hi readers,
my sincere apologies for not blogging since august, but i have been and still dealing with the severe pain that goes with occipital neuralgia. okay, let's see, where do i begin?? first of all, i am not longer having physiotherapy because the pain afterwards was so unbearable and i just couldn't put myself through that anymore!!! secondly, i have been put on a new medication called gamapentin and so far it is helping a little bit by taking the bare edge off which is better than nothing. i am still able to get out for a walk which is helping me to stay in shape.
10 days ago, my daughter accidently let her hamster out and couldn't find her. we checked all over the house and there was no sign of her. since it was my daughter's birthday, we took her to the pet store and bought her a new one and everything was fine..... we accepted the fact that hammy the hamster was gone and that we may never find her... ya right!!! later that night, my husband was watching t.v. and all of a sudden our cat, garfield saw something moving behind the toy bin, and guess what??? there was hammy the hamster!!!!! she came back!!! don't get me wrong, we were glad that we found her, but because we now had 3 hamsters and only 2 cages we had no choice to put hammy in the cage with charlie(who we thought was a girl) for the last 7 months, only to discover that charlie in fact was really a boy!!!!
so, to make a long story short, seconds after we put hammy in the cage with charlie, he was all over her and... well...... we are pretty sure that they made whoopie and that hammy might be expecting a visit from the stork!!! are we happy??? not bloody likely!!!!! i googled hamster pregnancies to find out all that i could so i could begin my hamster watch. from what i read, they are pregnant for 21 days and to separate the male and female because the males eat the babies so 2 days ago, we bought another cage and put hammy in there by herself. so far, i haven't seen any changes in hammy but a friend told me that we wouldn't know anything until she had them. okay, i bet that you are laughing at this new story, laugh it up and how many will i put you down for just in case she is pregnant??? whose laughing now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyways, i must go back on hamster watch and i will keep you updated on any new developments. chat later.
