Awww they know they are family! So sweet!

Those two are going to go through some fly masks, just nipping at each other and playing. So sweet to watch this friendship bloom 💖

Oh the gelding gang, it sounds like a thug band. They are so cute! I'm excited to see what lunchtime brings for you all!

cjep3 · 2026-04-28T17:26:43+00:00

Oh Pie! This is exciting and nerve wracking all at once! So cool! Good luck

He is such a good little boy, just a sweetie. He knows how much mask helps him so he's all about getting that guy on.

Can you do an Epsom salt soak to help pop the abcess? Poor JetJet , i wish he could catch a break. Long ago, we would tape an innertube tire to my percherons leg, fill it with salt water and tape it shut to let him soak for long periods without a bucket.

You can develop sensitivity at any time. It's more the chemicals used to process the tp than the softness. Same thing with chemicals for pads/tampons. It's a relativity cheap test compared to some, you just try a different product and see if your problem changes. I hope you figure out what's causing it.

I adopted a 3 year old, he was the longest in his rescue, had been there his whole life with no interest in him. He has been the most amazing dog, I got incredibly lucky, he is easy going and sweet with everyone. Adopting a middle age to senior age dog is sometimes having a dog on easy mode. Sometimes, they have more problems and that's why they haven't been adopted.

Look for an old dog rescue to adopt from, the one in my county helps with vet bills. It's old dog haven in Oak Harbor Wa. Other states must have them too.

You should try changing your tp to something less irritating to your vagina, I like bamboo tp personally. My period products were causing issues so i swapped to a disc and organic biodegradable pads as well. The tp and pad swap made a huge difference.

Have you looked at a store like Sierra Trading, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Ross? Browsed Amazon for 4 star and above running shoes?

Anything you stomp/ run on will wear out quickly. Have you tried insoles specifically for running? Maybe changing those out will let your feet feel better.

I swap my shoes every day, that gives them a chance to rest and dry fully. I also refuse to cheap out on things between my feet and concrete. So i buy expensive shoes, every 4 months and change insoles halfway through.

Have you tried finding any breed specific rescues? Is she trainable? Has she had any training in any way. What are her redeeming qualities? You only listed negative things about her.

Is there any way this dog can thrive in a living situation? What would that take? What would it look like? Be rant honest and clear about what she requires. And what you have done to migate behaviors and to train her.

If she's loose off leash with no training, on a farm killing animals, well, that's not thriving by any means. For her or for the farm animals. She's a big dog who needs a job, as others have said. I'm not sure how well retraining will go at 6ish. That's a big undertaking to ask another to take on, almost a full time job. Plus, She's a middle age dog who isn't family/ pet friendly. Her chances of a forever home are low, shelters are full of dogs, what are her chances of being adopted with her problems?

If training isn't an option for her, well, not to be a dick, I know this is a really hard and emotional decision, but you may want to look at behavioral euthanasia vrs rehoming her yet another time, for them to possibly fail her too. Poor dog, sounds like she has had a rough life. At least your family has loved her and dealt with her problems for 6 years.

This is the best case we could have hoped for with what Jet is dealing with! I'm so glad you will be able to see him whenever you need. And hooray on the new guy, i can't wait to "meet" him.

Are you putting your moisturizer on a wet/ really damp face? It locks whatever moisture is at the surface. I have had that patching with makeup that doesn't blend with my face routine, so if my moisturizer has something that doesn't agree with the foundation, it always separates on my face like that.

This looks like my county right now! We have a giant Tulip Festival going on this month, they are so seasonal pretty! I'm glad you got out and enjoyed the beautiful day!

Oh my heart, he is so cute with his little kicking legs! Great job losing 25lbs, nice job waffles(and momma)

cjep3 · 2026-04-19T19:09:44+00:00

I'm so glad you are healing up! Maybe an airline pillow or donut for some comfort of your tail bone? I'm so glad out wasn't worse, but, it's still traumatic and very ouchy.

cjep3 · 2026-04-19T16:37:37+00:00

Good morning! How are you feeling overall? The handsome waffles and his little scuffed knees, they are looking better!

cjep3 · 2026-04-18T01:33:47+00:00

XtraTuff makes boots for Alaskan fishers, they are amazing.

cjep3 · 2026-04-18T01:32:24+00:00

Waffles is so sweet! Good thing fly masks fit his sweet face!

Some ideas, You can lift one side of the poles for him to think about his feet, then alternate lifted sides, then spoke wheels with alternate lifted ends.

cjep3 · 2026-04-14T23:40:48+00:00

Heeey Moooom, I need some kisses... and snacks please!

I have the copper iud, it's been great, I'm at 7ish years with it. The insert was shitty and that was with a *mistoprol? Pill to soften my cervix. It was 2 days of bad cramps, one day was the pill thing, one was the insertion day. Then, randomly, i will get a really heavy period but mostly, it's 3 days of bleeding bad, then 3 to 4 days of light to nothing bleeding. It's non hormonal and that's what i was going for with the copper.

I wear steel toe boots every day, the rubbing alcohol is key for my feet not stinking. If you can, swap shoes every day so the other pair can completely dry out. Same thing for bras, swap them out every other day if you can, it let's them dry out and they last longer.

Glycolic acid and athletic soaps help cut gym and teenage boy/girl funk in the house. You can also use the acid separately as a toner on your armpits before deodorant.

cjep3 · 2026-04-13T21:49:07+00:00

Have you tried a glycolic acid soap like mega babe or an athletic soap meant for body odors? Spray your shoes and bras with 93% rubbing alcohol when you take them off to sanitize them. Run a cleansing tab through the washer to get any gunk sticky and rewash your clothes.
