4:00am Success
Knowing 4:00am would come quickly, bedtime came early. By 9:45pm we were out. Around 12:30am Emma started barking like crazy. She was told to quit but just couldn't seem to control herself enough to stop. We soon figured out why, girl noises, laughing and giggling were coming from the puppy stall. Mark is not very friendly at this time of the night, he opens the door and yells " who is there!" when one of the nieces answers the next thing out of his mouth is "you can't be here." no polite, " hey girls could you hold it down," nope. I will have to explain to them today, he doesn't react well after midnight, I think it is called werewolf syndrome and there wasn't even a full moon. This 4:00am medicine giving wasn't as bad as last night. Didn't even stick myself one time. The colt didn't want to get up, after all it was night time and he was tired and how come we weird humans couldn't figure that out? He looks and acts better sure hope he is on the mend. Only 6 more times of flushing, meds, then flushing again, each time hitting the small little area of the port with a very sharp needle...and the countdown begins.

Judy, No way you should have to apologize for Mark's reprimand last night...we shouldn't have woken you up at that hour. Besides, it was no big deal, I couldn't understand what he was saying anyway. Sorry for being noisy :)
