     I canceled everything for today, figuring I would need time to recover from the five extractions I had yesterday—nothing of the sort. I felt just fine. Elsa had an appointment with Petco for a grooming. I had asked Scott if he could take her down. I felt good enough to go myself. It would be less stressful for Elsa if I took her than if Scott did.

   Our appointment at Petco was at 9 a.m. We got there early. The store didn't open until 9. We walked up and down the strip mall sidewalk so I could get my steps in. Good thing. Elsa had an attack of diarrhea. I could pick up some of it, but some was just liquid with a little bit. When we headed back toward the store, Elsa tried to pull me back to the car. No, this was not one of her favorite activities.

   When I dropped her off, I asked for something to wipe up the poop on the sidewalk. The groomer gave me a clean cloth. I asked for a paper towel. She said this is what they used to clean up messes in the store. Okay. It worked.

  I stopped at Target to pick up a microphone I could plug into my computer. I wanted to see if adolescent D had trouble hearing any sound when I made the /s/ sound with this improvement to the sound system. I had tried making the sounds with other students, and they had no problems. Not only could they identify the word, but they also identified the individual speech sounds.

  When I picked Elsa up a few hours later, she was delighted to see me. She leaped into my arms and wrapped herself around my neck.

   On my Hanai sister Jean's advice, I started watching In the Dark on Netflix. I liked it. I like the main character, Murphy, a tough, blind lady, was fun to watch. I like a touch of snarky. I'm not comfortable with those movies where every character is a wise guy.
