Lucy!!

I got a puppy. she’s a 3 month old black lab. She was intended to be a police dog, but the cop decided he wanted a German Shepherd instead. He gave her to his girlfriend, who couldn’t keep her. My boss went to the pet store to get her Shi Tzu some food and saw her. She told me about her, had them hold her for me and here she is! I love her to pieces. She always has fun. Here she is:

Herbs and Puppies and Apostrophies, Oh MY!

February 25th, 2008 by Tabatha

I have no idea what was going on. My apostrophe key would open up “Quick Find”. You know, that bar at the bottom that’s usually awesome? Not so awesome when I’m just trying to type “don’t”. Firefox has actually been doing a lot of crazy junk lately. I’ll be typing a sentence, and it will put the last half in front of the first half. It’s strange. I just assume it’s because I have more people on my computer now and they’re just clicking on junk. When I have a laptop, no one is touching it. For real.

I’m trying to study some of the vitamins and minerals and everything at GNC while I’m off. I don’t think I’ve ever been put in a situation where I felt so absolutely dumb to everything. People come in the door and I ask “Can I help you” and the entire time, I know I probably can’t. I’m getting better. I can help you with losing weight and with a cold. I, however, know nothing about the working out muscle building stuff. I’m learning. I wish there was always someone in there with me who knows when I don’t. I feel so bad when I actually can’t help someone.

Something slightly related to GNC: I started taking St. John’s Wort again, except I’m taking 2 capsules 2-3 times a day like I’m supposed to. I thought it would take longer but it’s been about a week and a half and I’m feeling better than any pharmaceutical antidepressant has ever made me feel. I feel like it’s helping with social anxiety. Neither Lexapro nor Prozac helped with that. They really only made me feel worse because I thought they SHOULD be helping and they weren’t. So St. John’s Wort is a win.

I’M GETTING A PUPPY!! I haven’t found her yet, but we’re going to get a Bassett Hound puppy. I was going to wait until I found a young Bassett from a shelter, but we have decided to get a puppy instead. I know, I know. The absolute right thing to do is rescue an adult. I’ve done this twice and it has not worked for me yet. I ,for once, want to have a baby that I can train and not have to squash out old habits. Which is hard. Really hard. My situation (2 cats, multiple people to interact with, and a 5 year old) doen’t allow for a lot of the issues that shelter dogs come with. I’d LOVE if I could rescue an adult, but I can’t. Especially with a hound. Anyway. I’M GETTING A PUPPY!! I feel like I’m about to have a baby. I can’t wait to rub her ears and her giant feet. I can’t wait to kiss her head. Oh and clean her poop. Can’t forget that.

Image Explanation: I’ve been researching Noni so I can know what to tell people when they come in. I haven’t found a whole lot, yet. What I have found is that Noni smells so bad it is referred to as “Cheese Fruit”, “Starvation Fruit”, and even “Vomit Fruit”. That is so freaking gross. I have to wonder now if the stuff we sell smells like that. I’ll have to ask Sharon when I see her. —- p.s. why is it SO difficult to add caption in Wordpress?
