Applying Applying Applying

That’s what I have been doing. I realize though that just because I am applying to places doesn’t mean I am qualified – especially since I am trying my dayumdest to get away from Admin.

Dare to dream of the day I can work for the Farm Sanctuary. Dare to dream of the day I am out of debt and can save up so I can take a summer off to work for the Farm Sanctuary. Dare to dream of the day I am retired!

I was thinking though – if I do have one dream come true, the doggie day care, will I have time to dedicate to the Farm Sanctuary like I want to? I wonder…

I heard some horrible news today about my nephew being bullied at school. Apparently some kid came at my nephew, who I’ll call BG, so BG fought back and ended up winning that battle. Now there is a war against him from all the other kids friends. Seriously. They are pushing him in front of moving buses and cars and man… it really makes me want to go up there and kick some ass. Ugs. Here’s to hoping that the police, parents and supervisors can make a difference. I remember high school though – those kids get something (or someone!) as their target and it’s hard for them to move on! Annoying. I hope it all turns out ok… BG is a really great kid.

Well, it’s Tuesday. Glad it’s not Monday any longer. :0) Hope you have a happy!

Yeah some kids suck. But I'm glad BG isn't one of them and I'm sure he'll be OK.

Job hunting is hard. I know from experience. Best of luck. And also best of luck with the nephew. I hate bullies. Was bullied as a kid. It took me getting a growth spurt and beating the living $h!t out of one of my tormentors to get it to stop. Now it's hard on kids. Bullies do more than just give wedgies or swirlies. My nephew had to switch schools (got into a performing arts charter school with his sister) to escape the gangs at his school. I wish that schools would expell anyone that bullies another kid. C'mon schools now have cameras in the halls. Sorry about the rant.

Good Luck on getting out of admin and into a job that will lead you to either Doggie Day Care or the Farm Sanctuary. Either way you'll be helping animals live a better life. And good luck on the walk. Hope you're still getting donations... wish I could give more!
Crossing fingers that BG's bullies will leave him alone!
