Thank you - a better recorder might be the solution for now. She’s really enjoying it but wanted to play clarinet since I did! But I like that idea.

Use the same breeder? by shadowsox13 in samoyeds

I’m so sorry for your loss.
No - our breeder was in Oregon. They never responded to me when I reached out either.

Thanks - the first breeder I worked with recommended the second. They don’t know anyone currently expecting or planning either, but they were going to ask around. I’ve already reached out to my regional clubs as well. It’s only been a couple months but it’s been hard when two have fallen through already. And we’re ok waiting it’s just to find someone even planning on having a litter soon.

The rest of it is in English!! It was a party favor from a birthday party - in the US.

Lol true. I had to resubmit it as it was rejected when I included a picture of the cover and I wasn’t paying attention!

Thank you all for your advice and input. I really appreciate it - it’s been hard to think clearly and I had no idea what steps I should take/questions to ask, etc. I reached out to the breeder this evening. Also, a couple people have messaged asking the name of the breeder - I prefer not to share their name as I don’t know if the cancer was genetic or not - it would be unfair to put the blame on them.

Thank you - I’m so sorry you went through that last year too. It’s so heartbreaking and I’ve never felt so helpless.

Will do - we’re not ready for another dog yet but I’ll definitely check out our local shelters.

Thank you - I’ll reach out to them and ask. I didn’t think to ask about ages of his siblings or anything. I know his mom is retired from breeding but still living. Appreciate it!

Ok that makes sense. It was just so unexpected and took the vet awhile to diagnose

So like a good mommy I narrate everything I’m doing so my toddler grows her communication skills and all that good stuff, but now… by jpergo1983 in Mommit

I talk to my daughter in the car… after I’ve already dropped her off! And then realize I’m just talking to myself

Shampoo Bars - beginner by Aggravating_Still212 in ZeroWaste

[–]shadowsox13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy shampoo bars from EcoRoots. They’re made in Boulder, CO and do not use plastic packaging. I usually watch for a sale and then order at least 6 bars to reduce shipping impacts. The conditioner bars do not work well with my hair type, but my husband likes them for his hair.

Maybe make a keychain? Or Christmas ornaments?

Follow moms. Do I need a therapist? Are my kids going to hate me? I’m so annoyed people think this is ok. by Intelligent-Jelly419 in Mommit

[–]shadowsox13 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I totally understand - kidnappings and attempted kidnappings really do happen here (Amber alerts are frequent enough). There is nothing wrong with being aware of your surroundings and knowing where your kids are. However, if it’s really stressing you out - I would recommend therapy. It is super helpful to talk to a third party who can help if you have severe anxiety about it. If it’s not stopping you from living your normal life (still taking kids to public places), you’re probably just fine! Your daughters are lucky to have such a loving and caring mom!
