This n' That
Sydney's cough is improving significantly, and she seems to be settling into herself. Unfortunately, the "self" she's settling into has pretty lousy doggy manners, so I'm gonna have to work on that in the immediate future. Now what we're tackling is a skin condition -- might just be dry skin, might be a contact irritation, might be an allergy of some sort -- it's too early to tell. I do know that she was being fed pretty cheap food, plus whatever the shelter fed her, so my money is on a food allergy, which could take a month to clear up. Whee.
Tora and I are going to start walking the doggies first thing in the am -- like 6:30 am -- which ... should be... fun? And then I'll walk them in the afternoons. I've been taking them for walks together, and it hasn't been too much of a headache, except for when Darwin gets it into his head that he wants to wrestle with Sydney WHILE WE'RE WALKING.
I have been catching up on my sleep lately, and no longer feel like complete ass, which is such a relief.
Also? I have managed to keep a houseplant alive for a whole month now. This is big stuff, believe me. I have the brownest of the brown thumbs, and this thing is STILL ALIVE.
I think I may have to break down and see a doctor about my hand. I was pretty certain what was wrong with my index finger was the beginning stirrings of arthritis, but I want to make sure, because if it isn't, and there's something I can do about this, I really want to do it. Because I hate the fact that holding a pen to sign my name can actually hurt. WTF.
