Snow, Medical, Beans


It’s snowing in the panhandle of Oklahoma!!!  Tonight, in southern Oklahoma, we’re to expect frost.  I’m debating on going out and covering my peas, or just waiting to see if they’ll make it.  Temperatures are predicted to go back up into the 70’s over the weekend.
 
 

Bulldog Man’s doctor decided to operate on his right hand and arm, cleaning out around the nerve.  This nerve runs up his arm into his neck. Somewhere between the hand and neck the nerve is pinched, creating migraines.  The neurosurgeon would rather start attempting to eliminate the migraines, and neck issues, first with the minor surgeries, instead of going directly for the more serious surgery of cutting his neck open, and working from the front of the neck into the back, to work on the nerves and vertebrae.  If doing minor surgery resolves the medical problems, then we’re both okay with this decision.  Bulldog Man is taking it easy for the next couple of days and will return to work on Monday.  He’ll need to keep an eye on his hand and arm; stitches will be removed in two weeks at the follow up doctor’s appointment.
I know you're talking about me!
This morning, Beans went into the Vet, for his yearly teeth cleaning. He wasn’t too happy with me; he thought he was going for a ride in the truck, not a ride to the Vet.  The Vet called and stated Beans did really well, his teeth are clean and good, no extractions.  He’s a healthy, beasty boy.  Yes, he’s slightly overweight and spoiled.  I’ll admit he was overweight when we rescued him, but this didn’t make me love him any less. 

I don’t have a lot to say today, I just wanted to let everyone know I’m alive and reading everyone’s blogs.  Have a great weekend, and stay warm.
