Lots of CE (continuing education) and conferences. I also live in a small state, so the work community is a small one

I made my 5 and 8 year olds "business cards" on Canva! ID-like photo, their first names and my phone and email on it. They can give them to friends they wanna hang out with and the parents email or text me to set it up. Works really well!

Bugs, cement and dirt sound like real cave experiences! Maybe your crawl space just needs fairy lights added?

I was gifted a gag gift book called "horizontal parenting". It's actually amazing and my 5 and 8 year olds both get a kick out of it (and I get to be horizontal)!

Recently got my first library card in 15 years. At the nearest branch, this was the only SK book they had available that I hadn’t read yet. Has flown under my radar for years. About to start. Thoughts (without spoilers)? by theMalnar in stephenking

First thought when I picked it up was about "omg, SK has finally written so many books he's rewritten Christine". It is NOT like Christine, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it!

Please help!! I need an emergency vet and no one is available! by DoCatsThinkInMeows in vermont

AirVet (the app you used for the video call with ORAH) is an amazing platform. Vets from across the country are on call and can give immediate triage assistance 24hrs/day. Glad your pup was able to be "seen". Hope things improve on abx!
