What is it they say? I have been busier than a one armed paper hanger in a windstorm. Every day I would think, I need to sit down and blog. Well here I am finally.
I managed to go to Dulcimer practice on Saturday for the first time in many weeks. A friend came and sat with Cowboy. We are doing a concert at the museum downtown on the evening of the 2nd of Dec and this is the only time I practiced with them.
Sunday the band did a gig at the library for two hours. I was tired and did not do my best but it went well overall.
The every other day change of the wound vac dressing continues as does the physical therapy. Cowboy is doing very well. The wound is healthy and he has no pain and the therapist is pleased with his work.
I had a follow up appointment with the eye doctor on Monday and I was pronounced doing fine. My phone quit and I had several little errands so Monday afternoon I took Cowboy with me to go take care of all of that.
Tuesday AM the dog had a grooming appointment at 7AM (ugh!). We dropped her off and I took Cowboy to IHOP for breakfast and then we went to WalMart. I needed some of the ingredients to bake for Thanksgiving. He walked around the store with me and did fine. He wandered off a few times but he goes so slow it isn't hard to run him down.
We had an appointment with the plastic surgeon today. After talking to her we decided to go ahead and do the skin graft. It is scheduled for this coming Monday. We are told that he should heal faster and are probably looking at a couple of weeks for it to be much closer to being in good shape. It took all afternoon to do the paperwork, etc for the surgery but we are all set. Have to be there at 6AM (ugh again !)
We are going to our grandsons and to one of our daughters house tomorrow. It is a three hour drive and we are doing it in the one day. Don't have much choice due to the need to be here for the wound vac treatment on Friday. I think seeing the kiddos will be good for Cowboy. They have all been around to visit in the last few months but we don't see enouigh of them. Everyone is so busy.
I just finished two batches of cupcakes and the last of two pies is in the oven. There is a bed waiting for me very shortly.
Cowboy is watching an old western music show on TV. He just loves it. I find him tapping his foot sometimes or pretend picking his guitar.
