Just wanted to share: Cant get over how photogenic my beautiful baby girl Ember is (when she stays in one place for more than 6 nanoseconds). She's my 2 year old Craigslist German Shepherd find. Once I got Ruger, I had always thought of eventually getting a 2nd GSD, and wanted a female...

I manage to live my life as complicated as possible apparently...:argh: My ex and I split up over 2 years ago, but remained roommates in the house we bought together. Was just easier / cheaper overall. Nowhere in this area could you rent a 2500sqft house for $650/month (if you split the...

Sorry in advance for the novel ahead... I've been on TCS since 2007, joined to ask questions about hyperthyroidism since my now-ex-husband's cat Tigger had been diagnosed. She passed shortly after. In 2008, we adopted Nero from a local shelter. He was a 3-month old black bundle of energy -...

Oh boy, it's been over a year since I've been on here, and I've missed it! I even thought about the TCS SS and how I missed it, again! Been so ridiculously busy .... May 2014 the BF and I signed a contract on getting a house built, then watched the slow building process through until our...

My ex and I split up in Dec 2011... and nearly 2 years later we're finally divorced :clap: I know for some it's a hard experience, and others are just happy to be done. I had to refrain from skipping from the courthouse, decree in hand! In Dec 2012 he told me he was sending me the paperwork...

So last month my job gave me two weeks notice because they hired someone to replace me. Sent me to do deliveries a couple times and learned that I was pretty good at it, so they offered me a FT job they originally never mentioned to me. Rather than be out of a job, I took it. It was supposed to...

It never ends... Since day 1 at my job, one of the drivers has been flirting with me. Okay, in the trucking industry it is expected ... one of the other guys even said "after looking at a bunch of dudes all day, we see a pretty girl and get all stupid." I know this happens, and am pretty thick...

As I posted a few weeks ago, I got hired to work part time at a courier company. Within the first week, I was ready to quit. I don't like the hours, I want a more normal houred job, and federal unemployment continues to pay me some compensation weekly because I make LESS money than I did sitting...

I've been unemployed since March 2012, when the company I worked for for 5½ years and actually felt some semblance of job security in (I was the only person who did my job, and my boss always left comments on my performance review stating I was the largest reason for the success of the...

Hey all, The boyfriend and I are so tired of renting. We spend nearly $1,000/month in rent on a 1 bedroom apartment in Charleston! We've looked into buying a house on and off for a couple months, and became serious with looking this past weekend. We looked at a few homes, and were shown a $94k...

The boyfriend and I adopted a dog at the end of July. We had gone to a friend's house, he had a Chihuahua he offered us, but then his girlfriend changed her mind and fell in love with it. Since Colin (BF) was pushing for that dog, I told him he opened a door to getting a dog! :lol3: My...

I made a thread about my husband and I separating not too long ago, and the story behind it. Well I got a big surprise tonight from him. I was out for dinner with the BF's family for his dad's birthday. We went back to his dad's house for some cake and to relax, when my [ex] texted me, asking...

When Rob and I separated, the cats stayed with him because I initially was staying in someone else's house (and they had two large dogs already). I got the apartment in January but had a lot of stuff to go through and get done before thinking of having the cats here. I was getting Nero and Neko...

On Thursday I got to work a little early so I could leave a bit earlier as well to pack for my vacation in Vermont this week. Around 9am my analyst got called over by my boss to go talk. When he came back in about 10 minutes later he told us he was laid off. We didn't believe him until he...

What a scary night! We finally got cable installed at the apartment last night, so we watched a movie on Spike and went to bed around midnight last night. Then awoke to a loud alarm sound. I thought my phone alarm was incredibly loud.... It was the two smoke detectors in the apartment going off...

Well, so much has changed in recent months, I guess its about time for an update! As Arlyn said in her thread, so much can change in a month! I experienced many changes as well! And it's long! I'll include cliff notes at the end :lol3: My username is now sort of interesting, as Tara & Rob are...

Just won my Thanksgiving turkey for the 2nd year in a row :clap: :clap: Last weekend us and a couple friends were supposed to go to a turkey shoot, but stayed at the fair later than intended. After last Sunday's tragic events, they really wanted to get me out and have some normalcy and fun in...

Hey all, just wanted to ask for some of those wonderful TCS vibes. Having a very rough time right now. I don't want to say much about it on here right now though. (Everything between Rob and I, and all the kitties, are fine). Thanks. :heart4:

And OMG I forgot how hard it is to go back to basics I am aching more than I've ached in a long time! A friend was talking about trying pole, but was warned of the crappy studio. She was looking at my pictures and said she wanted me to teach her. So I agreed. She's an absolute beginner - never...

Just need to type some stuff out. Kind of annoyed. My brother asked me to go to the Pride Charlotte event today - I finally decided to make the 6 hour round trip drive to spend a couple hours up there - he and my mom were going, but my dad was staying home (they never invite him to do anything...
