A neighbor at my old place has a young rescue bassett ... and he's a lot of trouble for her. Last I heard, she hadn't managed to reliably housebreak him and he was seriously destructive. He chewed up her phone, her glasses and had broken a lot of stuff. Puppies are a lot of work ... some more than others, I'd guess (never having had a dog).
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Dana, congrats!
ND, I got nothing. I am no longer shocked at the level of apathy and incompetence (and, let's be fair, malice) shown daily by our national legislators, but it is so hard to watch it happen.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is a great letter, and a crying shame, ND.
I am so so tired. So tired. This puppy life is killing me
This is why people think they should get parental leave for puppies. (But still no.)
I edited an article with an author named Mako Mori, and it was so hard to not put a comment in saying "Tell me about the Jaegers. TELL ME ABOUT THE JAEGERS."
Ha!
if I have done all the math right and not missed any bills I have some money left to buy groceries! Huzzah!
Huzzah!

Ha, I was right about needing to link the Pool Code to the store number!
I'm saying it here so I don't say it out loud to my coworkers. That would be mean. But I did say and no one would listen

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats, Dana!
Mr. S's new school just sent out an e-mail with their plan. They will start out all virtual, and re-evaluate after a bit.
Now to see if our current nanny/aide will stay on through this...

Ha, -t, my bestie and I were just commiserating over the fact that neither of us can say, "Why, certainly, let me look up that information for you on the software program THAT YOU ALSO HAVE."

Heard back from vet. Bumps on Miley's leg are mass cell, so we need to get them off quickly and I'll probably be fighting mass cell growths on her forever.
No UTI, so they will try something meds for her peeing in her sleep.
Bailey's bloodwork had one set of elevated #, so they may want to do another test to rule out Cushings. I'm going to try to monitor her water intake over the weekend and that will help them determine what to do.
