Eli, Part IV, Liver-Hold the Onions

Shooting my dog up with Humulin twice a day was a lot easier than I thought it would be.  Each morning when I took him outside, I had to hold a test strip in his urine stream to test his sugar.  From there, I would calculate the proper dosage to give him and we'd be good until that evening.  Twice a day, every day.  It got to be so routine that Eli would notice me filling a syringe, walk over to me and stretch out his neck so I could give him the needle.  Okay, it's probably because I gave him special treat after every injection.

The Jubilee Festival in Daphne, Alabama

My Fall show season started with a sweet show in Daphne, Alabama called the Jubilee Festival.  Taken from the show's website, "The festival celebrates the fine arts culture of our area and one of the few places in the world to experience the natural phenomenon of a jubilee.  A jubilee occurs when oxygen levels in the water are diminished causing fish, shrimp, crab and other seafood to come to the surface in abundance."
