Buddy was funny at the vets. He tried to say no to going in, but the vet was coming in right behind him and helped get him in the door, then he just shivered, till one of my buddies up there walked up and then he just calmed down. I’ll have to make sure that guy knows I appreciate his help. I think he knew there would be sharp stuff near his male bits there! And horror of horrors, he’d be knocked out and his ears cleaned! Getting him a rabies booster too, considering what he thinks is fun out here to tackle. I need to buy boosters for the others when I get first shots for the three new pups. They apparently don’t like the noise of limbs cracking under ice, and growl up a tiny ferocious storm according to dad when he was out there.
We had folks calling in that they can’t work today, one I understand, one I sort of understand, but that leaves me maybe working overtime more when I’m already exhausted, or the boss going in when it will be even more dangerous. One of the two shifts is covered by the one employee who’s just lost her second grandma is less than a month. Her dads mom passed away two weeks ago, now she is having to set up funeral plans for her moms mom, and had to change the plans she had so she could cover. I expect I’ll have limbs across my driveway before dark, I’m tired, and haven’t slept yet today after being up all night, so I’m a bit grumpy about maybe having to work.
