Well, she had a pretty good poop this morning and another little one about 15 mins ago. Her pee is normal. She walks about 3 or 4 steps every time and stops to reach for her booty.

When I rubbed the mineral oil on her butt, I noticed it felt like she had some swelling/puffy area there. I would call it a hemaroid but from reading everything here on YT and the advice above, I believe her anal glands are swollen. I'm taking her to the vet as soon as they open in the morning to see. She is obviously very uncomfortable. After she pooped this last time she immediately sat back on one of her hips and held the opposite leg up off the ground.

To answer the pain med question above. She is on Rimadyl. They gave her a dosage of 1/2 tablet 1 time a day.
