You might remember in February I blogged about the loss of my beloved dog Blitzen. He died quickly, which we were grateful for. We miss him very much and its been more difficult than I thought to get used to such a quiet house.
Looks like that silence won’t last….last week my friend had 8 puppies born, 1 of which is earmarked for us, should we decide to become dog owners again. And…..based on my husband’s excitement, I don’t think I have a choice!
I’m kidding of course. I can’t wait to get a new puppy. As Charles Shultz (creator of Peanuts) always said. “Happiness is a warm puppy”
These pictures are from Day 2, and as you can see, and imagine, Mom looks pretty tired!
So I guess I have only 9 more weeks of a silent household to contend with before the little patter of tiny feet takes over and the perils of puppy training begins. It will all be worth it though…there is nothing better for a road warrior than to be welcomed home by the loving lick of a dog!
It was dark when I woke. This is a ray of sunhsnie.
