Waiting on bloodwork. Most likely a post Covid inflammatory thing or it reactivated Lyme. Either way ugh

Headed to GP later. Hopefully they can sort this muscle issue. I’m tapped out after 6 days and sleepless nights 🤕

Coming up for air. It has been a tough two weeks but I’m surviving. The antibiotics helped pneumonia but I’ve been left with severe muscle pain in my legs each day. It’s been a struggle.

Franklin collapsed and is back in the hospital. She rallied well after incident but they still aren’t sure what is causing it. They are admitting her for monitoring and to start steroids. It is possible this is IMHA which is treatable. If you’d like to help gofund.me/4dc9dd872

Lou takes caretaking seriously. Mom caught a virus. 🦠 so much stress and grief caught up to me.

I chose to bring Franklin home and provide palliative care. She will see her regular vet tomorrow 💔 I’m heartbroken but I do not believe in putting animals through major surgery if there is little to no benefit. She’s my good girl. Ben is keeping watch over her.

It’s that time of year again. I’ll have a handful of slots open for needle felt creatures. Most people give them as gifts or hang them on tree. Message me if you are interested.

Musings from the Barn🐴

The herd is celebrating the inclusion of the word "boop" in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. It took so long for it to finally happen. Patrick happy to demonstrate. 💚

transitive verb
informal
: to touch (someone or something) briefly and lightly especially while saying "boop"
