I know I have been "missing in action lately." I have missed you all, and always keep you in my heart. I have been so busy, and quite stressed and cranky!
Max needed knee surgery. He came home on Saturday from Cornell Veterinary School. He has had luxating patellas for a couple of years no0w, but his ACL tore, and his knee was so out of the joint that it was on the side of his knee. He was walking on 3 legs when I took him to the vet.
It is a 3 hour ride, and he was there for almost a week. It cost a fortune! I will pay it out, with no interest....luckily! I have to do his rehab exercises soon.
He will be fine. I was just so worried. Jess and the kids had pertussis (whooping cough), and the Bd. of Health contacted me to go to the doctor for antibiotics. It is very contagious. I did not tell everyone I came in contact with. I cannot even remember all of the people I was with, but I did not catch it, so I wasn't contagious. It is a big problem what with parents opting out of vaccinating their children.
We had the heat wave everybody else had, but it cooled down today. I can't think of what else has been going on here. My car is acting up again! The stick shift needs to be checked. I just had the damn thing fixed! I am very unhappy with this car's gear shift and wish I could get another car. Not now!!!
I have been unhappy lately. I don't know why though. I will figure it out. I think I am bored. Jess and the kids have their own lives, for which I am glad. My summer friends are here, and that is wonderful. The pool is lovely. I think I feel that I am just too self involved. When I was teaching, I always had people to give to, which I really don't have now. Maybe I'll find some volunteer work to do.
