The Good and The Not So Good
Today is the day that our sweet little Brody had to undergo surgery. He has had goop in his eye for almost a year. We cannot get it to clear up and believe me, we have tried. We tried ointment that had to be put in his eye every four hours. I was diligent with that and it did not help. I had the vet give us allergy pills in case our Indiana weather and pollen was causing his eye to fester. I thought that was unlikely since both eyes were not having the problem but I gave it a try. The allergy pills only made him sleepy.
Brody’s surgery involved cutting the inside of his eyelid where his eyelashes curled inwards. The vet also flushed both of his tear ducts. While there he was neutered and had a micro chip installed in case he were to run away or get lost. He is an escape artist so this is a good thing.
I got a call from the vet who was laughing as she told me that everything went well. She was laughing because Brody is already running around the clinic. You can’t keep a good dog down!
The not so good of my day:
I took my sewing machine in to have it serviced. I did not want to part with it but reluctantly took it in for its yearly check up. I picked it up and was so glad to sit down to sew. I had everything lined up and began sewing. All was good until I lifted my foot off the pedal to stop the machine. The machine kept sewing! It is possessed. It doesn’t stop sewing when I tell it to stop. This is not good. Ugh. Back to the repair shop it will have to go. I do not have time for this. I WANT TO SEW!

Oh wow! Brody got the works! Hope that takes care of the eye problem.
I really need to take my machine in, never have, I just never think about it unless I’m sewing and don’t want to do it then! LOL Hope they get your foot pedal fixed.

He is doing much better today. The antibiotics make him sleepy. The sewing machine store traded me foot pedals and I have been sewing today.
