The Bill Is How Much?!?

CJ is now home from the doggie dentist. She had to have both lower canines extracted, and the one that was broken to begin with was abscessed. (The other was misshapen and unstable; the dentist said it would either break off or break her jaw in the near future.) The bill so far is $1,680.00. Also known as six weeks' take-home pay. Right before car insurance is due. There will be no Christmas around here, other than what I picked up early in the year. Or much of anything else.
