Day One Hundred Thirty Two

Woke up early this morning and I just did 3 miles today!  I had a really scary morning.  My dog, Cooper, apparently has worms.  Ugh, I saw him trying to poop them out this morning.  He's had them for years.  I remember my mom telling me a couple of years ago that both he and their other dog, Suzie, had worms.  They were sometimes seen scratching their butts on the ground.  Yeah, I have no idea what that is, but anyway Cooper has apparently had them for years now.  I'll need to take him to the vet and get him dewormed.  I'm sure they have pills or something I can give him for that.  It doesn't seem to hurt him, he's always playful and happy.  He also tested negative for Heartworms, whew that was definitely a relief.  Anyway, I need to get him check out.  I just don't have the money right now so I'm going to just keep an eye on him for a while and I'll need to do a bit of research on that!  It doesn't seem serious, I'm sure all dogs get that because when you take your dog to the vet to get them vaccinated, one of the first shots they give is the deworm shot, which of course, deworms them.  Kills any worms that may have built up in their system.  So, it sounds common.  But, what do I know.  I'll have them tell me.  Thing is, I hate the vet offices.  They will give you the absolute worst case scenario just to get money out of you.  They did that with me and my cat.  One day, his blatter got clogged and he couldn't pee.  The damn vet ended up charging me almost a thousand dollars just to get that fixed.  They drained his blatter within ten mins of admitting him.  They they kept him there for about a week, giving him meds and baths.  They charged me $70 for one bath.  They must've washed him 2 times everyday.  I was disgusted!  So yeah, I don't trust vets.  They know their shit, but they give lost of unnecessary treatment to animals just to leech money out of their customers.  I'm not stupid!  Pisses me off.


Anyway, we also had church service today.  It was nice!  Had an ultra long business meeting.  That was insane.  I was so tired I almost dozed off.  I did talk a bit more about my fall festival that I'm holding at my church in October.  That'll be fun.  Lots to do, but first I have my big elk hunt coming up next week.  Just 7 more days until we leave for Chama, NM.  Lookin forward to it!


Well, that's about all for today.  I'm gonna get on Facebook for a while.  Goodnight!
