Of Literature and Dogs

That’s the title of the article Silje is reading in the magazine that came in the mail today.

It’s the magazine sent to alumni of a college that Aunt Rondi went to that mistakenly came to our house.

This are a little different today. Knut got an infection in his leg last week. It was bothering him so much yesterday and he was feeling a bit warm. So he went into the clinic. He got a shot, and an obscene amount of antibiotics, and was told to keep his leg raised with a warm compress for the rest of the week.

Just in case you were wondering, Knut doesn’t sit down very well. Especially when there are things to be done before harvest. But he’s being a trooper. I’ll be shocked if I can keep him in that chair or in on the couch for the rest of the week, but I’ll try! He’s set up with books and movies, and I’m determined to keep him employed. He fed Elias his bottle this morning, and I think I might have him peel apples for me this afternoon. He can do that with his leg in the air, right?

He does get up every once an awhile to stretch. But even making himself some eggs for breakfast made his leg really sore and his was anxious to sit down.


And Silje is enthralled to be reading to him out of the newest magazine in the house. She’s just reading article after article as he is chuckling that she can actually do it!
