Nobody know the trouble I've seen.
We were supposed to go kayaking yesterday, and I was really looking forward to sharing all about adaptive kayaking; but I had Tummy Troubles all day. Not only that, but the skywater was falling fiercely and the wind was very blowy. That is no kind of weather for frequent, emergency potty breaks! I felt very distressed.
Despite my Tummy Troubles I was feeling the fear of starvation constantly. I used all my resources to convey to Chris that I needed additional rations STAT! I was informed by Chris that I needed a "Quiet Diet". I asked what a "Quiet Diet" was. Chris said it was sustenance that would quiet down my Tummy Trouble.
My liver ailment prevents me from eating rice, so Chris prepared me cous cous with a bit of salt and a bit of chicken broth. I was presented with one cup in my puzzle bowl. It took me forever to eat and I consumed so many calories eating it that I was highly concerned that I was closer to starvation than I was before! Like Oliver Twist, I asked for more gruel. Like Oliver Twist, I was denied.
Clatterpaw had been staring at me with her most judgy look the whole time. While she would never dare comment about my dire potty situation, she had no problem calling me "greedy" for requesting a smidgen more life-saving rations .
I hope today is better because my Labradar Mรณr self is in need of substantial sustenance!
Life is a circle. Love is a circle.
