […]
Today my friend Doc came to pick me up, and we headed to our friend Dan’s new place. He is living close to me now! It’s a nice place, but he’s moving soon to an even nicer one! We headed to a restaurant that Dan has been to before, but […]
No pictures today, but I did want to share that we did a few errands today. We had an appointment with my psych nurse, went to the pharmacy to drop off prescriptions, stopped by Sam’s, and stopped by Staples. Hestia was pretty darn good in Sam’s (and the other […]
Today it is supposed to rain all day, but I didn’t want that to deter me from my daily walk (4 days in a row today!). I also figured that since the weather was so miserable, there wouldn’t be a lot of dogs out, so I could take Ollie on […]
Today was a Hestia-focused day. Of course there were the usual morning snuggles while waiting for Brad to wake up. I spent some time fantasizing about a galaxy fabric themed vest for her (black background with stars and purple and blue nebulas), and then thought that it would be super […]
Today we had (hopefully!) my last appointment before getting insurance to approve my surgery. I had an ultrasound. Due to insurance inanities, we had to go all the way down to Lancaster to get it done. It was a long drive (40 min), but once we got there, we were […]
