After a good night’s sleep and doggies who realize that 4 AM is not the time to wake us up for ‘outside’. I woke up, got the “kids” outside and fed them breakfast. While all that is not too impressive for anyone…what was impressive was that I for the first time in probably 2 years actually gave our diabetic kitty Iris-Pants her insulin shot! Successfully! I’m the girl who can’t give shots, which is one thing that holds me back from being a nurse (well, that and my inability to deal with feces). However, today I just set my mind to having to do this and do it successfully. The Jim’s been doing it for almost 3 years now and he’s a pro. It litterally takes him just a few seconds every morning. I just woke up, got the needle, concentrated, filled the needle, called for Iris who seems to know she needs it every morning, grabbed the skin to find a good place, in push and DONE! She looks plucky so, I actually think I got it right. Woohoo!
Okay, so it sounds more elaborate than it really is right? This is our little slice of internet nonsense, which basically is our on-going effort to keep our friends and family up-to-date on our lives, our love and our continuing pursuit of pomegranates. In this modern age of movement, we’ve realized that distance is not an excuse to not keep everyone posted, so please - stop by anytime - in person or internet-ly and know that you are all never far from our thoughts.
