All's good in Pollywood. I think! Although I will admit that +5.5=29 gave my heart a bit of a pump. Retests calmed me down a bit (59,55), but the girl's ear will get a bit of a work out for the rest of the morning!
Again, the two girls shared the bed with me last night. A comforting new normal. Rowsie has really mellowed recently. Oh, she can still give "the look" and send Polly growling under the table of chairs, but it's no longer such a "normal" event. Guess even tortie terrors can get a little soft with age!
Will wandered off on our desert walk last night. Not unusual. But he's never far and always returns within just a few minutes. Not last night. He was a couple hundred yards away, just beyond the field fencing in someone's back yard playing with two dogs. He'd gotten through an open gate into the yard, but couldn't figure out how to get back out. (He's at the shallow end of the lab gene pool.)
His walking buddy-dog came loping out when my friend and I headed back toward the car, but poor Will couldn't figure out that he'd have to back track to the open gate to get out. He just chased along the far fence line trying to reach us. A bit of panic in his eyes. A bit of panic in mine, too.
My friend drove up to the house, about 300 yards from where the car was parked. And really had to entice the boy to come back to the gate and get in her car. He didn't want to lose sight of me.
Hey, at least the anxiety settled him into a deep sleep when we got home! Me, too!
Darn dog.
Vines and wishes.....and Polly, surf, girl. Surf.
