That's a good bf you've got there, letting you get a new puppy and then take off right away
Chocolate labs are the best though. W has had two great Craigslist finds in a row now since we've been S, they're so sweet. I lost the puppy battle after 6 months with W, but when I gave in I thought a small dog would be easier. Boy was I wrong. Compared to a Jack Russell Terrier the choco labs are easy!

She's some kind of mutt (maybe a little pit bull? she's got some black spots on her tongue), but mostly choco lab. She's a sweetie, although she's got a chewing issue right now and a hole digging issue. Good personality though, and smart. She'll get there eventually. And, no more cat fights in my backyard! Yay!
Jack Russell's are such one person dogs. And so high energy. They are definitely a lot of work.
So, the trip was amazing. Took a billion photos. J/k, only like 500. Will sort through and get them on facebook sometime.
Had a belated Thanksgiving with my honey Saturday. Then dinner with my parents last night. Took the puppy over and introduced her. She likes my dad and brother, didn't even growl once (she's definitely a lot more hesitant with men and growls at about 75% of them).
Back at work today. It's a Monday.
Had someone back into me at a stop sign on my way to work this am. They were in front of me, put their car in reverse, backed into the front of my car, then put it in drive and took off. So I was late on my first day back at work. No serious damage though, and I'm okay. Just frustrated and distracted. Police report filed, got a partial license plate at least.
Got my new phone too. The screen on my old one died.
Now if I can just get the door of my car fixed and call my insurance company about the accident this am. I left my insurance info in my glovebox, so I can't do anything about it til tonight or tomorrow.
Hopefully my craziness for the holidays is over with now LOL.

I was thinking Chow as well, but I learned that some pit bulls also have black tongues. As well as a couple other breeds. She has none of the long fur, head shape (i.e. short nose), nor the short legs of a chow. She does have a head that could definitely be pit bull influenced though.
Either way, her paperwork says lab mix, so that is good for my homeowners insurance lol. Which reminds me, gotta let them know I have a dog now.

Sorry that happened to you. What a welcome home present!
I am not to happy with the edit button either. My thoughts get ahead of my fingers and I make silly little typos. I liked being able to go back and fix those...now my typing errors are hung up for everyone to see. LOL

Well, not feeling too stiff or sore today. Took a second look at my car in the light this am and still think that damage isn't too bad. Got my insurance info to call and received the e-mail with the police report attached.
Tossed and turned last night. Not sure if it was jet lag or just stress (combined with Roger insisting on sleeping on his back and snoring LOL) but it was about 1 before I finally got to sleep. I'm dragging today, but hopefully my drama is over for the rest of the year LOL.
