Happy Thursday! Stewart offers a sock for a snack this morning. His face is still dirty from a roll in the muddy grass, but Golden fur is magic, and it will brush out as soon as it dries. We hope you have a great day. 🌄🙂

Good morning! Fusion recovery is going well, & I got a splint I'll be wearing for at least 10 weeks. Stewie brought me a box that fell off the table this morning, so he was rewarded for that. We hope you find something to smile about today. 🙂

Golden retriever holds a black box in hits mouth, hoping to trade for snacks.

Photo shows the back of a hand and wrist. There is an incision that runs from the middle finger, down the arm, to a few inches past the wrist. There are steri-strips all along the incision.

Good morning from Stewart and me! Morning ring check shows that my fingers are slowly returning to normal, but it's going to be a while. The bruising went up to my elbow, & I'm in the yellow stage now. 🤢 Stewart is his goofy self. 🐕‍🦺😊

Puffy, bruised fingers, one with a ring that only fits to the second knuckle.

Public libraries often have subscriptions to digital editions of newspapers and magazines that patrons can access. It’s a good way to read paywalled articles. Check your local library’s homepage to see what pubs they offer! #LibrariesRock #PublicLibrary

Well, well, well. Seems that Idaho sheriff is collecting disability from LA County. Yet he works as a sheriff and was trying to forcibly remove the attendee from her seat. Plot thickens. Bet Lear was paying him too.

Good morning! Today is my wrist fusion post-op. My poor green sausage fingers are finally starting to look more normal, but I won't be wearing my rings for a while. So ready to have my left hand back. Stewart says hello, too. 😉

I am, thanks. Post-op coming up on Tuesday, then will wear a custom splint for 6 weeks. 🙂

Thanks! Haven't taken opioid pain meds since yesterday, so that's a good sign. Stewie doesn't tug anymore, but he does try to run around a little bit, even though it makes him cough. ❤️

Kelly 🦮🌻🐝❤️👩‍🦳 @kiltfan.bsky.social · Feb 21

Good morning! I had a wrist fusion a week ago, so haven't been online much. Today, Stewie brought me a microfiber cloth, and I decided to share my green sausage fingers. I am bruised from finger tip to elbow. 🤕 I hope you've all been well. 🙂

The photographer's hand is wrapped in a medical bandage, with only the fingers and thumb showing. The fingers appear almost green due to bruising.

😆 Stewart loves the snow. He's originally from Michigan, so on the rare occasion it snows here, he loves being outside.

Kelly 🦮🌻🐝❤️👩‍🦳 @kiltfan.bsky.social · Feb 13

Well...it's snowing in Salem, Oregon. That's okay, but it's almost always followed by ice. If I weren't supposed to have surgery tomorrow, I would enjoy it. We'll see what happens. In the meantime, please enjoy these photos of Stewie, & our snow situation. ❄️🥶🙂

Oh, they are adorable! Of course, we also have a Golden who likes to get his treats via trade, so...I might be biased. 😆

Kelly 🦮🌻🐝❤️👩‍🦳 @kiltfan.bsky.social · Feb 12

Hard to pick the best from thousands, so I'll just share the most recent. This is Stewart. He brings me whatever he can carry, in exchange for treats. It's a morning ritual. 🐕‍🦺🙄😆
