The forecast calls for monsoonal miasma, with occasional breaks for apathy and doldrums.<\/p>\n
We have a sick dog, just in time for the holidays. Abbye’s been throwing up everything she’s chowing down — which hasn’t been much — for a couple of days, so she went to the vet today and we’re awaiting results from a blood test. She’s running a slight fever and has slightly jaundiced eyes, possibly indicating a liver inflammation. She got five injections — a B12 shot, an antibiotic and three injections of fluids for dehydration. She’s not a happy camper, so neither are we.<\/p>\n
The bright spot is that she’s on a doctor-prescribed diet of Gerber’s baby food (smushed chicken; mooshed beef; etc.), and she does think that’s pretty good stuff…and so far, it’s been staying with her.<\/p>\n
But, it looks like no turkey for her this week, unless it’s the gelled variety.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
