Mother's Day

I've had quite the busy weekend. Pokey had stomach pains Wednesday or Thursday. He was shaking and his short little hairs were standing on end. I took him in to work the next morning (after a long, sleepless night) and we did one quick xray on him. He looked a little constipated, but nothing too severe. I took him home and fed him some canned food that night and the next morning. He still wanted to eat, so I knew it wasn't anything critical. We re-xrayed him on the opposite side and say here was severely backed up! We had to give him an enema. Although it worked great, he now has blood for poop 2 days afterwards. I was almost going to go with Johny to his mom's house for mother's day, but I'm glad I stayed. He would have either pooped in his cage, or on the carpet or held that grossness in for 5 hours!
On top of all this, we went out Friday night for Ashley and Tino's bdays. I'm so old. I was exhausted at 9:30pm.
THEN, we went to Weinerfest in Fairmount Park for a few hours in the baking sun. Although it was fun, it was still tiring and I was worried about Pokey. I was keeping an eye on him via the ChiCam though.
I found a new yarnbombing buddy! She joined the SnB recently and when spotting the same yarnbomb as I did in Riverside/Moreno valley, she emailed me asking if it was me! We decided to collaborate and do a project soon.

So, I've got a couple of hours before I head to my mom's house. What should I do until then? Sleep? Crochet? Eat? Clean? Ha!!
