I Have Acquired My Pets Through 4 Means, Ranked By How Often They Happen:

I have acquired my pets through 4 means, ranked by how often they happen:

1. Porch Finds: my late ferret I got from being dumped on my porch, and my eldest cat was a kitten that just kinda showed up on my porch

2. Foster Fails/Rescue Work: Pet came in through our Kitten Program or through the dog Rescue we provide care for at the clinic and they end up just coming home, my terrier and my youngest cat were acquired through this method

3. Reputable hobby breeders: 1-3 year wait list, 1 to 2 litters every year or two, I typically look for dogs that are coming from proven working lines with performance titles and solid conformation, I want to see the temperaments and sociability of the lines, and I want to see examples of the dogs produced and what they're doing in their work. I pretty much stick to this option with my PPD and Service prospects.

4. Wash Dogs and Private Rehoming: This is how I got my mal, he's a very nice imported, Netherlands bred Malinois with a Dutch Navy sire and a former police dam. He was imported for a DOD/Homeland security partnered bomb training program along with 4 of his littermates, however, he proved to be too handler focused bordering on Handler dependant for bomb and searching work. I worked with one of their trainers, and he knew I had to retire my prior cardiac alert dog and offered him to me for $1000. He's now a lovely dual purpose protection sports and cardiac alert dog, and yes, he is very handler focused, but that was matter of finding the right job for being handler focused rather than destroying a dog and wasting resources by forcing him into a role he wasn't suited for.

4.5 Importing dogs: Importing a proven dog or a prospect from a proven line is a better option for some breeds when you're looking to fill a specific job for a dog, and the breed has low availability or poor breeding in the United States, balanced working mals and GSDs are incredibly hard to find in the US, and most reputable working line breeders here are also importing dogs to supplement their lines and lower their inbreeding coefficient. If I hadn't come across my Mal as a wash dog, I was looking at taking a trip to Europe to source a quality Malinois. It is a mid 4 to low 5 figure investment for a young, untrained dog and higher for finished dogs. Typically, this route is pursued by organizations and serious sport and working handlers or preservation breeders it is not typical for pet owner sourcing.

Went To Church Today On A Very Wet, Snowy Sunday Morning, Took Care Of One Of My Comfort Care Patients

Went to church today on a very wet, snowy Sunday morning, took care of one of my comfort care patients with some antinausea meds and SQ fluids, then ran to the grocery store, now I'm cuddled in with my Critters for the Eagles game. Go Birds!

Outfit is:

- Ralph Lauren Cotton Cardigan circa 2019, similar to This cotton blend Cardigan they currently offer.

- Tommy Hilfiger Imina boots in Saddle Brown thrifted you can find them on poshmark Here

- Wool & Cotton Skirt by Ann Taylor, Circa 2016, unfortunately they don't have anything similar anymore and have largely switched to synthetic blends in their knits

- Thrifted, tagless top of some sort of synthetic stretch blend, bought at my local goodwill for $7

- 100% cotton leggings from fair indigo size XS find them Here

- Scarf head covering for church is a flax bandana I bought from an Amish vendor at my local farmers market, you can find a similar one here on etsy.

This reminds me of recent discourse on booktok where a smut author/influencer/reader was saying the classics are inaccessible and then, as a white woman, used POC and poor people as human shields to defend why she shouldn't have to read ANYTHING but fairy smut and Colleen Hoover. She was very quickly clapped back with "I was in an underserved underfunded district all we had was the classics" "theres libraries" and "do you think Black kids aren't capable of reading or understanding classics?" And then she doubled down about how the average literacy in the USA is at a 6th grade level. And then she got FURTHER clapped back at for the fact that a lot of the classics are at 6th and 7th grade levels AND we have tools like sparknotes, internet dictionaries, and how kindles even have a built in dictionary and how most classics are available for free in both MOBI and PDF format AND in print at most libraries (school, public, etc)

hi! please could you recommend cheap fragrance free moisturisers, suncream and cleansers (both oil and water based), as well as body wash, shampoo and conditioner? :) thank you ♡

Hi Nonnie! Of course!

For Drugstore fragrance-free products in the $5-$15 per product range, I really like CereVe for facial skincare, they have a foaming oil cleanser. They're too mass-market for my tastes. However, they are dermatologist-recommended and affordable. I also believe some of their packaging is recyclable, but check with your recycling provider to see what plastics they accept and don't accept.

They also have fragrance-free sunscreens with and without tint if you're looking for something with more of a BB Cream effect, and an AM and PM moisturizer pair, with the AM moisturizer having SPF 30 built-in.

As far as body wash & shampoo, I'm honestly not sure about fragrance-free products, I'm sure there are plenty out there. However, I switched to an all-in-one castile soap from Dr Bronners for my body, face, and hair (which is unscented), and I really just use natural oils to condition my hair. I also home-make a lot of my skincare & hair care, and I'll be posting skincare & beauty recipes soon to help you ladies start crafting your skincare from food-grade ingredients.

And the sudoku and the little sweet treat just before bed. And actually turning down the bed. And closing down the house at the end of the day, and also soup.

you can make fun of old people all you want but then you'll be knitting with a good album on and a cup of tea and you'll be like this is excellent actually. the old ladies were right about this one. about the crosswords too, by the way
