Friday night was nice. After Eric picked me up from work we headed to get some dinner at a mexican place we both like. After dinner we stopped at the Silver Dipper and each got a scoop of ice cream in a waffle bowl. We didn't do much that evening.
Saturday morning we got up early and I headed to C'ville to get my hair cut. I basically just cut it cut up all one length. For some reason my hair grows faster in the back or something. Peg & Dad both loved the color which made me happy. I visited with them for a bit, had a bowl of chili, made a quick stop at the bank and headed back home. When I got home we took Godiva and went to get our Christmas tree. Eric thought with taking her she would be more used to it and not as likely to get in the tree when it's in the house. He was RIGHT! She did good at the tree farm and got many compliments and pats. This is where our weekend turned bad. When we got home Godiva got sick. We thought it was just nerves and maybe the car ride. We worked on getting the tree up and she ate, then got sick again. Both times it was just food so we figure she's just eating too fast and nerves. Then she got sick again. This time it was just liquid. I think it was her UTI medicine. She is still VERY active and mean as ever. Just can't keep her food down. I tried to even just give her an ice cube b/c I felt to sorry for her and she puked that right up. We've been feeding her a cooked rice, cottage cheese, yogurt combo as her meals and that is the only thing staying down in her. She's also getting pedialite. Both recommended when our oldest dog was a pup and horribly sick. Anyway, Eric's calling the vet today so I'll keep you updated. We did get our tree decorated and it looks nice. We didn't doggie proof it and so far we aren't regretting it. We do have some animated ornaments and one is doggie eye level. She noticed it and sniffed it or maybe she was sniffing the tree b/c she touched her nose to one of the branchs Eric had snipped and got some sap on it b/c everytime we cuddled her Saturday evening we smelled pine.
Update: I was right! The vet just thinks it is her medicine so they are just going to switch her med and that should take care of it! Yay!
A little note about Eric and some scary stuff that happened "near" him. About 1:30 am Sunday morning Eric was really worried about Godiva (as was I) so he headed to the grocery store to get the cottage cheese, rice and yogurt. Anyway on his way home he saw a head-on crash that was only maybe 10 feet in front of him. For some unknown reason this idiot was driving the wrong way on SR 52 (a 2 lane Highway by our house) with only his fog lights and blinkers on. No headlights! Eric said he didn't even see him until he was really close. Thankfully he was in the turn lane already. There was a black car that swerved and missed him, but a white car behind them didn't have time and hit the guy head-on (he was in a jeep). The driver in the white car was pinned in and we think he made it b/c it wasn't in the news. We aren't sure if the guy driving the wrong way was drunk, on drugs or trying to commit suicide. We will probably never know.
Anyway, yesterday was uneventful. We babied Godiva most of the day. I went to the grocery store and picked up a few things, had Taco Bell for lunch and just had basically a lazy, boring day. I made a taco dip for our luncheon today at work and we had grilled cheese for dinner.
