she's home sweet home!!!

i picked up my sadie lady this morning.  :)  with a heartfelt thank you to the staff at the bracebridge animal hospital for taking such good care of my girl.  she's pretty groggy and not liking the cone too much but she can now rest and heal comfortably in her own home. 

feeling groggy...

getting comfortable (with some soft food schmutz on her nose)..

snug as a bug in a rug...

she has her check up appointment on tuesday morning and i'm guessing sleeping is going to be her agenda for the next couple of days.  she does seem to be walking on her operated foot fine, her foot is quite padded but that's still good to see.

what i woke up to the morning of her surgery.  i love how the sun is just lighting the tops of the trees. 

 

we're hoping her recovery will be quick so she can get back to sniffin' sniffs and giving stinky kisses.  thanks to all.   your love and support has helped us through, much gratitude and love. 

until next time...

love

sadie lady's surgery

tomorrow sadie is going into surgery for a toe removal :( and while under a teeth cleaning.  :)  after having the growth on her toe for over a year it has finally hit the stage that she is no longer ignoring it and it needs to go. 

the problem....

the reason why we're doing the surgery....

she goes in for surgery friday morning and is scheduled to be home saturday morning with around a two week recovery.  i will keep everyone posted on how this sweetness is doing.

until next time...
love

what's in a month..

on october 3rd i received the call no arborhist's wife wants... ian's been taken to the hospital.  after my heart drops and the confirmation of it's 'not a chainsaw injury' i scramble off to the hospital.  ian's appendix had decided that it was time to leave him.  after days (i'm sure to ian it felt like weeks) in the hospital ian was finally home.  thank you to everyone for their love and support and well wishes, it meant the world to us.  xoxo

our thanksgiving was spent at home with a beautiful walk in our loving, healing woods. 

the photo that inspired my most recent painting that is now on display at the bohemian cafe and gallery in bracebridge until november 10th for the 'natural instincts' group of art show monthly show.

after a couple of weeks, with ian improving, things were going well.  we celebrated ian's grandmother's 90th birthday!  happy birthday sybil!!  xo  then the cold from hell (which i am still suffering from) came knocking on the door...making me miss halloween...again.  :(

our bowl of halloween 'candy'..

 but with a new month comes new promise.  i'm working away getting ready for the muskoka arts & crafts christmas show on november 26th 10-5 and 27th 11-4 at the bracebridge sportsplex.  ian's slowly entering back to work and the ground is still showing plus i don't mind the cooler weather, it means more snuggle time...

until next time...

love
