Still in refinance hell. See, for shady (but completely legal) tax purposes, the owner of the band my husband plays in has each of the band and crew set up with a very small ownership percentage. The company actually has no assets, they just each get paid their gig fees (some make more than others), but he put this on a K-1.
The refi company wants to see the paperwork for the company. This has been refused. So we may not be refinancing after all.

So sorry, O4. Maybe try another bank?

Well, I started a loaf of bread for women's group tomorrow. I'm bringing two loaves of bread and some jelly. I washed the fruit for the next batch of marmalade. I'm going to start cutting it in a bit and DH will help when he gets home from fishing.

I'd say if he doesn't perk up by tomorrow it's time to call the vet. He may have some sort of infection.
Is he eating okay, Tig? How about his poo. Normal or runny?
If he's off his feed, or his poo isn't normal, for sure get him in for a check up tomorrow.
JMHO. I'm not an expert. But, if Jupiter wasn't acting normally, that's what I would do.
He's not eating very much. Just a few kibbles here or there. His poop seems fine, though. At least it was yesterday. Although he wouldn't go out forever as soon as I took him out and put him on the grass he went right away.
He's generally a hardcore walker, but yesterday we did about 10 blocks around the city and he was fading halfway through. And this is a small dog who can go for hours. He hasn't been out yet today - he didn't want to go when I tried earlier. And I think he cried in his sleep.

Something is definitely going on with him. Poor doggy. Better get him checked out. I hope it is something simple that a round of antibiotics will take care of.
So, I called the vet that my friend loves, and they couldn't get me in until Wednesday. They suggested that I might not want to wait that long. So I've got him an appointment this afternoon at a different place that has good reviews on Yelp. I'm going to try to take him for a walk right now to see if he perks up at all.....
I'm sorry Tig. Is there an emergency vet there? We took Carlee to one and they were great.

Good luck Tig. I hate it when my pets are sick & I don't know what to do to help them.
I'm holding a good thought for him, Tig. I really hope he'll be okay. Keep us posted.
And, the update on my sister wasn't good. I'm going to start a thread in the break room, for those who are following along. I don't want the daily to become a downer.

How can an owner, ie G, be refused paperwork from a company he has ownership of?

Pooch is running a fever and the vet doesn't know why. She poked and prodded and found nothing inflamed, but potentially found some sort of mass where his scrotum would be - if he had a scrotum . . .
Thinks most likely he has a bladder or kidney infection, maybe urinary tract. Did blood and urine screens and we'll have results tomorrow. Also did an aspiration of the suspected mass to see if it might be infection-causing. We'll know more tomorrow. The vet was really great.

Poor pooch! Did she give him any medicine? Or, is she waiting for the test results before prescribing something?

That's what I'm trying to relay to the ownership without stepping on toes. I mean, if you want to set up your employees then you need to be prepared to disclose your financials.

Poor baby! That aspiration had to hurt. Sending him some comfort, if only virtual.
He's got that second picture going on already! He's nestled up on the bed with one of my pillows. He's eaten a couple of kibbles and had some of the water I put broth in.
No meds right now, as the vet said she wasn't sure what she was medicating! We'll wait till the results come in tomorrow to see....
Glad you all suggested that the vet was more important right now than what I was thinking. It was because of all your expertise that I called and took him in. I wasn't sure if it was a thing or if he was just tired. If he's uncomfortable or in pain I want it dealt with! And yes . . . that aspiration looked really painful. He's got a puncture wound where his testicles would have been and the whole area is red and swollen :(

Tig, if you have an ice pack, wrap it in a towel, and hold it on the swelling for a little bit. (If he'll let you.) A few minutes on, a few minutes off.
It would help dull the pain, and take down the swelling.
(If he doesn't like it, don't force the issue. Some dogs will go with it, some won't. If he doesn't mind it, it would help.)
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr. DH is supposed to be cutting my fruit for marmalade. He is eating more of it than is going in the pan.

I don't care for marmalade too much. It's ok if I don't get the skin in my mouth.
Tell you what I do love. Peach preserves. Oh my goodness that stuff is heaven to me.
I love to mix it with a little cream cheese and have it on just about anything. I can eat that stuff by the spoon full right out of the jar.
Can you make peach preserves? Soooo yummmmmyyyy.........
