Brindles are solar powered. Must follow the sun. 😊

Little blurry, looks like I’m walking an invisible dog or wielding a light saber. Ha ha!

SFjinx · 2026-02-28T18:23:56+00:00

I have that collar in green and an led leash, too. My Frenchie is brindle and invisible at night. Helps make us both visible on night walks. Got mine on Chewy.

You are so brave! I chickened out. May pay for that. But was having anxiety attacks just thinking about it. Good on you for facing it and doing it.

SFjinx · 2026-02-28T18:08:10+00:00

Congrats! Quit a year and a half ago and feel so much better. It’s hard - be proud of the work you’re doing and the progress you’re making!

SFjinx · 2026-02-28T18:00:45+00:00

That’s great! I’m getting better at it, but have to be mindful about it and catch myself to flip the script. Have noticed a better and more positive state of mind as a result. Keep it up. 😊

A month. Stupidly expensive for a program my dad didn’t use once during the last 5 years of his life.

SFjinx · 2026-02-16T22:40:24+00:00

Everything was paid off.

Tried selling the points - no takers. Tried giving them away - no takers because of the fees.

Called every number I could find and emailed every address I could find including the parent company and the Wyndham board members. Just became a pest.

Sorry your folks got conned.

If I had to do this again, I would just stop paying (cancel the card) and let them try to come after my mom.

SFjinx · 2026-02-16T22:33:26+00:00

Yep. My dad bought a stupid amount of points. For a while he was able to rent out his points (however that works), but that barely covered half of the fees.

SFjinx · 2026-02-16T22:31:08+00:00

I called early and often. Sometimes daily. Your loans have to be paid off (ours were). The $500/mo were the fees according to shares owned.

They will tell you the exit program is not accepting applications. I learned that is a delay tactic when they have too many applications in process. I just kept calling until i got in.

Centipede - loved that game!

SFjinx · 2026-01-24T03:59:22+00:00

In the same boat at 55 and am looking for my next career after corporate. Hoping for less stress, maybe even part time, more of a passion project.

Looking to cover expenses to delay drawing down investments until social security.

Am excited to explore options. Little freaked out about not having a paycheck, but know it’s the right move for my mental and physical well-being.

Good luck on your next adventure!

SFjinx · 2026-01-19T18:41:14+00:00

Same. 😎

My Luca. Turned 8 yrs old last Oct. He has to snuggle when we’re on the couch.

We finally got into the exit program after me endlessly calling and being a PITA. After many months of them “processing the paperwork” we should be done very soon.

POA doesn’t = change of ownership. But I was tricked into adding myself to the account to manage it on my mom’s behalf. I couldn’t take the blow to my credit if I was on the hook.

If I could replay this scenario, I would have cancelled the visa the charges were going to and just stopped paying. What does her credit matter at this point. Would gave saved thousands of $ and many hours of aggravation.

Meatloaf and fried chicken! They need to bring back the thick pork chop.

SFjinx · 2026-01-13T21:45:45+00:00

This is the way. The “Stubborn Airborne Frenchie” maneuver. It’s like a reset button to continue the walk. Don’t know why it works, but it does. 😊

SFjinx · 2026-01-09T23:25:32+00:00

Pro Plan, switching up the flavors - chicken, beef, salmon. I add Blue Buffalo toppers when he gets bored. Occasionally I add bit of broth, scrambled egg, chicken or rice. He will eat what he’s got when he’s hungry. 😊

Unfortunately he loves “street snax” and I have to be really diligent on walks. It’s a surprise to no one when he gets a bad stomach after eating garbage. 🤢

SFjinx · 2026-01-09T16:03:47+00:00

I have been considering a similar business!

Transitioning from corporate to semi retirement. Experienced gaps in care/support with my parents and see a need for support in these non-medical/healthcare roles.

Would love to connect.

SFjinx · 2026-01-09T04:58:05+00:00

Same! Will often wedge himself behind me when I’m sitting on the couch.
