I did a thing and have no one to share it with.

I was stationed in a new city far away from my family and friends. The past eight months have been extremely stressful. I slowly started to feel myself break down and fall into a auto-pilot depression. My dog passed away in May (http://i.imgur.com/jwkJLIf.jpg), the person who I thought we had something special turned me down in July, and I've gained about five pounds over these couple of months due to stress and not eating that great. So, after crying a bunch, I took action and applied to volunteer at the SPCA in the county.

I had a successful volunteer interview and I will start my four hour training tomorrow. After that I can, with a minimum commitment of 3-4 hours a week, make my own schedule to come in and care for the adoptable dogs and cats.

I got to pet puppies this morning. PUPPIES.

Dude that's amazing, Congratulations

Volunteering is actually highly encouraged. There is a sign up board with upcoming events in the commander's hallway.
