Well actually it started yesterday. Pocket has had to go into the vets again, and get his little tiny hiney lanced yet again. The problem is with his anal gland, its an icky thing, and I really don't want to go into full detail only to say that, it starts like a pimple, and when you see dogs rubbin their butt on the carpet or couch or whatever they choose to rub it on, is so they can pop this pimple, if they don't have any of these things to do this with, or don't know how, then it gets infected and they have to go to the vet and have it expressed. Poor Pocket, thing is, his goes from me not being able to see anything to big infection in just a matter of hours.
This morning, I noticed when I kissed his little head that he was running a temp. Mandy told me I was crazy that I wasnt able to judge his temp by kissing his head.
I took him to the vet, sure enough he had a temp of 104.
Hmmmmmm, looks like I can cant I?
Anyways, he is at the hospital right now, its 1:30am, pouring down rain, and I miss my baby dog. And I worry about him too.
But, he will be home tomorrow, and I am planning a good ass chewing also. When I had him neutered one of the reasons for doing so was so that they could fix this problem and it wouldn't happen again. Seems someone dropped the ball somewhere there. No pun on the ball thing intended.  
And now.
Today my Noodle should have been celebrating his 63rd birthday. He almost made it too. Just 10 days shy of it. Not sure how much celebrating would have been going on with him being so sick, but still.
And I have one last thing to do for him in the very near future.
My step-mom will be sending me his ashes so that I may spread them in a little town that he grew up in.
He may not have been there for me when I was growing up, heck in all truthfulness he wasnt ever really there for me. I just feel the need to do this for him, after all, if it weren't for his contribution of sperm, which is why I called him my sperm donor for years, I wouldn't be here.
So, in about a week or two or three, I will be doing this one final thing for him.
My step-mom sent me 2 packages of his things, and some of the fathers day presents that I had gotten for him to me. I am not really looking forward to this. Not really. Mom told me that I didn't have to open them right away. But I know how I am too, I will open them as soon as I get them. Then I will have a good long cry.
Moms doing ok. You know how these things are. She has her good days, and her bad ones.
Well, I'm tired. Still having so much fun with this cold. I think everyone is sort of enjoying me not being able to really talk. LOL Just wait till I get my voice back, I'm gonna talk someones ear plumb off!
Hugs everyone.

How is pocket, we need another update. When you have your good cry, remember we're thinking of you. Finding peace in closure is always a good thing--crying your way there is sometimes the best thing to do. :) peace to you and yours.
