Pace Oneself

This is Rocky. He departs tomorrow. As he needs to be groomed and I am not well at all, I started doing him here and there. 

Here is the gallery. Most I didn't get to comb out but will be trying tomorrow. Certainly those departing will be done. I am cancelling grooms other than boarders. When sweat is coming down your face, you keep running for the bathroom and you are dizzy as all hell and add sweats in, desire and capability don't often mesh. I am trying.

Dogs have been laying outside today on a stunning warm day. They have enjoyed. I went out to take some photos as Dennis only did a couple. I think the dogs were truly excited about this weather. They say cold again so this is just a tease. Go figure... it is April 1st.

Ruth is still in hospital but Katie is enjoying.

I know so many people getting bad flu bugs and colds right now. Makes me want to stay inside. Sorry you are ill. Feel better soon.

Oh Darlah, please take care.

Yeah this is horrid. Still sick. Still pacing ourselves - still cancelling groomings :-( Rocky done - Lachlan after I rest after pups. Wish I could comb out my own but they will have to wait. I so wish it was a cold. Oh well, eventually it will go. Trying to be all I can be.

There is a really miserable stomach bug going around right now. Maybe that's what got you. Not nice at all, so hope you're feeling better soon.

Hope it passes soon. I have not been sick since pre covid and this is awful. I will celebrate when it is done. Usually I can work through illness. I did with the number of double pneumonia's but this is saying - you only think you are superhuman. This is a clear reminder I am not.
