The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
You may not believe this is alanon related but it is. Because of alanon I can remind myself one day at a time, the serenity prayer and more. The service I give to my animal sanctuary is all about my hp. I could not do what i do with out the support of hp.
So in saying that, this is a piece of my life...the down and dirty lol
Having old pigs is so scary. It is the a.m. I hear the pigs in the stall in the next room griping. They always do that. I cover them at night with blankets, if one moves they all freak. It is cold here in Oregon. Well this one kept hollering and hollering, sounded wrong.crap.
I went in and Arniepig had bobpiog squished against the wall, and he was mad. So I helped bob out. Here I am in my boxer shorts and tank top and my big blue cotton robe, pulling on this close to two hundred pound pig, who is stuck between the wall and a two hundred and fifty pound pig.And the big pig thought i was there to rub his belly so he turns and squishes bog and I. yikes.
get bob out and......
Then I see Junie does not look right. She is fumbling aroung on her side. She is a very little pig. I watched her, and she kept flopping down. When I righted her, her bum seemed swollen.
I sorta carried her into the house, wishing I had ear plugs...Put her on a blanket, heat going on her .But she was not right. She has, in all her nine years here, not been touchable.But when I touched her bum she liked it?????? So i got out a biggish syringe, carefully, slowly put some warm soapy water up her bum....VALAA....all these very hard as rock poots, come out.crap. well yea crap hahahahha potted pigs tend to get blocked up as pets in the USA. In the wild they are opportunistic eaters. Eating plants,worms, whatever. So they get enough rouphage and hydration.
Anyway, she just rollled over,stretched out in relief.
The buggers are not drinking enough water.So back to mixing their feed in waterin big buckets, then to bowls....that is very ok
I have her on blankets,in front of a heater that was on ME. I just get to sleep....all happy on my feather bed, feather comforter,and feather pillows...and lest we forget, my warm Basset hot water bottle,Tavish.
OH BOY!!! heard a pooty fart. Got bowel sounds!!!! whew...laying in bed here, happy to hear pig farts. NO wonder I don't havea boyfriend...
LOL! That was a wonderful story! No pigs here, but 6 dogs, 7 cats, and 3 rats. I am often gassed out in bed at night by the elderly lab mix. Pooty farts at night don't lend to having a boyfriend, but I'm okay with that! :)

It would take a mighty amazing bed fellow to brave your bed with all THAT going on.
Great, great share. Keep on doing it, you are a breath of fresh air...........hm........perhaps that is an unfortunate choice of words. Lol lol howl te he scream ha ha tears rollin' down my cheeks and sides aching.
Well, you certainly know how to get my endorphines going and at this rate I should kick this infection into touch within the hour.
Good night, sleep well.

I look back and laugh, but at the time.... like when thousand pound red Pixie pig ran up behind me, stuck her snouter in my crotch from the back, and tossed me into the blackberry brambles head first....omg. lol lol
On our pig lists, someone potted pig gets sick, pigs are notorious for blocked colons. It is serious. So we are all, feed it pumking!!Give her a light enema...then we are all waiting for the post that says,"WE HAVE BERRIES!! We all are happy then and back to normal.ahahaha
Alanon is about us and our lives. It is very ok to laugh and share.
