$350 for a big mixed breed? Ouch.They should be glad to get a home for it.

That's how most of the shelters/rescues are here. Most around the $350 or even $400 range, with some places even more, and they don't really go by size of the dog

Oh and also we don't really have very many strays and stuff here so most are imported up from the South so those fees usually also include the transport fees of getting them here and all that.

Although I do agree that the fees up here are outrageous.

Most places I think are between $250-$450

It's expensive to adopt a dog here too. It's one way of ensuring people are serious about looking after the animal at least. She's a cutie!

Morning folks Tiela, sorry about the work situation... Jae same for the washing machine and to both of you about weather.

Cap, I can't wait until I can really retire.

To try and explain why the above is messing with me, this is kind of my idea what a kitchen should look like:

The problem with the magazine and on line pics - no one can really live like that. The last time we painted/redecorated about 10 years ago - we took everything off the walls and really had no clutter. It was awesome for a minute or two. Personally I like fun things on walls/counters. But when there's visual overload it wears on us and makes us tired IMO.

Once your garden is perfected, then worry about the inside....or just spend more time outside and forget the clutter

She does that to me EVERY day, even when she is sick!!!!

x2 - I am constantly amazed at what Cap can do and that she actually does it.

he has gotten a lot older the last like year or two. :/

Gee, just like me

So who is ahead now? Any other contestants?

I think Bruce is ahead for sure ... but I haven't had time to get pics

I have to admit Bruce has topped the other entries. My camera isn't working so I'm out.But I truly think I could have won second prize otherwise. My stuff has stayed in the exact same place(s) for years. Three bedrooms full, dining room, plant room / etc.

Bathrooms one and one half- are fine, I know what room is the most important in a house.

Sounds like collections and not clutter to me

That's how most of the shelters/rescues are here. Most around the $350 or even $400 range, with some places even more, and they don't really go by size of the dog

Guess we have an abundance of unwanted pets around here, the cost is spading for about 70-80 $$. I do know a few folks involved in rescue, on fosters up to 50 dogs + cats and sends them by car or plan everywhere on the American continent. I've been amazed at how far she has sent them. Didn't even think about the transportation costs to y'all.

Good morning all! Cleaning for a living has made me nuts....that’s why I like that perfectly empty kitchen. I clean for someone my age that makes me want to cry. We get along great but her house is awful. My husband wants me to quit. I have not because her husband would probably have a nervous breakdown as he can’t take the mess and thanks me every time I come. I have 2 out of 16 that I could quit on.
