I follow this person on Facebook, and if you go to her website she has research on loneliness. Most of her research is on loneliness in professionals (especially lawyers), and as a professional, I guess I can relate. She posted this video on facebook the other day, and it made me think about how...

Too Many Typos

Since some people from here like to ask me questions about dogs (ahem....VanillaCreme), I thought I would go ahead and make a thread where people can ask me dog related questions. :) Here's a little bit of background with me and dogs: I started off in middle school training my grandparents...

Friday I went and picked up the ashes of my dogs. My vet made castings of their paws, and when I opened the bag and saw those I lost it. I miss them. I miss my life.  Weekends suck so much right now. During the week, I am stronger, because I wrap myself in work, but by Friday I am so burnt out...

Last week I came home to my house on fire. I lost everything, and all five of my dogs died. I wanted to end everything that night. Everything I worked for in my life gone. My best friends, gone. My life revolved around my dogs, their care, their shows, everything was about them.  The news story...

I really just need to vent this, it's kinda a good thing, but made me reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaalllll anxious. Sorry for the novel. For those who do not know, I am a dog breeder. I am very protective of my reputation, because honestly this is why I live. (Yep, this is my monster, I live for these...

When they say helping others makes you feel better, it really works. I can say, helping out the people that help out the homeless pets, is even better. A few weeks ago my local animal shelter posted on facebook that they were in desperate need for food bowls. I wanted to help but, A) I was...

I don't even know if I will really post this.  I am having an issue with that lovely three letter word that all relationships need, aka sex. I have low to zero sex drive. I am going to therapist now (only one session so far though), and he diagnosed me with depression, anxiety, and some kind of...

So, I do a lot of things to mess with my students to keep sanity. Nothing too bad, just jokes for the most part. I want to share them with people, but people are too uptight at work (it's a teacher thing), and I NNNNEEEEEDDDD to share these. So, right now, one of my classes is obsessed with a...

Hey everyone, thought I would reintroduce myself since there are new people. I haven't been on in a loooooooooong time. I actually forgot my password, and not having internet has been a drag. I realized a week ago, that I need this place. I am working through some depression issues, and my bf...

My depression has escalated to the point that cognitive therapy is not working for me anymore. My "lady" doctor told me in December, that I was to the point where she could medicate me if I wanted. I really don't want to be, but emotionally I feel so miserable everyday. Even though logically I...

I don't have internet at home so I need to catch up on forum stuff but first, I just need to rant. It seems to make me feel better, so here it goes. I feel like I am going to loose it. Last week I found out my grandfather has stomach cancer. A week ago he was in Florida playing golf, cancer...

I posted last month (I think) where I haven't been taking care of myself and I needed to get my life in that direction. I went to the dentist, and got a cavity filled. I went to the lady doctor to see if I have what my younger sister has (will get the result on Feb 3rd). She had me take a...

The first step is admitting that there is a problem, and that you are helpless to….well…whatever. For a while now I have not been taking care of myself. I can think of it back when I moved out and went to college, is when it started. When I lived with my parents in high school, I took care of...

I am in a conflict within myself at the moment, and this is a long post, sorry. My little sister is one of my best friends, and by far my favorite family members. During most of her adult life, she has been depressed. She bounces around from place to place, and at first in her new places, she...

I thought about putting this in the diary section, but really, I don't care if people comment. I have been back at school teaching for 3 weeks now, and at this moment, I miss my old job and old students. The kids at this school are ridiculously disrespectful. I cannot believe how they act. I...

So good news, I bought a house. The eh news (not necessarily bad) I cannot get cable or DSL internet at this new house. So my options are wireless through a phone service, or satellite. All I want to do is be able to browse and work with my google docs. I have high speed internet at work, so...

Well life takes interesting turns, and as most of you know, I am moving back to my hometown. Which in the long run will be great. So now, my boyfriend and I are looking for a house to buy. Being young and dumb, there are things I don't know to look for when buying one. We took my dad the...

Here is the background: As many of you know I live about 3 hours away from my friends and family, because of my job (which is why I am on here in the first place). I have always had the intention of moving closer to home, and my boyfriend is completely for it. He has no connections to where we...

Okay, so, I love phone games. I have been playing clash of clans now for a year, and I have a pretty sweet base now. I have joined clans, and I found that I love war on there! Bad thing is, I have to deal with people in the clan. I joined one clan and they kicked me out because they didn't like...
