Shitty week turns into shitty weekend

I have not posted is a while because we have been sooo busy lately, and we are still busy so this is just a quick update.
Our bulldog did indeed have parvo....but that was just the tip of the iceburg...it seems that she also has red mange, degenerative hip failure, and that thing that we had operated on last July (her third eyelid) is also inflamed again and has to be operated on again as well....these three things are genetic defects that she inherited from one of her parents and she will pass them on to any pups she has as well.......so for those reasons our vet informed us that she needs to be spayed.......freakin great...so it looks like we have the most expensive pet ever, on top of the $400 dollar vet bill now.
Sunday morning hubby decided to go down and push mow our pasture...after about 15 minutes I hear the door open and he comes in and tells me we need to go to the hospital...it seems he tripped and fell and the mower rolled back on his foot and cut the end of his shoe off...so we race to the hospital and get 16 stitches is his big toe....so he is now an invalid limping around the house...my poor baby...at least they were able to save his toe though.
All of this on top of working 12 hr days for the last 5 weeks...on the bright side though, at least all of our taxes are now paid and we will have the money to pay the large vet bill and hopefully get square on some other things before our overtime stops....ohh well. Better days have got to be coming...........someday.
