well....I have FINALLY done something about the pool - this weekend is the big cleanup job.  I was telling my husband how frustrating and annoying the pool was to me and he replied "How can that be when you haven't even looked at it for 4 months?"  mmmmm.....he has a point.

The dog started his medication last night.  He actually DOES have a reason to be depressed - a grass seed had pierced his eardrum and he had been in major pain for over 6 months.  We had taken him to various vets about his ear but obviously none had really checked him out properly.    The experience has really unbalanced him.  Off to the pool ...
