I am in a onesie on my couch because I spent $400 on my dog today preventing a $1900 overnight hospital visit because I recognized the signs of HGE quickly enough to pause it before it wrecked her. Did you know no emergency vets are taking animals right now? Also shout out to Mechanicsville animal hospital for literally taking my crazy ass seriously and helping me today - I will go to bat for them every day of the week.

That’s $400 I don’t have because we just spent $2900 two days ago on our 4 year old pups ACL repair. I’m never ever ever going to catch a break it seems.

Oh and the $25k doors I ordered 279 days ago that were supposed to be installed in June and were PROMISED to be installed on Sunday day are now not coming until sometime next week. Which once again makes me a liar to my team because the install company is like “lol my bad.”

I’m hanging on by a fucking thread and it’s not looking great.

Man big props for catching that with your pup. I am about 99% sure your team thinks the door company is the big fat liar and not you. I know all too well how it feels when some other party in a process drops the ball and the buck stops with you, but at the end of the day, you can only control what you can control and just try to mitigate damage for what’s outside of that

I'd think after 279 days your team probably understands it's not your fault

Hope the dogs get well soon and life stays boring for a while
