Noticed our front driver side tire this am is starting to show cordage around the perimeter. Hopefully it makes it until our appt Monday am at Theisens. I dunno how I didn't notice it before.
 
So I have a friend on FB that's an anti-vaxxer, and she's this way through personal experience with one of her children. Her brother, who I'm also friends with on FB, is also anti-vaxxer.

The brother just posted a selfie with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.

Volleyball exciting. If I told anyone watching where we are sitting, pretty sure we would be in the background of the broadcast. Line for Clone Cones was ridiculous.
 
So my SIL and BIL went and got the Aussies today. Brought them straight to a family friends sons birthday party without asking. Thankfully the hosts asked them to leave.

They just posted pics of them on FB. An aunt asked how they get along with the it other dog. BIL responds with "We got rid of her!"

They are making it hard for me to ever want to talk to them again.

All of it is pretty bad, but seriously? **** those ********. On the plus side, if the dog get's adopted it'll be in a much better home. (Sorry wx. I'm just assuming that based on what you said.)

Oh the dog is in a better home alright.

As my wonderful RT family please let me know if I am over reacting but they are making it hard for me to keep my mouth shut anymore.

Sometimes people just need to be told the truth, if they don't like it or ignore it, it's not your fault.

My mom is going through some family feuding with her 2 SILs and one brother over my grandparents affairs. The 2 SILs want to control everything, which is asinine. They're not blood. Thankfully there is very little property to split up. My mom wants to tell them all off. She has restrained herself, but it gets harder everyday.

My salad bowl was in the dishwasher but not cleaned. I took it out, made my salad, and put it in the sink.

Now my wife informs me the bowl was scrubbed out with the nasty dish scrubber and then put in the dishwasher. So my anxiety has me thinking I'm gonna get some nasty bacterial infection in my gut.

My throat is all scratchy just thinking about it.

I think you're fine. I don't understand why you'd get new replacement dogs if you already have a dog.

and not to be too morbid but, dogs don't last for a super long time, so if you want that type of dog, just wait until your first one passes away. Or just make sure they get along

I'm sure you'll be fine, but after it all turns out ok, can you use it to get sessy times?

They sound awful, I don't think you are overreacting. My husband would flip out if someone brought dogs (and unknown dogs at that, obviously they were new to your relatives today) to our house.
 
My old roommate spent $2000 on two husky puppies, despite working full time at same job as me and as a part time fire fighter on the side. I told him he should start with one and go from there, his parents and sister told hike the same thing. He got both. I love dogs and grew up with a great black lab so I just figured it would be crappy for awhile but nice once they and we adjusted. He took the first one back two nights later, it was severely over anxious and would pee the carpet if you entered the room without someone else already in there. The smaller pup really took a liking to me as my roommate had multiple fire shifts that first week. We tried numerous things to get it to be more affectionate towards him but it just didn't work. He took it back to the breeder a week later.

TLDR, my roommate paid $2k to rent a dog for a week.

I don't think you're over reacting, and I'm far from immune to criticism on the subject of over reacting, but I try to remind myself to speak the truth in love. It's hard...very hard...and I'm still a young padawan in actually doing it. The 'nice, polite' midwesterners tend to withhold speaking the truth until they can't handle it anymore, then when they do it, they don't do it in love. I probably waver between that and just speaking my mind without a filter. Also, a strategy employed by counselors is to use 'I feel' statements. "when you are randomly borrowing money from our parents and then go and spend money frivolously, it makes me feel like you aren't being responsible" is a better starting point than "you are a worthless, spoiled brat".

I'd have no problem telling them they're pieces of **** and have no right owning pets. But, my passion for animals have really been more than documented here.
