Mine were also from unknown place
Well actually guy had the 2 of my magnificant furkids (now they are since getting a year or so on them) at the front of a store and my better half brought up for me. I think it is wonderful you got from rescue. Anytime I buy my kids their food I always spend time talking with the ones up for adoption. Good for you- I would do that with my next 1.
stolen/hijacked by unknown offshore entity
who may use your information for his gain.
I have exactly the same problem. I am up now for some unknown reason. I just feel overly anxious
about everything and I get very tired of it. I think it is some kind of anxiety disorder and I plan to see my PCP about it. I get headaches, etc. from feeling this way all the time and my life is just one worry after the other and this is definitely not the norm for me. I sometimes feel this job doesnt help but I dont think cutting back is the answer because I would be bored and feel anxious about not doing something all the time. Seems like there is no winning. Let me know what you do that seems to help.
Designer Dogs
Oh, gees, don't get me started on designer dogs! Those who breed them are only out for as much money as the public will shell out! Come on, a poodle and a golden who is advertised as a gooldendoodle is a MIX BREED! Those who breed them (and they are on par with back-yard breeders and puppy millers and I refuse to call them breeders!) are frauds. They say the "best from both breeds will come out." This is not true! There have been more gooldendoodles who have temperament problems, forget their coat! Bad news here trying to groom them. Sure, they look cute as pups.
I have goldens and Shelties. I show them, but I don't breed them....I leave that up to those who are more knowledgeable in which dog and biiitch lines would merge the best. I don't want to create a structural/temperament/health issue that will be hard to eliminate as it takes soooo long to bred them out.
You'll find the majority of designer dogs go for much more than a purebred that's bought from a reputable breeder. AND, that breeder, if reputable, will have health clearances, you'll have to sign a contract which covers your dog, you, and the breeder, and the breeder will take the dog back if either you don't like the dog, you move, or whatever. So why pay $300 to $3000 for a mixed breed, especially when you have no idea how they will look when they grow up? Or, what kind of health or temperamental issues may crop up between the two breeds?
OK, off my pedestal.....can you tell I'm passionate about keeping pure breeds pure?
Just to say one more thing.....I am not anit-mix! Now way!! Just don't taunt that mix as a "breed" and charge mucho money for it! have had many, many mixes in my life. I even obtained a CD (mixed breed) with Casie and she was also a Therapy Dog. Boy, could she ever fish out food that the patients stashed, or hid, in their wheelchairs!!
OK, now I'll go take an extra B/P pill!!!!
(biiitch is mispelled as it is a bad word per my first try to post. Hey, a biiicth IS a female dog. Perfectly OK to say!
A new designer has been highlighted
An unknown designer has been recognized and compensated for his/her work of how many years they were not paid or recognized. Now box stores will see the shoes for $10 bucks to people like you, thus employing millions and millions of people all over the world.
Um, wait if she had worn flip-flops would you have asked how much her pedicure was?
Oh, and btw your rent is cheap...I am way over that.
designer clothes/shoes
I, for one, cannot tell designer shoes or clothes unless the designer's label is on the product. I, however, do know ugly when I see it and those shoes are fugly!
Now they unfortunately call 'em designer dogs...
but they're really just muts. They are all lhasa-poo's. It all began when we lived in a townhouse in the city of Lowell, MA. I really wanted a dog but they (the condo association) had a weight restriction of 40 pounds. So, we were out for a Sunday drive one day and happened upon this lady walking the cutest little dog. She told us where she got it and we drove right to the kennel that day. They had one puppy left (our Winston) and we snatched him up right on the spot.
He's getting mighty old and to help the hurt of his eventual passing not be as bad, I had the bright idea to get his replacement another lhasa-poo( a couple of years ago (Patton). Well, the young whipper snapper was constantly pestering poor old Winston, so I said, "Hey, we need to get him a playmate." Enter the third little guy, "Sherman." Also a lhasa-poo. So there ya have it.
The oldster is still with us...blind, toothless, and kinda stinky, but it's one big happy family of little portable dogs and I don't think I'll ever get a big dog just because I like the little lap dogs. They are totally gay though---little puffs of yappiness.
I was not out buying designer clothes or stuff for myself - sm
in my case it was "we", mainly him, spent way more than we make. Everytime one of his cards got a large balance (he never looked at the statements and I pay the bills) I would tranfer it over to one of my cards, which again he never looked at, and I had a P.O. Box for--so in my case it was very, very easy to do, and with paperless statements today even easier. We had a lot of things happen in our life over the past 4 years which made the money/credit card issue much worse, easily added $40K onto it (at $89K now)--family death, serious child illness--still dealing with that some--, job loss on my part, private school tuition ($12K a year---no longer go there for the last 2 years), inability to pay bills and heavily borrowed on cards----d-u-m-b I know. So don't be so quick to judge, it is not always so black and white. Yes I did get a few things I should not have, but I know during some of this time I was depressed though not horribly so but enough so as to buy a few things I never should have, but for 95% of it it was my DH never denying himself anything (though he would have if he'd known, and now he is --granted not too happy about it---one tiny concession he has made is only 9 beers a day, down from 12, so maybe he can get 3 days out of a case of beer instead of 2.) So my days of robbing Peter to pay Paul are over. We plan to have an open book when it comes to finances once his are paid off, and mine are enrolled with a debt management plan--- then only use his cards for gas, and work stuff basically--I won't have any as they will all get destroyed and cancelled in the DMP, and will use my debit card for everything --which I do now anyway, so it won't be a huge change for me. I don't think she is lamenting, just realizing what a horrid mess she has to deal with, it is hard, and I have to deal with my DHs comments for years to come, he did a few zingers last night. I will be okay though and have to pay the piper, it is worth it not having to go through a nasty divorce and custody fight as I know it would not have been pretty.
So excited, new digs at home, anyone ever have a designer to give advice on how to place furniture?
I am just so excited can hardly type. I am getting new tile throughout my home, well the living room/dining room big room and then slate for my master bath and carpeting for my master bedroom. My question is has anyone ever had a designer or room coordinator may be the name to come to their home and tell them how to arrange furniture and items in their room? I have never been satisfied with my living room. I have 2 full size leather sofas, an oversized chair, several floor lamps and I have end tables with wrought iron legs. I have some decorations but if you have this done do they want you to buy other things in case you need to put more color in the room, say for instance a throw, new floral arrangement, and the like. Sure would like to hear from anyone who has gone through this. All this tile work starting next week and should last about a week and a half.
Lucky for me I live in the rural midwest. Personally, I don't care about designer shoes
or pedicures, etc. The average person doesn't think about those things and I could care less what "Michelle" is wearing or who she is wearing or where she shops or if she has sleeves or doesn't have sleeves. I don't give a rats patootie about any of the superficial crapola that is the Obamas. Good God, people, this country is going to heck in a handbasket, the unemployment rate is rising, and we are talking about Michelle Obama's ugly, way overpriced shoes!
O talks about our government being fiscally responsible and his wife is wearing $500 designer shoes.
It's not "her money to spend as she pleases." It's my money, your money, his money, her money. O better put up or shut up and that means his family too. No more big talk about the deficit, fiscal responsbility, and redistribution of wealth when when his wife is walking around in designer duds. Am I the only person that sees hypocrisy in that?
