can't believe it has almost been a week

Where does the time go... it has been 6 days since i wrote... Larry is still sick.. finally took him to Dr on Thursday, who sent him to hospital for blood tests and a shot for the pain... just did a bit of good, so went back that nite for another one... that one didn't work much better, so ended back in ER at 8 am, and they put him on IV and gravol,and he stayed there all day.. can't figure why they put him on gravol, as he wasn't sick to his stomach...and then we were back again this morning for more blood tests as his hemoglobin was dropping... Dr figures he is bleed internally, so we go back on Monday for more blood tests.. and then more tests in Klps during the week... so i guess there goes my trip to Fibre Fest...i was planning on going down Thursday and staying with my Mom overnight, doing FF on Friday and then coming home.... doesn't sound like it will work... I am really glad the sheep are holding off lambing.. i just couldn't deal with that on top of everything else...
My girlfriend had a wreck with her African Grey parrot on Thursday...he tangled with her new pup,(8months), and he lost... torn loose his bottom beak... local VET has wired it together, so she will have to spoon feed him..he must be feeling better as he told her to "shut up" on the way home..he is not a people friendly bird, doesn't like to be handled and bites...i am so glad that Yankee and i are buds..he has never bitten me, even when we take the dremel tool to sand down his nails..or clip his wings... he takes my finger in his mouth and just hangs on, no pressure at all..
I am suppose to be going to agility tomorrow, they changed the date, will have to play it by ear to see how Larry is feeling...i sure hope he is better by tomorrow...times like this i wish we lived in the city... 5 minutes from the hospital, no fire to stoke, and no animals to feed. Just day dreaming.... take care...
