I guarantee that at least 85% of this country never heard of the word “dotard”prior to Kim Jong Un using it. Threat of nuclear annihilation aside, he’s done more to advance the education of America than Betsy DeVos could ever hope to do.

This week we hired the adoption attorney to finally begin the process of adopting my daughter back from my parents. They adopted her when I was in active addiction and for a long time they acted like they were never going to allow me to have her back. It was frustrating but I respected it because they were there for…

I just got promoted to full-time! Extra vacation time, here I come!

So here’s something I SHOULD be happy about instead I’m bummed. Today I did my gym’s DRI-TRI - a 2000M row, 300 body weight exercises and then a 5K run. I’ve been working out there regularly for 7 months and wanted to see my progress. Well, I of course was the fattest one there and also the last one to finish. I was…

I am about to lay the flooring in my front room- BY MYSELF. I pulled all the carpet last week. (Also by myself) . I will be glad when this project is done.

And the corn has ears!

What has your lazy mutt done today?

Nice to see Chris Pratt getting gout and about.

I never made a move like yours, but you need to pat yourself frequently on the back for getting away from an abusive bf, even if it landed you in a puddle of uncertainty. That is huge. The uncertainty will clarify with time, and your beautiful dog will be there for you along the way.

Aww, thank you!!! We have been to a lot of great dog parks here. That’s one thing I love- people here are so good to their dogs! So many great dog beaches and parks, and they are always filled with awesome pups and peeps!

No advice to give, but welcome to the est coast: The Better of the Two Coasts! Tovah looks overwhelmed with joy in that picture, so you should take pride in being a good pet owner and start from there... Maybe take her to a local dog park and hope to make connections with other good/friendly people there?

Here are Willow and Amy for ya:

Currently with my ex from my college days. We were apart for almost 4 years. We stayed friendly when we were broken up (even while seeing other people) so getting back together wasn’t that big of a stretch. He is my best friend, partner in crime, and has always been there when I faced big life changes (good, bad and…

Guys!!!! I’m still exhausted and getting over stress from the hurricane. But good news as of this Monday my car is paid off and I officially own it and I’m thinking about all that extra money can put towards my other bills now.

Yes, except now we’re on the couch complaining about how our backs hurt. We ain’t that youthful anymore...

Gave up on online dating and my ex that I’ve never gotten over pops up. After three weeks of daily messaging, the “I want to come see you” message comes. And now we are talking about working things out. We have been no contact for four years. Anyone ever gotten back with an ex after years of being apart? We have both…

TBH I would steal cheesecake. Lock it up.

Thanks! We built this one to be sturdier.

Cheers. May you decimate bed frames for years to come.

BoyPenguin and I built a bed platform today. We stain it tomorrow. It’ll get us off the floor, which we’ve our mattress has been on since we broke our last bed platform. And yeah, we broke it exactly the way you’re thinking one breaks a bed platform. ;)
