So, it’s been months since I’ve written a blog and after some reminders to write from some kind people I’m giving it a go again.
First off, David and I got a puppy! It was complete surprise to me! It all happened on September 9th and I was late coming home from work. David was texting me a bit more than usual about when I’d be home. Which I didn’t think was odd at the time but now I do. Anyway I walked up the front steps to our house and there was David standing at the doorway. I smiled and said Hi, but he just stood there smiling until I was closer. Then his smile grew larger and he said “Now I got you something today, but you can’t scream” Sarcastically I replied “What did you get me a puppy?” and with that David opened the door, and there she was! I’m not sure how he walked over to the other side of the room but for me the world just kind of stopped. David grabbed his cell phone and started filming me. To sum up the video it is just me saying “Is she mine?!" over and over and David "Yes she is" At one point I said “I think I’m going to throw up" (mind you, I’ve wanted a puppy for 6 years and David’s always said no)
That was 3 weeks ago and Bella (her name) is now 4 months old. She’s a golden retriever, and she’s potty trained, can fetch, sit and lay down. I’m one happy momma.
So that’s been a huge change on my life, the first 12 days it was just Bella and me. David went away two weekends in a row and worked nights all week. Of course he’d finally get me a puppy and then just leave us to fend for ourselves. FYI: The first day of having a puppy will be the best day of your life, and the first night will be the worst night of your life. She cried and cried in her crate and it just broke my heart, not to mention we didn’t sleep at all. Now she loves her crate so much, when I annoy her by trying to snuggle too much, she’ll get up and go in there to get away from me.

Anyway I gotta go cause it's dinner time for Ms. Bella and Me.
