After John got home from work last night, he and I went to get our little Lon-Lon. They brought her out and she was so excited! She ran immediately to John and started her twirling and whining....whenever she sees him she pushes her body against his legs like she is trying to get as close to him as possible, and she whines like she is in pain. He was petting her and she was loving it. Then she noticed me (story of my life), and put her paws on me to say hi. As she went back to JB, she tinkled a bit on the floor. Well, we thought she tinkled....but when I looked again it was definately pink. Luckily the vet was standing there talking to us and said, "Maybe I should take her back and look at her really quick." Good thing she did....
Apparently London's body had a reaction to the sutures on the inner layer (her outer sutures were fine), and her body was destroying them. She had lost one by then so the doctor had no other option but to go back in and fix them. However, since she had the reaction she did, the vet had to use permanent staples. She called me back last night and said everything was fine....they had her on morphine and she was done with her second surgery. So from now on, if she would ever need an operation, she has to have staples....sheesh.
It's been weird not having her home for two days. I have to call in 20 minutes to find out when I can pick her up. Oh, and I told John he is NOT coming with me this time!
My bed is covered with ironing. I mean COVERED. I have been slacking lately....and my family has been complaining because they are wearing things that they find in the back of their closets....I knew it was time when Betsy came out with a Backstreet Boys t-shirt and said, "Mother, I am NOT wearing this...." LOL. I figured if I put all of the ironing on my bed (and yes, it is sorted into neat piles according to age, and the hangersare all arranged by color and facing the same direction), that I would have to finish today if I wanted to go to bed tonight.
JB grilled some really good steaks last night. I have been craving meat all week. I've been on a "healthier lifestyle plan" lately. I've been walking 4 miles a day and watching what I eat. But sometimes a girl just needs her protein! I did my grocery shopping yesterday as well....I probably should have added all that walking into my daily total! I did get a corned beef for Friday. However, I forgot the cabbage and new potatoes. I guess I'll be making another trip to the store....
Okay, time to call about my lil' Lon-Lon....I'll update later on how she is!
