So at my vet office, the vet tech comes in first to take her temp. Today she also clipped her nails for me. Poor puppy- two bled. This is precisely why I do not attempt to do this myself. Better someone trained that a nervous momma. Anyway, then the vet tech leaves and closes the door and we wait for the vet to come in for shots, etc. But the doors are slotted so you can sort of hear what is going on behind them (other dogs walking to rooms and vets collecting charts and such). Well today when the tech left and was handing the chart to the vet, she said the sweetest thing that I know she didn't expect me to overhear. She said that Sadie and I were super sweet and very easy going and that she would like going in to see us!! Awww- isn't that so nice?! A compliment by accident I guess since she likely didn't expect me to hear her say such sweet things about me. Totally made my day. Until we had to deal with the glands issue anyway.

So after our rather draining visit to the vet, (Nothing wrong- just due for all of her shots at one time. And then the little matter of full glands to top off an already stressful visit.), I decided that I needed a treat from Mickey D's. But instead of my expected Diet Coke, I tried something I have never before seen offered at McDonald's. Sweet Tea! I LOVE sweet tea! And Mickey D's will give you a big 'ole cup for $1. It was really tasty too. OK, maybe it is gross to true southerners. But this little Yankee has been away from the south for so long that my standards are much lower. I was tickled pink with glee. Just what I needed after an icky visit to the vet. Now if only I could find a good plate of fried green 'maters and a Chick-fil-A...
