I had to a take a nap...

I had to a take a nap because I had a bad headache. I really thought I was about to get a migraine, but luckily I caught it in time.

I was about to get up and I looked down and saw this. Bear still isn't a couch person, but he's napping under my recliner. He napped with me and that kind of makes my day. ❤️

I'm very proud of this boy and his impulse control.

I'm very proud of this boy and his impulse control. The cats are having their morning wet food and he's patiently waiting to lick the plate after they're done.

Sounds still rile him up - mainly the ice dispenser. 😂 But he doesn't bite when we get ice anymore - he jumps, runs, roars, and body slams - but no biting. We'll take it. We're proud of his progress. Handsome smart boy! 😊❤️

Since I am particular about my nails...

Since I am particular about my nails I try to avoid using them as tools. It helps a lot to prevent damage and breakage if I don't use them that way.

I saw a smaller version of the Tab Buddy recommended on reddit, but it was made more for drink cans, not soup cans or cans of cat food. I bought another device from Amazon for lids with larger tabs, but it's clunky to use so I find that I just don't.

I emailed the team at Tab Buddy asking for a larger version for different types of cans and they actually made them! They emailed me once some were available for purchase, so I snagged 2.

These XL ones have been amazing. I didn't even realize that they were magnetic until Shaun stuck it to the fridge. That's great because it's always right within reach.

I think these are a wonderful idea. Even if I wasn't super picky about my nails there have definitely been times that my hands have been sore and uncooperative when my PSA flares up. I know this might seem like a dull thing to be excited about, but I don't care. I love things that make my life easier and our cats get wet food 2x daily as a treat (not to mention that I'm a fan of soup), so I am using this thing daily.

They have some super cute designs. I'm linking them below because they really earned my business by taking my suggestion seriously. ❤️
