Happy Monday! I am back in office as of today!
I want to thank everyone who sent their condolences to me after losing Max. Life has been very different at home since then. Routines are totally changed and I have been catching up on much needed rest. Max had been dealing with terribly rotten teeth since before I adopted him and this fall and winter they started to develop infections. Unfortunately, he was too old to operate on by the time I brought him home at 15 years old so it was just something we dealt with the best we could. The last month of Max's life his jaw really started to bother him so from December 25th-January 29th I hand fed him all his meals and also dealt with his senior bathroom schedule which had me up every 2, 3 or 4 hours and once or twice he had me up all night. It really was like having a newborn baby those weeks but we made the best of it. I'm starting to feel more rested now and am so excited to get back to work and interact with the public again. Valentine's Day is coming up this weekend and now is the perfect time to pick up a gift certificate for a unique and fun gift for your significant other ๐
