Jodie Sweetin responds to Miley Cyrus' old photo of her.

Recently, Miley Cyrus posted an old photo of actress Jodie Sweetin straddling a man during a wild night out. The man's face was blurred out, but Dave Coulier's face was edited onto it to appear as if Sweetin was straddling him.

What was Jodie Sweetin's response?
"I don’t pay attention to negative stuff. I have so much good stuff going on in my life right now that I try not to pay attention.”
She added that she doesn't think it's worth it for people to pay attention to negativity.

Miley Cyrus reacted to Jodie Sweetin's response, and it was pretty senseless.
"Current Mood #fullerhouse only you freaks take this as shaming! To me it looks like Stephanie is having a f**king gay ol time!"

My Two Cents:

You know, I had hopes that Miley Cyrus had straightened up after going back with Liam Hemsworth. Guess not.
What she said and did was beyond insulting. Yes, Jodie has a past that consisted of drug use. However, she sought help and she has been clean for FIVE YEARS. Making light of the time period in the photo is just petty and childish. In that photo is a beautiful young woman who was down the wrong path. Why bring that up, Miley? Why make light of it? What about your history? Is yours as white as snow? 

This story hit me hard because I am also in recovery. I was abusing alcohol for a long time, and I hit rock bottom last summer. I sought treatment in the fall, and have been sober ever since. If someone brought up a photo of me completely bombed, I wouldn't have been as classy as Jodie Sweetin. Her struggles should NOT be mocked. Her success in overcoming her obstacles should be celebrated. She is a terrific role model for teen girls and women who have gone through similar struggles.

Mocking someone's addiction, and/or chastising them for their addiction, is completely unacceptable.
I am not proud of my alcohol abuse, but I am proud to be nearly 6 months sober. I'm pretty sure Jodie Sweetin is proud to be 5 years clean.
All of us who have overcome the demon of addiction should be damn proud. Seriously, don't let people tell you otherwise. You are clean and sober. Celebrate that! Forget the haters!

Miley Cyrus, you need to grow up. Before you start pointing fingers and calling people out on their past struggles, make sure under your nails are clean.

*Note: Out of respect for Jodie Sweetin, and anyone who is in recovery, I am not sharing the photo in question. It can be triggering and I'm not putting anyone through that.*

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

Photo Credit: baltimorepostexaminer Gordon Ramsay's 'Kitchen Nightmares' is based on the UK show 'Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.' When the US version first aired, it was a success. We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%. Most of the restaurants featured earlier in the series have since closed. Here is a list of the restaurants that have closed: Bella Luna Mangia Mangia Kati Allo Old Neighborhood Restaurant Amy's Baking Company (YAY!)
