Dan's final cast

Happy Birthday Blackie

Blackie is now officially 13 years old. It's hard to believe but 13 years ago we moved to the farm with 2 squirelly pups. Life was so simple back then. And they're was no slowing my 2 pups down. Now you when let Blackie out with out a leash, he's so old he can't go anywhere. He's put on a few pounds since the days of running 45 miles per hour. Now he just goes from the various beds and the couch. On nice days he likes to lay down in the yard with Anna and soak up the sun. He has developed a kidney disease but a special diet and pills seem to be helping alot with that. He loves the constant companionship of the boys. And his favorite place in the whole world is my waterbed. Him and Anna fight over it sometimes, or they just leave no room for Dan & I.

Updates

Little Dan is excited his cast is off! He still has 3 weeks before he can play catch. Although I've already caught him.
Eddie Ray had his surgery. Man what a trooper. He had an IV with no medicine to numb it. Then he went into surgery all by himself. Big eyed but no tears. He had a tough time not puking after surgery. But we had a blast all week long hanging out together. Although I will admit I'm okay with being done with "SpongeBob Squarepants".
Ricky will not have surgery, if tubes are needed due to his age, they will numb the ear, then slit it and put the tubes in.
After a long day in the hospital on Monday for Eddie Ray's Surgery, 8:00am to 6:30pm.
I had to turn around and take Ricky out to the ER. at 7:30pm apparently he caught a bad virus and had an infected ear. So I've not been lonely this week.
I wish I got paid to sit in Doctor's offices. The last few months I would've made a killing!
