Totally my fault. Yes he gets lots of exercise and mental stimulation. Yes he has lots of chew toys. Yes we try to clean up hazards so he doesn’t chew them. He’s learning slowly but surely what toys are for him and what he’s not supposed to touch. He’s a very good boy who just needs some time and patience to get better please no negative comments.

First post op appointment after my knee surgery and after developing an infection. Very important I be seen today. Took off work for this appointment because one of my pre op appts had a 2-hour wait. I had to be driven here because I can’t drive myself.

Walked up to the front desk when I arrived and then was told I was good to sit down, they’d check me in because of my crutches. Waited about an hour and then asked how much longer. They said they forgot to check me in.

The person I talked to said she would have to check if I’d be able to be seen today. I definitely had some kinda look on my face because her coworker saw me and was like no no no just add her to the schedule and we’ll explain.
