I survived the day as the lone clerical staff. My inbox is still overflowing and still lots to do. It is lonely with out my other half of my brain on the other side of the partition.

I picked Otto up after work and he came home a changed dog. It's been a while since he's had a wag to his tail. He found a forgotten treat by the door as we were exiting the vet and he gobbled it right up. He came bounding into the house and right to his bowl and ate up the food that was in there. They have a different kind of splint and bandage on his foot and it sounds like he has a peg leg. I tried to give him his medication in these pill pocket things. They're treats and have a pocket in them, slide the pill in and sort of mush over the ends. That didn't work either. I think they're too pliable and as he chews he tastes the pill and that was the end of that. I'm going to have to wait until DS gets home and get the pills pushed into him again. It's just such a battle.

I think I'm going to sit and read for a bit. I'm really missing my evening walks with Otto and it will probably be another 10 to 14 days before they remove the bandage and splint and give the OK to start going for his walks again. And no, I wasn't asked for any money this evening!

Hope your Tuesday has been terrific!

Goodness it is almost 10 PM here and I want to know where the day went. I was up early and into the office at 8:30. I had so much to do today it was not funny so I never had a chance to pop in and say hello. I did my Jenny Craig weigh in last night and I will say I am disappointed. After a week of total honesty and control, 5 out of 7 days exercising I was hoping really hard for a nice drop but I only got 1.2 pounds. It was extremely hot here yesterday with high humidity.............mid 90's and the main part of my house does not have AC so cooking was totally out of the question. We decided to take the kids and hit our favorite seafood place. I was extremely good and had a salad with vinegar and oil, broiled scallops with a double helping of steamed stringbeans. No roll, no appetizer and no cheese cake. I did however eat everyone of my scallops! Today is another hot day and my old house just holds this heat in making it very unbearable in here. I am going to head upstairs to the bedrooms in a few minutes where the AC has been cranking nonstop. I wanted to take a walk after dinner but the heat is knocking me out. I will try really hard and get up a little earlier and walk in the morning. They are making lots of headway on our pool and I have some pictures. I will try and post them on Facebook tonight. Katie is feeling better although her eye is a beautiful shade of purple and the bridge of her nose is still swollen and sore. I took her to the barn but she did not lesson. Between the nose and heat we felt it best. Instead she just brushed him off, fed him some carrots and put him away. Well I hope everyone had a great day and I will check back with you all in the morning.
