You all know by now how much I love my dogs. Probably too much.
We had someone come out today to pump our septic tank. They left the goddamn gate on the fence open. Vader had shut the gate on the deck so I had to go outside when I let the dogs outside so I could open it for them. SkyWalker wanted to see the horses and I didn't want to argue so luckily we did. The dogs are now filthy since they ran in the mud up and down the fence they share with the horses. As SkyWalker and I were walking back towards the house I noticed the fence gate wide open. WIDE open. With a little bungy cord keeping it from swinging shut. Luckily the dogs were so thrilled that we were outside with them that they never went towards it. I was able to shut it before they really noticed. But OMG. What could I do? If they ran what the hell could I do? I have a 2 1/2 year old in my arms and a baby in my womb, what the hell would I do?? Thank the FSM that Vader shut the deck gate forcing me to go outside and that SkyWalker wanted the horses. I am very tempted to have my husband call them and tell them what they did. And they just took the check without leaving a receipt, without leaving any paperwork. Thanks *redacted*. Thanks a lot.
The dogs are still outside since they are covered in mud. It's so nice out and they deserve to run around and I just don't care.
I had a bowl of bran flakes for dinner. SkyWalker, who needs the bran flakes, didn't eat anything. He's really having problems now. He's laying on the couch next to me and he stinks to high heaven but there is no poop. I hate when he gets this way. He'll be like this for a few days and then he won't stop pooping. There's no happy medium with this kid. Maybe I need to spike his milk with benefiber or metamucil to keep him regular. I've had to hold/carry him a lot since we got home and he just clings to me. I even tried to give him juice with dinner. Pooping should not be so difficult. They really need to come up with a better process.

What is the FSM? Is it the Flying Spaghetti Monster (http://www.venganza.org/)??? Teeheehee... Anyway... I think you should definitely call the septic tank people -- they should know better than to leave anything other than how they found it when they came, and they damn well better know to leave some sort of receipt... Bastards! As for Skywalker's pooping problems... I would give him Citrucel in his milk... They have a kind that is colorless and flavorless, or you could entice him with a chocolate "shake"... Either way, I think it can't hurt to try it... Hope your night gets better instead of worse...
Yes, Flying Spaghetti Monster. After a very difficult evening we wound up giving him a suppository before bed. Luckily he woke up at 12:30 with a big poop. (Otherwise he would have been up ALL night complaining about having to poop. We'll take the 12:30 wake up). He eats vegetables and fruits and whole grains and fiber. I don't see any difference in his diet when he has these problems. I think it's probably just because he's MY son. But I will look into that citrucel... suppositories suck.
my doctor gave us this stuff as a sample (i'll look it up next time i'm downstairs) -- clear, dissolves in anything, no taste, boy actually liked it. bananas and apple juice is supposed to help. as for me, i'm on colate, since i'm also on ferrous sulfate (fun!).
