My brother's family adopted a new puppy some months ago, but haven't really put the effort in outdoor training her. It's been annoying me how much they get pissed at her for having accidents indoors so I took the initiative to train her. It's been going really well! She was too scared to go down the stairs just a few weeks ago and now she's practically skipping each step! She goes to the bathroom whenever I take her out now; though, I do have to sit out there and wait for her to do her business. She won't step off the porch unless I'm out there within sight of her haha. Just makes me happy as I never really took responsibility with training the family dog growing up, and I can see how all the attention has been effecting the puppy. She gets so excited whenever she hears me coming, always wanting to play and follow me around... whatever the pet equivalent of baby fever is, I'm feeling it (a friend argued that she's basically my dog at this point though hahaha).
I’ve been accepted into two wild bird rehab programs. One is for raptors/birds of prey. The other one is a rehab for small birds and wild songbirds. I am a little bit overwhelmed with the decision of having to pick which one I want to go with, but Im just so happy and grateful to have two opportunities to help rehab and educate others on these amazing species. It just fills my heart so much to be able to help save these animals, as animals have saved me so many times. 
I slept a lot this weekend which felt good. It’s rare I can have a full two lazy days before getting back to the office. 
I got a couple shipments in that i’ve been waiting for. So many fun things. 
I’ve had a few good low anxiety days and have been able to really relax and focus on my hobbies.
