Thursday Mindless Babbling 8-29-13
Second to last day at my current job! Got a little teary eyed saying goodbye to two caregivers last night that I went to visit while they were on shift. One surprised me with a desk calendar and a couple other little trinkets to bring to my new job. I finally got some decent sleep last night. I think...

Tuesday Talking - 8/27/13
Wow, I haven't started a MC thread in.... well possibly ever. I'm a bit disappointed that I'm not seeing responses from the "powers that be" on the beta thread anymore. Initially, when they were answering I felt like they cared about what we were saying, but no response makes...

Ruby - are you sure you're comfortable? (tacran)
When Ruby is totally relaxed and sleepy, she's like a blob of jello. The later the hour, the goofier her sleeping positions. This is how she looked last night just before we unplugged and went to bed. Her feet aren't touching the floor, but she remained "balanced" for quite a while...

Friday 8-23-13 very confused chat
Still not sure this is a good format. Nothing seems set up in any order, or at least where I can find it and set it the way I want it. And the ancient threads from members no longer around, why are they showing up? TGIF regardless... Nothing else to report.

Saw a posting for a bichon. Weak, vulnerable time, having just lost Lacey. So I emailed. Four days later (and after...

Introducing Dogs
Ok, so long story short my mom expressed interest in coming to stay with me and the significant other for awhile in case she doesn't go back to work right away. Her new dog (who I am starting to think may be all Jack Russell) is, according to the shelter, "picky about his dog friends" From...
