Funny how me dogs know something is not right with me, and I'm in pain and struggling.
They normally walk a few hours a day with me, and are full of beans, charging around like lunatics.
They are on very short walks at the moment. Then just want to curl up with me on the sofa all day... Dexter insists on being closest.
Bless them, very empathic.

Just looked her up... ouch! You picked the right saint! She had it worse than any of us... the stuff of nightmares 😰 Hopefully, with her intercession and the antibiotics, the pain, and gum and facial swelling will subside in the next 24 hours, and I won't be trekking to the hospital at 6:30 AM tomorrow morning, fretting about what they'll do to me. You probably know from your migraines, it's so bad, it's near impossible to think or focus on anything else at all. Yes, it is near impossible to think or focus on anything else. I can't do much of anything but stay home, keep the critters and myself fed - I've found a vegan liquid protein supplement that doesn't exacerbate the nausea that goes with migraine - and rest in a dark and quiet room, with my ever-attentive and faithful kitty that curls up with me.

Born in Circa 291 AD to a Roman family. Became a Christian early in life. Said to be very beautiful, had many suitors. Turned them all down, said Christ was her spouse. Grassed up to the authorities age 13 for being a Christian. Condemned and forced in to a brothel. She was so steadfast no man could touch her. Condemned to public execution in a stadium. They tried to burn her, but the flames wouldn't touch her, so in one account she was beheaded, in another, stabbed through the throat. She is said to have gone to her execution more cheerfully than most people go to a wedding. Patron saint of girls, young women, and rape survivors. Ladies and gentlemen, St Agnes of Rome... This is from a few years ago, but, it is an annual tradition, that takes place in Rome every year on the Feast of St. Agnes (January 21).
