Nowhereville, WV. I imagine my WORK address would take a very dim view of such a package. LOL.
It's just gonna have to go with me with the fridge and the dang power converter. WE OWN A DAMN TRAILER MAN the husband has a hitch and everything but he left it at the house because the wheels are not highway rated, and like, well.... He KNOWS he is getting a truck soon. I am going to have to trade in my BELOVED Mazda which he RUINED anyway and drive his horrific, old annoying Subaru which DOES have 4 wheel drive and I HATE. I don't want a dang truck and I have ENOUGH trouble not HITTING things ANYWAY.
I would LOVE that but we ALREADY are TOTALLY broke and my mom is going to help us with the move I imagine she would take a SUPREMELY dim view of that.

Dude, I don't know whether to be offended or complimented by that, and I can't see HOW they would know which freaking RV space it would be other than the one by the outhouse I guess.
I feel bad for even considering euthanizing my son's dog so I wouldn't even have to DEAL with the pet issue that is the MAIN ISSUE.
I would totally LIE but I don't see that going over so well. I guess I could shove him in my shirt and when he writhed, yelped, an stuff I could say I was pregnant and my baby was 'very active' and I was fairly sure it was going to be a gymnast or a COW herder. Something.

Oh. My. God.
I cannot EVEN imagine explaining that to the kid. Especially knowing it had been purposeful.
@AstroTurf you got problems. I mean *I* have problems but your solutions to my problems are problematic.

Well I talked to the husband (who was horrified when I even mentioned the idea of pet-ricide via nicotine overdose he was like, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU." I was like, "But I have too much nic and I need it all! I LOVE the dog but the nic was like WAY MORE EXPENSIVE")
Anyway this led to a discussion of freezers that you can plug right into your car (and other places) and they sound super useful for trips to like Costco or whatever and he is going to buy me one of the necessary size in return for not killing the dog, who will always and forever remain the kid's dog, never has a dog gotten more excited to see a kid) but has been thoroughly adopted by Mr. :A and sometimes I wonder if he loves the dog more than me, but he was like, "Act like a human, wife, and I will present you with your very own nic freezer!"
That is why I let him into my yoga pants, he's not HORRIBLE and I am HORRIBLE enough. Plus well, I don't want to say too much. LOL.

There's always the old heavy duty zip tie way too tight collar dealio that can hasten the inevitable...
The dog is not DYING!!!!! JESUS!!!
Do you all think I am some kind of mafia hit person masquerading as a social worker?
To be fair, my sis took GREAT pleasure in sending me an announcement that my new VA place well a chick just GOT ARRESTED for like murdering 9 vets by a HUGE dose of insulin. She wasn't even like suppose to have ACCESS to meds.
My sis was gloating too, she was mad because she let her 13 year old kid go "protest" with "black lives matter" and I told her she was the worst parent in the world, sort of nicer but not really. She really does suck as a parent. I got the mom gene from my mom (it is why I could only have one kid my mom did not have much "mom" in her) and my sis got the "workaholic" gene. I mean, her kids have to set "dates" with her like lunch dates to see her and crud. Yeah she has a demanding job but she also RUNS MARATHONS.
So she was snitty about that. I emailed back like, "I was hoping to be the calm and collected and not crazy kook at my new job, thanks for that Instagram I would never have known how easy it would be."
Then she sent me the "Low bar for your new unemployment" and I sent her a text that said, "T, I love you, your family, and we are all just going to be JUST fine regardless of social conditions."
She has not responded because you can't be like, "Yeah, I don't think so, dumb social work twit."
LOL so if I AM secretly in the mafia though I am going to like, the right place.
A solution has been like, found. ONLY if that were the only nic on earth and I could not like have it EVER and I had to weigh the like, life time remaining (even in dog years probably less than 7) vs my life years, could I even CONSIDER it, and IDK what I would do.
Flip a coin and see if I could shoot it out of the air? If I could I am definitely a hidden, even from my self mafia social worker and like, the dog dies, but it will be under mysterious circumstances like EVEN from myself. Heh.
Although that dog spent 2 years in the desert LIVING alone. He is a worthy adversary. Even my mom was like, "Yeah, I am betting on the dog."
I was like, 'Thanks a lot, Mom!"
She was like, "Oh come on, now you are on the right meds we know you have a soft, gooey center."
I was like, "I am not QUITE sure how to be insulted by that, exactly, but rest assured that I am indeed INSULTED."
LOL.

House sold 25K above asking price which was already hefty. I am really doing this. In celebration of this fact, the husband and I are taking a day to do absolutely NOTHING.
Dog still here, not in Mafia I guess. Oh well you can't have everything.
Also we still gotta go through the horrific mortgage process not just once, but twice.

At my baby shower with the first husband, one of his pals gave me a book called, "My daddy went to prison." It was useful not so much with my kids but later on. Pretty realistic. Ends on a sad note. "Now, it is time to go. I may go home. But daddy must stay.'
Despite resentfully not drinking I was still sort of in a lifestyle where you did not have "an event" without there being refereshing beverages and by that I mean 80 proof, well at least WINE. But it doesn't really matter. The woman organizing it wanted the names of ALL people I knew. Despite thinking "Oh dear God this is a REALLY bad idea....." I did it.
I had the kind of baby shower you cannot describe accurately to anyone who has not experienced the same thing. Suffice it to say the heavily pregnant me at work the next day spent HALF the day crying until my boss said sharply, "Okay so stuff happened. You are at work." LOL it was useful actually that kind of crying is just terrible.
I did meet, in AA one time, a woman who had almost an identical baby shower to me. We both said, "OH My GOD I never thought I would meet someone that could equal it!!!!!!!!" LOLOL.
We only met a few times but we were bonded for life.
Baby showers and alcohol don't mix. Yeah, you would think writing out that sentence would be unnecessary. But write it I AM DOING. If it saves ONE person from the kind of baby shower I had I would type it out a THOUSAND times.

No booze with the baby shower. Baby showers suck enough without them. They are a sick and terrible thing that I would neve wish on anyone. NO I did not enjoy sitting under the umbrella opening gifts, especially pretending to be thrilled with my dang KID's FIRST BOOK.
I always gift "Goodnight moon." it's creepy but you can't go wrong as it is also BORING.

Cooler or insulated enclosed space + nicotine + dry ice = frozen things stay frozen, no need for power source.
No more prone to breakage in a cooler than in anything else you transport them in.
Those 12v refrigerators will zap a car battery in a short time without the engine running, those capable of freezing temps, a few minutes.
Just me, I'd rather buy dry ice, maybe wrap a towel or an old T shirt around the bottles if worried about breaking than to ask for jump starts or buy a car battery or two on the way.
We decided on a truck thank GOD. So I think I am back to my original plan of icing it and parking it near the back of the truck and checking it.
