As you probably noticed I haven’t posted for a while, sorry about that. I have been very involved in the web design of our on-line design boutique the Mod Bohemian. I should say web design has become all-consuming. Being picky can make things take longer. I am posting about something that happened to me while I was being over taken by HTML. Which is not exactly a fun thing. One day as I was taking a break from the computer screen, I saw a little creature in my yard. A teeny tiny little thing struggling to even stand up. I went to investigate and what I found was a little baby squirrel. My husband had told me that there was a little baby animal in our yard and he thought the Mom would come back for it. He had built a stick tepee to shelter it. The Mom hadn’t come back and the poor thing was on his last leg. I didn’t know what to do to help this little squirrel . So, I went and got a lid with water in it and a piece of apple and a chip. Not really what a baby squirrel eats, I found out. So I did research on the web and found out what to do and got him warm, and fed him pedialyte with a syringe and tried to help the little guy. 
I called him Bushy the squirrel.
When he was rehydrated we feed him puppy milk from the pet store.
He has a shelter box the Boy Scouts built and will be released when he is ready. I call and check on his progress and he is doing good.
So there you have it. I rescued this little squirrel, but he rescued me from being stuck in front of a computer monitor.
Helping something in need is ‘a good thing’ as Martha Stewart says.
