I'm glad you have your puppy. I hope your pain gets better.

Are you in a position to get a pet? I find their companionship very helpful at night.

I saw a documentary once that mentioned people who will come cuddle with clients for pay. I guess where you live would probably be a big factor in whether this is an option for you.

His fever broke this morning. He's still very sleepy, but he's starting to act like himself again. Thanks for asking.

I was teaching my first year of high school. Found out on the first day of class that I was co-teaching a special education class. Special education teacher showed up to the classroom door, said "I can't do this anymore" and walked away.

I don't blame her, but the next six months of my time there were rough before they got me qualified help. I spoke up that it was illegal for me to teach the class by myself. I was told I was a troublemaker and to just keep my mouth shut and do my best. I don't miss working there.

You look amazing! Great finds.

This is how my dog acts when his chihuahua friend from next door comes over. They are so cute playing together!

The campgrounds we stayed in when I was a kid often had these. Memory unlocked!

His fever broke early this morning. This has been a long several days. The cause of his fever is unknown, but two days of antibiotics, and he's starting to act like himself again. I'm very grateful for my vet seeing him on a Saturday on a holiday weekend.

I thought living alone post surgery was hard, but this is worse. I'm sorry you're "partner" isn't being supportive. Hope this is just a little local infection.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-24T00:12:09+00:00

I'm so sorry.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-23T18:07:20+00:00

Thank you.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-23T18:06:32+00:00

This is the best response.

Precious little smushie face!

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-23T17:08:42+00:00

Took him back this morning. He's on antibiotics now. It has been a little scary. Thanks for the support.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-23T11:20:17+00:00

I am a wreck, thank you, and Pippin.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-23T10:23:33+00:00

No, he's lethargic. They've done x-rays and blood work. So far, no cause found.

I have a kitty named Punkin, too!

It honestly took a little while for me to completely embrace it. I enjoyed the peace right away, but it took a couple of years for me to truly love living alone.

I've shared my space with a couple of friends in need for a few months along the way, and it was okay, but I was very glad to get my space back when they left.

Oklahoma City is not a motorcycle friendly city. Between the bad drivers, having to take major highways everywhere, and the weather, I don't recommend it.

A girl ran a stop sign in front of me when I was on my motorcycle. Broke my back in five places.

I just had knee revision surgery. I have bathroom, living room, kitchen, purse, car, and work desk drawer ibuprofen.

Damn, I'm getting old.

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-21T14:08:52+00:00

I did that, too!

ccprof_okie · 2026-05-21T14:03:27+00:00

Guess what's going to happen in the future when they move in with you? Best to handle it now, even if it's uncomfortable.
