One thing this is certain: Addler would have died sooner or later. His bladder would have burst and that would have been lights out. This isn't a situation where I could have just sat around and said to myself: "he'll get better, just give him time".  No, time was his enemy.  I can't imagine how much better he must be feeling right about now.  Maybe he'll even start eating again.  

He was given numerous compliments at the first place last night.  One of the workers said: "Your dog is so beautiful. We get other danes in here that are heavy, but that is because they are fat. Addler is not fat at all". 

  At one point he started putting on weight - fat - so I put him on a diet.  He lost it and has never gained it back.  He's a bundle of muscle.  The size and weight of the dog dictate it needs some good muscles to enable it to be able to move around at all.  

It really hits me how hard this would have been to take if he would have passed. I come into my bedroom and there is no giant dog laying or sitting there. No big doggie waiting at the door to be let in.  

I just ran up to the store to get a bottle of Cumin for Taylor - she is making some sort of chili stuff in the crockpot for dinner - and it is stifling hot out there. I also found out just how drained I am of any energy. My plans yesterday before this situation with Addler came up was to get the water spigot installed and finish with the hot water line.  I've ordered the dual sewer outlet.  

Then tomorrow, get the trencher and get that done.  Then the next day, get the parts to install a panel and get the project done and over with.  Now? I don't know if I'm going to have time to do all of that before the day arrives I need it done for.

I may have to just risk it and have another ac unit on there.

Wait a minute.  I just remembered - my thoughts are all over the place right now - we had a second ac unit in the window of the shed while James was installing the drywall!  It was on for many, many days and the compressor rarely shut off.  That's the only real drain that New Jersey people's trailer has.  They are using a regular extension cord for that thing, it isn't on a 30 or 50 amp draw.  

So there it is. I've just taken the pressure off of me.  I can get a 15 foot strand of wire and another 20 amp heavy duty outlet, set it up back there and good for now.  Still want to switch out everything, maybe even put the water heater on a new circuit and just take some of the load off of the west side circuit.  

However....even taking the pressure off, there is still a couple day's worth of work back there.  But I can get it done - I think. I say that and then often times I get caught in some glitch/s and end up taking more time, energy and expense than originally anticipated.  I actually think I have an extra circuit breaker somewhere, just have to dig and find it.  Wire is the only real expense on that now, probably $45 worth. Circuit breakers are actually not that expensive and neither are the 20 amp outlets.  So maybe $60.  The outlet will be permanent regardless if I do an east side circuit setup - I have no power outside of the shed and I have needed it.  

Well I'm not going to stress over it. Try to get back to it tomorrow depending on what happens with Addler. I'm actually glad they're keeping him another night.  

Maybe I'll start feeling better later on and can at least go to Lowe's and get the parts I need to do the electrical job.  I have the parts for the spigot, the Y should be here today or tomorrow.  

I think I'll just shut the laundromat down during this upcoming day with 16 units pulling power and 9 of them on one side plus the shed.  After that I'm going to have some vacancies and less of a drain.  Just one day of a shut down - sorry folks, no laundry today. There is a laundromat about 2-1/2 miles away.  Or just wait until tomorrow.  

That's it. I'm going to try to take a nap again, I just got hit pretty good with fatigue.
