Another Scary Night -- Halloween Prep?

So, last night might not have been Fibro. I felt like I'd been poisoned, or filled with scrubbing bubbles, or the stuff you shoot into the wall to fill the void space, and it quadruples in mass... I'm not sure. All I knew was the pain was ridiculous, but just from the middle of my ribcage down to just below the bottom ribs. It was much more intense and debilitating than the five broken ribs had been. It lasted about 8 hours...

Kodiak was very worried about me. Here he is, battling cancer, and he's trying to take care of me. What a great dog. Still not sure how to return the favor. I do what I can. I guess that's what he's thinking too. 

And today we are getting our first snow.

Scary One Last Night...

I was sitting with the dogs, watching a movie, when my body started shutting down. Everything at once trying not to work. My immediate thought was to get into bed, hoping to sleep it off. But that meant shepherding the dogs as needed, including getting one into his kennel and then the other two up the staircase with me. Buddy went into his kennel like a charm. Kodiak could tell I was not in great shape, so he kept a little distance on the stairs. The new pup, Mr. B, did not understand at all, and thought it was a game. Fortunately he likes to win, so I tried to make it look like a race, and he bolted. 

All's well that ends well. I woke up an hour later, totally functional -- well, as functional as I can be. And Mr. B felt like a victor.
