Good afternoon friends. I hope you're having a good day today. It's nice and cool this morning here... not cold or rainy, just chilly and sunny.

How are things where you are? And where is that, by the way

Good morning friends. Somebody asked me to switch schedules today to 9-6. It sounds good on paper, but getting out of bed was difficult. Working 3 hours earlier than usual is hard

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Good morning friends. I hope you have a good Sunday. No picture of me today because I haven't brushed my hair and I don't plan to.

This is Uni. She has ridden to work with her human every day in their bike basket for the last seven years. Has been offered many other forms of transportation, but refuses them all in favor of the Honey Baked Ham Express. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: unihalo)

"There Is a Plan"

I don't even know how one plans for all the crazy that this world throws at us on a daily basis, but it seems like it couldn't hurt to always bring a chainsaw.

Let's celebrate our first #EmptyTheShelters adoption of the holiday season! Happy Adoption Day to Goldfish! This beautiful girl was picked up as a lost kitty, and no owner claimed her. She is now the Queen of her couch and relaxing in comfort thanks to BISSELL PetFoundation. 💗🐾
