Heading to bed.  All in all, it's been a good day.  🙂

Some bro in Happy Tails Lost & Found Pets of Calhoun County did try to ruin it for me, but he failed.  He jumped in on a comment where I reminded the Original Poster that re-homing animals wasn't allowed and proceeded to tell me that he didn't see where the OP was trying to re-home.  I quoted the lines to him and then he got all mad, said he was leaving my group (boohoo!  LOL), and then blocked me.

I assume he blocked me so that he could tell the rest of Facebook how horrible I am for having the nerve to correct him - without me being able to see it.  LOL  I don't know if it's because I am female or because I'm matter of fact or what, but a lot of people can't seem to handle me keeping my group on task (this is the 2nd person in about a 10 day span and it is not unusual, unfortunately).

All I can say is:  Sorry, not sorry.  If you don't like it, get out.  We're 5000 strong at this point and doing great things for the lost animals in Calhoun County.  In fact, just a couple of hours after that post was posted the found dog was reunited with her family.  It is truly a group effort and I really can't thank the members enough who follow the guidelines and keep an eye out for lost pets.  ❤❤❤

For the last two nights...

For the last two nights when I have gone to tuck in Nappy and Faith I have found Faith in a crate with the door shut.  Not locked, but definitely shut.  It's a big, rusty crate, so I don't think the door swings easily.  Nappy is either running into it, or Faith is closing it herself somehow.

Last night she pushed it open and came out when I entered the room to get the lights.  Tonight, she just stayed in her bed and waited for me to turn the lights off.  LOL

My dogs are so weird - and I wouldn't change a thing!  ❤

Well... it's been a pretty good Monday so far!

Well... it's been a pretty good Monday so far!

I was really productive today.  I tutored and in between students I did my Ethics work for the week.  I have to study for my Lab Praticum for Biology, so that was a good move.  I'll be able to focus more on Biology instead of worrying that I'm going to slip up and forget to do Ethics at all.  Online classes stress me out because I'm always afraid I will forget to do them.  LOL

ASIDE FROM THAT I came home to nail mail AND a gift.  I got my cat vinyls from Twinkled T, so super yay for that!  AND Shaun got me a shirt that I've been wanting for ages.  Y'all know I'll help any little creature I find, so this t-shirt that says "I kissed a squirrel and I liked it" IS PERFECT.  That was really unexpected and so sweet and it made my freaking day!  😃

Anyway, I'm off to clean a bit and study.  Maybe I'll even sit down and do my nails later, though the thought of taking off my caterpillar nails makes me sad.  Maybe y'all aren't as into bugs as I am.  Those barely got any likes, but I thought they were the best I've done in a while.  Oh well.  LOL  I will probably still do more bugs in the future.  😛😃

I am pretty bummed that vacation is coming to an end.

I am pretty bummed that vacation is coming to an end.  It didn't feel like a complete break because it wasn't.  Still had to tutor and still had class. Was woken up too early and from too many naps too many times because I'm too nice to let people go without.  Also, the Scooter stress wasn't very relaxing, although his incision is looking good now and I am grateful for that.

On the bright side I really enjoyed being home with my family (Shaun, Shadow, and the ani-pals), and I also had fun doing nails.  The day trip to GA was also pretty cool.  I enjoyed the aquarium, but it always stresses me out to go that far away.  I'm a serious homebody, but in my defense - most of my favorite earthlings are here!  ❤

Anyway.  Heading into Monday with my caterpillar nails on.  I'm still excited about those.  😃  Now I'm off to make dinner and get ready for the week ahead.  A week of doing things that I don't necessarily want to do.  Boo!  But it's not so bad.  I suppose that I am grateful for having opportunities.  Gotta get my attitude right.  LOL

Later, friends.  ❤

I feel like I found my creativity, thankfully, but

I feel like I found my creativity, thankfully, but just in time to go back to work and be too tired to put something like this together again.  🙁  Boo!

So I know this is totally spring and not summer, but I don't care.  I felt inspired by a plate and I went with it.  I'm happier with these nails than I've been with any of them over the last few months, but with as much other stuff as I have to do I guess I should be glad I have time to paint my nails at all.  Putting the same design on every finger can look really nice, but it's just not me.  Unfortunately, having so many options can be overwhelming, so it usually takes longer for me to decide what to do than to actually do it.  😕

Anyway, I did this the other day and it was ok, but I had stamped the caterpillar down in just black outlines and I really ended up being disappointed that I didn't do a decal instead.  SO... I took that finger off and started again.  😛  Originally I was going to make the caterpillar a cute little pink one, but, well... it made her look kind of phallic, so Shaun picked a blue and we went with that instead.  She's got green leaves and vines around her, as well as pink bow on her head and a yellow flower beside her.  That is much better than trying to discern what you're looking at with no color definition at all!

The background for all of the nails was done using plastic wrap - it's a lime green base with two other greens dabbed on top for texture (probably most visible on my thumb).  If you don't remember what I'm talking about since it's been so long since I've done it, you just crumple up some plastic wrap, dab it in some polish, and then lightly dab your nails until it looks how you want.  Super easy!  It's great for getting a marbled appearance and things like that.

The rest of the nails I explain on Polish All the Things if anyone is interested.  I wasn't planning to make a long post about these nails, but it looks like I did it twice.  LOL  Oh well.  My brain feels all swimmy from lack of sleep.  I think I am rambling.  Ok, done.

Any questions on methods or products, let me know!  ❤❤❤

Home from the vet, AGAIN.

Home from the vet, AGAIN.  I'm REALLY hoping we don't have to go back for a while.  Scooter feels the same!  He didn't mind being put into the car for an outing, but when we got to the vet he passively protested going inside in the form of getting all floppy and not moving.  😃

I can't tell you how much that tickled me.  He's done that ever since he was a puppy.  If he didn't want to come in from being outside he'd do whatever he was doing in the yard until I got near him, at which point, he'd melt and become a limp noodle with his legs in the air.  LOL  Attempts to pick him up failed because he was a 40 lb piece of flop and would scream and cry like you were murdering him if you tried to lift him.  Best bet to get him would be to SOMEHOW maneuver him back onto his feet and have a leash clipped on him when you do.  He's my stubborn, spoiled little weirdo and I wouldn't change a thing.  😃

Anyway.  Dr. Long said to keep cleaning his incision and putting ointment on it.  He said it looks just fine.  So, that sounds like a good plan for the weekend.  Unfortunately for Scooter he's got the towel wrapped around his neck again.  It does a pretty good job of deterring him from licking and it also doesn't cost $20.  If he becomes persistent I'll go to Wal-Mart and buy some things to make an e-collar.  Or either get off my butt and actually look for the last one that I remember having.

For now I am exhausted.  I didn't get in my bed until 6 this morning, then I was up at 10, napped for an hour, then took my boy to the vet.  I think I'm going to take it easy today.  The house is mostly clean and it's my last official day of vacation.  I think I'm just gonna flop around in PJ's until I feel like doing something else.  LOL  Happy Friday, friends!  ❤

Back to the vet at 2.

Back to the vet at 2.  Either my towel collar didn't work, or Scoot popped a stitch from moving around.  I have no idea.  🙁
