    babayaga67 got a reaction from Wildbreeze in Hello Again!   
    Hello!
    I feel like it has been 3 years since I was on here. Guess what? I made my last appearance barely a year ago. That just blows my mind. My life has been absolute chaos since I last stopped by. Everything is settling down again and I realized how much I miss you guys. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. 
    Sincerely,
    Babayaga
     
    Edit : Just checked my stocks. My SMUG increase was 3,260%  good day 🙂

    babayaga67 reacted to Mouseykins in Call Me Crazy But...   
    Some of you may be aware that my family lost our beautiful Mouse, a 12-year-old Jack Russell Terrier, almost two months ago. She had Cushing's Disease as a result of a tumor on her adrenal gland that turned out to be malignant and spread. She was diagnosed at 11 years old, in September 2018 we found out the devastating news that our sweet girl had limited time left. As the months passed by we were preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. We made sure every special family holiday was made extra special for Mouse. Easter was the last holiday she spent with us. Our family is still grieving her loss and it will take a long time for us to work through the process. Mouse was more than just a pet, she was family!
    Because of the trauma to our middle child mostly and our other two children my husband and I discussed possibly needing to get another furry companion to help our girls overcome the trauma they witnessed. It's not something they will ever forget! Our middle child has been increasingly agitated to the point of hysterical tears by the smallest of things. I literally cannot leave the room without her hysterically freaking out. Before Mouse passed away, I could come and go as I pleased and she would only follow me around sometimes when she's bored. Lately she will stop whatever it is she's doing, including eating to trail after me. She misses that safety and security Mouse provided her and all of us. Our oldest has been increasingly frustrated with everything and not sleeping well. Our youngest, well she's only 2 so it's hard to know exactly where she's at in terms of her feelings.
    After searching and doing our homework on certain breeds we found one that would be highly suitable to our family. The temperament of the breed and it's protective nature without being aggressive is what got our attention. Another reason for getting a puppy so soon is my husband may need to go away for work depending on how things go with the company he currently works for. That's a long story in itself! Now if he has to go away, the kids and I will be left home alone for a lengthy time. So a dog would be ideal to offer that sense of security, protection and peace of mind while he's away.
    We picked up this handsome little guy yesterday! He's a Great Pyranees and will be rather large compared to a small Jack Russel. With his size, people will think twice before messing with our place! A lot of people thought Mouse was a large dog because of the size and volume of her bark, but here she's just a small pup projecting herself as a big pup.
    Without further ado, here is our handsome fellow! He currently doesn't have a name. I'll update once we've chosen his name.

    He's a very smart boy! Already whining to go outside!
    When we went to look at the pups yesterday our youngest was interested in them but she was shy and kept her distance. She's been like that since losing Mouse. I was worried it would take her a long time to bond with her new pal. This was the only puppy that showed any real interest in her. He came up to her and sniffed the back of her jacket and her hand before she pulled away. The others were just not interested in the girls all that much. After being home for a while, our youngest still refused to pet him. She was talking to him and saying "Come on boy!" and showing an interest, but no pets. Not until he followed after her closely and licked the side of her face. He stayed close to her and she reached out to touch his soft fur. The beginnings of a wonderful bond have started!
    The other two girls have gone to sleep much easier and felt more relaxed at bedtime then they have in weeks. This little guy is going to help everyone heal. He is not a replacement for Mouse. He is just a new family member to be loved. We're not giving him any of Mouse's toys. The only things he has from Mouse is her newer pillow bed that she didn't really care to sleep on and her water and food bowls. The rest of Mouse's things will remain hers.

    babayaga67 got a reaction from Scoobert_Doo in Happy Jubjub Day!   
    I was hoping for more of a cotton candy look for the Jubjub, but I am pleased that they at least used two different types of candy to make him. I think that today was a great day for Jubjubs. That outfit makes me want a Jubjub almost enough to find one to adopt, but I am not ready for another pet right now. I am bookmarking that outfit for future consideration. 
    So they can make glove looking shoes for the Jubjub, but we still have to pretend that two normal looking shoes magically turn into one sock for a Hissi? Neopet logic is beyond me.

    Basically I'm just THRILLED with myself for even thinking of this, hence my feeling the need to make a thread about it, lol. But it's a legit thing to do if they DO open the Perks Shop today... IF.
      It's also a matter of when that's likely to happen, if TNT does stuff early afternoon for them, that's bed-time for me.

    I finally got a FFQ! I was able to get my Mutant Poogle for the price of one red morphing potion! That's 4,500 vs 7,000,000 (last time I checked).
    Yesterday @Granny63020 gave me a portal for my dream pet, and today I got the little demon :)
    My problem is that I can't customize anything. I also can't see maps. I had to Google "neopets rainbow fountain" to get a direct link to it. It has been a long time since I have used the actual maps on the main site. TDN has all of the links that I need. Now I want to customize my pets and I realized that I really can't. There is just a big white space. None of the gray squares, or any other colored square. I would say it's a lonely snowman, but for all I know it could be a massive herd of angry snowmen getting ready to attack Zygon style. All I see is whatever border I chosen with a bunch of white in the middle.

I am curious if it possible though. I would like to get around to personalizing my Gallery one day, and setting up different themes would be cool. 
    I thought that it would be very sad to be lost into the oblivion of TDN forums with absolutely zero responses. I wanted to let you know that someone cares, even if they can't help.
