Thank you all for the thoughts. Arthur is getting his first chemo, along with a massive infusion of stem cells, today.
Related questions for Southeast-istas -- how bad is the weather supposed to be over the next couple of days? Hubs is in Athens, GA right now. The plan is for him to drive (with Arthur) to the Lake Norman, NC, area tomorrow and from there home on Saturday. The Weather Channel Web site says winter storm expected over that area over the next couple days -- only a few inches, but I know that it doesn't take much snow to snarl up that part of the U.S. completely. Better to wait an extra day or two?
I'd wait an extra day or two, Fred. They are calling for 3-6 inches starting Friday night, and for the temps to not go above freezing until Monday afternoon. I expect some snarl.
I'm sorry about Arthur, Fred.
Yeah, I don't think the Lake Norman area is looking at a lot of snow, but it'll get snowier as he goes east and/or northeast. And NC has not improved its ability to can when it comes to winter.
Remember the dog bite incident back in late November? I got a call today from a "legal investigator" for Petco who was asking questions about the incident. I'm assuming this is to try to hold me responsible for the worker's comp costs. I gave the facts, kept it simple, and we will see what happens. My home owner's policy would cover any liability. Just dang - two months later?
Thanks for the advice. It looks like they'll be okay tomorrow (Athens to Lake Norman) -- nothing worse than some rain during the day.
We'll play wait and see about the second leg. I-77 goes through a mountain pass just after you enter VA, and Hubs isn't thrilled with driving through it in the best of conditions. Plus he drives a car that doesn't perform the best in snow. Also, they'll be staying at the same place they stayed on the way down, and apparently it's very nice. Which means staying an extra day wouldn't be any hardship.
Also, just spoke to the oncologist -- Arthur has a 50-50 chance of remission. We've had worse odds.
I'm so sorry, Fred.
In case anyone is keeping track T home, second molars are infinitely worse than first molars.
I have a crush on my postman. He's adorable. Is it wrong to ask him out?
oh my god who am i?
Is it wrong to ask him out?
If he's involved with someone else, yes. Also, if he's a secret serial killer, focus on the UPS driver instead.
