The Boy and His Father
The boy had many friends as he grew up, some he still talked to and some he did not. He had moved many times but now he was a man and he felt he had moved for the last time. He had met a girl and she was the one, he was sure. She had been with him when times were bad and even though they argued he still loved her more than life.

Benefits of a Live In Nanny
If you live a hectic life and have a young child, you should seriously consider hiring a live in nanny. They help relieve you of any duties concerning child care and live in your homes, which is very convenient so you don't need to worry about childcare mishaps occurring while you're at work or being crammed with chores. The nanny will be at your disposal on a daily basis and will often be around whenever you need them since they are living with you.

What Is the Feminist Movement?
Traversing as far back as the 19th century, though not gaining true prominence until the 1970s, the feminist movement in its entirety spans across a great deal of history, and shares its roots within many other ranging political and social outcries, specifically Civil Rights. Debates wrought by the movement also have a variety of considerations, never specifically falling on one holistic issue, but more or less arguing them all first and foremost under one pretext: the importance of the woman.

Life With Shelby: Part 1
Since I was a child, there has always been a part of my heart dedicated to animals. Its a part that can't possibly be filled by anything else. Growing up, there were rarely any pet-free days. When there were, my parents were dealing with endless pleas for all types of critters. In my adult life I have only permanently acquired one animal: a cat called Connor. His entire body fit in my hands, as the spindly little runt of the litter. When I met him, I was visiting my uncle's farm prior to his funeral. Connor is the only thing I have from my uncle now, and the kitten was named for him as well. He has gone through many stages of life with me, and he has become my heart and soul. I am not a diehard cat person, but this one particular cat is a permanent part of me. I am also a practicing falconer, and keep hawks six months out of the year. The individual birds will not be permanent, but the entirety of my identity will always be defined by falconry and the birds will always have a role in my life. I currently have two extra cats; both came to me with identical sicknesses a year and a half apart. Minnie was the first, a little female that has failed to grow beyond 'kitten-collar' size. She has been with me for a long time and I love her truly; however, she still needs to find that one place where she belongs. The second is a male called Kirby. He has only been here for two months, and will likely be on his way before he reaches a third. Only a week or so prior to him, I had rehomed another kitten that I had plucked out of the highway's centerline, in the middle of heavy traffic.

#MeToo
I don't think that my story is unique in any way what so ever. Every day on the bus I have to put my head phones in to avoid getting hit on by old men who reek of vodka. If they do catch me with my headphones out, I have to say I'm not interested, or if that doesn't work, that I am a lesbian.

Omar's Diary for the Weekend of October 28th & 29th 2017
I was aware of some kafuffle at the front door of Omar Towers just before seven on Friday evening. Being very reserved, some would say ‘snobby’, I withheld my curiosity about what was going on downstairs and stayed upstairs in my own room that I do let the servants share with me. Eventually I ventured downstairs and could hear some heavy breathing interspersed with comments from my own servants along the lines of ‘God that is hard’, ‘No, that hurts too much…..I’m going to have to stop there’. I hesitated at the door into the sitting room where these sounds and comments were emanating from rapidly forming images in my mind. Curiosity won the battle with procrastination and I boldly walked in. My servants were being visited by a personal trainer servant who was putting them through their, if I may say so, very limited paces.

Why Rabbits Make Fantastic Pets
First off, most people think rabbits are just outdoor pets, living in hutches and stroked maybe once or twice a day with playtime in runs when the weathers nice. This could not be further from the truth. Rabbits make fantastic pets, and they can live in the home and can be taught to use a litter box just like a kitten would be taught, although some bunny-proofing will need doing to avoid any much-loved items (or phone chargers) getting chewed to bits! They are intelligent and can grow to be very affectionate. They just need a little time to get to know their owner.

Tinky The Tiny Ferret
Hello there! I am here to tell you the many stories of Tinky's life. Tinky is approximately 1-year-old, and is a small ferret who has the energy of a thousand horses. She is my first ferret, and basically going into ownership with little to no experience in owning a ferret, I'm not entirely sure what I am to expect. Basically, this will be a log/story of the experiences gained by owning Tinky. So let's begin...
