5 years ago this was a robo-call service. app is probably much cheaper. the robo-call service called house phone in a radius where your animal is lost. cost a fortune though.

Microchips won’t help you LOCATE your dog though. That’s a common misconception.

My brother was watching my dog in Detroit, about an hour from our home, and he ran away. So he was in a city foreign to him...He was gone for NINE days. He crossed the highway TWICE. It cost $400 between trips there looking for him, newspaper ads, robocalls and flyering. We went to soooo many shelters. He kept getting…

It’d take quite a job to convince me to leave freelancing. QUITE a job.

what you need to know about taxes when you're self employed:

Also, your workspace doesn't have be a separate room but does need to be "separately identifiable"—a distinct area used just for work. If you work with your laptop on the dining room table, that won't cut it. (Protip: Take photos of your workspace or office in case of an audit.)

Bitchy story: Chicago Ohare has some kind of quicker line with machines versus people for citizen/residents.

There's some kind of rules similar to ^ but I THINK it's a large $$ amount (and I think that because I've never reached it).
