Rodale visit, but later scary thunderstorms....

Yesterday was an ok day. The morning started out good. After we all had breakfast, mom, dad and I went for a ride. They went into a building, and I could see them through the window. They wanted me to come in, but I didn't want to get out of the car. Then we went to see my friends at Rodale. Thank you, Heather, for having peppers for me again. You're swell! When we got back, mom and dad went away by themselves, but they told me they would be back for lunch. After lunch, mom was gone in the afternoon, and I was in the basement with dad while he worked. Then thunderstorms came. I don't like them. I was uneasy then. After dinner, mom and dad had to go away again. They're leaving me alone more than they were. I don't like being alone. I like to be with people. When they came back, my hips hurt, and it hurt when I walked. Mom was worried. She told dad I was walking funny. Dad said maybe I was stiff. Then they kept trying to get me to walk, and it did start to feel better.

This morning dad had to coax me to eat breakfast until we got to the good stuff in the can. My face is swollen again. I have had some pretty good days, so I have to expect that they won't all be good.

Have a good weekend, everyone.

Love,
Casey
