House of Frankenstein (1944) dir. Erle C. Kenton
After having such an awful relapse with my chronic health issues I almost spaced on the fact that Wednesday the 25th will mark 9 years since I began my journey out of active addiction.
I honestly couldn’t see myself living another 9 years back in 2013. I was malnourished, scared, abused. It didn’t even immediately help my life, instead I’m still picking up the piece of a 4 year long psychotic break, C-PTSD, and dealing with the fact that someone has forever changed my face by breaking it. There’s been several times in 9 years where a few lines could really of done the trick , “helped” me to cope in that moment, but long term there was no life like that. It’s strange to say that maybe all of that can be worth it to be on the right path to finding your weld again.
If you are struggling with an addiction right now, REACH OUT FOR HELP. If you’re likely to go into withdrawals ask for the help of your GP, if they’re judgmental; ask for a new one until you find someone who is empathetic. Reach out to someone you know who is in active recovery.

I’ve wanted a proper Hollywood mirror since I was a little kid so this feels like an achievement, I’ve also never spent anywhere near this much on a mirror before.
- My work outs are showing.
- I finally have a small amount of money to enjoy
- I finally had my dental surgery.
Finally feeling a bit more in control of life
Sometimes it’s hard to not think there must be something fundamentally wrong with me that I continually end up in situations where people feels it’s valid to feel the need to tear my confidence apart

Dumdum jail for when dumdum can’t behave at work
I got a doggy carrier handbag so I could take my nervous dog ~ and ~ my happy go lucky dog more places on public transport whilst the car is broken down, it was only supposed to be a part time thing
... however I think Beau has other ideas, never seen this nervous wreck of a dog look so content and smug. RIP my already disabled body, let’s hope the work out regiment has paid off enough to pull this off

10 REASONS TO ADOPT A PET
- You save a life.
- The cost of adoption is less than buying a pet.
- Most shelter animals have had medical treatment and are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date with vaccines.
- There are more unique pets to choose from in shelters. Age, breeds, mixed breeds, and personality choices are greater.
- Many are already trained.
- Your bed is pre-warmed on cold winter nights.
- Animals are just ready to love you, no matter what.
- Adopting from a shelter opens a cage for another pet who needs a new forever home.
- An adult pet takes the guess work out of determining size, thickness of coat, and energy level.
- Mixed breeds are unique compared to purebreeds and may have less genetically inherited health problems.
Please adopt some lovely doggos
As someone who just adopted a third doggo from the shelter, please do it if you can find a dog right for you. Those shelters do everything they can to keep them alive, but it’s a family that keeps them happy.
Okay, but is there a quiz for which shelter kitty I should get?
@deigns good u asked, yes!!! sorry I forgot to add that one, anyway here is it

Plus? Those animals in the pound? They KNOW that they are on death row. My first dog as a married woman was an eleventh hour adoption. A 13-y-o basset hound mix (pound said they thought he was 11 because they were trying to save him by making him sound a teeny bit younger) and he was “Til death do we part” loyal. We lost him 4 years later to cancer, and we (the family had grown from 2 to 3 humans) were devastated.
My sister? Fosters cats, and ended up with a charmer who’d been hit by a car. Sephiroth is a well loved asshole, and his brother, Cloud (a stray who found a sucker bet), is almost canine levels of friendly.
Be a superhero. Save a life. Rescue.

As a side note, if you’re really dead set on a particular breed you can always try looking up a rescue organization for that specific breed. That’s how we managed to adopt a 1yo purebred italian greyhound–he had been abused by his first owner without the breeder’s knowledge, then shuffled around to a few homes before he finally got picked up by a greyhound rescue, and then came to us. He never 100% recovered his confidence and was an anxious dog most of his life, but he was a VERY happy dog who loved to snuggle and stared up at you with these big stupid doe eyes and ran around in circles when you let him out in the yard. I think every dog I’ve ever had was either from a rescue organization or a pound, and they’re incredible animals.
Please adopt cats too💜
Posting in hopes someone adopts my cat i had to surrender recently 😭🤞

my adopted baby
he was 10 years old and in the shelter because his human had passed away
he’s 12 now and the clingiest, sweetest boy who sits like a doofus, purrs nonstop and adores belly rubs

Honestly adopting this little 10yo lady was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I emailed the shelter during lockdown with details about my home life, house, work pattern etc and they choose a cat that would work for me. They were 100% right, she’s perfect! ❤️
adopted both my bbs and i love them so much 😭
Both adopted, both amazing !!
My two little adoptees ages 8 & 9
They were terrified and less than trained a year ago. Today they’re super responsive little beans who have taken on training amazingly. Age doesn’t mean a thing, you definitely can teach an old dog new tricks.
All the work I’ve put in has been worth it and more. They even treat my cat like their annoying little brother (he adores them) and it’s the cutest shit ever
