If they only knew..

I wish my dogs knew how much I love them. How much we give up for them. How I would do just about anything for them. I wish that they could get along for me. Thats all I want. To go back to the days of us lounging together on the couch and going for car rides to the park.
 Instead, I am stuck being scared of being around them at the same time. They each tethered to a couch, when I am not shuffling them around for potty breaks. They haven't been able to have the zoomies with each other. I wish they knew how much I miss that.
I want to know what I did to fail them. I want to make it better. I want to be able to love my dogs again. I wish they knew that I hate how they have to be seperated. I hope they know that I am doing all of this for them.

It's starting to look a lot like CHRISTMAS?!

Seriously.. Already? I feel like we JUST opened up presents and packed up the tree. How is it almost time for black friday shopping, present wrapping, tree decorating, cookie baking and lots and lots of food? It just does not seem real!! Lets not forget the one thing I always forget- Christmas cards!! 

I really do aim to be one of those perky little do-it-all wives, but lets get real here. I am lucky I get myself out of bed in the morning and dressed in something remotely decent and to class on time. Tack on work in the afternoon, dogs that need attention, a husband who wants dinner and my insane need to want to make 90% of our christmas presents this year...

Then I remembered, SHUTTERFLY!! I love that company! I did my wedding albums on there and they turned out great! So maybe if I can manage to get a few pictures taken of myself (that I can actually stand), I will actually get around to making some. Maybe my 25th christmas is the one that I will get it all right..

They are making it even easier on you now, if you have kids (or dogs in my case) you can pack them down to the local mall and have your pictures taken there. For around $30 you can have a few pictures, and a CD that you can upload to Shutterfly to use on your Christmas cards.. and- here is the best part- they are even throwing in a gift card to Shutterfly. I mean, if I don't get it right this year, well, I am just never going to get it..
