Day From Hell

I think today was one of the worst days of my life.  It all started when I took Cruella to the vet for the repeat of her test that got botched last week.   I always have trouble getting her out of the car when we get to the vet hospital, and I can understand why.  She battled both cancer and peritonitis over the past year.  She beat them both, but it was a long, hard road.  And now she’s dealing with Cushing’s Disease.  So this morning, she just refused to budge when it was time to get out of the car.  After trying for a long while, I just gave up and took her back home.  I honestly have no idea what I’m going to do at this point.

It snowballed from there.  Practically everything that could go wrong did go wrong.  And now all I can think about is taking a vacation to some distant land - maybe San Diego.  If I stumble across some great airfare and hotel deals, I just may do it.

    I’m sorry to hear about your day. Hopefully it will get better. I’ve always worried that Buffy is going to do that to me when I bring her to the vet and just refuse to get out of the car, but so far she hasn’t. Once she gets inside and realized where she is it’s another matter, but than it’s too late. I wish I had some magic word or wand to wave to make your bad day go away and give you a great start tomorrow, but sadly I don’t. All I can do is wish you my best.

    I’m sorry you had a bad day too. Things will get better though. One thing we can count on is change. ;)

    I’m sorry about Cruella - can’t really blame her though. I was wondering if you could get the vet to come to your house? Some do that, especially for something like taking a blood test - Cruella would be much happier.

    Hope today is better!

    Woofs, Johann

    I really sorry to hear about things going wrong for you - I’ve had a pretty bad week all round and have been seriously considering just jetting off somewhere and going walkabout!

    :( I hope things turn around for you soon, and that you can finally get Cruella the care she needs!

    If you do decide to take a nice long sabbatical, can I come too???? :)

    Poor Cruella. I might run into that myself tomorrow when I take my 12-year-old girl to the vet for steroid shots; her arthritis is really bad of late.

    Sending happy thoughts your way.
