The joy of doing just enough : the secret art of being lazy and getting away with it / by McCartney, Jennifer,1980-author.(CARDINAL)411066;
Sit around, leave sh*t all over the place, drink, forget about deadlines . . . being lazy is pretty easy. The real art in being chill is when someone without any real ambition can fly under the radar, and live unscathed by the never-ending reams of self-help and inspiration rained upon anyone who just wants to watch Netflix. The magical place where doing what comes naturally keeps the do-ers at arm's length. Rather than doing less, do just enough. So screw TED Talks, Instagram images of a beach that say "Fail Better" in gold cursive, marathon training, tips for keeping plants alive, and all self-aggrandizing social media. Ninety-nine percent of people on this planet are just pretty average. We're doing our thing. Trying to get out of bed in the morning. Hey, are you awake right now? Reading a sentence? You know what? That's success in my book. Being a person is hard enough without all the pressure to be good at it.

I. Dogs and cats reign. The dog with no teeth ; Pussycat, pussycat ; Them ; Mr. Grey ; He's never done that before ; Hey, you forgot something ; The maze ; A dusting off ; Gunshots in the south ; Houses on the river -- Part II. Bats, rats, and lizards, oh my. Mr. Black ; Ratty yes, batty no ; Freddy and friends ; Monster at the end of the hall ; Three little pigs -- III. Transitions. The wailing ; Atlantis ; Cindy in heaven ; Olympic rings ; The passage home ; Bad dog--good dog -- IV. Healing arts. Stork angels ; What's wrong, doc?"It's all fun and games until somebody ends up in a cone. Physicians used to make house calls. Today, a few veterinarians still do. Duncan MacVean, DVM, is one such vet. His patients range from cats and dogs to pigs and lizards--each of them a unique personality. Every animal and every home is different, but every owner is the same in their affection for their companions. The hilarious and the heartbreaking come together in this collection of true tales, all gathered from his lifelong career. Without warning, MacVean finds himself in odd situations: stepping into a basement full of free-flying bats or struck speechless by a pig who loves opera so much that she falls into a trance. On another house call, a woman with terminal cancer earnestly wants to know where pets go when they pass away--will her beloved cat and dog join her in the afterlife? Navigating the finer elements of human and animal interaction isn't easy. In My Patients Like Treats, MacVean's dedication to the animals of this earth and compassion for their human caretakers drives him onward, from house to house, from patient to patient. This entertaining collection of stories brings readers along for the ride, getting to know the curious creatures he treats and their perhaps sometimes even more curious humans. My Patients Like Treats is the perfect book for animal lovers or those who simply appreciate a good story"--Dust jacket flap.
