Rough Week.

Okay, so I'm sure everyone has heard about this awful week. I'm not going to post too much because typing still hurts my hands a little, but on Tuesday, Scout was attacked by a pit bull in our neighborhood. I tried to break it up, got bit, and only by the grace of God did a sweet lady named Debi who drives a little orange VW Bug stop to help. She left her door open and Scout, as soon as he got the chance, jumped in her car and we were able to save him. I'm convinced he would not have made it had she not stopped. Two other men stopped to help, one had a weiner dog and was just trying to help kick this pit bull, but the dog was seriously pure evil. Another guy called 911. The good news is that it looks like Scout will make a full recovery (and will hopefully get to keep his tail!) and my hands are not broken, just incredibly sore and bruised. Looking back, there are a lot of "Thank you Lord"s. Like, I laid on top of the pit bull 3 times trying to get him off of Scout.. he could have easily turned on me. And, Debi is a Thank You Lord. She is so sweet and has called and stopped by to check on Scout and bring by flowers and a box of doggie treats. :) Thanks so much to everyone who has brought over the yummy treats (my thighs thank you, at least) and has sent encouraging and loving e-mails, texts, notes, and prayers. Don't forget, from now on, walk with mace!! Seriously! Oh, and you'll be glad to know the pit bull is no more. We keep telling Scout that he is the champ, but I think his chewed up body is telling him otherwise. :(
