New Toys

I've been talking to a couple people about the prospect of them adopting Dahlia. I think we've got a good option in a high school friend of mine and her son, who lives in the basement of their house on Long Island. He's been looking for a dog, and she has a dog. But she'd be his dog, and have a built in playmate. 

I'm feeling conflicted and I knew this would happen. She's a lot but I kind of like her. I've grown semi-attached to her. I think she is REALLY good for Toffee. They play SO MUCH together and it is so fun. 

Doug thinks it is way too much and too raucous. But I don't know. There's a ton of joyful there. 

So I'm just kind of feeling down about her. I hate it. Anyway. 

Doug ordered a bunch of new dog toys. "indestructible" dog toys. One was decimated within 90 seconds. We hid the other 2 stuffies, just so they'll last a little bit. And there is a fish toy. Super hard plastic, super hard rubber with a squeaker inside. It is so hard I can't squeak it with my hands. Toffee and Dahlia can squeak it with their teeth. 

Powerful monsters that they are. 

Today was a busy day. I had a very early meeting with one of our project managers who lives in Romania. She is lovely and I really like her. So that was worth getting up and getting showered for. 

I had a meeting every half hour today, it seemed, There wasn't a giant 90 minute gap for me to take off to the gym or anything. And it got to be 6pm and I was still working on some emails. Dinner needed to be made and I just gave up on the idea of rallying to go. Strangely, my gym is crowded on Friday nights. So weird. 

So we had dinner, watched a show about restoring historic buildings in the UK called The Restoration Man. Very very interesting and at times very touching. 

Doug has started to plan a trip for us in June for our anniversary. Details to come, but I'm super excited to take a trip. 

Anyway. Here's a picture of the toys. And destruction.
