Sex & Shenanigans

Indeed, but this time if year it's easy to scoop. It's all frozen. Poop-sicles, if you will

In all seriousness though, my vet had to reschedule from two weeks ago and is coming at 11 to put my old guy to sleep. He's almost 14, has arthritis everywhere, and terrible inflammation. I adore his fuzzy face, but it's selfish of me to keep him here when he's in such pain constantly.

Oh gosh, I’m so sorry. 14 great years is wonderful but still too short.

Oh, I’m so sorry. Thats one of the worst choices a person ever has to make. Be well. Cry hard.

I love animals, but even at that, Alfred is special. Wgen we were being sued by very bad people, and they would post a guy outside my house when I was taking my kids to school in the morning. Though not an agressive breed, this dog would stare down the bad guys, and do that low, intimidating rumble growl. He would go with me everywhere, it was the only way I felt safe.

It also helped that he is so big that he's outside of breed standard. He looks part Dane. I'll miss him so much

Sorry I can’t do two responses. So I’m going with love for the good memories.

big hugs, Tig. I’m glad he was able to be your protector and that you had 14 years with him.

He definitely does look part Great Dane. Most Danes don’t live that long anyway.

Glad you’ve enjoyed your time with him but I know he will be missed.

I recently had to put our cat to sleep. Seventeen and he was my guy. He was on me like a tick. I feel your pain.

Side note, fun fact about me, in general I give exactly zero shits about what anyone thinks about me in public. Don’t care if they like my hair or not or think I should wear different color or whatever. Don’t care.

But I really do care that my dog rules. I’m just not man enough to have an unattractive dog. The one time my wife adopted an ugly annoying dog, I made her walk it while I walked the pretty one and basked in the reflected glory of the compliments she always gets.

Everyone’s got some sins on the soul.

My fluff nugget is so shaggy .. she looks like a big goofball .. and she is.

I’m so sorry to hear this, I know they are family.

Question for the masses…

Do you meal prep… not like, cook one meal and put in containers for multiple days… but like, do you organize what dinners you’re gonna eat during the week?
If so, how far ahead do you plan?

I plan meals, but I’m always divided between my organized self and my chaos self… it’s like when I was a kid.. my dad liked to plan ALL the meals, lunches, snacks … for like 2 weeks.., and my mum liked to just be flippy dippy like a chaos demon and cook what meal she “felt” like on any given day …

Like how you take out chicken … and then by noon.. you’re already not feeling chicken… or if you are you’re feeling it cooked in a way you have NONE of the ingredients for. So then you have to either adult and just cook what you had planned.., or save it for the next day .. which is truly evil to your future self (I do this often).. or stop at the store after work and get the ingredients to make whatever is is you’re craving.

Thoughts?

 

[crazychemgirl]

She beautiful, look at that face!

Your doggos are fucking adorable… I’m sorry you’re going through what you are. I can’t even imagine. I’m tearing up just thinking about it. All the love to you my dear

I go through phases of planning meals (as in getting the ingredients for a week’s worth of meals and then cook those as I go) and not planning. The problem is that when I’m not thinking ahead for meals I typically end up ordering or going out way more than I should. I can’t do the whole cut everything up and make a container for each day of the week because that gets too repetitive. I don’t typically eat a lot of leftovers because I get bored easily or get “the ick.”

But I do try to force myself to make something at home if I’ve got the groceries for it because I hate wasting food.

I hate repetition also … but will also eat the same lunch every day for a week just for sake of cost and convenience

This one is waiting for me and I’m sure she will welcome your Alfred

I can do that for one meal, and right now that’s breakfast. Eventually that obsession will end then it could be breakfast or lunch. But I’m also just bad about eating lunch… like it’s almost 2 and I’ve had a protein bar today.
