The Day After


I have to go to work today, as I didn't work the day before the holiday. Inclement weather, plus pre-holiday driving, equals disaster. I was informed by my friend Sandy, who grooms Piccolo, that my baby had a nasty ear infection. So, we made an emergency visit to the vet. She's on twice daily ear drops that have to be refrigerated. She is unhappy to have the ear drops. The Man and I had to tag team this morning. He held her down while I applied the drops. Things like this make me feel that I'm a crummy mom to her. How could I have not noticed? Piccolo was sleeping so soundly last night after our trip to Wisconsin for the feast, that I didn't have the heart to wake her for cold ear drops.
A little leftovers for Thanksgiving--these baby alpacas were at the Fiber Expo in Ann Arbor last month. It's hard to tell from my photo, but the boy in the middle has silver blue fur, and blue eyes! I can't stop thinking about him.
An addendum to the last post--I bought a little Mocha cake from Dinkel's Bakery for Thanksgiving dessert, that was liked by everyone, including my nephew who doesn't like desserts. My mom agrees with the Man, that a frozen pie right from the oven is really good. Who knew.

I'm so sorry that your Piccolo isn't well, but glad that she's getting better!
