So…Coops is definitely in some distress eye-wise. I’m glad we (Liz) took him to the eye doc today because they were very concerned about this infection that apparently developed over the weekend. ‘Very aggressive’ was the term they used for how they were going to treat it. Ie – it’s bad, and it needs to be dealt with quickly so it doesn’t spread.
My boy is on seven medications right now. SEVEN. Just for his eye. That’s not even counting anything else. And several of those meds have to be taken every six hours, so Liz and I will be splitting “get up in the middle of the night to give Coopey his eye drops” duties. She’s taking the 1am. I’ve got the 5am. Should only be for a week. Marked improvement before his Friday re-check is what we’re aiming for.
The good news is that he’s otherwise acting normal. Hungry. Wants to do his normal routine. Pep in his step on walks. So, I take that to mean the issue is still localized. Just in his eye. And this aggressive treatment is to make sure it stays that way, and then heals up.
That’s the Cooper Report. My bubs. Still being my shadow. And it’s wild, but he’s so comfortable and relaxed at the vet, lol. Liz said he literally fell asleep while he was being examined. So funny.
Work was busy. Got my manuscript back today, too, early. Apparently Craig actually sent it to me on Friday, but I didn’t see it until just this morning. I wanted to have it turned around by right now, but work didn’t let me. I had other stuff to dooooo. Tomorrow, though, for sure. 200 pages in the morning, 200 at night. Bingo bongo. Off to our proofreaders. Catch all those last niggly little typos.
It’s a good book. One of my best, no doubt. That’s satisfying to know. I’m getting better. Bit by bit. So much further to go…but I’m getting there.
I really don’t like not writing at the moment. I just had that thought cross my mind. It’s wild to realize that! My day doesn’t feel right if I haven’t done my writing sessions. It’s that much a part of the fabric of my day to day, now. WILD. I’ve worked so so hard on that, you guys. Years of work. To get to the place where I don’t feel normal unless I’m writing something. Magic.
Yeah. Can’t wait to get back to work. It’s the giveaway novella next (finally)…and then book 6! Let’s gooooo.
Night night.
