Oh no, it's NOT my toe. . .


It's a good thing I'm a professor and not a proctologist!!

Would you, could you possibly believe I hurt another part of my body??? Well, believe it folks. This time it was my klutzy fault. Actually, our pup Payton hasn't been feeling well. I made the mistake of petting her while she was guarding some food (even though she'd refused to eat it). And she bit my finger!!! She immediately stopped, rolled over and submitted, but the damage was done. As it stands, I'm not sure whether it's broken or not. I see the doctor tomorrow (yes, I refused the ER). Needless to say I haven't been typing. . or doing anything but taking some pain medication!!

Now before you think bad things about Payton, she wasn't herself. We took her to the vet --knew something was going on with her, but didn't know what. We've since found out she has pancreatitus (sp?). So she was in a significant amount of pain. We now have several medications for her and special food. She's doing a little better now. . even wagging her tail. Thank goodness for a smart vet!!

Anyway, that's why I haven't been around here lately. I'm still thankful because even though the tough times God is good!!

So sorry about your finger and your doggie. It's difficult when they can't tell you what hurts.
