It was so nice to have a really great day. No pain. Only a little leakage from my incision. Baron surprised me by not trying to rush out the door to greet everyone that came up to it (we had our bug guy come and the guy from Fed Ex). I told him *stay* and he did. He stood at the door and watched but never tried to get outside. It's one thing we have had a tough time trying to teach him. He wants to greet everyone that comes in the house or just to the door. He's always acted like they came to play with him. But he was amazing today.
Even when the Beast brought in a visitor after he was done with some church stuff, he didn't rush the visitor (a very nice gal). I was extremely surprised and so was the Beast. It's about time. It's not like he's a pup. He's a 120 lb. doberman that's almost 8 years old! He's a BIG dog. Most people that have never met Baron before cower back because he looks like he's an attack dog. Ha! Lick you to death, maybe. LOL!
I truly enjoyed feeling good today. I helped make lunch and dinner. I loaded the dishwasher (my back wasn't hurting me even). I hung up clothes that had been washed and dried...by me. *Grin* The only downer I had today was a phone call from my friend in England. We had been talking online and he got tired of typing, I think and said he was going to call. It seems he had another heart episode and had to get the EMT's to his house. His doctor also came and tried to get him to the hospital but he said they don't really do anything positive for him and it's a losing proposition with his severe cardiac problem (his heart is over 40% dead in the main ventricle). He was told he only has about six months left IF he takes care of himself. He's the one that married an American gal he actually met online (it was a sweet romance) and now she is waiting for immigration approval in order to return there permanently. She had to return to the U.S. in order to put her house up for sale and retire from her Civil Service job. She also had to apply for immigration due to the laws of England.
His doctor wrote a letter detailing his medical problem in order to try to expedite approval for her and we are all praying it works and she can get back to him ASAP. It would be too sad to think of him dying without her at his side. He says he just wants her back in his arms. I hung up and cried.
The weather was perfect. It got up to 79 degrees and was nice and sunny all morning and most of the afternoon. Then the storm hit us. But it wasn't a bad one like the other day when we had hail and really big boomers. It also didn't last long. It's supposed to be partly cloudy tomorrow but we shall see. No rain had been predicted for today so you just never know what you are going to get.
I hope you all had a good day. Tomorrow is Friday and, for many, the end of the work week. Easter is this Sunday so I hope you have a nice get together with family and friends. Love you all. I wish you happiness, good health and lots of love. ***Hugs***
