    No, mom, the Obama's did not change the name of the White House Christmas tree to Holiday Tree.
    And this is easily dispelled by a simple google search.

    Stop being "those" people.
    Wait, you mean everything on the internet isn't a true fact?! Oh my bubble. It is now burst ::

      10 month old cries every time I walk past her and don't pick her up. Makes me want to just hide from her!

            Playcare- one of my daycare parents are HORRIFIED that our POOR DOG is home all day most of the time (he does attend doggie daycare 2 days/week, but that's for socialization)

            He has a fenced in yard and a dog door. He has his bed, tons of toys both indoor and out, food and water, etc. They 'feel bad for him'

            They pay $150/week for their dog to attend doggie daycare FT. $50 less than my rates.

            Seriously thinking about opening a dog daycare in our new home. I would LOVE to play with 6-8 dogs all day and get paid what I do now. Their dog daycare and the one we send our dog to is ALWAYS full.

              Wait- doggie daycare is a real thing? Not for vacations or absences like a kennel but an actual daycare for dogs while people are at work?????? I'm not even sure which of the smilies to use: :: or

                There's one in our town (and our town is small). Actually there might be two. It's full of dogs whose owners are gone 9+ hours/day at work.

                There's also quite a few kennels for extended stays.

                I think a doggy daycare would be a lucrative business. But I imagine it would have it's fair share of issues with the parents. ::

                  It may not be snowing but all I keep getting are flakes...
                  Always the day of too. So I get all excited, packed and planned...only to POOF!

                  It feels like the world just keeps slapping it out of my hands, just as I think I grab it.

                    I have often thought of doggie daycare...but there are regulations still. I have a friend who owns one.

                        I just can't do babies under 6 months anymore. And until early Feb, when this baby is 6 months old, I will probably post every week here. Held ALL the time at home. I was this parent :: DS didn't go to daycare until 8 months though. But yeah...quite the transition. His first dcp probably posted here about me

                          Oh I'm not talking snow, I meant people being flakes....
                          Was to be a play on words but wow did that fail.::

                          Parents keep canceling on me, often on the day of. I can't help but take it personally.

                              We have one near our house. Their rates are just about the same as mine I have thought a little being a god walker. My dad pays $15 an hour for a walk and some play time for his dog everyday. And if you get a few dogs in the same neighborhood you could double up!

                                On Monday my 2 yo dcb came in with a cold and sneezed *right in my face*
                                On Wednesday morning, my throat started getting the tickle. By the evening, my nose was both stuffy and running, and I was sneezing. The sinus headache I have with it has also been a blast.
