I woke up this morning with an ear thing. It feels/sounds like there is fluid trapped in my ear. I am sure it is drainage since I have been off my allergy meds for almost 2 weeks. I do the testing on Monday so I am almost there. Besides, I am no supposed to take a decongestant because of my heart and that would be the drug of choice to dry that up. I would try anything though. So far it doesn't hurt, just aggravating. I would say I have never been this excited to be poked repeatedly with a needle but...tattoos.
I haven't weighed. No reason other than I just haven't. I will have to get on the scale Monday at the doctor. I am also thinking about going to my doctor for the extreme fatigue I've been experiencing. When I stayed home from work on Wednesday I literally slept until 10:30 (11 hours) and took a short nap. That isn't the norm but I feel like it is getting harder and harder to get out of bed. Some of this may be the Saxenda but I'm not sure. I guess it could be the sinus issues hitting me like a semi also. I will see what the allergist says Monday before I move forward appointment at my regular doctor.
My trainer sent me a message this morning telling me that she has two groups open up for training if I want to join. Small group fitness is half the price of PT so I am all kinds of on board. It is at 6:30 pm T/Th so the times are good as far as getting my animals fed and hopefully getting Dennis home to supervise Bailey. Yes I know he can be crated. I am going to have to cancel my therapy session for Tuesday. I haven't been since before Christmas. I have made several appointments and cancelled them. I have tried to get the appointments set up on my telework days so I wouldn't have to take leave but to be honest I think it would be easier to just make one in the afternoon while Bailey is at dog care. I will have to go on his appointment site and see what he has available. I don't feel like going right now, which is probably why I need to go.
I am supposed to go to a hockey game on Sunday with A and HMF. A has taken an interest in hockey and has been doing a learn to skate class, week 1 (he skated for the first time 12/27 over Christmas break) he tested out of base level and moved to level 2, week 2 he gets promoted from base 2 to hockey level 2/3, Week 3 he is asked if he wants to be promoted to the metro team. They practice once a week and have one game a week. Keeping my fingers crossed he can hold it together for a group sport. Maybe this will help him channel some of his frustrations. He will be 9 on February 1 and I hope going to the game will get me out of going to a party with a bunch of kids, lol. Honestly, I love hockey so I'm not complaining. Seriously though, I need to get him something for his birthday since didn't do anything last year. His actual birthday was the day Libby died and his party was the day Cookie passed. It was a hard week for me...hell last year was just hard.
I am getting aggravated at Bailey's day care. I understand they don't let unaltered dogs play with other dogs in general, but we are talking about a puppy here. My vet doesn't want to do the snip until May, which I am going to go against and do it in March at the latest. Anyway, some of the kennel workers will let him out to play, other won't. I always take some toys for him to play with, kongs and other busy toys, to keep him occupied, but some times it doesn't look like they put the toys in his kennel. That doesn't make any sense to me. You can't tell me that they put a hoof full of peanut butter in with him and he never touched it in 8 hours? I know my boy better than that. It doesn't help that they don't have cameras. I know they let him out because I have seen him when I had to leave at lunch time but he was alone with the kennel attendant. Monday I am taking him to a different place, one that we use for grooming and that most people rave about. It isn't conveniently located like the current one but that's the price you pay. They told me they would let him play with the other dogs because they require all of the dogs OVER 6 MONTHS to be altered so he should be fine at about 5-6 months. Now that makes more sense. They said that if we don't get him fixed until March they will work with that. He really needs to play since my old dogs don't want anything to do with him. We will see how it goes at his temperament test on Monday.
Lets see if I can make it through the day. If my ear starts hurting I'm going home.

When Josie started daycare and was too young/small to be spayed yet, they put her with only female dogs to play.
ReplyDeleteI hope the ear thing went away.
Sorry about your ear. How irritating!
