My stitches are supposed to come out tomorrow. I hope so. I'm tired of having to wear a sock to go outside. I also have to wear one whenever Mama is not watching me. I haven't played with my stitches, but Mama is not taking any chances. In case you are wondering, I wear a women's size 10 sock. LOL Daddy's were just way too big. It's been raining today, so I have to wear a white trash bag when I go outside. The cows were really staring at me this morning and I just wanted to say "What? Have you not seen a greyhound wearing a trash bag before?"
Our weather has been really nice. We have had 9 straight days of temperatures in the 80's. That is a new record for us. Unfortunately, it makes the grass grow fast. Mama is not happy about that since she will be the lawn care person soon. Everything is pretty though because it's green again. We have a lot of red bud trees here, so there are a lot of purple buds.
Mama is still sad about Daddy going to Hawaii. She is worried about us because we miss him when he is just gone a few days and she doesn't know how we will handle a month. I'm worried because Mama is not good at giving ear rubs. She said it will be more fun for us when I can get in and out of the Jeep on my own. I'm not supposed to do it right now because of my leg. So, for now, we will not be taking any trips. Her back can only take so much lifting of me. A ramp would solve that problem, don't you think?
Mama ordered bully sticks yesterday and they should be here on Monday!
Joey,
The Greyhound Who Hopes To Be Stitch-Free Tomorrow
Hi Joey!
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine the cows staring at a dog with a trash bag on his leg! You poor thing! I think you have shown amazing restraint to not pick at your stitches! Good for you! I only hope you aren't too frightened when the stitches are taken out!
Best of luck to you!
I feel for you with hubby leaving. Such a letdown for the first trip. Hoping the time flies by.
ReplyDeleteJoey...I'm glad you're going to be stitch-free soon. Take care of yourself and don't get too crazy too fast.
Nobody likes cutting the grass. It will be nice when you get the ok jump in and out of the Jeep yourself. I'm sure your mum will be very anxious the first time you do it though.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your stitches, you will be a lot more comfortable without them.
ReplyDeleteSocks and trash bags - you could start a new trend.
That is the only problem with good weather, the grass grows faster than you can cut it.

Good Luck with your stitches tomorrow! I feel bad for you and your Mom (and Scout) that you aren't getting to go on the first leg of your big adventure. But at least you have bully sticks coming to look forward to. Maybe those cows would be impressed with you if they knew about how many bully sticks you eat, LOL.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very handsome pose of you! I can understand why wearing a trash bag is beneath your dignity.
ReplyDeleteYou look stunning there on your bed! That's a calendar shot if you ask me.
ReplyDeleteI definitely think you need a ramp! You could keep your mama so much busier if you could get into the Jeep on your own!
