We started the day at the vet (oh joy). Overnight Lucy had licked her left foot (the swollen one) enough to cause it to start bleeding. The two sores on the right leg looked worse, too. The vet really didn't have any idea what was wrong. He took a culture, but it will take some time to complete. He also took xrays to see if the bones were involved (they're not).
So $400 later we left with a prescription and a cone of shame. Lucy really doesn't like the cone. She keeps running into things and stopping because she thought she'd done something wrong.
After the vet we went estate sailing. I liked the places. They were full of old stuff, not worth much but cool. Both places had tools. I picked up a socket wrench and a Craftsman circular saw. I also got a battery powered scissors as a joke item ($1).
After the two sales we went back to the Walgren's on Slaughter to leave off the prescription. Then we went to Tomlinson's for a collar for the cone of shame. We also got some dog treats because I really felt sorry for Lucy. Then it was lunch at the Italian place and then back to Walgren's to pick up the pills.
After that we went home. It was 90 degrees and almost 4, so we just surfed for the rest of the day.
