Dear Humans,

Wow, do I feel fantastic!  And I’ve made a new friend, Gypsy, who is a Black Lab who loves agility AND SCHLURPING and loves Mom very much too, so promised her he’d look out for me.

But the…

Another morning to test my feelings of total incompetence and helplessness…

Macie was limping a bit last night, which I assumed was because of muscle loss.  This morning, she wouldn't put any weight on her back left foot, and it…

Not a great night for Miss Macie.  At some point between 1:30am & 3:30am (yes, I fell asleep trying to watch a half-hour show), she threw up at the back door – not much, since she hadn’t done much in…

A rougher start to the day for Miss Macie.  She was up three times in the night, but it was to eat snow.  She was bloated up to 84cm last night, this morning 86cm, and now 87cm – and she's…

Macie had a pretty good day today.  Had to go out once last night.  Ate full breakfast & dinner.  Didn't get a walk, but enjoyed some time in the back yard.  A bit uncomfortable with the bloating, but able to…

The Feminine
Is not
Dead
Nor is she
Sleeping

Angry, yes,
Seething, yes.

Biding her time;

Yes.
Yes.

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY, EVERYONE!
