Pups, Laughs, and Needles

After we had the Great Dane, a repeat came for a few days. We had watched Sophie a whole year ago and she is such a sweetie. She loves going for walks but is probably not used to very long ones. We were almost home and she begged Faith to carry her the rest of the way. Who could resist this face?

Then I was back with Anna for a couple of days. She recently had surgery to remove a few cancerous tumors and just had her stitches removed. It didn't seem to slow her down much and we were able to do walks just like usual. On our last walk before I left I rolled my ankle, walking on a nice flat surface. I don't know how it happened and yes it was my injured foot, so believe me when I say that it hurt. I iced it before I left for home though, and I'm back to limping. Yea me.

Last weekend, I was back at Luna's who I just stayed with over the 4th of July. It was a pretty short stay so I enjoyed that. She's the one that takes meds for anxiety and we were going to a comedy show that night, so she got her dose soon before I left. She did really good while I was gone and greeted me very happily and even brought me my bar of soap that she had found and used as a chew toy. Thank goodness she didn't eat any.

The comedian we went to see was Tig Notaro. I discovered her a little over a year ago but she's been around for a long time. I just fell in love with her. She has a way of drawing her true life stories out, and although much of it is tragic, she makes it absolutely hilarious. Such as "I think I performed in Spokane a long time ago; back when I had tits." We really had a great time and it was nice getting out although I stayed up way past my bedtime!

Tony is still having leg issues and decided to give acupuncture a try. We were watching a nature show about it being used on an elephant and he said "if it works on an elephant maybe it will work on me." He's only had one treatment so far but is willing to try a total of 4 to see if it will help.
