Wednesday (a week ago)

 So on Tuesday, when we left off, Defense was headed to the Vet bright and early Wednesday AM. Husband was still struggling with a kidney stone but was able to get him loaded into the back of the car. He really hates the ramp and he cannot jump in anymore :( 

I was a hot-mess express thinking about him and Husband called me en route to the Vet. He said that he was really not feeling well and had been encouraged to go to the walk-in clinic to make sure that his kidney function was still OK and to see if there was anything they could do to help.... I arrived at work and found what was basically a war room... we had a positive COVID case and we were trying to get parents notified that their kids were going to be remote learners for the next week and 1/2. At some point during the chaos of phone calls, contact tracing and material pick-up we found out that we had a SECOND positive case. Unfortunately the buses were already en route and we had to hold kiddos in their classroom until parents could come and pick them up. 

Around 1PM the Vet called confirming what we knew was the case... two torn "ACL's", major inflammation and no "cure" aside from major surgery. 

Thankfully, Husband's kidney function was OK but he was in no shape to go to track practice so I left work early to go home and pick him up to go get our big boy. Thank GOODNESS gals were at the CountryRents where we just zipped to pick them up and come home and crash. 

So just to re-cap, my pooch is getting bad news at the Vet, my Husband drove himself to the ER and we had TWO positive cases at school. 

Exhausted doesn't begin to describe it.
