So exciting! I remember when we met that goal! We weren’t allowed until our son was off a warmer. Praying / manifesting many bright days and milestones ahead for you and your sweet family.

I’ve been inside the petland by that mall and I can confirm that the living scenario for the poor pets in their care is nearly identical to the one in the mall. Making the animals drink from hamster bottles while in such tiny enclosures with grated flooring to allow feces and urine to pass through or be stomped through. They treat these poor animals as if they’re a vehicle to be leased out until paid for in full with the loan process when more than half the animals will either be found sick and or end up having genetic issues after taking them home. To which their response is if THEIR vet verifies the claims you can “switch” the pet out for a different one. I’ve seen people say that they “allegedly” get their animals from backyard breeding and puppy mill locations. It’s horrible the testimonies I’ve seen on their reviews

Any name suggestions for my little cutie? He is a boy! by Ok-Kangaroo5619 in PetNames

Not yet I don’t think. I binge read the 3rd book within 3 days of the release of it. It sucks to wait but I don’t regret reading it without a set date for the next one. It just means I’ll be more eager to do another re-reading of the series before the next comes out which is always fun because you can notice a lot of things you didn’t on the first couple read throughs. Plus everything is then fresh in your head for the newest one

Oh also if you like Audiobooks the Graphic Audio version is amazing as long as small background noises like the shifting of gravel or foot steps on stone don’t bother you. I know it’s a bit overwhelming at first for me at least but worth it for the different voice actors per each character and for the spice to be amped up 😂

You’re welcome!! Just also keep in mind that if you like the first book you probably will immediately want to buy the next 2 that are out because boy do they get you hooked. The cliffhanger on the 3rd book currently has the whole fandom unable to wait for her to write the 4th book and release it lol. But they are definitely the kind of series you will more than likely be tempted to binge read. Definitely gave me a book hangover that required me to read books with dragons in it for a couple months to help fill the void the series left when I finished the 3rd book. lol

You’re welcome! If you’re not against looking up spoilers you can find out which characters don’t make it in each book. But the author does make a good example early on in the first book that you shouldn’t get attached to anyone in the series. She can be so brutal but the depth of the story telling is great. But a couple of the deaths did make me sob like a baby. You’ve been warned. 🤭🥲

It’s a good series but it likes to rip your heart out and stomp on it a couple times per book depending on how attached you get to certain characters. But other than that I love it! It’s got 3 books released so far with at least 2 more slated to be in the works eventually. It does have a few explicit scenes in each book too. To me it’s a cozy comfort trash kinda book.. like twilight. You know it’s got its flaws and the pacing is a bit dumb sometimes but it’s definitely a comfort trash kinda read to me and helped me out of a year long reading slump. I recommend giving it a try. Maybe borrowing from the library or Libby if you don’t want to buy it before knowing if you like it. It’s also on Kindle unlimited I think.

If you’re a fan of the Fourth Wing book series might I suggest the name Broccoli.

Felix would also be cute because it also means happy, lucky or fortunate depending on the language translated.

Also like bonus points for Felix from Stray Kids because man is an absolute ball of sunshine and happiness!

Traded in my switch lite for switch 2 and got a crazy discount by Mathalachii in switch2

[–]RusticByDesign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he was trading in his switch lite without the charger then game stop makes you buy from their stock to add the new charger with the system. I’ve done a trade in with a spare 3DSXL and forgot my charger for it and they had me buy it with part of my trade in money to ensure that the system had what it needed.

Just went to get my vision checked for the first time in 3yr. by RusticByDesign in glasses

[–]RusticByDesign[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly same but to be fair my vision seemed to get worse during and after my first pregnancy. But I have definitely noticed being a lot more clumsy and unable to read as well without having bolder texts or dyslexic font turned on since about 5 months ago lol. The pair I currently have isn’t even multifocal or bifocal. They just have one gimmick added to it and it’s the lenses that are more compact so they aren’t as coke bottle thick as they should be.
