A house full of relatives, and an ice storm, fun,fun!! My neice brought her pug puppy, what a cutie. I have been debating getting a puppy. When Oscar died having Jaz really helped. Now she's getting up there in age and I don't want to be left alone. The debate is do I get a puppy, or adopted something from the pound ect. I want something that can be around kids, which Jaz can't. Do I want to housebreak a dog, ect?? I guess it's like being around babies and you think, oh I want another. Playing with it I had forgotten how whiny pups are and how sharp their teeth are, but I miss that stuff. I have only had one puppy, I have always taken grown dogs with issues. I am one of those spay and neuter freaks who hate all the dog breeding, and see all the unwanted pets out there. Everyone likes babies, but not often the adults they become. I keep saying how much I want to change, but do I really?? It's harder to be positive, and look on the bright side. I feel like Ray off Everyone Love Raymond, it just doesn't feel natural. It is so much easier to be negative, depressed, and wallow in self pity. Poor me, everything is unfair! It's hard to take responsibility for my actions and life, and easy to blame everyone else (Mom, husband, co-workers, ect) for all my issues. Dispite this I do want to change it, and am taking baby steps to do it.
