So I have a unique situation - I creeped on a former employer’s google reviews, and one of them said that their child was endangered because they were constantly being offered food with peanuts (severely allergic). As someone who dealt with this issue while I was employed with them, I was horrified. I told them that…

Yes, but because they are so supportive and understanding it’s a positive impact. This is the first real, adult job where I’ve felt both valued, supported, appreciated, etc. Literally every other position I’ve held before this (I’ve been working for close to ten years at this point I think) drove me to the brink and…

Watch What Crappens (WWC) if you like Bravo shows, recaps, impersonations and guest appearances. I really, truly love it and it has made some work days go by relatively quickly.

Yeah, after telling a friend she actually advised we go directly to the shelters. When we adopt next time we will do that.

he’s so good looking, I hope you enjoyed it!

No to your final question, and I think that shelters/rescue orgs. all over are becoming that way to be honest. The only place I really enjoyed seemed to be a southern one when I was going to adopt two pups long-distance and my mother (I was living at home at the time) didn’t approve. That was one of the main reasons I…

That’s really sweet of you to advocate for your friends. Yeah, we went through that too and it was heartbreaking each time - reaching out and asking friends, having them call, and then letting them know we hadn’t been chosen. I honestly think these organizations are just drunk on power or something, and can’t wait…

those all sound wonderful, thanks again for the recs.

cake sounds delicious. I hope the mini fridge works for you!

ooooh useful! cleaning is such a great activity, even though I rarely have the patience for it.

I saw The Good Place in my recommended shows so I am considering checking it out. Thanks for the other recs - Crazyhead, I’ve never heard about before. Might be worth it.

Yeah that ship has long since sailed for me. Wish I felt like that about the show but it just killed it with this most recent season.

oh no, but that’s so wonderful you gave a good dog a home!

Ooof yes it’s really bad here. We’ve been mainlining the AC all day because it’s so awful, and trying to do cooler foods for the most part. I love OPI - that is my go-to brand for sure. Even though it’s a somewhat boring color, I hope you enjoy it!

GoT and I have had several vicious breakups. Ask any of my close friends. That show is poison for me but I couldn’t put it down until the end of Season 7. UGH.

Wait, you know for sure that your dog sees ghosts? I will need stories if you don’t mind. And all of them are gorgeous - bless you for rescuing! I love the last one because she looks like she’s part Lab and that breed will forever have my heart. As soon as we get a permanent residence, we’re opening our home to…

Yeah thanks, I didn’t think you were being contrary. I have such an issue with so-called rescue agencies it isn’t even funny. I had a Chocolate Lab growing up (I miss her dearly) and so my mom was able to stay home with her, but my parents situation was a bit strange. Right now our two guys make due with our crates…

I love your horse! I am so in love with animals it’s pathetic. That’s why I had to stop watching Game of Thrones to be honest.

Mindy mentioned him in an episode of her show and I googled him - he is great eye candy, that’s for sure. I am intrigued, but really don’t feel like doing dark and hard right now. I need fantasy, comedy, and/or fluff. I just started Season 6 of Once (which I’d marathoned awhile ago and then dropped because it became…

UGH, I’m SO JEALOUS that you bought a saddle. The ranch where I was riding before is an hour away, so it was a 3+ hour commitment for lessons, which proved to be too demanding for this summer. I am hoping to pick it back up in the fall though. I would love to see pics of your horse if you have any, I love them so…
