On nights that I have orchestra, Pickle has maybe an hour between getting home from school and me leaving. So, on these nights, I make up for leaving her alone after being gone all day (even though she’s having fun) by having the cutest bed companion.

Scenes from the weekend. First time back on the (very easy side) river trail. Walked more in the last two days than I have in the past…threeish months. My knee is sore but it felt so good to get back out, and it was cool all weekend as a bonus.

She also dressed up as a dinosaur and with a festive headband at school.

Happy Halloween from the Pickle pickle! She had the time of her life seeing all the children out and about.

One of the best things about fall is being able to just sit in the sun with my girl.

My family’s beloved dog Morgan, who passed away earlier this year. And my cat Ponce, who passed a few years ago, far too early, from cancer.

Sometimes! Pickle will almost never get on the bed if Tiga is there as she is very well aware that he is the boss of the house, but sometimes she will share with Fisher since that’s her cat.

Smallest man, biggest bed.

Buy a house, they said. It’ll be fun, they said.

WHYYYYYY. I have approximately twenty three things that are a better use of my money.

Pickle’s foot is currently vet wrapped and to cope she is sitting on my lap in the recliner.

Four years ago (yesterday), this goof officially went from sled dog to best friend. She remains the best friend and adventure bud I could ask for, and I’m so ready to see what year five brings us. As always, big big thanks to @otterrunkennel.bsky.social for trusting me with this girl. 🖤🖤

Very brave girl at the vet. Hopefully the bravery continues for getting her icky foot wiped twice a day with medicine and being bootied.

Tiga made it back up to SEVEN WHOLE POUNDS. We are very proud of him.

Fisher, meanwhile, is mad about being examined and is going to be even madder since he needs a dental. Sorry Fish.

The peaceful sleep of a dog who is finally home, saw both her grandma AND her grandpa, and sat through ceiling demolishing. 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I have similar sleeps

So a small update re my surgery. TW body.

When the surgeon got in, he found that the damage was worse than we initially thought. While *technically* still a partial tear, my ACL was only holding on by a couple of fibers. Very thankful I opted to fix this now.

Also I got post-surgery cupcakes.

New ACL loaded.

And if everything else wasn’t enough, now this. Somehow this has to get paid for too, because naturally this is in my bedroom. Where I will need to sleep. After surgery.

I might just cry. This is a little too much and too many demands and I am only one person.

Well, after my appointment today, I’m officially scheduled for surgery next week. While it is not going to be fun, it’ll be the best option for being able to safely continue adventuring with Pickle for many years.

Pickle has been SO good with my walking limitations (I can walk her but it’s slower for sure) and she got a trip to the bar today as a reward.
August 17, 2025 at 8:33 PM
After imaging and a follow up with the regular ortho, my knee and I get to go to the surgeon next week to discuss how we want to treat the injury. This is very tiring. Pickle, however, is delighted to be spending so much time at her grandparents’.

This creature has decided this week that eating his diabetes pill is optional. He also gets so offended when I have the audacity to pill him. If only there was a way he could prevent that.

✨America✨. Naturally the contribution to my HSA that would let me pay this upfront has not yet hit. Is America great again yet?
August 6, 2025 at 2:24 PM
My body has no sense of timing and waited until the new insurance year for what seems to be a fairly serious injury. This is the work setup for ✨elevation✨ purposes for the next week or so, until I have my fancy knee picture. I think I’m going to hit my deductible and out of pocket early this year.
