Bella's walking again

I'm blogging about one of my pigs today. Ok...I admit it is a slow day, but that is ok. Sometimes you need a slow day. This morning after church and the usual mexican food lunch, I hurried and changed clothes to check on Bella. Yes, she is a pig and I had to check on her. If you remember, she had some problems in Ft. Worth. Well...after reading many message boards and researching pig stress, I thought I would try something as natural as I could. She was very stiff in her hind legs so I thought about giving her pickle juice, it works on humans when they have leg cramps. As crazy as it sounds it is even crazier to watch me give her pickle juice. She was not too keen on this at first, but now she likes the taste. Eveidently, there is some magic in the juice. This afternoon, she is able to bend her leg, which is excellent news. This means she might be ready for Houston. There is no way she would be ready for San Antonio, but maybe Houton. I am really hoping since Madison got a new pink pig stick.

That's good news! Hopefully Madison will not only get to show her in Houston, but also come home with a ribbon :)

I am glad Bella is better, I am coming you'lls way tomorrow. I am taking Dilla to a specialist in Sulphur Springs for her nasal issue and going to be up your way. What is a pink pig stick?
