I felt down about it all day and from the stress of four bus rides with my dog in the mild but filthy March weather. It took a while to unwind. But just now i took a break in my bedroom and huggled and snuggled with my dog on my bed and enjoyed her luxurious fur which she will only have for a few more days as she is getting groomed on Monday. Another ordeal but i will have my one close neighbor with me so it won't be so bad and just $100 and we'll go in style in her car.

Everything's so much harder with this mild depression. It just casts a shadow over everything. Beware those of you considering pets: it's expensive and care is an ordeal if you're depressed.

But i got it done! I guess that's something!

Oh goodness what a vet bill ! Eeekkk !!!

I worry all the time about unexpected need for vet care for my 3.

I hope that your depression starts to ease as spring gets closer and closer.
