It’s time for your Ridiculously Random Update.  Please try to refrain from shouting it from the rooftops- those broken legs were too much for me to handle last time.

Sooooo,

Do any of you remember this post I wrote over a year ago titled:  No price tags on little lives?  If you don’t wanna read it, here’s the nutshell- We had been saving for a down payment on a house, one of our little doggies suffered a spine injury, we opted for the surgery to save the use of her legs (hopefully), and bye bye money for house.  It was a success, and after weeks of physical therapy- she was walking!

If you can believe it- we found ourselves in the exact same position weeks ago.  EXACTLY.  Same disc problem.  Same paralysis of the legs… same surgery.

She is recovering nicely.

We call her Lucy the Wonder Dog.

I’m thinking of changing it to the Twenty Thousand dollar Dog… or The Condom Pooper… haven’t decided.

Here’s your Wonder Dog update:

And now, as most of you know, as part of my “year of the scary” I’m trying to refrain from dying my hair.  I don’t know- maybe I’m trying to embrace the real me, or maybe I’m just curious to see how gray I really am.  Several years ago my hair all of a sudden started growing out almost completely gray.  I’m talking, at least 80% of my head.  So, it’s only been about a month- but here is your update on the state of the gray:

It looks like shine from the light…

It’s totally not.

PS- I love you more than a block of cheese.
