Meet Snoopy! This handsome pup is the star of this week’s Adorable Adoptables and he is ready to win hearts.

So, a few days ago I was setting up a trampoline net for the girls, so all three of them could safely jump. The net said it fit 10/12/14/16 foot trampoline, so I figured great, it's a relatively universal one so that's awesome. I proceed to start setting it up, put a few things on backwards, got frustrated and fixed them. As the poles began going up, I started working to fix the net onto the poles, and it was not making sense. I kept doing different iterations, but nothing was working. So after over an hour of working at it, I stopped and went inside.

It's time for Twitter Tuesday - I find the best from the best just for you.

Tweets like this one, "People who ask questions on Twitter with improper grammar should be strictly prohibited."

This one, "Remember, if you're right, you don't need to shout. If you're wrong, you don't deserve to shout."

This friend says, "Today I'm wearing pink to raise awareness to those who don't separate reds from whites when washing."
