Boys, Dogs and General Anesthetic

My goodness what a weekend. Friday was our day to take the Bug to London for his botox injections, this time under laughing gas with a little anesthetic so they could isolate the muscles and perform a deeper more accurate injection.

Of course nothing goes according to plan, Friday was also the day the school Spirit Wear order showed up so I had to go pick that up at the school to bring home to sort, before we even started for the day.

We left at 9:30 to get to London for 11am to register (what a joke)Only to find out that his procedure had been bumped to 1:30 instead of 1pm and only to find out that they were not ready for him until 2:15pm. I don't know about you but having jello for breakfast and going until 2:15 pm with no food SUCKS! The bug was such a trooper though he never once asked for anything to eat or drink. I love that kid!

He recovered well and we finally left the hospital at 4pm. LONG DAY!

Not our only surgical customer for the weekend though.....


As luck would have it, some fucking idiot threw a beer bottle on our fence line and on Saturday night the dog stepped on the broken bottle part and cut open his foot and the artery that is in his foot. Let's just say copious amounts of blood, a 140km visit to the Emergency Vet clinic at the other end of town and a cool $800.00 later. The dog is just fine. Scared us half to death. He is 13 and we were really worried he would not survive the surgery.

Thanking my lucky stars that everything and everyone is okay!

Stayed up till after midnight putting together the orders for the kids spirit wear.


Very tired!
