I think I’m going to go to the ER and get checked out. I’m having lower back pain, nausea, and I’m lightheaded. Might have to call an ambulance since I don’t want to drive when I’m like this and no one is around.

Merry Christmas! <3
One of my friends took me shopping and to look at a Christmas light display yesterday. She felt bad that no one has come to see me lately. It's not the fault of my two closest friends who have been away at a dog show in Florida, and I will see them for Christmas and New Year's Eve. But it was nice to get out and spend time with a friend and it did make me feel better. I also finally woke up at 5am instead of 1am!
I think it's about time for me to buy a new car. I'm leaning towards a Toyota Highlander but I have also looked at some pickup trucks and other SUVs. I need more of a utility vehicle than a stylish one. Does anyone here have a Highlander, and would you recommend it? In terms of pricing I am probably looking at a used car, like a 2020 or 2021 model, probably.
I have naturally mostly straight hair but it takes me about an hour to get the pin-straight look I have been doing for the past couple of days. For a long time I thought I was going to stick with the wavy look with the curled ends but I really like how the sleek, straight dark hair looks. I think it looks more "grown up" and classy. But since I did have some training in hairdressing, I like to try different styles.
Good morning Luca.
Why do I look 10 years younger than most people my age? Lol...
I feel like most 28-year-old women *look* like they're in their late 20s/early 30s, and I look like I'm 19 or 20. Do other autistic women feel like they look really young for their age?
Consider helping dogs like Enzo this holiday season!
Help Pointer Rescue
Does anyone else ever feel like they smell bad but everyone else says you don't? I've been so self-conscious about body odor since I had my surgery in October. I feel like my crotch smells, and my breasts and my stomach rolls. I'm convinced that it's a really strong odor that everyone can smell but no one else seems to notice it, unless they're lying or trying to be nice. I shower/brush my teeth kind of obsessively.
I hate when people who are also opinionated tell me I'm too opinionated. They obviously can't handle someone disagreeing with them or telling them they're wrong about something. In this case someone was wrong about something and I proved them wrong and they lashed out at me. There was no sense arguing with them though and I wanted to quickly end the argument by saying my piece. It just made the argument worse. Whoops
You know what’s worse than hearing someone say they don’t like you?
When they continue to pretend that they do.
I would rather have my feelings hurt just the one time than be lied to for months or years.
I'm considering getting a second Pointer. I have a few friends who breed them, including my best friend, so it would be easy to get one. They are just the best dogs.
I set out as a Dogo Argentino breeder originally but I will have to consider raising Pointers too. I have a lot of favorite types of dogs, but there are some that just totally win me over.
I brought Enzo into some dog-friendly stores today. He stayed in a down-stay for five whole minutes while 20-30 people walked very closely around him. I have never heard so many people compliment a dog’s behavior lol. I love all my dogs but he is truly exceptional.
Everyone doubted him but he has proven them all wrong.
I think Enzo gains more motivation every time someone comments on what a well-behaved dog he is. Then he puts on a show. Lol
“An ordinary dog is focused. An extraordinary dog is on a mission.”
I think we are pretty much competition ready at this point!! We have had quite the journey.
My friend and her dog are competing in the National Obedience Championship today! If you go to AKC TV you can watch them starting at 8am US Eastern time!
We’re having weird weather here. One day it’s below freezing and the next day it’s 40F and raining. It might snow on Christmas Eve but the high temperature that day is 27F!
No one wanted to go out in the rain…
Hex is recovering very well from her ACL surgery, we are now up to 45 minute walks! I will update with pics soon. -
