Being a Dog Mom

Being a dog mom is the most amazing and fun experience ever. Walking in and seeing my baby Makki always makes my day. He is my heart, my all and I don't know what I would do without him. With all of that being said being his mama is one of the most challenging things I've ever done.

There are days when no matter how much I play with him, how much love he gets, and knowing he has everything he needs that he just whines and cries for attention. I have to tell him to hush then and doing that and knowing that he just wants my attention hurts my heart.

There are other days when I think we are having the best progress with potty training and he knows to let me know when he wants to go out and I take him out and as soon as we get back in he potties on the floor.

We have days when he acts just like a toddler and doesn't want to listen to a thing I say and we spend more time in time out than having fun.

Makki has his own personality and he can be the sweetest, most loving and playful puppy and then he can be hard headed, rambunctious, and just sassy. Our story has been filled with lots of laughs, kisses, petting, treats, chew toys, and attitude and each day is an adventure.

When I got him I knew it would be hard but not as hard as it has been. I knew I'd give him all of the love he needs but I didn't expect to give him my heart I knew I'd have to buy him thins he'd require but I didn't know I would want to buy him more stuff all the time.

Being a do mom is a big responsibility and it isn't one I would change for the world. I love my sassy little man more than words can describe.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
