@the_cat_ranch In 2014, husband was driving for FedEx and chose Zouki for us from a litter of puppies on offer at a house on his route. Said she was the only one not barking & going bananas.

@theKatriarch I’m childless (on purpose) and work my butt off because that’s my personality. My most gallivanting-prone colleague has 2 kids but also a million other “reasons” to come in late and leave early.
