Here's Hoping

This my friends, has been a hard week.  And given that, as a blogger, it is my duty to turn it all into a post about the week that was and is a testimony to just how rotten it's been...  So IN BRIEF...

Charlie is still wearing the cone of shame.  He has a place on his front leg that he won't leave alone which resulted in a hot spot.  It was almost healed and I took the collar off, and he picked up where he left off.  I put it back on.

The lovely Miss Annie hasn't eaten much for more than a day.  At more than 14 years old, it of course has me worried.

Josh, who really needs to be groomed, is really favoring his front right leg after he jumped off the bed. He has rods in his leg that was broken when he was a puppy and I was told a couple of years ago that there may come a time when they need to be removed.  I'm hoping that time hasn't come.  

Cissy's appetite has stayed consistent.  But her activity level is down a bit this week.

CarrieAnne got stung by something this week too.  I don't know what it was, but it really packed a punch.

And I seemed to have lost misplaced one of my diamond earrings...

Aside from all of this, there have been a few lighter moments this past week...Here's one that came from a photo I took that Todd was part of. Carl has started physical therapy and he goes to his appointment straight from work. However, he forgot to take his tennis shoes with him and afterwards came home wearing his street shoe with a white sock and his now trademark boot--Todd face in the photo mirrored my reaction to his white legs and "foot-attire!"

I'm hoping that by the end of the weekend there will be a few more lighter moments to add.  I just hope that Saturday is sunny because I could really do with some sunshine.  Or a good strong wind to blow away the blues.

 Here’s hoping...
