I'm holding an intervention for myself, I have not been taking care of my animals like I need to be. I never though I would neglect them as much as I have, and I have come to a crossroads... at what point do I say i can no longer care for these animals and find new homes for them...

I really do not want it to come to that as I love keeping snakes, but I realize that if this continues I cannot in good conscience keep them myself...

I think I have a fair compromise; I will give myself a month from today, and if I cant get my head out of my ass and care for them like they need (like i used to do),I will do the right thing and find some one who can... or WILL I should say.

The reason I am giving myself one last chance is because I know I am able, I have the knowledge, I have just been neglecting it with no excuse.

I have beat myself up over this quite a bit now but still think I should hear it from some of you guys as well so don't hold back let me have it. Not only that but maybe you all could help keep me accountable, I used to be in this forum a few times a day and I think that alone helped keep me motivated, and I need that again now.

sorry to disappoint everyone myself included
