That's less than an hour a day because he goes in the bathroom at night. I think she posted about the problems she was having during the day and not that it was all day just the problems in the day.

I'm going to try and further explain where on earth I am coming from. If I'm in high school and having a problem in a math class and I ask for help. I will tell you the problem that I'm having in the math class. Let's just say, I'm failing. High school kids have 5 or more classes in a day, right? Because I'm failing math does that mean I'm a horrible student? No. Does it mean I don't care about math? No. Does it mean I should get rid of the math class (lol)? No. It means I need help in math. I may very well be getting great grades in the other classes but for whatever reason I'm doing poorly in math. So, I go to get help from a tutor for math. It should be a good thing. Shows I care and want to do better. Anyone following me....Please say yes........Okay, let me go a little further. Victoria, on Animal Planet, many of us watch her. Right? She comes into many situations that aren't the best. I'll use the guy with two rescue dogs, one was a Pit mix, both dogs ruined his apartment every time he stepped out. He worked with rescues for free and did care a great deal about them but he broke down and cried because he couldn't take it anymore and was thinking about getting rid of them. Because he didn't care? No. He cried his eyes out on National TV. He cared a great deal. He works with rescues. He cares. Is he a stinky rescue rescuer? No. He needed help. Victoria comes into many loving homes to help those having problems and I feel as though they care a great deal but don't know what to do. That's why she helps them. People do the strangest things on that show because they clearly do not know what they are doing...lol!


Hopefully, I didn't just entertain myself....again...lol!

Yes Yes This is a wonderful post. You explained just how I was feeling .
