It's NOT Cancer!

Hello readers! I am happy to report that Poo Poo is totally fine (hmm, shocker?). Actually, she hasn't really lost that much weight (0.38 pounds to be exact) and though the vet didn't come out and say it, sounds like I am the one with the issue (go figure). She said that they could do the blood work and x-rays or try some acupuncture (there was a merge of Eastern and Western philosophies going on in her head) and she told me she is leaning more towards the acupuncture. So, that is what we did and I am a big believer in that kind of medicine and Poo Poo did all right. She did not eat dinner at all tonight, but I expect that after a day to the vet…

…But as you can see in the picture below, she is saving her dinner for bookmark ribbon. Go figure!

Rest day today (two on and one off) and I was really happy about that. I have hip pain, my thighs still hurt and I tripped over the baby gate to the kitchen tonight at dinner because I just cannot seem to lift my feet off the ground high enough to function in normal society. Yeah, yeah, I know. Quit my bitchin'.

I was sure to pick up mini water bottles at the store tonight to carry around in my pockets for long runs. I am off very early in the morning (I have a full day!) for my four-mile square loop and now I will be well hydrated. I drove the long way home towards the end of the day to check to make sure the roads looked "safe" enough to run on out past the road I live on and ran the past couple of days. Had to take some beautiful pictures for you all. It is three days post winter storm here and it still looks like it just snowed this morning. Have I mentioned how much I love North Country?

Oh, and the sun poked its head out tonight and I had to show you proof of that as well. "Red at night, shepherds delight!" I am hoping for sunshine in the morning!

 Until next time!
