Sleeping alone isn't so bad, the dog does a good job of keeping me warm since she refuses to sleep on her own bed. The weather here is freezing again today, so I get yet another snow day from work. Marley just wants to go play in it and chase stuff, I just want to stay warm.
It's funny, when we fight poor Marley cowers in the corner like a scared kid might if their parents fight. This is our one thing we have together, the one thing we really love regardless of our own bitter feelings toward one another. Which leads me to this problem: where does the dog go.....does she stay with me or go with him? I'm the one who takes responsibility to take care of her, he likes to play with her. If it were a kid she'd be dead from him forgetting to feed or water her.
His work called this morning and asked if he was coming in. What I wanted to say was, "Don't much care, I'm not his mother. Fire him if you want." But what I said was I don't know, I just got up. Since he didn't stay here last night I really don't know if he's going to work, he pretended to be clandestine and snuck out last night and got picked up by "somebody." I'm sure he was trying to make me crazy wondering who picked him up and where he was going. But what it really did was please me to no end so I could have my house to myself again, whew.
I like having time to myself because I'm quite sure that I can keep myself better company than anyone else. That and I'm getting a load of work on my national boards done, finally! Having peace in this house, both physical and mental, is doing me good, it just took a little longer than it should have.
