Yesterday we went to visit my FIL. Can you say "disastrous visit"? All he did was complain. When he wasn't complaining, he was asking us to do things for him and then he would yell at us for doing them. The last straw was when he threw his phone across the couch like a 2 year old child. That was our cue to go home.
Once we got home, we tried to relax. Hubby and I tried to spend some quality time together, even if it was to just sit on the couch while watching TV. Hubby made a yummy dinner which was cut extremely short. While eating dinner I noticed that my puppy's right eyelid was swollen and about twice its normal size. I couldn't eat another bite. I was worried sick! He is my little baby boy! We ended up taking him to the ER Vet because I didn't think it should wait until morning. Thankfully, the vet said that he didn't see any kind of foreign body that would/could cause the swelling, but to be safe he put the pup on some steroids fo rthe swelling and sent us on our way home. So, $80 later the swelling has gone down and we are keeping a close eye (no pun intended) on our son.
Then, today I got word from my mother that my (great) Aunt is in the hospital. She broke her elbow back in July and has been in and out of the hospital and rehab. Now she is back in the hospital and it doesn't look good. She is having lots of problems with her heart and kidneys and now she has a blood clot in her leg. They can't give her more than Tylenol for her arm because of her kidneys and they can't give her a blood thinner for the clot because of her heart. Right now they are doing everything they can to keep her comfortable. I'm just glad that I was able to visit her this evening to tell her I love her.
So, please God.....enough already!
