Spoiled, Edict

Last night after work I started leading Elsa around the yard for our walk.  After our second lap she went to the door and didn’t want to do the third lap.  I called her over, nicely at first and when she refused not so nicely using my authoritative voice.  Still she would not follow me.  Without a doubt Elsa is spoiled and heeding commands is clearly optional in her mind.  I was not going to allow her to win this battle however.  I made her stay at the door while I grabbed the leash.  Once I loosely draped the leash around her neck she followed me around the yard without issue.  Her personality traits can be very complex to navigate at times but she is my shining light in my day to day existence regardless.

Today I have my follow up appointment with the cardiologist where we will go over the results of my three tests.  I am really hoping for some positive news.  I have no desire to continue down the medical procedure black hole I have been on since March.
