I'm looking for a temporary home for my 1 year old sharpei pug mix. She's about 30 pounds, house trained, amazing with kids (been with my 2 year old since she was 10 weeks old), extremely affectionate, spayed, shots up to date and chipped. I recently ended things with my ex and I'm currently between houses until about April and where we stay now won't allow dogs. My son and I both love her and obviously don't want to get rid of her for good. If anyone is interested or has any questions please comment on this post and I will send you a private message!

Thank you so much!

A big THANK YOU to the two wonderful ladies at state farm, for letting me use their phone and letting me stay inside with them in the warmth today after locking my keys and cell phone in my car. You truely made me feel better by telling me stories of how you've done this before, and offering me something to drink, and as awkward as it was you made me feel at home by having general conversation with me while I waited for my spare key to arrive!! Thank you again for the simple act of kiindness, which seems so simple but ment so much to someone who was stuck!! You to have been spotted, I hope you both have a wonder year!!!

Today I was at the Barrel House in Sandwich town and i just want to comment on the customer service i experienced. IT WAS AMAZING! I have gone there many times before and every time i get the same person as my server and he works so hard to make sure that we have the best experience and the best food possible.

If you haven't gone there yet i totally suggest it. Thank you Barrel House in Sandwich Town for always making my day a little better when i am there!!

I'm LIVID!!
Taryn's bus driver has always dropped her off past the intersection that is her "bus stop" because the intersection is unsafe.
Today she had a substitute driver and she dropped her off at the unsafe stop in a big snow bank and left her there!
I always watch from the door because grade 1's are allied to walk home alone, but because of the snow and having no side walks on our side I went to meet her.
I stopped the driver and showed her where the driver drops her off, and the woman just said "well that's not what the paper says!" and drove away!
I called Pearson fuming, and the idiot on the line says that it's not their problem, the driver is a trainer for the MTO and she did nothing wrong because that is her appointed bus stop.
she says that she should be crossing the road with the bus.
ok, so she crosses at the corner with the bus...then she has to cross again at the opposite side of the intersection, and than on her own again in front of our house...at 6!
and then she says that it's my obligation as a parent to make the decision if it's safe for my child to walk home unattended.
NO SHIT!!?? at her normal every day bus stop that she has been dropped off at for over a year it is perfectly safe for her to walk on the grass as I watch from the door!!
what human being drops a 6 yr old off in a snow bank at an intersection with only one way stop signs alone who is visibly confused and leaves??!
We have ever requested that the move the bus stop down the road further where it's safe and their response is "we don't do door to door delivery". I'm not being LAZY! I'll walk where I need to, I just value my child's safety!
Pearson bus lines, you've been spotted.
