Good morning!
Workouts first - the fun part of my day!
3 sets of pushups
Bad Yogi's PBYP Week 1 Day 2
I may be adding a Lesley 20 minute practice in the afternoon.
Christopher is doing well. The vet squeezed us in yesterday and I flew to their office. Getting through Saratoga Springs on any day is maddening and add in school buses and traffic lights not timed in my favor but I was only 15 minutes late.
He had 2 chest x-rays and a full physical. Thankfully no cancer. Chris has asthma and the vet saw that clearly on the x-rays. So, I came home with antibiotics, as he had an ear infection that I was treating and a possible upper respiratory; an probiotic to help with his flora while taking meds as he has some irritable bowel issues; and more gabapentin, which I will now give him a half dose. He's definitely on the mend although being annoyingly vocal, more like deep bellowing. Don't know where that's coming from. I continue to give him his inhaler twice a day. He's really a pretty good patient!
My husband couldn't come with me because we had Culligan here changing the water filters so someone had to stay home. Gerry was terrified that I would put him down without him there. I told him that would never happen. He's so happy he's going to be OK, as am I. But it is a lot of work getting these guys healthy.
Donna - It's so hard watching animals we love start to deteriorate. I hope your lab has a great 2022 and can go out happy. That's all I want for any animal or any person. I also signed up for the Man Flow yoga. Will get to that later this week. How can you beat $9???
Pat - Your prayers worked! Thank you - he's definitely on the mend. I held my mala in my hand, reciting "health" on each bead this morning as my mantra. Health for all of us and our planet. Some really screwy things are happening because we have totally disrespected Mother Nature. I always say to my husband I'm glad we're old - I don't want to see what could possibly happen to our beautiful planet.
Pam - Thank you for the hugs - they were all needed! He's still a whiny boy but fingers crossed he'll slowly stop. It's making both of us crazy as we don't know what he wants or needs!
Summer Breeze - I would be concerned about your kids too. However, I watched an interview with a doctor and they stated why kids are safer in school than not (unless they are distance learning at home). There are protocols in place that hopefully will keep them safe. But kids are kids so your worry is not misplaced. I know so many people with Covid right now - my niece (vaxxed but not boosted), her fiance (vaxxed but not boosted), my brother-in-law, vaxxed and boosted and I will have to assume my sister has it as well. Everyone went to the Christmas gathering, we chose to stay home and I'm so happy we did. Thankfully all are on the mend and some have now tested negative.
Have a wonderful day, everyone!
