Errand marathon — pace yourself
Four stops in one afternoon. Pearl needed a water break in the car between. Don't push too hard.

Two stops only. Pearl did better than I did honestly.
Badge swipe floor and elevator manners. Coworkers finally stopped asking if the team is real.
Does anyone else struggle with overheating when the vest goes under a coat?
Property manager wanted both. Having the live verify page ready made it painless.
Inspector asked for verification — linked verify and moved on.
Forty minute wait. Pearl on the mat the whole time. Receptionist was kind and didn't interrupt.
Lurked for months, posting now. You all helped me feel less alone in this process.
Early walks, shaded breaks, extra water. Pearl overheats faster than I expect.
