Goodbye old friend. Hootie: 1997-2009
I'll never forget the day I first saw him. We were driving home from Golden and Kathy said "Why don't you go this way?" We headed down a street I had never been on and found ourselves driving by a little strip mall. Then Kathy says "Turn in here a minute." Now my spidey senses are on alert, and sure enough, we wind up parking in front of a pet store. Kathy had been out in Golden a couple of days before and had found Hootie sitting in a cage looking so lonely. When we walked in, there was a sad little puppy up high in his own cage, with a sign that had 2 different prices crossed out and the third was pretty low. He had been taken and then returned to the pet store. I knew right then that we were heading home with another dog, I had been suckered! I still wasn't quite over the loss of our Golden Retriever, but I never do seem to get over the loss of a pet.

The post you probably shouldn't even read
A couple of weeks ago I was going to write a post venting away at some shit that has been bothering me, but decided not to.

On top of the Cerebral Palsy and Sensory issues, he seems to be hell bent on doing self stimulating activities with his computer and DVDs that get him wound up and over the top excited. ...

ReplyDeleteHave you learned your lesson well?
ReplyDeleteSorry, can't relate. I always told my wives: "It's my way, or the highway, sweetie!".
ReplyDeleteWell, they always chose the highway. Not that I minded, of course...
I'm fond of saying, "you know, if I'm not doing this to your sassy-faction, YOU can always SHOW me how to do it..."
ReplyDeleteof course, I'm a slow learner and may need repeated demonstrations.
yeah ... my theory is ... you don't like the way i do it ... you do it ... i'm gonna go find something else more fun to do!!
ReplyDeleteI'd show that to my wife but she'd slap me.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! This one really hit home. After 40 years of marriage, I have finally learned to keep my mouth shut and let my hubby do things his way. Very liberating for both of us! He cleans! He cooks! Woo Hoo!!
ReplyDelete"You just don't understand him like I do." Yeah, I heard that one from my ex.
