Temporary Insanity

So other than I really must have been insane, the 12 reasons to not have dogs is
1. Maggie likes them from a distance or in a cage.
2. Leona, our cat, does not like ANY other animals.
3. Double the vet bills.
4. Vet bills at all, we have one income, dumb idea.
5. I have enough on my platter of stuff to do.
6. I'm a lazy pet owner, I admit it.
7. It's going to be winter...
8. Cleaning up dog pee in the living room and trying to keep Maggie out of the way was not the easiest thing ever.
9. Aj was like 80% not on board and 20& sorta on board with getting the dogs.
10. I was 80% excited and 20% nervous, never 100%!
11. Deciding to not get the dogs, was not a conversation about dogs, it was a much deeper conversation about communication between a man and his wife.
12. I don't want to clean up dog poop in the back yard.

Anywho, a good conversation came about because of the dogs, but that is between me and my husband. We have communication difficulties. He never wants to deny me of anything....the jist...we don't have two dogs and we won't ever speak of getting a dog until maybe and this is a big maybe, we have two kids that are like 10 and 12...even then, I want my low maintenance kitties. Apparently I'm not a dog person like I thought, you can't be a lazy pet owner and have a dog! Hello. Cats, now that's it. Leona is fat, lazy and pretty ok with laying around and playing with Maggie when Maggie says so:) Leona is really good with Maggie surprisingly. Maggie can just about sit on her and Leona will just move or roll away...Why did I want to mess up this little family that was comfy? Temporary Insanity. It happens.
