I haven’t written a random Friday things update in awhile! I usually use them to write about dogs and life updates, so that’s what I have for you today too.
[one]
While I had a few dogs scheduled to visit after our trip, I had to cancel on a few of them due to their care requirements and my inability to walk them! The ones I didn’t cancel were ones that don’t need to be let out often and that my family could help with. I did find that letting them outside and filling up their water wasn’t so easy for me, but it worked out.
Simon walked this one in the mornings.
She walks as slow as me!

I’ve been getting around the house using a knee scooter. I had borrowed one from a friend that it turned out was way more heavy duty than what was useful inside, and then another friend offered me a lighter weight one. However, I did use the heavy one to go down the block to the neighborhood 4th of July celebration. It wasn’t easy, but I made it there! I also used it to walk with Boba.
If you look closely, you can see where I had one of the kids’ friends write “out of order” on my heel. I have made a lot of their friends sign it!

Through Rover, I was contacted about doing a day of doggie day care for a little guy and after clarifying that I broke my ankle and can’t walk him, his owner said that was no problem. He was an easy guest for the day.
[four]
Things that are hard for me to do but I still do them sometimes – filling my water bottle, washing dishes, laundry, cooking…at least I’ve gotten the kids to mostly prepare their own lunches!
[five]
Things I need to do when I can walk again – reorganize my book shelves, go for my mammogram, take Simon for his 2nd scoliosis x ray, get my haircut, etc.!
Have a great weekend!
