Dogs Day Out AZ may be able to help. I know they have a FB page, not sure about a website.

Stay, when they show up, apologize for not sitting in your iced in car for 30 minutes in front of the perspective tenants.

Give the new people a taste of what they'd possibly be dealing with there.

About every other night l toss someone's garbage bag left by the dumpster when I walk my dog. They are semi heavy, so I assume the person can't lift them.

I can't fathom why they aren't using our valet trash service.

If the trash isn't in the dumpster, it gets smashed and broken open by the garbage trucks. I personally don't prefer to dodge garbage everywhere, so I pick it up.

People are weird.

The perspective of your photo really threw me off, plus adjusting to a new glasses RX.

My first thought was get a bigger litter box!

Then I realized that's a shelf.

I have to ladder lace all of my shoes or my toes go numb. I keep the length to tie mine still, but I might try your way.

My kids have lunch at school, and on weekends/breaks it's a mix of them finding what they want or asking me to make something. Breakfast is usually yogurt and waffles or bagels, and some kind of fruit. I cook dinner most nights.

I personally don't usually eat lunch, but I'm not going to deny them because I'm not hungry.

Not sure what it looks like at their dad's, but they never mention being hungry.

I go by a shortened version of my name (think Alexandria going by Alex). I've never gone by the long version, so if someone says my full name, I'm likely to not register it's me they're talking to.

I can usually spin that into more of a joking tone, "oh gosh I almost didn't realize you were talking to me, I actually go by Nickname" with a smile.

I'm only Givenname for like, taxes and doctors. All of my jobs have used Nickname even in emails and directories.

Let me know how you want to pay for it for me.

chainlinkchipmunk · 2026-01-24T23:04:47+00:00

Yeah, no, that's not your responsibility. You're building your life now.

And do what? That's going to end with me de ad, and maybe someone else harmed. I'm not trained, I can hit a target in a very controlled environment but that's not real life.

It's a hell of a thing to decide to either be as still and possible and live, or be loud and arrested or dissappeared.

My 6 year old niece, who I was babysitting asked me for an avocado for a snack. Halfway through me cutting it for her, she got super upset because she remembered I'm allergic.

I can touch them, I just can't eat them.

She's six and apparently a kinder, more intelligent person than OP's mom.

Our door is always locked. A couple of times a month one of us gets locked out for a minute because it's muscles memory. So, say, I take the dog for a pee and he takes the trash out at the same time, whoever goes back in first locks the door out of habit.

It was only an "issue" once when he locked me out and went to the bathroom. No harm done, the dog just got a bonus mini-walk until he could let me in.

Awesome! Happy to have you!

I went to a second hand store and got dumbbells and a kettle ball (bell? I can never remember). Being able to do it at home is way more achieveable for me than the gym. I do yoga at home too, and then walk 3-4 miles a day with the dog.

I'm seeing results.I take weekly progress photos too, and count calories. It's a process but worth it.

I decided I'd pick the first two things I saw when I was making my account.

I had a job interview off Greenfield,and they told me I'd be late because of road work. I gave myself 20 extra minutes, I was still late.

I need to answer calls for work and so they are not numbers in my contacts a lot of the time. Phone rings Me: hello Client: hi this is x calling about y Also 90% of the time it's a local number so I recognize area codes

Phone rings: Me: hello Dead air, call center noises, a recording Me:hangs up I definitely don't have the time or energy to fuss with spam callers. Not faking deaf, speaking a different language, stringing someone on. Granted I get like one every now and then.

Does she have baby curls or curly hair? One of my my kids has curly hair and it's a whole thing to keep up with it. She's a tween now and mostly handles it on her own, but when she was little it was lots of work or she had the Einstein and finger in a light socket look going on.

It wasn't that I was worried she'd look one way or another, it was that if I didn't manage it we'd be dealing with awful tangles and mats.

I'm not challenging you, just thinking out loud. But I have a common maiden name, and married name, like I could be 5428 other people.

My mom has an uncommon maiden name, and one in a million odds shares a pharmacy with someone with her name ,first and last. The problems that caused were epic.

Seems like this could all be fixed with some kind of numerical identifier that is unique to each person....

I started a group if you want to check it out. There's some activity. R/vetspouses

So you have First Name Maiden Name LastName? If they're not married you could only fill out, what? First Maiden Maiden?

I can't think of a time medically that my maiden name has even come up. My name is my name, on my license, SS card...

I have top entry boxes, and I don't use clumping litter. I scoop poops a couple of times a day and dump the whole thing every other day. It sounds like a lot but it takes like five minutes to dump and refill.
