so i’m finally doing it. I’ve been threatening to start a blog for…years? now…but especially the past few months. And then I got a puppy. And if you’ve ever had a puppy you might understand me, and if you haven’t, you’ll think I’m crazy. I know I would have, pre-September 27th…the day my world changed forever. And I realize if anyone with children is reading this you’re probably looking so far down on me I wouldn’t even be able to see you looking up from my meager sitting place. But the puppy changed my life. I’ve become a DOG person. I always thought I was allergic to dogs. And even if not, they’re dirty. So for the first week I washed my hands so many times and took so many showers my skin cracked. Turns out I’m not allergic to the pup. Just the crap he brings in. And the miracle of some pretty awesome drugs keep me from sneezing, wheezing, eyes swelling shut, esophagus swelling craziness. And that, my friends, is awesome. The fact that I can sit here on the couch with my sweet puppy sleeping next to me and I can bring him into bed to snuggle with my while my husband is in some big fluffy bed in a swank Vegas hotel…well I love it. And I’m not ashamed to say it. I love for my puppy to sleep in the bed with me. Who knew?
