I’m ornery like this. I wonder how long until @maxwell_victoria notices I played with her toys?

12 of 12, February 2016 edition

The 12 of 12 Challenge was created by Chad Darnell and picked up by a number of random bloggers who linked back to him and vice versa. Chad stopped doing the 12 of 12 Challenge in December 2011, but passed the torch to someone who [sadly] hasn’t been keeping up with it. I am giving my shout-out to Blobby of Blobby’s Blog as he is the one who initially inspired me to do the Challenge, and he still does.

This is my 50th “12 of 12.” A Friday. Who’d have thought I would have made it this far?

It’s been a long two weeks. Trying to keep the Husbear together, the businesses running, all the normal stuff around the house, and then just my schedule of tattooing appointments. So tired. Getting up with the Husbear every couple of hours through the night is taking it’s toll. As a result, I can’t say this was a great effort on my part today of getting pictures either.

10:17 AM: Just woke up from a couple hours of sleep after getting the Husbear up and ready. I haven't really slept at all since the Husbear's accident.

10:59 AM: I had to make a quick stop on the way to the studio at Sam's Club for some mop heads and backup gloves. It looked like a florist exploded all up in the Club.

Baker's Dozen: 9:57 PM: Having to feed and water the animals. Something the Husbear normally does, but since he's mostly immobile, I'm getting to do it. Only the ducks are still "awake" at this hour.

Husbear Update, Friday

I posted part of this on Facebook earlier today. Everything checked out at the doctor today. The Husbear’s right leg is still pretty swollen. And bruises are starting to manifest on both legs and a few other places.

He’s trying to be a little more mobile, getting himself around the house with the assistance of a quad base cane, albeit slowly. And quite uncomfortable looking to do, I might add. Today he also tried to not use the cane on occasion.

His right foot was a lot more puffy tonight. Cabbage Patch doll feet puffy. I don’t know if he had his leg up as much as he should have and that’s the result, or it’s just his body working it’s thing. We’ll see how that looks in the morning.

He says he’s so bored and going stir crazy. I have a feeling I’ll need to tie him down before this weekend is over. I told him if he was so bored he could watch “Doctor Who”. He said he wasn’t that bored. Humph!

Until next time...
