New Year, new beginnings

Happy belated New Year! 

2010, start of another decade. It does sound kinda weird have to say “twenty-ten” or ” two thousand ten” or to write 2010 on checks and while saving my reports that I had generated this morning with “2010″ at the end of each file name. 

New year with new medical insurance carrier too. I didn’t get instant life insurance quote from my insurance company since I opted out of it this year.  It’s lighter on the paycheck, definitely.

If only I can get insurance for this dog. Unfortunately, I can’t even when we first adopted him 10 years ago.

The collar around him was to prevent him from licking his very bad paw (the one that is bend) which he injured when we went for a walk.  He must have stepped on broken ice and also probably salt on the roads and our driveway.  The paw was so bad he actually yelped when I washed it and applied antibiotic cream on it.  Ranger never ever yelps or whines unless he is in real pain.  Poor boy. 

He is doing better now but it’s just his hind leg is still giving him the limp after each walk.  Right now the vet said no walk for him till this Thursday, but yesterday I caved in after seeing his sad eyes staring back at me.  Was a very short walk and yet he limps and hopped around on three legs after the walk.
