Woke up this morning thinking it was Friday. It is not. However, it is Friday Eve, and I’ll take that.

Maggie. A 9 and a half year old reddish/tan coloured boxer. If she wasn’t leaning against you, it didn’t count. Instantly fell in love.

Side view of Maggie. A 9 year old boxer. Her muzzle has turned grey, but she’s still quite full of energy. Had to be touching the entire time.

Sweet Maggie and I hung out this afternoon. She’s a 9 and a half year old boxer. I was supposed to be taking photos at the qualifiers in Summerside but she insisted on scratchies the entire time.

I’m making homemade mozza sticks and let me tell you - I’m gaining a real appreciation for store bought mozza sticks. If mine don’t turn out, I might riot. If I have the energy, that is.

Very little people (for Costco standards) and we used the self checkout for the first time. Plus, we only saw one person we knew, which is great when you’re a bit antisocial.

A household of 2 (myself & my mother) realistically have no business shopping at Costco, but we just did. Friday at noon is a surprisingly excellent time to shop there. It was the best experience we’ve had in 12 years of membership. However, with that, came some wicked damage to the bank account!

Protein shakes give me raging heartburn

Hoodie for a jacket kind of day. I’m
Sure the shit weather isn’t quite over, but today was nice, and I’ll take it.

I had a ticket for the Goo Goo Dolls/Dashboard Confessional concert that was supposed to be in Moncton tonight. I’ve seen the Goo Goo Dolls before but I’ve never seen Dashboard Confessional. Kinda big sad over it being canceled. I understand why but it still sucks.

For anyone else that is triggered by something that they face on a more regular basis, my heart is with you. It is not for the faint of heart, that’s for damn sure.

PTSD is no fucking joke. I have no idea what could ever manage it and I certainly know there’s no fixing it, either. Thankfully, mine centers around dogs and their health and I can control that by not owning a pet and by only being around dogs in minimal amounts…

Pulled stomach muscle. Pulled bicep. The price to pay for trying to hold back a 120lb dog from going after the neighbours two little shits (dogs). Mine dog was leashed. There’s never are.

Reasons I didn’t sleep last night - I forgot to unplug the vacuum cleaner. Forgot to move my coat away from a radiator. Forgot to move the phone charger off of a fluffy blanket on the couch. My nervous system is NERVOUS y’all. All the stuff that happens in the brain under neurodivergence is wild.

Re: hockey. Montreal desperately trying to get Cole Caufield his 50th goal of the season tonight on home ice just cost them the game. He can get there organically on his own. Just play the game.

Haha. That’s awesome! Someone might as well be saucy!

🤣 Fair enough. I guess I’m just not enough of a butter fan of any kind to double it up onto my toast. Even at a restaurant for breakfast, if my toast comes out already butter, I’m not adding anything else on top of it.

When you make toast with peanut butter, do you also use butter? Or just peanut butter? My mother uses both and for me, that’s straight to jail.

Bonkers

Tonka. 120lb bull mastiff/boxer mix. Taking over the entire couch. Me sitting on a square ottoman in front of the couch because he refuses to share his space.

Tonka. Nap trapping me on the couch. I’m not mad about it.

Tonka. Nap trapping me and holding my arm hostage on the couch.

Tonka. Either nap trapping me, or booting me off the couch completely.

Just had the doggo out to do his after supper business. The sun had lots of heat to it. Hope. That better weather is coming. I know it’s not this weekend though.

Tell him to write about why he doesn’t want the extra writing practice or why he doesn’t think he needs it, etc. That should give him the extra practice he needs, and you just might find some insight into why he’s struggling with it 🤷‍♀️

Facebook is stupid on a good day, but on April Fool’s Day, it is fucking unbearable.

And we both feed off that anxious energy. It is quite the wild time. Anyway, wish us luck for the next two weeks, please.

Also, in relation to our houseguest, I have severe PTSD from when I had a dog about 20 yrs ago. I was going through cancer, and my dog was having seizures. So, in my brain, every time this dog moves, or breathes, I automatically assume something bad is about to happen.

There’s “beef” between PEI Burger Love and The Seafood Shack, on Facebook.

Tonka. A brindle coloured bull mastiff/boxer mix. A cool 120lbs of drool, and farts that often turn into poops. He also snores like a freight train. We love him, though!

Tonka, our houseguest for the next two weeks. He’s settling in nicely thus far. He’s been here for lots of long weekend stays, but I think this will be his longest stint here.

Found out today that I can in fact eat a burger with relish on it. Still not a fan, but I didn’t die.

I’ve had this book on hold since last October. All of a sudden, this week, I went from first in line (finally), back to second, then to third, and now to this. I am bummed.

Homemade burger bun. Homemade chicken burger. Lettuce. Mayo. Kinder’s hot honey bbq sauce. Cheese.

Ignoring the state of the planet and posting a photo of my supper instead. Homemade bun. Homemade chicken burger. Cheese. Lettuce. Mayo. Kinder’s hot honey bbq sauce. Instead of the “Big Mary” from Mary Brown’s, let’s call this, the “Big D.” 🤣

Maybe the actual correct answer is Springter? Because why the hell is there snow on the ground, and much more forecasted to come in the next few days? Isn’t it supposed to be spring as of yesterday?

I don’t want a double vanity. I want us to have separate bathrooms. 🤣
