Nope Still Not Having Kid My Dachshund Is Allergic S T Shirt
Happy 84th birthday to my main idol my grandma mj my grandma is the strongest person I know I saw her be the provider of her family and run her own clothing store my whole life she s battled cancer and beat it twice and she always gives me the realest best advice she s probably the only person on this planet that I still remember their home number by heart lol my grandma has a Hot I don’t have kids my cat is allergic shirt sweater finsta so everyone leave nice comments wishing her a happy birthday. Gj guys but be careful vitality just gave insight about how to shutdown your top and mid lane although they didn’t execute it properly their strategy is just too good to counter your playstyle and other teams will take advantage from it. So this is going to be a bit long but bear with me I had what I believe to be a pointless and incredibly frustrating experience with the assistant manager jamie at your auburn hills great lakes crossing location today I have been coming here for three years I frequent your orlando san marcos and new jersey locations as well at least once a year when we stop we usually spend 5 to 10 thousand dollars on your products the system is simple I go in park in a corner and bring bins to my corner sort them bag them move them to the front register and repeat today I brought a personal duffel bag as it holds about 8 to 12 of your bags worth of stuff I get told that i’m not allowed to use it because it’s policy not a big deal at all I say okay i’ll do that for the rest rather than rebag all of this i’ll just go up in line and pay for it and it can sit behind the counter seems pretty reasonable to me nope I got obstructed suggested that I might be stealing something and not allowed to pass stating if I don’t want to follow the system I can leave he then takes my entire duffel dumps it onto the floor and then rebags it into victoria secret bags then moves it to the front counter so it can be rang in I thought this was a little odd but hey he was doing all the work rebagging it so whatever i’m like dude i’m going to be spending about 8k today all I want to do is come in spend some money get out without any drama what’s the problem whoevers in charge should be thrilled with a sale like this we’re spending 8k keep in mind that I told him that I would do what he wanted and it wasnt’ a big deal and the response was to the effect of stop being lippy and just listen I told him what do you want from me I just agreed with you and said I would use your bags i’m not being lippy at all I know this because I said okay dude not a problem i’ll use your bags his response was maybe if you get to buy it i’m like what are you suggesting that an 8 000 order is something you guys don’t want he’s like yeah if you buy it i’m like dude we are spending 8k today why would I bag up a bunch of stuff and spend 2 3 hours picking our your fabulous product to not buy it anyway so I had 4 credit cards one card had 2 000 one had 3500 one had 2000 and one had 1000 because I am buying for multiple people I had 4 different cards all in my name I wanted one receipt for each card not a big deal to me right wrong again he cited some policy and said if the order is more than 750 items that they aren’t allowed to ring in under 750 items on any one receipt id like to point out that that amount is higher than your employees said they could take as a cash payment I asked him to please show me that I would understand better if I could just read it he was willing to do so he brought out the policy book and to my surprise what it actually said was words to the afffect of cash payments cannot be split up or over 750 items I forget the second half my immediate reply was so what’s the big deal im using credit not cash he snatched the policy book away from me at that point and said you know what you can just listen to me or I don’t have to let you buy anything it’s up to my discretion I then called your orlando outlet and your new jersey outlet and talked to the store managers and cited your policy I was given I asked them to confirm if that was accurate and both said if it was a policy it was news to them I then asked if they would let me buy my order using 4 cards and 4 receipts the woman at orlando said oh my gosh yes we do that every single day I asked if I went to her store if I would have any trouble with this in the future and was told no then she said you can always come down here if you’re in the area and i’ll be happy to take your order after that phone call I tried again here’s the video of that attempt I said listen I have 4 credit cards your register girl said you told her she can’t ring up an order under 750 items that’s 3500 if it’s 5 items not all of my cards have that much I have done multiple receipts every time I came here heck I can even supply them to show it he tells me that because I am order so many items that I can’t have less tan 750 items per receipt so I point around to everyone else and ask what about everyone else you aren’t forcing them to spend a minimum of 750 items what about the final charge i’ll have 750 items for two tickets but the leftover isn’t going to be 750 items you’re not going to let me buy them he shrugged his shoulders to say no at this point I haven’t yelled ive been a bit snarky and sarcastic because I know he’s just giving me a hard time two people ring in our order almost every time I am up there and we were there 3 times in the last 6 months spent a bunch each time so at 730 8pm or so we are done shopping assuming that two people could ring us up ended up being a fantasy he forced one employee only to ring us up later on he comes up when its now close to 9pm and says hey you mind if we ring you up on both registers I chuckle and say no I don’t but you do you don’t want to be breaking that 750 rule do you he glared at me and then sent the employee away and walked off after blinking a few times I laugh because after telling me over and over he couldn’t do it he just got caught trying to do what should have been done to begin with a short while later after 9 I find out that everyone is standing uip front except for the one girl and another associate because none of the rest of them are allowed to help her ring us up the only two people left in the store with about 700 more items to be rang in if that’s not enough since it was a holidy all of these employees are apparently being paid overtime to stand around and wait at a bit after 10 all but two girls leave and one girl is waiting to count cash while the other girl sits and keeps ringing stuff in we apologize profusely we expected two employees to ring us up like always and timed our visit to be out around 9 if this had happened instead of having one literally stand there and watch her for 1 hour and 47 minutes after close we would have all been out on time and no overtime or extra hours spent so finally at 10 47 pm our orders are done we thank the lovely girl lauren and jasmine who got stuck staying 2 hours past close because a manager made up some random policy and had to double down when I pointed out he really needed to follow that 750 rule when he was going to toss another girl on the register if this is policy fine it doesn’t seem to be no manager at your other outlets knew what he was talking about the orlando one insisted that the only restrictions are on cash payments and verified I was paying cash or credit it’s a pretty humiliating experience to get hassled trying to buy panties and bras by someone who’s on some type of power trip the only thing I said sideways to him was that I flat out didn’t believe his policy and that credit absolutely is not the same as cash I didnt call him any names scream at him or did anything to disrupt the store beyond what you see in the videos if this is not policy i’d like an apology from that manager in person or over the phone admitting he was mistaken I would hope that the next time I go there I am not hassled but if not I guess there’s always orlando or new jersey who seem to be quite friendly I also want to give recognition to jasmine and lauren lauren is the poor soul who got stuck ringing everything in alone because of the manager’s silly rule and not allowing anyone to help because it would be in violation of the 750 item rule jasmine was the cash counter who had to wait until we were out of the store to count cash even more interesting is that I had a former employee with me helping me buy and she said she never heard of this policy either but it doesn’t mean it wasn’t added since she left she was just as confused because the manager spent over 30 minutes trying to explain and defend this when that time certainly would have been more efficiently spent doing productive things instead of hassling someone who literally sits in a corner and speaks to no one while sorting through your products one bin at a time id love a call back about this or to find out what exactly is going on ive never been hassled like this before and it was a little frustrating and very trying to keep my cool joe

Him... (Jake x MC)
So this is my attept at wrtiring a fanfic. It isn’t one with a happy ending as some might view it, but I think it is a more realistic series of events.
Summary
MC is pregnant with Jakes child but decides to not tell him. It comes back to haunt her when Jake shows up on her front door fives years after getting off the island.
5 months pregnant:
Mylife was flipped upside down the day I found out I was pregnant. It was my worst fear coming true. Being stuck on an island, yeah its fine I either get off it or die there. But having a child, becoming a mother is a nightmare. The father of this bastard child, Jake McKenzie. We had sex  when I invited him to my room when we all thought we were going to die. Only we didn’t die, well not all of us. We lost good people that day, one of which was my closest friend. We also travelled six months into the future that night. It has been 5 months since that night. Only a few people know that I’m pregnant. Michelle figured it out after I was showing all the tell tales signs such as morning sickness and after I turned down a shot of whiskey two nights in a row. Quinn found out a month ago when she walked in on me getting changed. But the one person who should know I can’t tell. He can’t know and he never can. He can’t be a father.
1 month after giving birth:
I gave birth to a beautiful little boy. He was as healthy and happy as I could have wished for. I have since got off the island, changed college’s and moved across the country. I didn’t stay in contact with anyone except the people who knew about my pregnancy. I am currently working part time and studyimg part time. I have been getting help with Diego.  I only have a few months left of school so as much as i want to be a parent I need to think about keeping us afloat. I haven’t heard from Jake since we left La Huerta. I was six months pregnant and he had to stay in Costa Rica. I am glad he doesn’t know. It would destroy him if he knew he had a son who’s life he couldn’t be apart of.
5 year’s later:
It’s been all over the news. “Jake McKenzie, a wanted man was found innocent of all charges. The man who did indeed commit these crimes is now behind bars…” I was glad Diego was at school when this came on tv becuase I cried when I saw the footage of Jake walking out of the court house a free man. I could feel my heart racing. I didnt know what to think or do. But I realised, although I didn’t want to, I couldn’t reach out. Jake wouldn’t even remember me most likely and he had finally been given the chance to have a life. I couldn’t intefere with his happiness and I couldn’t let him ruin mine. I had built a stable environment for Diego and myself. I wasn’t going to mess with my child’s life. He had grown up from the beginning without a dad and it had to stay that way. I am not going to mess with him by introducing a man who would never stay around. Jake would never stay, he doesn’t know responsibility and what it means to have commitments. I am putting my child first and looking out for Jake. This is what is best.
1 week later…
“Diego?! What are you doing?! You’re going to be late for school?!”
*knock, knock, knock*
“Okay Diego I am not going to yell all day. Get dressed and come down stairs we need to leave in 5 minutes!”
“Okay mum!”
*knock, knock, knock*
“Okay, okay, I’m coming. Jesus, why can’t you just use your key, this is why I gave it to you Katie!”
This is when I opend the door and saw him…
“Hey, Princess.”
“Shit.”
“Looks like you’ve had a busy morning. Sorry to show up out of the blue like this but I think we need to talk.”
My heart was pounding so fast I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I knew I had to get rid of him. I couldn’t have Jake see Diego. He couldnt know.
“Jake, it’s great to see you and all but this is really a bad time. Maybe you could come back in a ho-”
“ Mum, I can’t find my hat!”
Shit. This can’t happen.
“Diego I have it here. Get your bag then we have to leave!”
“Mum?”
Jake looked at me with a puzzled expression with also a hint of sadness and anger.
“Yeah. A lots changed since we parted ways. That tends to happen when people don’t talk for 5 years.”
“Hey MC. Sorry I’m late.
“I accidently slept in.”
“Oh hey Katie. Look can you just take Diego to school. I’m not feeling up to going into the office today.”
“Yeah, sure”
Diego walked up to me and gave me a wave as he ran out of the house. He was a very active boy. He mostly took after me in looks with olive skin, dark brown hair, and eyes. Although he did have his fathers strong bone structure.
“Bye Mum! Seen you after school!”
“Bye sweetie, make sure you eat all of you food. I’ll see you when I pick you up.”
When they had left I could see Jake doing the math in his head. I motioned with my arm for him to enter and I closed the door after him.
“So… what did you want to talk about?”
I sat down on the couch an Jake sat down next to me. I could see he was looking for the right words to say. We had gotten close on La Huerta. He opend up to me and I to him. But after I lost Diego and fell pregnant I pulled away. Not completely straight away. Jake comforted me when I was upset and depressed. He understood what I was going through but when I found out I was pregnant and I didnt want him to know I started spending more and more time alone. He didn’t think it was anything did wrong he just thought I was upset from loosing my best friend. We were like that for the last two months on the island since I only learned of my pregnancy when I was already three months along.
“I’ve missed you”
I was snapped back into the present with those words. I cared for him deeply. I may not have told him at the time but I loved him. When I didnt want to be with the group I was with him and we would talk. That was towards the end of our time on the island. When I wasn’t so noticeably pregnant we didn’t exactly talk…
“I don’t know what to say to that.”
“MC, I was in love with you on that island and I never said it but now that I’m a free man I wanted to see if we could pick up where we left off.”
“Jake-”
“I’m sorry for springing this on you. I can see now that you obviously moved on.  I guess it was naive of me to think you hadn’t settled down with someone. So is Stevd Rogers the father?”
“Jake there was nothing between me and Sean, and even though it isn’t any of your buisness I never moved on permanently. Things never go past the first date with me. Its hard trying to be a single mother and find time for dating.”
“So how olds your son? What’s he like?”
“Diego is five. He is the most energetic five year old. He can be pain in the ass when he doesn’t listen and tends to speak his mind very freely especially in the class room, but I love it. I love my little rebel.”
“MC?”
“Yes Jake.”
“Who’s his father? I don’t meant to be forward, and I don’t want to pry but we were together and-”
“Jake, your not his father.”
I can’t believe I just lied but he can’t know. I can see the sadness in Jakes eyes. He wanted to be the father. I feel like crying for doing this but I need to think of whats best for Diego. Which is a life without Jake.
“Oh, I see. I guess thats for the best, I’m not exactly father material.”
“Jake you’ll make a wonderful father. You are going to meet a wonderul woman and you will settle down and have a beautiful family. I have no doubt that you will be a terrific father and your child will love you with all their heart.”
I felt sick saying it. He would be a great dad just not to Diego. Jake has already missed five years and I just don’t want for this to disrupt his childhood.
“I already met a wonderful woman and she had a kid with another man. I came here becuase I wanted to try and see if we could reclaim what we had, but I see now that you moved on. You clearly don’t have the time to try this and I don’t want to get in the way of you and your son.”
“Jake you are the only man that I have ever loved. I may not be able to explore that love the same way we did all those years ago but maybe we can reclaim some of what we had. Like the way we used to talk and support each other. Anyway you have a lot going on now with settling into a civilian life that doesn’t involve being on the run. You need time to adjust and I am here for you if you need any help.”
“Thanks princess. So whats life like for you now, besides the kid?
So we sat there all morning and afternoon just talking and recalling old times. It was great, as if no time had past between us at all.
“Do you remember that night when we lost Diego?”
I looked up at Jake. Recalling the events of that night was a mixture of all kinds of emotions. It was the night me and Jake made love for the first time, an amazing memory. Then on the other hand not even 24 hours later I lost my best friend.
“Yeah, I rememeber. It was the night you saved all of us.”
“I remember it as the night Diego saved me. Thats why I named my son after him.   Diego Lucas __________.”
“Lucas?”
“For the other man who saved me and loved me.”
We looked at each other. My heart started racing like it used too, that old feeling of flush and wanting started flowing through me.
“I’m honored.”
He looked at me like all those times before. He rested his hand on my leg after moving closer. We slowly closed the gap until our lips were barely touching. I closed my eyes and he moved in pressing  his lips against my. I could feel his need and longing within the kiss. I let myself go, and fell into the kiss. But just as I did my phone started ringing. I quickly pulled away and answered the phone.
“MC speaking”
“Um hi, this is Mary-Anne from your sons school. He’s been sitting in the office now for 15 minutes, I was just wondering when I should expect for him to be picked up.”
“Oh god, I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
I look back over to Jake whose looking at a picture of Diego and myself on his second birthday I keep on display.
“Sorry for doing this but I have to leave. It seems I lost track of time but I have to go and pick up Diego.”
“Yeah I understand. He’s a cute kid, I wonder where he got his good looks from.” I playfully punch him in the arm.
“Look I’ll let you go pick up your kid. About that kiss. I’m sorry, I know you don’t have the time to be in a relationship like that, but I hope we can still catch up soon.”
“Yeah, I’d like that. I have to go like right now. It was great seeing you.”
I turned around and walked him out the door. After exchanging numbers and saying our goodbyes I left and picked up my son.
That night when I layed in my bed I was wondering if I had made the right decision. I don’t know if I did now. But I did what I did and is something I will have to live with. I know that Jake would be great with Diego, and he would be a great male role model. I just don’t want to mess with my childs happiness. A childs mind is a delicate thing, and the fact that it has been just him and myself, I don’t want to ruin our own system. We are great together, he goes to school, and I to work. We have so many good times together. But if I did tell Jake and Diego the truth, they would both know I lied and I could lose all that I worked for. But that’s not the main issue, Diego would find out he does have that parent he always wanted, but what if Jake doesn’t live up to expectations, or doesn’t put Dieo first like a father should, it would break him and I won’t do that to my child. Jake doesn’t know what it is to be a parent, and he could learn, but he has a life he needs to reclaim and being a parent would make things difficult and I don’t know if it could work at this time. Maybe in the future when Diegos older. But for now, they can’t know, no one can know.

8 Ways ‘Dry January’ Can Kickstart Your Entire Year Of Fitness
This year, many people will conjure up some preposterous and unattainable New Years resolutions.
While these types of goals are, in essence, a terrific notion, they are oftentimes abandonedbefore the month of January is even over.
But dont fret. New Years decides are, in fact, realistic, if given goals are attainable and take place within babe steps.
A common resolve is to give up an addictive element, whether its cigarettes, coffee or booze.
Start by viewing your solvings as obtainable goals.
Initially, it seems like a great mind to consider long-term about giving up an addictive substance. However, an superb starting point shall participate in Dry January.
The concept of Dry January is simple. You can have no alcohol the whole month of January.
Thats 31 days without any liquor. That isnt so long, right? Well, that depends on your personal tier of overconsumption and the duration of age youve been binge-drinking.
For me, my first stab at Dry January was last year.
While I was successful at get the entire month of January without a descent of alcohol, I cant say it was easy.
Honestly, “its one” of the most difficult things Ive ever done in my bloom, young adult life.
I noticed numerous side effects of discontinuing booze cold turkey, and they will likely be experienced by most people taking on Dry January TAGEND
1. Withdrawals are real.
About 17. 6 million Americans abuse alcohol or depend to the substance.
Thats the equivalent of about one in every 12 adults.
Even if you dont think you are quite at the point of alcoholism, the first two weeks of discontinuing sucking can be amazingly challenging: both physically and mentally.
While alcoholism has never absolutely taken over “peoples lives”, Id be lying if I said I didnt have at least a few beers most evenings.
This is not scandalous. Its a way I undo after a hard day of work.
But this had the health risks to become problematic in the long run.
Its not easy to watch your friends around you suck while youre trying not to.
Every time you transfer a brewery or a table, your intelligence will likely debate finish and grabbing a quick drink.
The same can be said about going past the brew cool or wine area while at the grocery store.
We all have our special frailties, and thats okay.
We have libidoes. When those are put on the back burner, many beings suffer withdrawal symptoms.
The following are some common withdrawal evidences TAGEND
– Elevated temperature
– Increased blood pressure, inhaling frequency and pulse
– Excessive sweating
– Tremors
– Anxiety and depression
– Declined energy and metabolism
– Sorrows of invasion or hostility
– Declined sexual pastime or function
– Sleep disruption and nightmares
These symptoms are typically simply present for a maximum period of a few weeks.
Many of these effects flip-flop tenfold once the body and recollection are cozy performing without any alcohol.
2. You’ll have better sleep.
While insomnia may be an initial side effect of discontinuing drinking, sleep tone generally substantially increases in the long run.
An in-depth critique of 27 plausible examines found that while booze can initially generate people to fall asleep rapidly and deep, it drastically affects sleep caliber after that initial restful span.
It may be a challenge to fall asleep dispassionate at first, but the improved rank of sleep you get from not falling asleep wino leaves you much more rested than ever before.
3. You’ll find a clearer complexion.
Westlake Dermatology points out some largely negative impacts alcohol consumption has on skin caliber and longevity of young-looking skin.
Alcohol, especially in excessive sums, affects skin health because it induces dehydration and blood vessel dilation.
In cases of pre-existing skin conditions such as rosacea and psoriasis, drinking booze can cause flare ups and other complications.
4. There will be a noticeable lift in your bank account.
For me, this was hands down the best part of discontinuing drinking.
I was blown away by how much additional money I had after I discontinue hitting the bottle so often. I saved the thousands of dollars every paycheck.
The thing is, while I dont consider myself to be a downtown buff or rail regular, I do have one expensive evil: I utterly enjoy plane beer.
As most people know, that doesnt come cheap.
Even though I generally buy beer from accumulations and avoid paying additional cost the bar incident presents, I was downing at least a six-pack of workmanship brew a nighttime during my peak.
I was expending $10 a night on brew on average if I restriction myself to a six-pack.
Thats a very considerable amount of money. It’s approximately how much I normally spend on food every day.
I was investing hundreds of dollars a month on beer.
When I cut that expense out of my life, I was merrily surprised by how much fund I had.
5. You will lose weight.
Drinking oftentimes comes at a price, to its implementation of caloric intake.
Most alcoholic drink have hundreds of calories, and can contain a lot of gluten and other unhealthy ingredients.
When a multitude of boozes are exhausted, the calories can quickly stack up.
These calories — paired with the phenomenon of “drunk munchies” — can result in much more consumption than planned.
If youre strange about how many calories you drink in a nighttime, apply this handy alcohol calorie calculator after a nighttime of drinking.
6. Your liver will love you.
Its pretty much common knowledge that booze is filtered through the human rights liver.
Its the supernatural organ that represents going drunk possible and safe, as it handles our alcoholic tendencies.
However, too much booze is particularly coarse on the liver, and forces-out it to produce a noxious enzyme called acetaldehyde. This enzyme shatterings liver cells, and can even effect permanent scarring in some cases.
Furthermore, fatty liver sicknes is caused by overconsumption of alcohol. This is a serious matter.
Fatty liver can cause a plethora of questions, including inflammation of their own bodies and pre-diabetes. It can even put you at a larger hazard of having a heart attack.
When those with fatty liver illnes quit booze, the liver fatty lessens to an average of15 percentage, with some participants failing up to 20 percent.
7. Your productivity will skyrocket.
It may seem like common sense that restraint undue drinking and all the attributed byproducts( late nights out, hangovers, etc) will liken to more productive days.
However, its pretty staggering just how far a proper sleep planned and a fully sober judgment will get you during your work week.
I started a new role undertaking last year while I was experimenting with Dry January for the first time, and Ive never appeared such instantaneous success in the workplace.
Its like I became a most robust, sharper version of myself.
In addition to not drinking, I took other productivity gratuities to heart. I began to hold myself much more accountable in the workplace.
This gave me a big boost in confidence.
8. Your hangovers cease to exist.
This last one is definitely obvious.
But simply should be considered how much better youll detect and how much additional era youll have if “youve never” have to face a harsh hangover again.
Personally, I think back to some examples of hangovers from my life.
I have invested full epoches on the shower flooring in unrelenting pain.
Those hangovers that seem to last-place for days are on par with food poisoning and the stomach flu.
The all-day-hangover lifestyle is not a glamorous one. Rather, it is a nauseating one.
Although we are already well into the first week of January, its not too late to experiment with starting a month without alcohol.
Consider taking a break from your binge-drinking.
If you find these efforts to be worthwhile, upright your experience in the comments part of this article.
