~ puppy came home today. Goes back tomorrow morning, but he’s home for the evening
~ 7 tee-shirts at the resale store for $7. For the dog. He doesn’t wear clothes usually – but they help keep him from chewing on his bandage
~ Got some stuff done. Still have more to do, but I’ve made a lot of headway.

How I did it: I kept thinking of things, things from childhood, things from adulthood. I looked at pictures. I racked my brain & searched my memory. It was really hard to come up with stuff about HER, and not about ME. Because she focused on the people around her, not on herself. I had to rely on what I KNEW about her, not what she told me, because she didn't talk about herself. In the process I remembered her ho… Read how I did it…
I didn’t have one for yesterday. I mean, most of yesterday was okay, but all the evening drama with the poor dog overshadowed things, so I couldn’t remember specifics, anything that made me specifically happy. So on to today.
~ The surgeon sounded really nice, caring on the phone. He said the puppy was doing well – seemed comfortable at the hospital, not scared or anything. He said the wound looked good – at least as good as it can.
~ weather was nice today. Thought it was going to snow, but it didn’t.
~ the man has been really supportive through all the puppy stuff. He’s just as upset about it as me, but he’s been holding me up.
staying overnight at the vet again. He could have come home for the night, but would have had to go back first thing in the morning. Plus at the vet, he’s moving around less, which (hopefully) means he’s healing faster. I feel like a bad pet mom because I didn’t insist on picking him up & bringing him home, but I really think it’s better for him to stay there.
