I need some clothes for a growing kid!

I need some clothes for a growing kid!  Anyone got any old boys 14 - 16 jeans they need to get rid of?  I would gladly pay for them - I'm just reluctant to buy anything new because he's growing so fast.  I feel fairly certain that I will be outgrown by the time he starts 6th grade.  😳

I have a problem.

I have a problem. Someone is trying to dump two puppies on me.  While I would really like to help I would like it better to not be confronted with this so often.  I feel so tired - like I need a break from it all.  I feel like I need to get my last couple of fosters homes and take a break before I jump into puppies again.  And I feel like a bad person for thinking of myself.  😐

I wish I didn't live so close...

I wish I didn't live so close to ignorant people who choose to remain that way. They will never see the bigger picture - all they can think about it what makes them happy at the moment - not what's best in the long run. I do hope things work out for them, but I don't see it happening. It's depressing; I tried so hard to be a good example for the teen stuck in the midst of the crap. Looks like it didn't do any good.

A Lesson in Preventing Dog Bites in Kids

I'd probably bite most kids, too, if I didn't have any other means of telling them to back off. I think the most important thing you can teach your kids is to respect others - even animals!
