Weekend Update

Dog
M and I took Aki to the ‘pet launderette’ on Saturday for a much-needed bath. We’ve been battling the smell we’ve taken to calling ‘old dog smell.’ The bath was thorough and relaxing for us all. We had fun. But, as we left the shop, Aki squatted and peed a red stream of urine. Not good.

A trip to the vet confirmed that she has a major urinary tract infection that requires nuclear powered antibiotics. She’s now taking them. What we learned is that the ‘old dog smell’ comes from the infection.

Still, this keeps Aki’s looming death at the forefront of the family collective consciousnes.

House
Open House with some visitors this week. It just didn’t seem like an Open House sort of weekend.

Family
This being Ayyami-ha, we celebrated a bit this weekend. Saturday dinner was Snow Crab and Lobster tails. Then we had family game night playing Pit.
