I had hoped to take a short ride on Apollo this morning, but despite a weather forecast declaring clear skies until next Monday, clouds built up and rain came down, so that obviously didn’t happen! We have a dialysate supply delivery today, so I thought if he came early enough I might still get a ride in if the rain went away, but neither of those things happened. I had already sorted out the back of the trailer for the delivery, so when the truck arrived, we got everything loaded in with no problem. But of course, more rain came in, so a ride was out of the question. Flash is still favoring his hind leg a lot, but the heat is mostly out of it, the swelling seems to have come down, and the raw skin has almost completely healed over, though I’m still treating it regularly, so hopefully he recover in short order. So in the end, we had a fairly relaxing day, though I did bathe Lola, washed all of her bedding and insect-bombed the truck, because she’s still carrying around fleas she picked up long ago. Hard to break the cycle once things get going! Did some house work as well, very productive, yet somehow relaxing day! I guess any pace slower than clearing out a house seems like a break these days! Fingers crossed I’ll be able to ride tomorrow!
