She ain't snakebit

My grandmother used to use the word "snakebit" to indicate a string of bad luck, as in "his crops failed, his cows died, and he's havin' another young'un -- he's shore snakebit!"

Well, thankfully, Arrie Beth is not snakebit -- literally or figuratively. After soaking her foot in water and applying several rounds of hydrogen peroxide, she was much better. The swelling was down significantly Monday morning.  Monday evening, she perked up and walked around a bit. This morning, she went with us on our whole walk! She appears to be gaining strength every minute!

Maybe we should change her name to Wonder Woman.  I don't think Wonder Woman was snakebit either.
