Good morning!
Poor Gus has an ACL tear in his knee causing his lameness - he'll probably be in for surgery with a specialist in the next week or so. Sigh. Three of my four Aussies have gotten ACL tears - Cosmo had his at 7 and did fine with surgery, Snickers was too old for surgery at 12 and couldn't bear her weight on the other leg, so she was put to sleep. I'm hoping Gus can make it through OK and still have some good years left in him - he's 9.75 years old. I do curse my house for being a split level so he has to do stairs in and out of the house. Seven steps up and down... Gus was given an additional painkiller, so hope that helps. A surgical specialist will look at his Xray and set a date.
Adelija slept over at a friend's house but will be back today and tomorrow. Monday she'll be going with a friend's family to a cabin to spend part of her spring break there - frankly, I'm happy about that! At least it's not the Florida trip she was initially planning. She wants to go to a Ukrainian church tomorrow to make their Easter eggs - I love the patterns on those eggs
. She'll be spending the rest of her spring break in Duluth with a trip with the kids from her organization. Yay!
Me? I'm putzing around the house - today should be relatively warm and dry so I might get out on the roof and try to reseal my skylight. I'll still walk Gus in our neighborhood.
Laura, good luck on taxes this year! The submission date is coming up soon... but you do get some extra days this year!
Glad Ms Crankypants is still good company for you on the rainy days
. The Easter cards have a quicker deadline than taxes this year by a day!
Waves to all!
