Her mother had tied rags around her shoulder while a black and white terrier mix was beside her. When Rose looked up, Jeannette panicked and thought her mother would see her and shout her name and that someone from the party would spot them together. Jeannette immediately turned her taxi around and went home.

Opal was in a grocery store looking for ingredients for making her own pasta, when all of a sudden the grocery store manager was running around saying “Somebody help,stop the dog!” For a few seconds Opal saw no dog.

Trent James was sitting on his bed reading a book. “Trent! Go buy a loaf of bread and a jug of milk.” “Here’s $.50 to get you and your sister some candy.” Trent went to his cooking mother and got the money, then left for the grocery store. Trent was walking down to the local supermarket, which was one block from his house when he heard a squealing animal. It was near, yet distant. He looked over to the playground and started walking to it. He heard the crying sound again. He looked under the slide and saw a puppy crying. He scooped it up and looked for a collar. He didn’t see one. Trent then carried the dog home. “Mom. I found a dog”, Trent said. “A dog?”,Trent’s Mom said. “Yes, a dog.”,Trent said again.

“Oh, there you are” her mother would reply Jordan would giggle, then run back out the back door with no shoes on. For a few days Jordan came inside the house limping on one foot, crying to her mother, “Mommy, I got cactus stuck in my foot” her mother would sit there with tweezers, pulling out each spine from the heel of her foot Jordan flinching each time she yanked one out. As soon as her mother was done, she'd look at her mother thankful she could help her, but still a tear still rolled down her face onto the floor from the surging pain now in her foot. Her mother would look at her in the eyes and repeat “You better learn how to wear your shoes” Jordan would nod, then limp off to her room to take a nap. One day, Jordan opened her eyes, she looked out the door and found her mother to be in the yard digging up cactus in the yard. Jordan made sure to put on some shoes and ran outside hiding around the corner of the house. Her mother saw her peeking around the corner of her house and said “Jordan, do you want to come help me?” Jordan smiled disappearing back around the house. She ran around the other side of the house trying to make her mother to jump. Kristina would giggle and say “Get over here you little turd” Jordan would run up to her mother, hug her, then look up at her saying “I love you mom” as her mother looked down

She was really scared and tried avoiding any loud noises because she did not want to alarm the dog. After getting tired of being barked at, Cindy told her mom about the sticky situation and her mom responded saying that it is the dog's nature of barking at people, and if she wants to avoid it she would have to become friends with it. “Friends? With the dog?” Questioned Cindy. Never would she have thought that she would have to be nice to a dog that seemed so scary and mean. “Ok fine I’ll see if I could pet it tomorrow..”

It was a warm summer evening, Crate was laying down while John was working on his work project. Crate felt different, she felt ill. Her stomach hurt...a lot. “What’s wrong honey?” “I think, I think..” “You think what?” “I think my water just broke!”. He immediately shoved her into the car and drove her to the hospital. When they got there it was almost too late. She was in labor for hours. John had gotten so worried that he broke into her room and held her hand. “Why are you here?” Crate asked, “Did you hear what the doctor said?”. “No,” John said as he went towards her bed “What did he say?” Crate thought about if she should tell him the truth or not, it was too risky but, she had made her decision. “The baby~~~She’s not going to make it..”.

Question 1How did I feel when I read this book? I felt happy but worried. When I read that Tanya Rider lived through the car crash it made me very happy to see that an innocent person did not die. And that she could go on to live the rest of her life. I was also happy about the technology evolving and it is more helpful. Without the technology Tanya Rider would have died and her husband in prison. With technology evolving there is a lot to be happy about, but there is also the risk of a lot of new stuff and risks appearing. With the evolving technology the risk of your personal info being leaked is higher than before. When your personal info gets hacked and stolen there is even more problems that could arise like you bank account

Major depressive disorder causes people to think irrational because their mind is always sad or thinking about how they could do things differently. Depression is caused by something that happened or stressing over something and the depression is there long after the event or stressor has left. Suicide often happens to those that are depressed because the people have feelings of how they would be better off not living and they no longer want to suffer and feel the pain of being a disappointment by letting their loved ones down. Suicide at the time seems like the right answer at the time but if they really thought of the effect it would probably think about it before doing it. Seeking help for depression may seem like it would not help but

I can say throughout my youth I was raised on the belief that men are the providers and women are the nurturers of the family which was my understanding of symbolic interactionism of a happy marriage at that time. Nevertheless, as I continued to get older I found my newly divorced mother trying to pull both ends of the spectrum as a provider and nurturer. Furthermore, with the influencing values that were taught to me in my youth I felt as the oldest child I should step up to take the role as a provider while finishing high school. However, my mother felt that she alone could burden the weight of being a single parent. Regardless of our structural-functional beliefs, I came to an agreement with my mother that I would cut both her duties as

Billy runs to his Treehouse and closes the door and runs over to the dog and sits. “Look doggie I’m not going to hurt you I’m going to fix your paw…. well try to.” As he reaches for her paw the dog starts to growl, “hold on I’m not going to hurt you I promise,” Billy said. Billy takes a ice cube out of the bag and rubs the cube around the infected and hurt paw, then he takes out the bandage and wraps it around the swollen, infected, and hurt paw. “See I told you it wouldn’t hurt,” Billy said as he smiled at the dog. The dog looks up at Billy and gazes into his eyes and smiles back and winks. “Aww your a good dog aren’t you girl?” Billy said. Billy gets up and walks to the door and thinks “I will find a way for her to stay,”. He walks back into

Billy laid down and fell asleep a short time after. When he awoke, the Landlady had already put his egg on the bedside table. It looked as though she had just made it because there was steam still rolling from it. He rose from his bed and jumped in surprise. The little dashchund that had been in the lobby the night before, was now on the bottom of his bed. Billy kicked it, and the dog went flying across the room, hitting the wall and landing perfectly in the floor. All of a sudden the Landlady burst through the door. "What have you done to my poor baby?" she asked in a loud, angry voice while running to the corner of the room. "That thing scared the snot out of me, Miss. If it is stuffed, how in the world did it get in my bed?" he asked calmly. "I

On her little walk she spotted a cute boy standing at the concession stand, so she walked his direction and because she was trying so hard to get noticed she didn’t notice the stick she was about to trip over. She went tumbling down right in front of the cute boy! She felt so embarrassed, until he came running to her side to help her up. She thanked him, as he wipes the sand off of her arms and hands. They exchanged names, and
