My name is whatever you decide and I'm just gonna call you mine
It's Friday! And at the very least, I'll have a half day off! I've got a doctor's appointment today at 11am, so I'm going to call out. If the visit is short, I'll go in afterwards, but if not, no loss, I've got nearly 70 PTO hours, so I'm not going to worry about it.
Yesterday was very full. First I had work, which was pretty busy. I finished up at 2:30pm and got myself together to take Boodle to her vet appointment. She was Not Happy and made Jess and I bleed our own blood to get her in the carrier. The vet didn't see anything egregiously wrong, so he did some labs, and we'll see how that comes out on Monday. Once we got to the vet, she was the sweetest, most docile kitty on the planet. The vet and staff loved her, and made over her greatly. She was 8.71 pounds and had one possible tooth that might go bad? He tried to poke below the gum line, but she bled a bit, so they weren't able to get a good look. She didn't react to it, which makes him think it might be fine. They're thinking that she might have a thyroid problem, since I mentioned that I thought she had lost a bit of weight. If that's the case, we'll have a choice between a one time shot that will cost $1000 or a daily med. If I can swing it, I'll do the shot this time. Medicating Sam was a giant pain in the ass.
Dad continues to be difficult. After telling my sister that he'd let them put in a feeding tube, he refused, and the doctor wants my sister to talk to Palliative Care. She's resisting, because he's still having the post vent delirium, and isn't really able to hold an idea in his mind. I understand, but goddamn, I'm tired. The confusion could last for another week or longer. It may never go away. So I think it's time we make some decisions for him, and this is really not a life.
Tomorrow will also be a busy day. I work in the morning, then I have games at 2pm and 7pm. It should be awesome. I'll be wiped out by the end of the day. But I'll have Sunday to relax, and then I'll play again Sunday night.
For now, though, time to get this day started. Everyone have an excellent Friday!
