Hi guys, hello and good night. Welcome to Hello Just Function with Potterfria.

This is episode 129. Jesus Christ. And I have on a hoodie and I need to take it off and I have a shirt on that says happy pills and it's a pill bottle prescription pill bottle

spilling raccoons out. I said where did you get this fucking shirt? These are my happy pills. It's not. Can you sing or something while I take my sweat shirt off, please?

I'm going to tell you guys about chance. So our rescue. There's a thunderstorm in here right now you guys. So earlier last week, I'm lying at the end of last week. Friday, I took our rescue, Mark and I drove our rescue pup chance, the big old ears.

To us forever home, we met them in Fairfield and I only cried once, you know, the first one I cried like five times. So I cried once.

You got that on my shoulder right? Yeah, the first one. And I really wanted to keep chance because he attached to me so much so that when we brought him to meet his potential new family, I couldn't get out of the car with him.

Mark had to do it because he has tried to bite multiple people and grow. Wow. Over me like a good protector. So they and they were in love with him before they met him, but then when they met him, they fell in love with them.

So while Mark was talking to her husband, she came over and was talking to me. And you know, I was just telling her about his personality and his little characteristics and quirks and shit.

I was like, he's very quick with this tongue and he's going to try and shove it down your throat and what? Yeah, he likes to lick. But for real, he'll try and put in your mouth.

Yeah, he tries to and it's gross. Very weird. No, we're not doing that. So I was warning her like he saw a quick, like a little lizard with it. And I thought she was going to be like, oh my god, that's so gross or what she was like, that's totally fine. I already love him so much.

And I was like, this is the home for him. I guess so because I'd be like strapping back in your car. You could keep him. But yeah, it just seeing how much they were in love with him and telling us about the stuff they bought and the setup and everything. It felt really good. You know, that's cute. That was his forever home. So her and I had been texting back and forth on the way home.

And did you let her text you first? So listen, so she was texting me first. And I was responding. Don't harass that woman. And Mark goes, listen, you're not allowed to contact her unless she texts you first.

I was just going to say the same thing. And I was like, you're not the fucking boss of me. I'll fucking drop you off on the side of highway 80. No, you need to let them buy. I didn't text her anymore that night. I text her the next morning. And I just said,

don't need to bother you. I just wanted to see how the first night went. And she was great. She was like, she sent me a bunch of pictures. And she was like, we love him so much and blah, blah, blah. And I haven't texted her again. So all of you should be proud of me that I haven't called her or requested a face time.

It's hard. It's hard. Like the home that Doddy went to, you know, she was just out of the kindness of her heart sending me videos. And because I was really crying when she left. So she sent me videos and like kept up with texting me for like maybe three weeks or something. But then it stopped. Like it's going to stop. Yeah. And I was just now, I'm still so upset about it. That like, I want to know how she's doing and see how much bigger she got and stuff.

But at the same time, it's going to hurt my feeling. So it's kind of better that she doesn't. Yeah. Yeah. So the rescue contact in me and we get a new rescue pup. What is this? This is going to be a every week thing. Yes. I'm a foster mom. What? Who told you to sign up for this shit? I did. Oh my God. I thought it was like a one and done thing. Like a favor. Nope. No, you're like a registered foster parent. I am. So. So you're just cycling pups.

In and out of your house. Your facility. I am. And you know, it gets a little easier with each dog. It's so hard. You're not even a dog person. And that I'm not. It's so weird. Right. That's why I thought I could foster dogs and just be fine because my cats are queen. You know.

But you do. You become emotionally attached through little personalities and especially with chance because he hell of chose me as his person.

But the new puppy we're getting. Oh my God. It has the saddest backstory. So it's like a shepherd. Malinois mix. So it's going to be a big dog. A big fluffy dog.

He's kind of fluffy right now. Like a lot of hair. It depends on. I don't know if it takes more after the shepherd. I know that Malinois. Do you know what it looks like? Yeah. I have a photo. Okay.

So right now he's kind of fluffy. But it's a baby. Okay. He's the only surviving one out of his whole litter and his mother. Apparently they were attacked by coyotes. And he's the only one that made it.

He's a murder survivor. He's a fucking survivor. He has a story to tell. He might have some PTSD. And hello. You're in the right house. Do you have anxiety? Because I have anxiety. I'm late with me. Yeah.
