just a small eye scratch.


I am sitting here with a wet dog shivering, wrapped in a Sponge Bob blanket. He is in between my arms on my desk. PU. Wet dog just is a smell one does not get used to. It is a holiday for the kids from school. We went on a 35 minute walk around the neighborhood, with Bing. He came home a muddy mess and needed desperately to be cleaned up.

Later we need to go to the eye doctor with Sam. He got between Nala (a 12 pound, angry (by nature) cat, fully clawed) and a puppy (less then bright - a very clueless when it comes to the cat hating him). Needless to say, warning Sam(4 years old) to stay away from the 2 during their conflicts, let alone getting in between the 2 during their barking - spitting match, falls on deaf ears. Sam ended up with a bit on his shoulder, a scratch above his eye and yes a scratch on the white of his eye!

I took him to the eye doctor and he does in fact have a scratch on his eye and now needs eye drops 4 times a day, along with his strep antibiotics! Man, that could have been REALLY REALLY bad. I am so thankful for the "little" injury. I just cringe thinking about how bad that could have been.

We are all fairing well and Sam is doing just fine. Thank goodness it doesn't hurt him at all!
