well after 3 nites of looking at every hiking boot ever made and reading every article ever written on hiking boots .... i finally ordered a pair tonite!!!... ugh i dont like the color at all ......but i suppose the color isnt the the important thing with hiking boots lol

well the 3rd time wasnt the charm with my tying test and .. u can only take it 3 times... Ive never taken a typing test where u go in and boom take the test and only get to take it 1 time... most places give you 3 tests and take the best of the 3 at one time... oh well i guess that job just wasnt meant to be...

I think its cuz i get tense and nervous... cuz at home i can do much much better... the salary was very nice looking tho..

oh well i am not gonna get down on myself i did my best and thats all a person can do...

Hahhaha smart cat!

Curly I like your boots! Sorry to hear about the typing test

I got 2 new fosters today. One is a little tiny baby named smudge, he's 4 weeks. He doesn't even have real teeth yet but I've been giving him some wet food. Poor boy lost all his litter mates and mom and has been crying for them.

The second is a Tabby named Guiness (needs a new name) he's 10 weeks and a real handful. He's been attacking all my cats and the dog. Very bold for a little guy!

awwwww isnt he the cutest thing! and tiny also! reminds me of my myah she was that tiny also. even grown shes only 5 lbs

Hi everyone!

I'm having fun with my kittens. Guiness the tabby was just laying with my Bombie and nursing his stomach while Bombie gave him a bath. It was too cute!

hi girls. I started my new job on Friday and also worked on Saturday. MY LEGS ARE KILLING ME!!!....I woke up at 5am this morning and my legs felt all hot and like a heart throbbing....definitely going to take some time getting used to being on my feet all day. Thank goodness I wore a really comfortable loafer type shoe on day 2!!!

HI yas!!

Oh boy Angel that doesnt sound good.. u might wanna get some type of a better insole and put them into your shoes.. Naturalizer makes a nice comfy shoe in "dressy low heels" and casual styles... surf ebay and see what they have to offer in naturalizer..

VAl: i dont know how u do it.. i couldnt foster cuz i would be so attached.. I still dont know what I am gonna do with my 2 kittens/teens ... I think i am so attached to the lil gray one now i would only give her to someone i know personally.. even more so now after what happened with little Ugg..
w2hen he went to the farm.. the lady couldnt find him after 4 days...

lol i was so busy this weekend im not even sure what i ate... I had a craft sale saturday and made a whopping $15.00

yesterday Bill & I did a charity dog walk for a local animal group.. I didnt take chai becuz he doesnt know how to behave around strangers..


then walked 3 trails and had a tailgate supper of turkey chili ... it was yummy he is a good chili maker!

next week we are gonna attempt an 8 mile hike! lol he said what if its too far for us? I said I guess we will just turn around lmao...

Wow I really like this time change ... I can get up early again!!!

Angel sorry your legs hurt. I know standing all day can be a killer. When I work adoption shows my feet kill me the next day.

Curly It's hard to give them up. But I know if I don't I won't be able to foster any more!

Happy Howl-o-ween!!! .. onto the thansgiving challenge..

when i was at the dog walk i met a lady who does personal behavior training.. so i looked up her web page.and contacted her.. cuz ya know chai has issues... and its 60$ per hour.. but when i contacted her and told her i would have to save up a while before i could schedule an appt. she sent me back a form and said there is an animal group who will provide scholarships for dogs who were adopted from shelters... is that too cool or what?

oh thats right i am supposed to talking about staying OP .. well i got nothing for today... the boss gave us free pizza for halloween and i had some... (smacks hands) BUT in exercise related news... I am doing an 8 mile hike this weekend!!! dont know if i am ready for 8 miles but i guess if i can walk all night at relay for life i will make it thru the 8 miles!!!

hey Pic's,

Angel... I'm so happy for you that you got the job. Invest in the good shoes and you'll be happy for it

Val... the new babies are adorable!!!! I'm in total agreement with curly, I couldn't do it. I couldn't imagine giving up sam or K.C.....

Knock-Knock....

May I come back? Perhaps it has been so long. Maybe Curlylocks will remember my avatar cuz she made it for me (one of my most precious possessions).

Well, to make a long story short...I fell off the wagon, grew an extra bunch of bulge, and miss my friends....

So now, I crawled out of my hole, stepped off the pity pot, lifted my head, and am asking for help. You gals were always a blessing to me, and I guess it took my too-tight-of-pants cutting off my circulation when I sit down for the last few weeks to remind me to pull my head out of the fridge!!

I will keep reading later on my lunch break to catch up!
Take care all.

Val: hope u are feeling better! chai's vet visit went pretty well.. the vet says "he just doesnt want to be touched by strangers" so that makes things a bit challengeing.... hopefully the behaviorist can be of some help... Bill keeps wanting to meet chai... but I know chai wont be too happy about meeting Bill lol


Dee: i hear ya girl... on that halloween candy!!!


Angel: how are ya doing with the new job???
