So, this weekend kinda sucked, but was also good.  Friday started rough,
as I wasn't even on call, but got looped in to fix a issue, which was bad,
because I was already 3 drinks in lol.

But, it got worse.  Went to bed, checked on ferrets, water/food/etc since
I had not gotten them out of their cage today because I was working.
Found our one ferret unresponsive.  He did this before, and we found it
was insulinoma.  We've had it under control with diet, and sparking him
back with some sweet water on his gums, then some food.

The sugar water didn't work, and I was up every 2 hours to check, and try
to give more sweet water.  Finally, at 6:30AM, I crashed.

He seemed to be perking up a little, but he wouldn't take any food.  We
had to go shopping, and were only gone for a couple of hours, but came
back home, and he was convulsing, and shrieking.  Found him wedged in the
corner of the playpen, and bleeding from his mouth. Don't know if he was
spitting blood, or bit hit tongue, or what.

We made the call to have him euthanized.  30 minutes later, he was gone.

Yesterday, we buried him.  Couldn't bring myself to do it Saturday, as I
was sapped.

But, also got the yard cleaned up, and ready to start getting the garden
planted.  The wife put it a great way:  It was a whole "circle of life"
weekend.
