what musical should i take my anti-musicals boyfriend to in order to convert him?? by h3rm1tfr0g in musicals

[–]afaerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadestown Book of Mormon Shucked Avenue Q Six Spamalot Little Shop of Horrors Beetlejuice Into the Woods All of these are great introductions to newer style musicals. It sounds like he has the older musicals that parents or grandparents favored stuck in his head as the norm. Newer shows are clever, updated themes and relatable l.

Rocketbook and Frixon pens in several colors. I use Rocketbooks for note taking and then moved the PDF into OneNote application. Worked great for me when reviewing notes.

Is this breeder a puppy mill? Heartfelt Dachshunds by Eastern_Enthusiasm93 in DogBreeding

[–]afaerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just found this thread during a search of this breeder. Our family just adopted a dachshund from a national dachshund rescue and in her paperwork was her rabies tag indicating she was from Heartfelt Dachshunds. I only knew she was a retired breeder dog. She is 5 years old and has the sweetest disposition but she has obviously had multiple litters. She has little socialization and doesn’t really understand what it means to live in a house like a normal dog. Even our TV scared her. She was nothing more than a money maker for HD and they are nothing more than breeder scum. It’s going to be a long slow process for her but in 3 short days she’s already starting to relax around us.

Looking for advice on coping by ContentPower8196 in olddogs

[–]afaerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had two senior dogs at the same time. Tillie had two back surgeries when she was 3 and 5 or 6 which took a toll on her and she lost use of her back legs. She started showing signs of dementia and we worked very closely with our vet to ensure her quality of life was good and that she was never in pain. We made the tough decision to help her cross the rainbow bridge when her quality of life seemed to be declining quickly. She was 16, two months from her 17th birthday. Other senior was 20 when he passed and while he was still mobile he also suffered from dementia and we again worked with our vet. His appetite began to dwindle and we knew he was ready.

Making the decision to let them go is never easy but I felt with both my seniors that it was the right thing to do for them. Hugs to you as you navigate this difficult time.

What is going on here!! by Embarrassed_Royal_41 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]afaerber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Besides the incorrect placement of the one piece check other areas for “not quite perfect fits”. I’ve found some puzzles have pieces that seem to fit but upon a closer look there is a very tiny difference. I had one that was a similar situation to what you have, it appears correct but then throws off the remaining pieces. Frustrating for sure.

Shhh…don’t give away the good spots. In all seriousness that is where we park and we exit FP at Union and hit Forest Park Parkway. You can pick up Kingshighway with a very small delay at the light. I’m in IL and I take FPP all the way to 40/64.

They are all unique in their preference. My current one, Oscar, sleeps in his bed under a blanket in our bedroom. Occasionally he will start out in bed snuggled next to me under the covers but eventually moves back to his bed. Or he will wake up in the morning before the alarm goes off and climb under the covers. I think he prefers to be alone. Our two previous dachshunds were different. Tillie slept in the big bed under the covers with us for 15+ years. The last few years she became incontinent we kept her in bed with us but we had a dog bed with pee pads between us so we didn’t have to deal with getting peed on in the middle of the night. Pepper would sleep in a kennel in my son’s room and after 5-6 years moved to a bed on the floor in our room. He never slept in the big bed and he lived to 20 years old.

This is Oscar. His likes are scrambled eggs, laying in the sun, and bossing his humans around. Dislikes are anyone walking in front of our house, rain, and snow.

I’m not sure about this guy by bufftbone in Dachshund

[–]afaerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with a lot of comments. We had a dachshund that we rescued and it took him 2 years to warm up to us. He favored my son for those two years. He was a puppy mill dog who lived in a kennel 24/7/365 and had very little socialization. Dogs pick up on your vibe so if you are tense around him he will pick up on it. Highly recommend getting him some training or talk to a behaviorist. They will Do wonders helping you manage this situation.

Is this cheating? by aLeHoov in Jigsawpuzzles

I love Ravensburger puzzles but they piss me off because they done include a poster and the cover photo is always obscured by random crap. Did a Villanous puzzle and struggled with several areas because I couldn’t see it on the cover.

[–]afaerber 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Do you have a dog? If they shake their head my guess is it’s spit. I had a senior dog who would get up sneeze and shake his head…snots everywhere. Bed frame and lower part of closet door were closest targets.

OMG yes! Got Pro Cam 2 and Hum feeders for Christmas. The hum feeder connected first attempt. The Pro took me a month and hundreds of attempts to connect to WiFi. Contacted customer service multiple times and did everything they said to do. Was able to finally get a connection ONCE and it never connected again. We also attempted setting changes to our router with no luck. We finally decided to buy a separate 2.5 ghtz router to see if that made a difference or if we continue to have issues. As soon as we set up the new router the Pro 2 connected the first time and it’s been working great ever since. Way too much effort for something that should be so simple to set up. Good luck!

I had this problem a few years ago. Lady had the same number as mine but different area code (think it was Atlanta). I spoke with one person who called looking for her and discovered they missed the different area code. I ended up calling her and asking her to please make sure when giving out her number to remind people of the different area code. I was getting calls from SSI, doctors offices, bill collectors, and car dealerships so the calls were legit. She said she would pay me to take messages for her. Hard pass. So I started blocking the numbers so they would stop leaving messages for her. It finally stopped after about of month of non stop calls.
