The No Good Very Bad Day
If only the day could have been bad because I have lost my cell phone (again), or because the screen on my company laptop cracked, or because I didn't have a Diet Coke. Today is a no good very bad day for all of us. Kenzi had to get her Kindergarten shots, which let's face it those hurt! But then we had to put our little Bailey to sleep. Bailey is our 4 year old Golden Retriever. These are the times when I wish we were millionaires, but Bailey our Golden Retriever developed a neurological disorder in which she was unable to urinate. Her bladder was the size of a basketball, and she is a very thin Golden Retriever. She also developed kidney failure because of this. I am very grateful that John did this, I just couldn't take her because I knew she wouldn't be coming home with me. She gave us a lot of bad days, she chewed my furniture, she dug many holes in the yard that I twist my ankle in, and she has run out of the backyard many times. She popped my back out and I had to go a chiropractor to snap it back in, she was our "Marly" dog; but she was still a part of our family and loved very much! Kenzi and Korbin are not taking this very well. We are going to each write Bailey a letter or draw her a picture, that was Korbin's idea that he got from "Marley and Me". Although Bailey did make us crazy at times, we did have a lot of good times with her. Korbin discovered she could pull them in the wagon, she took care of Sumo's kittens, she always cleaned up the floor after dinner, and she always had the look in her eye that just said I love you! We will miss you Bailey!
