Tash is home and doing ok.

Tash is home and doing ok.  It is going to be a looong weekend, though.  I couldn't get her out of the car by myself and she can barely stand from sitting or lying down.  She just needs a little help with the back end.  When she walks, she does put some pressure on that back leg, but she hobbles around so I feel like it still hurts.  🙁

After I gave her some pain meds, she napped.  But she's mostly restless and uncomfortable, maybe in outright pain still.  I feel terrible for her.  I also had her ears plucked while she was under so she's shaking her head a lot, but I guess that's keeping her from being able to chew at her stitches, so...

Anyway, I'm sleeping on the couch in the room with her tonight... who knows, maybe all weekend.  She's eating and drinking (as long as I bring it right to her 😂) so that's much better than how things went with her spay.  She wouldn't even eat or drink when I offered food or water to her after that.

So far, it looks like I'm sticking close to home this weekend, but that's ok with me because I want to be here for my girl. ❤ So if you need me, you know where to find me!

Nappy after her first hip surgery.  She is not a happy camper right now, but I think the couch service will make it a little better.  I hope!

I called and checked on Nappy...

I called and checked on Nappy; she seems to be doing fine.  I'll know when I can bring her home after 10:30.  So, I guess I'm gonna head to work and check back later.

Well... I don't know anything specific...

Well... I don't know anything specific about how things went with my Nappy girl today.  🙁  I called the vet a couple of times and they were only just prepping her for surgery around 4:00.  They said that they would not be done until after hours and that if I didn't hear from them, that was good news.  I haven't heard anything yet, so... I'm guessing she's ok.  I'd really feel better if I could hear it, though.  I am not mad - the vet's office was slammed today - even early this morning, and they said that an Alpaca needing a blood transfusion came in and held them up even more.  I totally understand, but I'm gonna be on edge until I talk to them in the morning.  So... this is what it is.  😐

Well, I'm heading out with Nappy.

Well, I'm heading out with Nappy. I don't know if I'm ready! 🙁 I'm so nervous!

First fancy nails I've done in a while.

First fancy nails I've done in a while. Can't tell because the snowflake one is iridescent, but it actually matches the polish pretty well. 🙂 I'm tired and have a hard day tomorrow, so I'll deal with the edge clean-up later. ❤


Off to eat dinner and wash Nappy...

Off to eat dinner and wash Nappy up so she's all clean for tomorrow.  Big day - my baby girl is having surgery!  This is the first time any of my animals have had any procedure done other than a spay or neuter.  I am having feelings about it.  😐

Little black eye, thankyouverymuch, Faith.
