Time Away

For the first time since we have been married my husband and I spent more then a night apart. It was diffinetly differnt but purhaps the thing that was the most different was I was dog sitting. Three dogs. Two smaller and one quite large lab huskie mix. I have been with the dogs alone but bringing them together has been an intersting experience. The three dogs all have very different personalities and seem to all become very competitive for attention since being together. They can totally ignore me until one of the other dogs seems interested or I pay attention to any other dog or even person. Even a glance is reason for one of them to nip at or growl. Why have I never seen dogs need for attention, and also that dogs can have so much of an individual personality? My eyes have been opened to how well dogs can read humans and also that they really could be a great companion for "man". Dogs really are man's best friend.

Girl Pants

In a marraige it is said, what's mine is yours and what's yours is mine. How far does this go? Saturday was a t-shirt day and my husband had recently decided that his brown cocoa puffs shirt just wasn't making the cut any more. So it ended up in my drawer. I wore it all day and had few coments except for the fact that cocoa is a weird word and why is it spelled that way. Later in the afternoon we were invited to a marshmallow roast. My husband decided to put on some jeans however all but one pair, which was dirty, had holes in them. Sadly he isn't to far from my size actually he fits into pants espeacially those that are long. So he put on the least feminine pair which really with today's fashions did not look odd on himm at all. Upon arriving nothing was mentioned about either of our outfits. However not long after my cousin arrived she noticed. The pockets had no decorations, and by this point he had rolled the bottom because it was so hot. How could she tell? The stratigically placed fadding. I guess if he is going to wear my jeans all I have to do is dye them dark blue and he'll be fine.
