Homeward Bound

Here's Ivy having fun with a chew toy. She was laying on her back with it in her mouth and one ear flopped and it was so cute! But I've learned dogs are harder than cats to get them to stay in a pose. Their mom comes home this morning, and while I have had so much fun with them, I am ready to live full time at my apartment again. My girls miss me, I miss them and man is my apartment a mess! I've barely been there! I guess it's because I've been dropping stuff off and not putting it away, and when I'm actually home I take the time to put things away.
I also start yet another new job today! The other job didn't work out. What the job described in the ad versus what the job actually required were two very different things. And the ad promised benefits which was a lie. Even though it was full time. But somehow the little mom and pop places get away with having full time employees and offering no benefits. I've dealt with it my whole life. Anyway, I applied at a grocery store near Daisy and Ivy's home and I got hired and start today! It's obviously not my dream, but I can handle it without wanting to get blackout drunk every night to deal with my misery and that's what matters most to me. So once again wish me luck!

I've mentioned a million times that I don't buy packaged hummus because A) it's so pricey, and so cheap and quick to make yourself, and B) my apartment doesn't have a recycling bin so I try to stay away from plastic tubs as much as possible. But, I use these containers for food for the stray kitties, and Trader Joe's sriracha hummus is soooooo good, and it's a steal at $1.99 a package.  It might sound weird, but I love hummus with rice. So, I baked some tofu with teriyaki sauce and served it with rice and a dollop of the hummus. Drizzled with sriracha of course. This was so delicious and hit that sweet spot!
I'm off to take the girls for a walk in the rain. Today is cool and rainy, it's giving me Seattle vibes. Days like this always remind me of Seattle and make me feel homesick. Anyway, off to walk these girls and then back home to clean my apartment and spend some quality time with my girls!
Happy Tuesday!
