Oy, I spent the day at the doggie cardiologist, cleaning, packing, cleaning up dog puke, contemplating my sick mom’s plea that I leave on Sunday instead of Saturday so she can have “parent time” (she’s been sick since literally last Thurs & I haven’t had a real convo with her since then because she comes [...]
