Intrepid is ALMOST home!

Well we made it! Beginning to question it there for a while! Mom has basically been sick since the first part of October. The doc finally put her on a strong antibiotic for 10 days and that seems to be working.

I, also have been fighting allergies. I got over the bad sinus infection but still struggle on some days with sinus headaches, scratchy throat, etc. But, here it is, Sunday night, the night before going to training camp with Intrepid at Texas Hearing and Service Dogs!

It's cold down here in Texas. Of course it has been beautiful weather until the week I have to go out in it! Tonight the low is 35. Out in Dripping Springs at the training center it will feel colder, they are kind of in the country a bit and on a hill.

I worked Black Friday and that was rough, my throat was killing me, but I made it through it. Worked until 1am and then got up early to go to Llano for our Thanksgiving with family. Then spent the rest of the evening that night here at home with my brother, sister-in-law, and my nephew.

Today I have just been relaxing, and about to go to bed in preparation for the big day, and coming week. We will be leaving here about 9am and staying all day.

Intrepid will officially be moving in on Monday, December 5, which is the following Monday after training. Man, I wished he could move in over the weekend so I could spend some quality time before going back to work on Monday. But it just wasn't possible for anyone to bring him and do the first day of the 16-week in-home training (just one day a week). It's gonna kill me to have him sitting here and working and not be able to interact with him as much. But, I am just glad I will be at home and don't work in the office. That would be WORSE! LOL!

Anyway, I will try to post after he has moved in, and/or the weekend after training. I can't believe the day is finally here to get another service dog. :)
