Nicky seems pretty good today.   Tired and a bit confused but better.    We are adjusting.

I went to Hallmark today for their annual Christmas Ornament sale and have all but two of my ornament gifts.    Can't get them til October.

Got quite a bit done around the house so I must be feeling better to:)

Well, I got another lesson on giving Nicky's shots.   I think I was doing it right but am so nervous.    He is definitly feeling MUCH better and has gained a half a pound.     He has become a very picky eater and demands variety:)

I had my pick line flushed.   All is well.

Te rest of the day was at home.    I didn't feel well this morning so when I finished Nicky and my appointments, I took a nap and it really helped.   

Bart brought me lunch and enough four dinner.   Thanks Bart.     Just puttered around .   Tomorrow is the big ornament day at Hallmark so I will start my Christmas shopping.:)

Much too busy today.   

I had a doctor's appointment with my Arthritis doctor, Dr. Simon, this morning, then had to take Nicky to have his glucose checked at the vet.      Then I had to go to the Lab to have blood drawn for tests for Dr. Simon.

This afternoon, I cleaned and went to the grocery store.    This week is just cluttered and things are piling up.

Next week will be better and I will be used to taking care of my diabetic doggy.

Nicky is home again and doing just fine.    We are trying to get him to eat more at his meal times as snacks will goof up his "correct" insulin once he is back on it..    It is hard for me to not give him treats.

Saw my chiropractor today and he says I am holding quite well.   Another treatment in a month.

The rest of the day at home except for picking up a prescription for myself.

Had two visitors.    Barb bringing my protein drinks and my friend Robbie to measure Nicky for a winter vest:)

Have had a couple of rough days.      Nicky was getting weaker yesterday and could hardly walk today so I took him back to the hospital.     Turns out I have been giving him too much insulin.  Don;'t ask how, I feel guilty enough about it.

Dr. Fiorello kept him, for the day, of course, and gave him infusions of fluids.    I went to pick him up tonight and he was so happy to see me and headed for the door.    BUT   his sugars are still fluctuating, so he is staying one more night to get everything stable.    I will pick him up at about 11:AM after my appointment with Dr. Toy, my chiropractor.  The doctor says he will be as good as new in a few days, though he is still diabetic and will need (the proper amount) of insulin daily.  He had a skin reaction to the steroids too so looks a bit pitiful.     The assistants all promised that they will give him lots of love while he is there.   They love his little face with the crooked nose and the pug side and the chihuahua side.    

So again I am alone.     But it will end soon.     He is a good little companion.

I didn't feel too good this morning, kind of squishy, but I did go to Mass.    When I got home, Nicky and I took a 2 hour nap.

I still don't feel too well, but managed to get some things done around here and to keep myself occupied.

Talked to Leslie today.    She sounds frail but she is working at improving.

Talked to Bill later and to a friend from church.     Then Bart and I connected so I heard a few voices today:)
