We’re still getting settled.
Remember my post about silly animal paintings? Danielle wanted me to paint her two sweet cats, Chowder and Maxine, shortly after we moved into the new house. I tackled the project in my first little bit of free time: Next in line are my friends Taylor (who has an adorable dog named Nellie) and Katie (who owns two beautiful dogs named Sam and Mia). I'm pretty excited; dogs are my favorite. Several health and beauty related posts are on the way, I promise. Between looking for jobs and the frequent trips to target/marshalls/kroger/walmart, I haven't had much spare time for...
I’m kind of a worrywart.
As someone who refuses to watch the news, who abhors meeting new people, and who cringes at the mention of 2012, I can honestly say that I'm one of the most fearful people that I know. I've never cared for that flaw in my personality, and I've recently started to hate it. So, logically, I'm going to something about it. I'd guess that about 97% of the things that I worry about cannot be prevented, changed or stopped by me. That's ridiculous, and it's also really bad for my health. Did you know that people who worry about things that...
I might be hoarding health and beauty products.

Moving sucks, but I think that it might suck a little less for me than it does for most people. My possessions are pretty much limited to clothing, accessories, miscellaneous craft items, and a lot of beauty products. I realize what kind of person that must make me seem like, but I can't muster the energy to care. Our bedroom furniture is Kirby's. Our living room furniture is Kirby's. Even our dishes belong to Kirby. I am using Kirby's computer to type this post. We did buy our television together, so I guess that's something...but moving...
Any dog shampoo experts out there?
Clementine and Winston, my sweet dogs, have a big bad flea problem every year around this time. We've been using Hydrosurge Oatmeal Soothing Shampoo from Walmart (I'm not proud of that; it doesn't have the best ingredients). It's not relieving their itching at all, and it's certainly not killing the fleas. We have resorted to using dish detergent, which kills the fleas. Still, I'm very uneasy about using something that's made for washing dishes on my dogs. I also think that it's making their skin dry (duh.) and, as a result, more itchy. I've...
another picture post: Clementine and Winston
Everyone thinks that they have the cutest dogs around, but I actually do. Proof: Clementine has plenty love to give. She will lick your face for hours if you let her, and she is a big time cuddler. She doesn't mind having her teeth brushed or her hair combed. She doesn't object to the occasional application of lip gloss or the donning of a party dress. She believes that all dogs are her best friends. She likes to run and is always excited to see me when I come home. Clementine likes to chew on important things. Winston has an old soul. He...
We didn’t even tell ghost stories, and I still enjoyed myself.
I went camping with my friends, my dogs, and my boyfriend last weekend. It was magical! the highlights: I got to spend time with two of my sisters. They are big fun. Clementine had the time of her life. Winston was climbing on everything within reach of his stubby little legs. Amidst all the beautiful nature, we found this rock that looked suspiciously like a penis. Kirby got stuck on a rock wall for a minute. Yes, she has a dog backback. It carried her treats, portable bowl, and a small amount of water. We got a chance to rough it like big strong men. It consisted of blueberry...
