Veterinary news

For those of you who haven't heard, Ellie came through her surgery on Tuesday with flying colors. =) I was expecting several days of recovery for her, but she was frisky and energetic right from the moment I took her home. She isn't having any trouble getting around, whether it's going up and down the stairs or leaping onto the bed or sofa. And she's playing just the way she always has, too.

Now it's just a matter of waiting until next week when she can (finally!) be groomed... My dog is cute when she's shaggy (or any other time), but she's really, genuinely pretty when she's properly groomed. Hopefully the groomer will be able to blend in her shaved patch in a way that looks reasonably natural. ;)

An update to the photo gallery, with two VBS pics, is on its way. I'd post more, but church council politics make that a bad idea right now. Really! There are two or three pictures I'd like to share, but you'll just have to ask to see them privately, since I don't feel like feeding the fire. Trust me, though... they're cute ones.
