The dog that's limping needs $3k of surgery to fix her knee, and the vet called back this evening and told me she's got cancer, too. She only 6 years old, bouncing around and full of energy, friendly and lovable. *sigh* Just what I need.

And, instead of working today, I finished all the christmas stuff that needed to get done and into the mail, and ordered everything that needed to be ordered. So, christmas is mostly done, and that's good.

Now I just need to clean the house for the hoard that are coming for dinner tomorrow. It'll be good to see them, and I'll enjoy it while they're here, and I'll enjoy the clean house after they go... but right now...

I think I need a hot bath and an early bedtime, tomorrow things will look better.
