You know you're a true-blooded Minnesotan when it is -28 degrees with wind chill, but you still want ice cream for dessert

Ugh. You would think the hardest part of fostering puppies would be letting them go, (which is definitely hard, even though you know they're going to great homes). But no, it is telling people who think they want a puppy but are totally unsuitable that you won't let them have one. Word to the wise, if you are thinking about adopting a puppy but you work all day and think it is okay to leave them alone in a cage with no food, water, or ability to go to the bathroom without soiling themselves, DON'T! If you are thinking about adopting a puppy, but you have kids who don't even want a puppy, DON'T! And even if your kids want a puppy, but they have no emotional control, leave small choking-hazard toys everywhere, and basically want to treat a tiny living creature like a stuffed animal they can dress up and stuff in things, DON'T! Just don't!!!!

#MyFavoriteMemory Probably reading The Boxcar Children books with my mom and little brother before bed when I was little.

OMG!!!! A shiny mega so early!!!!

We just lost the smallest puppy of the litter, Remy. I am completely devastated

My newest foster dog started giving birth at 3 AM this morning, and she is still having puppies!!! So far we are at 10 little babies, 7 boys and 3 girls! I've been awake with her all night and all day, so we are both very tired, lol

This looks like so much fun!

I'm Minnesotan! Ask me Minnesotan questions!

So I'm seriously considering keeping the last of the foster kittens. She's the runt of the litter, and is black, and for some reason people don't like to adopt black cats. She gets along so well with my doggies too

So I went over a Yellowjacket nest hidden in the grass while mowing the lawn. They did not like it. Needless to say I am in quite a bit of pain from multiple stings

Got my finger sliced up pretty good by one of the kittens. It was an accident, she totally didn't mean to, but man did it bleed!!

So some of you know that I have been fostering a pregnant cat, Cassie, for the last couple of weeks. What I haven't told anyone yet is that I also am fostering a pregnant dog, Priya. Both are from a Native American reservation with a huge overpopulation of dogs and cats, and both would have been killed if we hadn't rescued them. Well, as of yesterday afternoon, Priya is no longer pregnant! She gave birth to a healthy pack of NINE puppies!! 5 girls, 4 boys, and a rainbow of colors! I am over the moon happy for her, and am so excited to watch these little nuggets grow

I'm terrified of vampires, fyi

Eeeek!! I love the new event pokemon sooooo much! And the artwork is AMAZING!

I know it'll still be a couple weeks, but is anyone else super excited to see what new Halloween event pokes are released this year?

Thunderstorms thunderstorms in the sky,
Thundurus must be flying by

Severe thunderstorms are rumbling through with a tornado warning just south of here. I hope we don't get hit. Seeing two tornadoes is more than enough in one lifetime, I think

NOOOOOOOO! My shiny articuno!!!

The Retro Articuno fled...
