Client had demanded medication for his dog that's having diarrhea on Saturday when we had no doctor in the office to prescribe it. Called him to pick it up today and after he gets back home he calls us back and asks why that particular med was prescribed. Sir.. do you want our help or not? Grrr!! #VeterinaryMedicine #VetMed #frustration

Monday into Tuesday is always exhausting for me. Somehow it's worse than any other morning getting up for work.

If anyone is interested in checking out the Finch app, it's a really cute daily check-list you can add things to (like remembering to drink water or positive affirmations) and as you complete them it helps your little bird grow and learn and explore. Plus you can collect fun outfits for them.

Use my invite code 1PEY8QME48 if you want to try it out.

It's called Finch and the icon looks like a little bird face.

I'm so proud of this little plant. I took a cutting of a plant we've had at work for the entire 10+ years I've been there and was hopeful I could get it to grow. It's made so many new leaves!

As I'm putting groceries away, I can hear her complaining about the lamp and how she can't even sit and relax. I lost it. Snapped at her and told her all she does is complain about anything I do. I don't know why I expect anything different. 🤷‍♀️

My mom regularly complains about anything and everything. A lot of times, it's about something I'm trying to do or I've gotten for her because I think she'll appreciate it. Just got her a nice LED floor lamp so she can see better to read in her recliner. What was she doing when I got home? Bitching that the kitten was trying to chew the cord and constructing some hideous monstrosity to keep him away from it. (1/2)

Question! At a buffet.. the appropriate way to approach the sushi counter is?? Here's what I do. Start at one end and go down the line. What is not the appropriate way?? I'm gonna say jump into the middle of the counter and park your baby carriage right in the way of the person who was there before you, thus blocking their access to the rest of the sushi. That just happened to me. Why are people idiots?

One of my bestest friends turned 30 today and threw herself a Warped Tour themed party and we were all told to dress accordingly. There was a trivia contest. I totally blew the first question and the answer was on the shirt I wore to the party. How did I miss that??? Still managed to win the contest though!!

Oh! And goodie. My boss is remotely adding tasks for me to do from home to make things even better for me today. She can't take a day off even when she's not here.

I just added "scream into the ether" to my daily Finch app to-do list. It's one of those days. I'm grateful for an empty waiting room so I can vent frustration after each time I hang the phone up.

I listen to way too many podcasts and it takes me forever to get through their back catalogs and get caught up. Right now I'm tackling one of my favorites. Our Fake History. On episode 67!

Roof contract signed. Deposit handed over. Now we wait for start day in a few weeks. #FingersCrossed

Guaranteed the instant I go to use the bathroom, that's when the roof guy will show up.

Waiting for the roof company guy so we can sign the contract and get that party started. Long overdue. #adulting #impatient

How does everyone feel about "different" baby names? Just came across a post from a friend of a friend about a new baby boy in their family named Krimson Noxx. I get wanting to be unique but..

This weird CSI-like episode of Stargate Atlantis was totally out of left field and I don't know if I like it. Let's just pretend it never happened. #CoSoTV #Stargate #scifi

This makes me so happy! I've been cleaning out extra dog items in my house from when I had larger dogs. This belonged to my heart and soul dog Gypsy and I've been holding on to it for sentimental reasons for years. Passed it along to one of my friends for her pittie Nala and it fits perfectly!

The shrinkflation of Halloween candy is very depressing. My boss bought a few big mixed bags to start putting out in a bowl for clients when it gets closer and the tiny amount in each wrapper is crazy. 3-4 Haribo gummy bears. 2 little Twizzler pieces. Crazy.

Snuggles with the pooch.

One of my least favorite things about having a front desk job is when clients walk in, come right up to me and immediately launch into a whole list of things they need or what's wrong with Fluffy today and they can clearly see I just hung the phone up and I'm writing a note down and have already said "I'll be right with you." but they keep talking.
