Fog has kept hubby from taking the northern ferry at Pt. Townsend, so he's headed across via Edmonds & Mulkiteo. Needless to say, I'm less than thrilled. :(

Doodle is still protecting his bad leg and yelping every so often, though most of the time he has it curled under himself and it's not slowed him down at all. As I write, he's jumped up on the sofa and staring at me with his sweet doggie eyes from the back of the sofa. I've been giving him Ibuprophen at night to help. There's nothing visually wrong with the leg: no swelling or ulcer, full rotation without pain and the ligaments don't feel like they are tightening. I'll get him into the vet next week. We've always known that leg had an expiration date, but I'd hoped for a few more years. *sigh* Doodle's the kind of dog who won't care at all, thankfully. And certainly Flash, who is constantly at his side, will see him through recovery, as will his devoted pal, Libby. Anyone experienced in this, from either side of the table as it were, I'd love to hear from you.

I'm in the process of registering for the BRC (Basic Rider Course) for August 7, 8, & 9th. Unfortunately, they are still using snail mail, so I'm trying to get as much handled as possible over the phone. I've already arranged coverage for the bookstore that weekend. Cross your fingers for me, folks. I'm trying not to get too nervous, but anxiety and me are old pals.

Frankly, given Doodle's IQ (or lack thereof) I don't think he'll notice either.
