Scared Pup W/ Picture!

It was a quiet night in our home last night. As I had figured, the storm that was supposed to hit us at any time yesterday completely missed us. Its tail, however, sure got us after two in the morning. One of the dogs woke me up because of the heavy thunder, and it wanted to be under the covers next... Sign in to see full entry.

If it weren't for interruptions, I'd accomplish about ten times more stuff, ya know? Once people realized that I'm up and writing around 8:30 or so every day, they would call because they "know I'm around." Between the time I posted another chapter in my latest story and now, 90 minutes had passed.... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm not feeling the best today... nothing weird... just too many interruptions throughout the night and three straight nights of insufficient sleep due to various reasons. We have been on the road so much, getting nearly daily treatments for Lisa's burn (which seems to be healing nicely) and an... Sign in to see full entry.

Back Again... Things Are Better

The lab work showed her white count was twice normal, but with a burn like this one, that is to be expected. They did two IVs again with different meds in them to help fight off the infection. We need to return tomorrow for a new blood test. Lisa says she is feeling better, so that's a start! Thank... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. Lisa began running a fever last night at about two in the morning, and her wound suddenly looks inflamed. I called the specialist's office and they want us to get up ASAP. I'm ready, and she will be in a minute. I'll let you know as soon as I know. We should be at her office about... Sign in to see full entry.

Tis The Season - Making Plans For Future Storms

Good morning. It was chilly again last night, especially with the heavy humidity this morning. Lisa's burns are healing. The biggest one has an odd look to it, but the specialist says it should look better in the next ten days. They gave her another IV of Normal Saline with a cocktail of antibiotics...

A Bit of This, A Little of That... & There's My Post

It got 'cold' here last night. Well, it got what I call "Florida cold," with temps falling to ~48 last night. In Michigan this time of year, that would be typical. In Florida, that's cold! Besides several visits to see Lisa's burn doctor, this looks like a quiet week. I think a quiet spell would be... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunday For Real Post - You Want Me To Tell You WHAT?

It's been a wonderful Sunday morning. Our typical 30-45 minutes to an hour sitting outside became a nearly two-hour event, and it was worth every minute of it. We watched the dogs play, running back and forth, like they were fearsome creatures, and anyone who interfered with their play would cause... Sign in to see full entry.

Consider this short BRB a notice that I'm going outside for 30 minutes or so with the wife and the dogs. We had a HUGE thunderstorm last night, and we may have another. Right now, the weather is nice, and the dogs love this 'morning outside with momma and daddy' routine. BRB Sign in to see full entry.

Never Live For Tomorrow - Reason 73

Good morning. We had considered going out last night and possibly going dancing, but when I really pressed her on her ability to dance, she decided that we needed to wait at least one more week. (I suspect it will be two more weeks, but we'll see.) Instead, we watched OnPatrol Live on the REELZ... Sign in to see full entry.
