wedding Do you know anything about Luxating patella? My dog is limping again and Dr Google says that’s what she has. The second round of X-rays showed nothing just like the first. We are not sure if we want to stay with our vet or try a new one. Our long time vet closed her practice and merged with a large animal hospital. DH has taken her there twice and didn’t really like it.

Your hair is cute wedding. Way to go to your big girl kim22! xolastunicornxo I haven't seen it yet but I've heard a lot about it because I love SK stuff. That movie always creeped me out. Gage is my little bro's name. I watched Children of the Corn and 28 Weeks Later recently on Hulu--they have a ton of horror movies. I've also heard House on Haunted Hill is great and plan to check it out.

The wedding: TLDR--it was a lot of fun, my husband and I actually danced, it was super modern, and no signs of Catholicism much to the horror of some older relatives.
The details--the ceremony was short and really sweet. The officiant was the maid of honor who was the bride's sister. There wasnt a single prayer or word about God. They didn't use the terms "husband and wife" but instead "life partners. " Instead of holy water they downed a glass of beer during the ceremony in honor of re-meeting at a beer festival. There was mention of loving cats which I wholeheartedly approve of. The music was all oldies like My Girl and Signed, Sealed, Delivered. They danced down the aisle.
That side of my family is super Catholic. This cousin of mine was a real ass as a kid and fully raised in the church--he went to the Catholic school, he was an alter boy. He has clearly left the church completely. He was also super nice. He's done a lot of growing up and maturing. He's also obviously become really liberal. In his vows he promised to always support his wife being a fierce advocate of women's rights. I'm sure my grandma was probably happy to be too deaf to hear it. I could see myself really enjoying my cousin's company now. His wife was really nice.
I was seated at the dead last table. 🤣 But I was with some relatives I actually like and haven't seen in years. My husband and I have danced a whopping 2 times during our 13 years together. We had a ball dancing. The music was great. He was complaining about going but we had a lot of fun.

P.S. thankfully I wasnt seated near my dickhead rich uncle who has nothing better to do with his money than murder animals. I was visiting with someone else when he came to our table to share photos of all the animals he killed in an African game park. 😡

Watched the first episode of The Haunting of Hill House. Super creepy. The dad in the flashbacks is Elliot from E.T.

That looks incredible lfig! I hope the weather and your jet lag are better tomorrow. It should be! I just found out they offer a “jet lag special” at the spa. If you book a massage for the first or second day of your stay it’s only $35 for an hour! So we are both getting that tomorrow for sure! And today they had a 20 minute complementary foot and leg massage set up on the beach for all arriving guests! So I did that already!

We are not sure if we want to stay with our vet or try a new one. Our long time vet closed her practice and merged with a large animal hospital. DH has taken her there twice and didn’t really like it. Usually they can tell a Luxating patella by feel- you can literally move the kneecap back and forth. I would get a second opinion. Her symptoms sound more like a tear in her cruciate muscle, which could be small and not noticeable to a regular vet but could likely be seen by a board certified radiologist.

Thanks for the hair compliments guys. I had self colored and it went too red and my hair felt like straw so I had to go to the salon for a fix and decided to do a big cut. It’s a little shorter than I would have liked but it looks a lot better. That’s not the best pic because of wind and hanging my head down so thank you!

I called the old vet and requested her records and made an appointment for Wednesday with someone else. My poor puppy isn’t using that leg at all this morning but seems to be getting around fine on 3 legs and doesn’t seem to be in pain.

Sometimes the only symptom of that is lameness. But it usually changes legs and doesn’t get better. May be worth the test though.
