Today was a great day. It started out with me being quite a bundle of nerves. I had to make several phone calls to the family of a child abuse case in order to meet with them. This was nerve racking because this is my very first case. Although I only got in touch with two of the family members, they both were extremely nice and excused my nervousness. After, my morning phone calls I had to head to school in order to begin my first class of the semester. After that class, I was mildly annoyed due to the fact that I have to give a lengthy presentation and I only have week in which to do it. It’s not a difficult task but it is time consuming. So after those two challenges everything is looking up and is going to be a good semester.

Dogs are the most faithful companions mankind has ever known.  Their love is unconditional and they bring joy into our lives.  Many people go to bed at night with their canine companions taking up a large portion of the bed, and this is perfectly acceptable to all parties involved.  However, as dogs get older, the leap onto the bed gets more difficult.  Some people get small steps for the dog to climb up to get on the bed.  Other people spring for an over-sized orthopedic dog bed for their furry four-legged friend.  Orthopedic dog beds can offer support and comfort for an aging dog.  They still have the luxury of sleeping on a bed, but they don’t have to jump, and they don’t have to share it with anyone.

I am a guitarist, and as a guitarist I constantly strive to achieve greater playing ability as I hear the plethora of amazing guitarists touring stages all across the world. I began playing classical guitar at age nine and continued to play for the next ten years. My talent grew along with my repertoire, and the word “prodigy” was thrown around often. Later in my guitar playing career I expanded my playing style to include electric and acoustic guitar. Many people don’t understand the difference between acoustic and classical guitar so I’ll explain: a classical guitar uses nylon strings for the three highest pitched strings (G, B, and e) and the width of the neck is 2 inches as opposed to an acoustic guitar which features entirely steel strings and a neck width of 1 and 7/8ths inches. Now, as a songwriter and guitarist, I’ve honed in my skills largely on the acoustic guitar and try my best to emulate my biggest guitar hero Michael Hedges.

Under the lens of the pets, the animal which is considered to be the friend of mankind is dog.  Dogs are treated as a play friend for kids. They normally have a good relationship and admiration towards dogs. There are several breeds of dogs found in the animal kingdom. These include the exotic and indigenous breeds. Some are exceptionally for home breeding and some are used for trapping or tracing culprits. As dogs have the best smelling capacity, it finds a good arena in the police department for tracing thieves. These types of skilled dogs are called as the sniffer. Normally, kids take the job of maintaining the health of dogs by giving bath or wounding the dog collars for its safety. Dogs do the work of security personnel during night hours. There are many types of orthopedic dog beds used for disabled or aging dogs as a support and comfort.

As a stay at home mom to a busy toddler, my day is often a blur of two word sentences, diaper changes, nursing marathons, and the endless array of books, puzzles, and other playtime favorites. Once in awhile, I might even get a break if my toddler decides to nap. Here is an abbreviated version of my typical day: wake up, nurse toddler, change a diaper. Make coffee, breakfast; clean anything that didn’t get cleaned the night before. Feed toddler, husband and self while skimming my bookmarked sites. Clean up breakfast, toddler, and self before husband leaves for work. Play with toddler (current playtime favorites are kitchen, books, golf, and cat). Intercept toddler from hitting the cat. Nurse, give toddler a snack, sneaks a peek at email. Nurse toddler to sleep and do the slow creep off the bed, hoping for some downtime. During said downtime, start laundry, do normal household tasks (plan dinner, pay bills, vacuum, etc.), sneak another peek at favorite sites. After toddler wakes up, continue ad nausea, adding dinner, other fun activities, more cleaning/diapers/kissing booboos/saving cat/etc. It’s all worth it though! I’d rather live this hectic life than drop my baby off with someone and never know how they were spending their day.
